Windows Services will not start
by Guest Todd- 3 replies

I have a windows 2003 server that has Exchange running on it. Yesterday the server started to freeze and upon reboot it hung on applying personal settings. I restarted in safe mode and made sure that the APC service was disabled. System rebooted after about 3 hours. Once restarted IIS would not start and therefore exchange was not working. I ran msconfig and did a diagnostic start up and they system started relatively quickly. I then changed to normal startup and shut down the Server, upon restart none of the services would start, message is Configuration Manager: plug and play service or some other service is not running. The only service that is running …

server2003 hangs every day at 6am?
by Guest geek-y-guy- 0 replies

Hi All: I have a server2003 x64 std with sp2 server running SQL 2005 that hangs every day at 6am local time. The server's in a colo cabinet, and when it happens, I have some remote hands powercycle the server. When I log back into the server, I'm prompted with the "what caused the last unexpected shutdown?" screen and I select "system unresponsive". I thought it might have something to do with automatic updates, but automatic updates are disabled. The SQL server has scheduled events that run every hour, with nothing special occurring at this hour, and they all run without incident up until the freeze. There's nothing in the application or system logs (…

netbios alias
by Guest Ruud Boersma- 1 reply
- 163 views
Hi all, Did not know where to post this question, so i'm posting it in general. Following problem: Old server is migrated to new server. We need to maintain the old unc path like \\oldserver\share. This means the new server needs a second computername (netbios alias). Someone told me to create an DNS cname, but this does not work for netbios. So I found an article describing howto create an netbios alias (or multiple aliasses) using the registry editor. By creating a reg_sz OptionalNames in parameters in lanmanserver(hkey_local_machine/system/currentcontrolset/services/lanmanserver, i can succesfully create a second netbios id. I have to create an addit…

Server Rebooting
by Guest Woody140284- 2 replies

Hello, For some reason, on both of our DC's, when ever you choose to log off, the server reboots. I have made sure that it is definitely log off I am pressing and it also happens if one user is logged in and you log in with another user, forcing a log off. It also seems that it always happens when there is a reboot needed due to updates. This could be coincidental though. We are running Server 2003 Standard Edition Service Pack 2 on them both. Thanks Carl

Does anyone recognize these files?
by Guest Elaine F.- 3 replies
- 193 views
We have recently discovered the existence of some very strange files on 2 of our many Windows 2003 servers. The files contain no legible information, just many, many lines of short, random strings. Some of the files are actually empty. The files appeared at the root of the D: drive which makes me suspect some application other than Windows, however when we asked the vendor of the 1 app that is running on the servers, they claimed these files were not related. Our virus scanner did not pick up these files as being infected so I have to believe they are somehow legitimate. The naming convention of these files are similar to: s1us.8v s1us.48 s3mc.e2 s2…

windows w2k3 domain server - issue
by Guest jrj- 5 replies
- 248 views
Hello, I have added a new domain controller to my domain. It was setup as a file and print server. The users have no problem saving files and printing. However when a user tries to execute a program on a share which is located on another server the following message appears: Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have appropriate permission to access them. I do not have this problem from my other domain controller, so I figure it is a setting on the server. It not a firewall setting because I have turned off the fire to verify that. I just cannot find what needs to be changed. Does anyone have a idea?? jim

Is there a way in Windows 2003 Server to have an email sent out when a service stops? Such as print spooler or things like that. The server does also have Exchange on it if that helps. Thanks.
