Disable Shutdown Event tracker 2003 Server R2
by Guest Dave K.- 3 replies
- 238 views
OK, I know how to disable the shutdown tracker in a standard version of Server 2003. But in 2003 R2, when I run gpedit.msc, there is not System container under Local Computer > Policy -> Administrative Templates -> All that shows up under Administrative Templates is Windows Components. Is shutdown tracker disabled in a different location, or is it even possible in 2003 R2?

no WSUS in windows 2008 server roles
by Guest Verus- 2 replies
- 299 views
Hello, I am playing around with windows server 2008 for operational installation soon. Now, i have a book which says that WSUS is standard in 2008 and you should install it in "add roles wizard". The problem is that i don't have Windows Server Update Services in that wizard. I saw a printscreen on internet where wsus and hyper-v are in the "add roles wizard". So my question is why is it not in our list. kind regards, Verus.

Shortcut behaves different vs Start\Run \\serverXX
by Guest David- 0 replies

Hi, I have a 2003 Enterprise server SP2 32bit running here. On some computers, that aren't part of the domain, and not always, when I go to start \ Run, and type \\server to open the shares I should get prompted for a password (or a list of shares if I already authenticated) but I get a message: \\server is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator to find out if you have access permissions. An unexpected network error occured. If I go to the server through a shortcut to \\server , or through Network Places, I can access it just fine. This happens on XP Pro SP2 & SP3 & Vista Busines…

Adjusting Default Installation Drive
by Guest RAZ- 2 replies
- 268 views
We are using a Windows 2003 Enterprise server for our exchange 2003 server. When I try to install a new program on the server it will automatically choose to go to the E drive instead of the C drive. This normally wouldn't be so bad except that I can't install SP2 because it cannot find the INF file on the E drive and you are not given the choice to choose what drive you want to install it on. Where do you adjust the setting to select the default drive for installing programs on this type of server?

I have a server with 2 NIC's. Is it possible to enable the Windows firewall on just one of them ? If not, should I install RRAS ? I just need the server to have internet access for anti-virus updates--it doesn't host any web apps or anything.

Auditing Object Access
by Guest JohnB- 3 replies
- 272 views
This is kind of an usual situation; approximately 50 users whose primary use of the network is to RDP into a server to use a company application. It is a Windows 2003 server that was setup as a DC. The clients are Vista and XP, all Home edition. So none of the computers are joined to the domain (I know, unusual). The server is backed up at night by Scheduler using xcopy in a batch file. Everything seems to work fine with the backup. But, almost every day, files and sub-folders turn up missing from one particular folder on the server. They are primarily Word and Excel files (all accessed locally using RDP). I redirect the output of the xcopy com…

I have a couple of domain controllers running Windows Server 2003 Standard with SP2 and I'd like to know if it's possible to upgrade them to the Enterprise edition? Basically, I need to do this as IAS on the standard version only supports up to 50 devices and I need to add more devices. Apparently the enterprise version of IAS supports more devices. Thanks!

We have 2 Dell servers purchased at the same time last year and configured exactly the same. They run a web application, HTTP, FTP and SMTP. The problem is that every fews days to a few weeks, we never know when, the server will become unresponsive when logging in to the console. This happens whether we log in at the monitor, using the remote access card or the rdp console. We get a black screen for about 30 - 45 minutes and either have to reboot or wait it out. During that time the server can be pinged but the web sites cannot be reached. There are no System or Application errors or even warnings in Microsoft. There are no viruses or trojans on the ser…

Moving Certificate Services from 2000 to 2003
by Guest Cyberwiz64- 0 replies
- 206 views
I am running Windows 2003 on my DCs. My CA is installed on a Windows 2000 server. I would like to move my certificate services from 2000 to a 2003 server. I saw the article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/298138/en-us but it says I have to upgrade the CA to 2003. I cannot do that because of other services running on the box. I want to get my CA on 2003 so it will support the autoenrollment of certificates feature. Does anyone know if... I can move my CA to another 2000 box and then upgrade the new CA to 2003 with minimal disruption? Any assistance is appreciate. Thank you.

Roaming profile security
by Guest Joe Brown- 1 reply
- 216 views
I want a few people on our help desk to have the ability to delete roaming profiles. I've created a Profile Admins group and added it to the security list for pcprofiles folder. If I check the box to replace permissions on child objects the Profile Admins group gets added to exisiting profile folders. New profiles, however, do not get the Profile Admins group when they get created because the new profiles do not have the box checked to inherit permissions. How do I fix this to where that box is checked for new profiles? We do not manually create the roaming profile.

I have three questions, please answer them with explanation. Q-1) You are a network administrator for Uk. The network consists of a single Active Directory domain named Uk.com. Your company acquires a company named Usa. The USA network consists of a single Active-Directory domain named USA.com. A server named Server32 is a network-management application server in the USA.com domain. Server32 accesses all of the desktop client computers to perform automated software upgrades and hardware inventory. The network-management software on Server32 references desktop computers by unqualified host names, which are resolved to client name.USA.com by using a DNS …

Windows Server 2003 does not open its own share

Hello, I observed a funny thing. We have several Windows Server 2003. They are part of a domain, let us call it .pac. Let us call one server Munich. The servers have several shares, let us call one share on Munich "Inside". On server munich I open The Run-Window (Start, run) and then typ in: \\munich.pac\Inside The Server does not open the share, it asks for authentication which never works. I alway receive: Logon unsuccessful. Windows is unable to log you on. Be sure that your user name and password are correct. If I type in: \\munich\Inside then it opens the share immediately without any question. If I go to another windows server 2003 or my XP-Cli…

Hello all, My organisation has a windows server 2003 SP 1 domain controller running certificate services. During a previous upgrade to Win Server 2003 SP1, there were quite a number of issues arising form the upgrade. I am just being curious if there is any known issue with upgrading a domain controller running certificate service to service pack 2. I would appreciate responses from the house on the best way to upgrade the server without any issue. Regards Damola
