Problem with roaming profiles
by Guest Gorge Lucas- 7 replies
- 557 views
Hi, I have a customer who has a roaming profile. This is setup excatly like all my other customers. What happens is the server goes offline for 1-3 seconds for no apparent reason and syncing occurs. When this happens, they lose all their icons on the desktop, quicklaunch etc. This is a SBS 2003 R2 server. There is nothing wrong with the server from what I can see. It's not going down at all. Any ideas?

Registry Problem WTS 2008
by Guest Ole Weigelt- 0 replies
- 244 views
Hi everybody, I have a strange problem: I have a Server2008 WTS environment. Sometimes it happens that I get messages like this: {Lost Delayed-Write Data} The system was attempting to transfer file data from Buffers to \Device\LanmanRedirector. The write operation failed, and only some of the data may have been written to the file (in German) Message ID 50 Last Word C000020C (Yes, I have posted that message before and got no answer...) Now, I have performed some tests. They showed that some registry keys seem to disappear. Am I correct that every user on a WTS should have a set of keys under HKEY_USERS? When the error occurs, it seems …

Which edition of Server 2003 x64?
by Guest Niall Connaughton- 7 replies
- 613 views
Hi, I'm going to ask a question you've probably seen a lot of, but my problem is that finding one source of information that is whole and consistent on this issue has been quite tricky. So I thought I'd ask here to see if I get some expert knowledge. It have to decide what version of Windows Server 2003 to install on a collection of servers, choosing from Standard or Enterprise editions, 32 or 64 bit. Our provider charges us roughly 3-4 times the price of Standard for installing and maintaining Enterprise edition. On the servers, we'll be running a service written in C# which uses some mixed managed/unmanaged C++ code. The machines have at least 8GB…

Event ID 4191 - TCP/IP error
by Guest Lajus Norvejikus- 0 replies
- 270 views
Hi all, Yesterday, I reverse one virtual machine on VirtualPC 2005, runing Windows 2003 Server R2, to a server machine. I used a legal Acronis to do that. I corrected all problems, except one Event ID 4191, with the following message: "IP could not open the registry key for adapter TCPIP\Parameters\Adapters \NDISWANIP. Interfaces on this adapter will not be initialized." I want to correct this because I enter the TCP/IP definitions, on Start > Control Panel > Network Connections > (my connection) > Properties, then select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) > Properties, and when I can back to the same window definitions the information I ent…

Ports to Open for certificate services
by Guest Greg- 4 replies
- 340 views
Hi, I am in the process of setting up a CA within my Active Directory. The enterprise CA will be in the same VLAN as the domain controllers and any other servers that wish to use the service. All workstations (and end users) reside in a different VLAN with a firewall between the two. Computer and user certificates will be issued to domain users and computers throughout the domain. I was wondering what network ports I needed to open in order for this to occur... is it the http port that it communicates on for this purpose? Thanks in advance. Greg

How to hide the Log Off button?
by Guest yaro137@googlemail.com- 4 replies
- 432 views
We have a server that needs to run with the administrator account logged in at all time because of some third-party software. For that reason I would like to get rid of the Log Off button. I tried adjusting the group policy for the server but it didn's work. Is there any other way, maybe some registry edit? Thanks yaro

How to move user profile from one domain to another
by Guest Mike- 5 replies
- 411 views
Hi Is it possible to move user profile from one domain to another? Our company users have WindowsXP workstations joined into Win2000 domain. Since we're in a plan of impelemnting new Win2008 domain environment (new DC servers with new user/computer accounts) I'm wondering what is the simpliest way to re-join computer from old domain to a new one so that users will still have their profiles. Yes I know we can simply put computer out of a domain and join them to a new one and log-on with a new user account, but then we need to move all settings and data from old user profile to a new one. Can this be done more automatically? Thank you in advance. Regards…

Server 2008 Drivers
by Guest Geoff Schaller- 0 replies
- 283 views
Has anyone had trouble with 64 bit drivers for ASUS or other motherboards for Server 2008? We are suffering disk controller errors (which show up as such in the event log) and then system freezes. We are using Quad Core CPUs with 8GB+ RAM and so we've had to use ASUS boards when normally, they wouldn't have been our first choice. Usually too flaky. The drives are just regular 10,000 RPM Sata drives but it also happens to 7200 RPM Seagates. What successful motherboard/CPU configurations are other folks using in 64 bit scenarios? Thanks, Geoff Schaller Software Objectives

Remote Desktop Issue
by Guest pvong- 4 replies
- 438 views
I have an application that I run on my desktop where it points to a Win2003 server. All the files for the application is sitting on the server. Everything works great. For some reason, when I remote desktop into my computer, I can not run this applications. I can run all the other applications thats residing on this server but not this one. The error message I'm getting is attached. The shared UNC for the server location has the proper permission set up so I can have access to the folder. Like I said, it works all other times except during Remote Desktop. Can someone give me some ideas on how I might fix this?

Using Windows Server Standard 2007 SP1. How can I PERMANENTLY map an FTP drive to a drive letter? I tried doing a Map Network Drive, but when I put ftp://ftp.myserver.com in the 'folder' it tells me that "Windows cannot access xxxxx".

I have what I thought would be a simple project that is stumping me at the moment. I was asked to create a simple login/out file to log when a user signs in and out of a machine. I set up the script shown here: echo %COMPUTERNAME%, %USERNAME%, %date%, %TIME%, Login >> \ \mopssrv01\MISData\MOPS-LOGONS.csv Simple one line bat file that I put in as a Login Script through GP. I have another one for Logout with just the word change at the end to tell me what they were doing. This is the output that I get in my CSV. Note the first and last one has the MON as part of the date. I have looked around and must be totally blind as I dont' see where I can change …

I am running the MAP Solution Accelerator to baseline a number of Server 2003 machines in terms of running them as VM's using Hyper-V on Server 2008. There is a rather intrusive status window having a cancel button showing the status. It is not minimizable. It appears that if I hit the cancel button, the assessment and logging stops altogether. Is that true? Since I plan on running this assessment for several weeks, isn't there a way to run this as a service so it persists between logon/logoff and server reboot cycles?

Some questions about batch files….. So, I have a batch file called batch1.bat. Within that batch file, I have 5 commands that kick off different reports from our ERP app.. I would like to be able to tell the batch file this: If it is 2am on Monday, kick off report 1, but don’t touch the others. If it is 3 am on Tuesday, kick off report 2, but don’t touch the others. If this is possible, how would i script this out?

Home folder issue in AD profile
by Guest steve grosz- 0 replies
- 190 views
Here's a weird issue, we're setting user home drives in ADUC as \\k2\home$\user.name For most people this is working fine, and shows up in XP as 'user.name on \k2\home$'. Now, I have one user who is having a issue. That location isn't getting mapped correctly. Their folder is there, but their computer just shows '\k2', no home$. We've removed the mapping from ADUC, and put it back in, let it confirm that the folder is there and tried again, same thing. Odd thing is, this seems to be happening on only 1 computer. If I use his profile info on another computer, it works fine! How can we fix this on his machine?

Vista-nating Server 2008

People, I'm experimenting with using Server 2008 as a workstation. What I'd like is to get the behaviour of the desktop the same as Vista. I've got the Desktop experience, Vista Theme and Areo Glass working. However Vista also animates window minimises and restores anyone know how I turn that on? I'm also missing the sidebar but I don't think that it is in server installs so that isn't going to be easy. -- Anthony Jones - MVP ASP/ASP.NET

W2k3 - clearing space in C:\

Can I safely remove any of the following (after backing up to D:\): C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles (689Mbyte) C:\WINDOWS\DriverCache (114Mbyte) Also, I note that the .mdb file in C:WINDOWS\ntfrs\jet is 200Mbyte. Can this database be reinitialised? Cant believe we need this much history in an isolated .local domain with 2 servers and 40 workstations, which does not use DFS for data file shares. -- Regards, Newell White
