User Migration from Win2k - W2k3 - disk quota
by Guest Andy- 3 replies
- 204 views
When I migrated users from Win2k -> W2k3, their disk quota setting is not copied over, it has been configured to the default disk quota setting. For example For folder \\server\data, disk quota default setting for all users is 100MB. But for managers is 1GB. After the migration, the managers, developers and IT department users disk quota setting has been configured to the default setting, which is 100MB. Any workaround? Andy

SSL 2.0 Vulernability
by Guest Andy W- 1 reply
- 154 views
Hello Everyone, Our servers were scanned for vulnerabilities. One thing that came up with web servers that had certificates on them was SSL V2 being enabled, which is a Vulnerability. KB 187498 was referenced to disable SSL V2. Seems straightforward enough except for one part. Below I've pasted the section where I get confused. "Microsoft Windows NT Server stores information about different security-enhanced channel protocols that Windows NT Server supports. This information is stored in the following registry key: HKey_Local_Machine\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders \SCHANNEL\Protocols Typically, this key contains the follow…

Two hours to boot up
by Guest Sam- 4 replies

Windows 2003 R2 domain controller is taking more than 2 hours to boot up. How should I troubleshoot? This was originally a W2K domain. I setup this 2003 server in same domain as DC & DNS, then GC. Moved 5 FSMO rules (KB 324801). Demote the old W2K server and removed it from network. Before transferring GC & FSMO, new 2003 server was booting up fine.

Insufficient privilege to remote shutdown a server
by Guest Alain H. Crispiels- 6 replies
- 270 views
Hello, A domain user (not an admin) from a WinXP machine has sometimes to restart a remote member server into the same domain. I've created a local group on that server with the remote shutdown right. The domain user is member of that local group. Now, from his WinXP, when he's executing the command "shutdown -r -f -m", he's receiving an error message : "insufficient privilege...". If, just for test, this domain user is also local admin of his WinXP machine, it's ok. How to permit him to execute this command without to be local admin ? Alain

I am trying to migrate to a new server using the a server migration tool. The problem I have run into is it will not see my d: drive. It sees the c: and f: drives no problem. Looking into this problem the disk management utility shows the drive as not having a file system and 100% free space although explorer shows there is 43gb used on this drive and it has been working fine otherwise. The probelm of it not showing up is also happening in the defrag utility that comes with windows. I ran the dmdiag utility and it shows the drive letter to device name properly, but does not show a mount point. The drive is a dynamic disk that works fine otherwise. Server…

Connecting to File Server
by Guest anthony@necrofiends.com- 1 reply

I set-up a new server on my network. It's primarily being used for storage. I joined it to the domain, so it's basically acting as a domain computer. When users try to access shared files, they're prompted for a username and password. They do that and they're denied access. If I set-up a local account for them on the server, it lets them access the shares. How do I make it so they're not prompted for a username or password?

Server 2003 - Restoring and event log
by Guest g.cross@care4free.net- 1 reply
- 169 views
Hi Is it possible to restore an event log - specifically security events.? I've read somewhere that this would require restoring the entire system state - but this is something I wouldn't want to do. I did save the log in .csv format (don't know why I did this) Is there any way of getting this back to .evt format - so that it could be opened in event viewer? Thanks

vssadmin.exe, vssvc.exe and KB940349
by Guest Andrey Nepomnyaschih- 0 replies

Hello, There's a little bit strange behavior of update KB940349 on Windows 2003 R2 x64. When I install this update, it removes vssadmin.exe, vssvc.exe (and several others) files from C:\WINDOWS\System32. When I remove this update, it restores the files back to C:\WINDOWS\System32. Does anyone know why there is such behavior? Kind Regards, Andrey Nepomnyaschih

Win2k AD Restore from Backup
by Guest soup_or_power@yahoo.com- 5 replies
- 264 views
I have asked this before in another thread with a deafening silence from the experts. I think as a computer user/administrator/programmer one gets frustrated to know that a certain backup cannot be restored because the manufacturer of the backup appliance has dictated so. I consider AD is a data repository. Like any database, one should be able to restore into this repository. I like the Opensource code for this reason alone. When I accidentally erased some database in mysql, I was able to restore the data from a backup. All I did was tar xvf in linux parlance. Nothing fantastic. However, with this AD for however long I have been in touch with the Sonicwall dumbo…
