SPN for sql server service
by Guest lobezno- 0 replies
- 193 views
Hi all, I'm trying to set an spn for sql server service I'm in my DC machine and execute: setspn -a MSSQLSvc\SQL_SRV:1433 MyDOMAIN\MyUser where SQL_SRV is the sql server machine in MyDomain. At first sight, all it's OK. I get an "updated object" return message. But then If I execute: setspn -l SQL_SRV the sql service, doesn't appear. Also, If I see MyUser properties in AD delegation tab, and try to select the service, it doesn't appear. Another extrange think it's that, I've created MyUser, totally new, it means that delegation tab in AD propertiers, doesn't appear (it's correct), then, I've executed the setspn, and then, delegation tab appears ¿?

by Guest indytoatl- 4 replies

Is it possible in any way shape, form or fashion to map a network share without using drive letters? Our company merged with another company and we use some of the same drive letters for our department shares. Without completely changing everyone's environment, can this be done? We looked at Windows Mount Points but the directories had to be empty. Domain = Win2003 FileServers = Win2003

I am receiving a NTP Server did not respond, w32time event ID 11. I have searched the support site and found the error but did not locate how I can remedy this situation.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. -- Bruce

FTP user login to specific directory
by Guest Matt- 3 replies
- 268 views
First off I did not know where I should post this so I apologize if it's in the wrong area. I had a qestion about FTP users. I have an FTP directory set up on my server where users can log on drop files etc.. I have one user who I want to log into a different shared directory on that server by using the same ftp path. Is there somewhere in a user profile i could make this users ftp login go to a specific directory... ie... \\servername\shared folder? So he would do the same steps as everyone else, go to a browser, type in ftp address, enter username/password and just for him it would re direct to the other directory. If this is not possible what…

Ok, I am getting a Inaccessible boot device when I boot up into Windows 2000 Server. I have done a check disk on my drives (RAID5) with 3 HDD's. They seem to be OK per the check disk. Next I done a Windows repair. After this I was able to get pas the blue screen and go somewhat into a GUI. It gives me an error saying Security Accounts Manager initialization failed because of the following error: The security ID structure is invalid. Error status 0xc0000078. After googleing this I seen where people said a defrag should fix this. But other sources point to the registry as a problem. I do have a backup but it seems like when I load the backup it g…

NetLogon Scripting by Domain Controller location
by Guest Don R Hunsinger- 1 reply
- 224 views
All, This is a 2003 Domain with seven domain controllers. I want to write a DOS batch file to check for the existence of our anti-virus application and if it does not exist to install it from the Netlogon based on which domain controller they are logging into. This way I can run it for each region after we have pushed from the Anti-Virus servers and clean up any users that missed the push. I want to know if I can use the %logonserver% variable to specify where to install it from. That way I would be able to specify which locations by logon domain controller can install. i.e. if %logonserver% equals SJWSDC00 then... or if %logonserver% not SJWSD…

w2k3/IIS6 query on FTP logins?
by Guest JVRudnick- 2 replies
- 673 views
Learning here how to use windows Explorer to ftp data to our server, instead of using our FTP software. Seems pretty easy to do, but I've a question. w2k3 is supposed to allow you to both isolate or not, the user from all the folders in the vhosts folder, as I understand it. In setting up a simple FTP, I just used the Wizard and it ran fine...but I did note that when I tried to use same, I was asked for the id/pw and I had them for one of the sites on the server....but that made me wonder. When I'm using RDC on the server and settting up a new FTP service there, for a client whom I want to be isolated, I did NOT see anyway to create id/pw for them. …
