Rejoin Server to a Different Workgroup
by Guest Diane Walker- 3 replies
- 307 views
We have a Windows 2003 server. The server is running IIS. The server joined the workgroup. We would like to join this server to a different workgroup. Will anything affect IIS if we join this server to a different workgroup? Does it affect the server in anyway if we join this server to a different workgroup. Thanks. Diane

DEP shuts down Microsoft MDB Store
by Guest Adam V.- 1 reply
- 206 views
I am running Exchange Server 2003 on a Windows Server 2003 machine. When I reboot the server, I get a Data Execution Prevention message that says "to help protect my computer, Windows has closed this program: Microsoft MDB Store" I went into the DEP settings and checked the box next to MDB Store, so that it would stop closing the program, however I'm still having a problem with Exchange in that the information store keeps shutting down. Any idea why the Data Execution Prevention tool would be shutting down the Microsoft MDB Store. It never did this before. Thanks for any help you can provide. Adam V.

I have instructions from Microsoft on how to fix an update problem. They tell me to rename my software distrubtion folder. But when I try to rename it, I get the message that it cannot be done because the folder may be in use or the disk is write protected. How to get around this? -- Steve

Mutliple Domains for Web and Email
by Guest celticmcse- 2 replies
- 241 views
I have never had to manage more than one domain in any version of Windows Server, so please forgive my ignorance... I have a client who wants to create multiple web domains with multiple corresponding email domains. e.g. abc.com 123.com xyz.net 789.net These are subsidiaries of the parent company. Each will have its own web site and employees will login remotely to OWA for email. If this can be done easilly using Windows Server, can you point me in the direction of the best docs? Also, why would I use Windows Server to do all this rather than a product like CPanel? http://www.cpanel.net/index.html Thanks in advance for your input!

Error Code 8: 0x8007000e Windows Product Activation
by Guest thrombotic@gmail.com- 7 replies
- 366 views
For the past week I started getting the following error. Event ID 1000 Error occurred while wizard was checking the current windows product license. Error Code: 8 0x8007000e. This server has been going strong for 4 years, it currently hosts our website. It has not lost functionality. I have noticed that the page file is up to 2.1 GB and winlogon.exe is running at 491mb. I'm worried that if I reboot the server, it will not be operational because it can't check the product license. We have a hosted web application that we cannot afford to go down for several days. Any thoughts, one way or the other whether I should just reboot? Thx RG

LSASS.exe Issues
by Guest Lee Croucher- 1 reply
- 171 views
When booting Windows 2003 just **BEFORE** the login screen you get the error.. LSASS.EXE: When trying to update a password the return status indicates that the value provided as the current password is not correct. I think this is related to the registry being corrupt however none of the support articles are for Server 2003, I have tried to follow the support articles but the server does not boot up if you follow the Windows XP guides... Any ideas....? Many thanks in advanced Lee Croucher

Shared Printer Driver
by Guest TVITBRIAN- 1 reply
- 192 views
Okay here's a run down of the situation. Got a Server 2003 domain. Got 3 servers, 2 are domain controllers. One of the domain controllers runs Server 2003 Standard SP2 the other R2. The one running Standard lets call "labserver" the one running r2 lets call "server2003". labserver shares out all the printers. Server2003 pushes the printers to the machines via group policy and print management(feature of R2). This is a school. There are several labs. All the students use a mandatory profile. All the lab machines are cloned exactly alike. Here's my problem. Sometimes when the students try to print it says that the printers aren't installed correctly. Basical…

Possible mail server switch
by Guest Gretchen Hembree- 3 replies
- 199 views
I know this isn't the right board for this question, but I wasn't sure where else to go! I am looking for an expert opinion. I have a company of about 30 users who each have two email addresses. For the last several years we have hosted our own internal email with an MDeamon mail server software. That is currently on a Windows Server 2003 OS. Once the mail is checked it is moved and stored on another server that is running Windows Server 2000 and Exchange 2000. Due to a variety of reasons including occasional MDaemon anti-virus file corruption and the desire to check email remotely, I am considering a switch to an external hosting service with POP …

too strict on min disk free alarm? (5%/300GB drive)
by Guest Name withheld by request- 4 replies
- 210 views
This is a filesystem question, but I could not find an appropriate newsgroup - pls suggest one, thx. We have an appliaction owner that claims our corporate standard of telephoning them at all hours day or night, when the disk is more that 95% full is out-dated for any drive that is over 100GB or so. He argues that the filesystem (NTFS) on his server's 300GB drive can still operate efficiently when it is 97 or 98% full. Is this correct? Can someone give a good argument for keeping at least 5% or more free disk space, even when 5% may be many GB, or is this out of date thinking? This is on a SAN, so we never defrag it, the EMC SAN has it's own approach…

Hi We're setting up wireless and using a RADIUS server. We've come to the thorny issue of trying to automatically push out a certificate. I've created the certificate which is a duplicate of the user template, but when I go into the certification authority snap in, it doesn't appear in the last to add for enrollment? Anyone shed any light on this or need more information? Thanks
