Anyone have any experience with a CDP (continuous data protection) device manufactured by SonicWall, specifically the 2440i model? Any of them for that matter. I'm considering buying one for a Win2k server running AD. It's a small network with about a dozen users. -- Jordon

Backup Recommendatoin?
by Guest Nobody Important- 3 replies

I just installing a new Dell server with Server 2003 and two workstation running Xp Pro. There is a single data drive that is being backed up daily. My concern is backing up the Windows installs of all the computers. I do have a DVD DL burner on the server. Is there software that will let me burn image files of the Windows drives that will not be changing except for minor updates every few weeks so that if any PC crashes I can limit my downtime in getting the network repaired?

DCPROMO Question
by Guest Ann- 10 replies
- 775 views
I was reading up on decommissioning a DC. This is the last server in the domain, no other servers are in the domain. I plan on running DCPROMO to remove Active Directory and then shut the server down since it's no longer needed. My question is (and it's a weird one), when you're going through the wizard and it states that the domain will no longer exist, does that rip out all the information from the DNS server for that domain I'm removing or will it stay there? (it's on a completely different server) Odd question I know, I hope I asked it right. Thanks in advance.

Hello, after installing the "User Profile Hive Cleanup Services" my Visual Studio 6.0 (SP6) (and windbg, also) displays a lot of messages at the end of a debug session. The messages are of the kind: WINREG: Tracked key data for object 0x... WINREG: Name: \REGISTRY\USER\S-1-5-21-... Frames 12WINREG: Frame 0 = 0x... WINREG: Frame 1 = 0x... WINREG: Frame 2 = 0x... WINREG: Frame 3 = 0x... .... There were no such messages before the installation of UPHClean. Unfortunately the messages remain after an uninstall of UPHClean and even after a reinstall of Visual Studio. Can someone give me a hint what's the reason for these messages and how I can get rid o…

W2K3 Problem: DMA reverts to PIO -- help
by Guest Steeve- 1 reply
- 283 views
Using Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2, I am still having a problem with an IDE controller only operating in PIO mode instead of DMA (which slows my system to a crawl). This problem was described in KB81742 and KB919168, and was supposed to be resolved by SP2. It is also described here: http://winhlp.com/?q=node/10 None of the proposed solutions seems to work for me. If I delete the MasterIdDataChecksum key (see http://winhlp.com/?q=node/10), it works temporarily, but then reverts to PIO. Can anyone tell me what to do to solve this? Thanks! Steve

And now the Administrator login and my login can not get some of the subdirectories that I changed the permissions to. When i went to change the permissions for this one directory for the group everyone i got a message saying "Caution! Deny entries take prioity over Allow Entries, which can cause unintented effects due to group memberships.

Access is denied". however, the users can get into the directories that i can not get in…

RIS OemPreinstall Problems
by Guest michael- 2 replies

I am trying to building a RIS image that is full automated but I am having one screen that will appear for user interaction. The screen is after the formatting and coping files and the GUI part of the install starts. The screen says, "Welcome to the Windows XP Setup Wizard" I have found that this only happens when I have the OemPreinstall=Yes, set in the Unatteneded section of the restndrd.sif file. If I turn this setting to =Off then the prompt does not happen but I do not get my oem drivers to install. Please let me know what I need to do to remove this prompt from my install. Here is a copy of my ristndrd.sif: [Data] AutoPartition=1 M…

Multiple Services Won't Start

We have a server problem after a shutdown and reboot that I can't seem to find any solutions for. The server is a Windows 2003 Standard O/S with SP1 installed. We shutdown the server yesterday morning to relocate within the server room. After powering back on the server restarted differently than expected. We recieved a message about a service or services not starting. We checked services and many were not starting even though they are set to Automatice. When clicking on these services or properties, they do nothing. Each returns and error depending on what the service is dependent on if any. Additionally, we looked in event viewer for clues, but…

I am currently in the process of debugging 3 servers on one domain (2 DC and a simple member server) all running on Windows 2003 SP2 R2. I will explain the problem more in details... it all started when i installed SP2 on the member server. Everything was working fine on all 3 servers before SP2.

Print Services for UNIX and Permissions
by Guest Anwar Mahmood- 0 replies

Hi all, I'm working on a project to integrate Macs to a predominantly Windows Server 2003 Active Directory network. In a test environment, I've joined an iMac to Active Directory and can successfully logon with different Active Directory accounts. I then want to print to network printers. This is most reliably achieved using UNIX standards on the iMac and on the Windows Server 2003 box. So, I've installed Print Services for UNIX on the server, created a printer and shared it. I can create a printer on the iMac and print successfully to the shared printer without problems. However, if I then modify the default permissions, withdrawing the Everyone e…
