Hello: I need to copy several gigs of data from one server to another. In the middle of the copy I keep getting an error saying the path is to long and then the copy crashes. I have looked at some utilities for this but really do not want to buy something. Does anyone know what I can use? Harrison

x64 Process using x32 Dll
by Guest Jackson- 0 replies
- 199 views
Hi, I have a requirement to allow a 64bit application running under Server 2003 R2 x64 to call a 32 bit dll. (The dll is from a third party so I'm stuck with 32 bit). FRom what I've managed to find the way to do this is by adding a COM wrapper around the 32 bit dll. Is this the best/only way to achieve this? Any pointers to documentation for Server 2003 that describes this would also help. --------- Regards Jackson

force a 'pause' or 'sleep' between print jobs
by Guest dave- 0 replies
- 220 views
Hi All, I am involved in a project where we need to have cretin print jobs sent to specific trays. If these print jobs are sent individually they print to the correct trays. if they are sent together, that is in quick succession, they print to the wrong trays. we have found that if we send these jobs together and pause the print queue and pause each individual print job the release each print job separately from the print queue they print fine. Is there a way to setup an automatic 'pause' or 'sleep' between print jobs? Windows Server 2003 R2 multiple printer type but all HP's Thanks in Advance

Is there any advantage to Using Wins?
by Guest steve- 7 replies
- 361 views
I have win2003 server with about 15 XP clients. We use dhcp from a router. Is there any advantage to setting up wins on the server. It is my understanding that it is used for netbios clients. We dont install netbios on any of the computers. Would it be a waste of time to set up the wins on the server. Or does it do more than that. Would it help our network function better. If you ask "if it aint broke dont fix it" . Well the network does act up sometimes. Im wondering if this might help a little. Regards

Can't access server via remote desktop connection
by Guest Mark Christensen- 17 replies
- 908 views
I have an XP machine that I use to remote into our server that's located in another part of the building. The server is running Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition SP2. The server is set up to accept remote connections. Usually I can get in to it fine, but then every so often when I open the Remote log on box on my PC and click connect (after entering the log on info like normal), the Remote log on box just refreshes and won't let me connect to the server. Our fix for this has always been to reboot the server, then I can log in fine, but this doesn't seem right. Is there something wrong with our server? Or a setting that needs to be changed on it so I can …

Reserving a Port in Windows 2003 server
by Guest Saral6978- 2 replies
- 249 views
I need to reserve the UDP port, 53, for one of my DCs due to a recent DNS update to see if this will resolve the issue I have with DNS not starting and hanging my server on reboot. I have the instructions on how to do this from here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/812873/ (Original problem describing update here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/956188) It says I must enter the port # in the format of xxxx-yyyy. If the port is only 2 digits, do I just enter in 53-53 (just need to reserve a single port) or do I enter 0053-0053? Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I just want to make sure. Thank you!

Hi all, At the office we are getting a little confused with CAL's. Basically we have bought a new site and are creating a trust between our domain and theirs. Will our CAL's allow us to access not only our servers here, but the servers we are creating a trust with. Will they also be classed as our servers? (We own both servers) Regards

Hello, I have an USB REV35 IOMEGA connected to a 2003 SP1 Standard server. I use it for Backup purpose. Every day of the week are the disks swapped. It was working without problems about 2 years. Now I have the situation where each time the eject button is pressed, the server startet immediately a reboot with error codes: 0x0000000a (0x00000000, 0x0000001b, 0x00000001, 0x8082947b) And this, since I have updated to the newest driver and firmware (before reboot was sporadic). I don't know where I could begin to look for... Perhaps has someone an idea? More generally, I am wondering now whether this backup method is the right one. Removing a disk …

Hello, I have a Windows 2003 R2 SP2 server which is stand alone on our network, I want to use something like a robocopy to automate the process of moving files from that server to our file server which is on the domain. I create a share on the file server and specfiy that only the domain admins can access this share. I then go to the server which is stand alone and map a network drive z to the share, I specfiy to connect with the domain cretionals and I save the user/pass. The share connects and maps fine the first time but everytime I restart I have to constantly keep puttign in the domain user/pass even tho I have it set to save it. Why is this…
