W2K3 Backup Image Software Recommendation
by Guest JohnR- 1 reply

Hi, I have a Dell PowerEdge 2950 with six 450GB SAS discs forming a RAID 10 array of 1.2 TB. I'm running Windows Server 2003 R2 with SP1. I need some software that will create an image of the system on an external disc that I can later use for complete system recovery. I've found Acronis True Image Echo Server for Windows. It's ~$600 and seems like it might do what I need. I'm not very price sensitive, but if I can get something that will do basically the same thing for less, I'd like to consider it. Do you know of any other software I should consider? What if I added the need to make incremental backups to this requirement? Would that push me to a di…

Is W2008 ready for production? really ready?

OK I'm not experienced in admin - my background is software development - but I run a small business and do my own admin. I say this because a few times some quirky things happened a week ago (can't remember the details) but yesterday I had to install NTBACKUP utility twice (this is the special one from MS to allow restoration of NTBACKUPed files from W2003) as after the first time I installed it it would not run due to a missing DLL. Similarly over the last 3 days I have been trying to register MSSOAP30.DLL without success. I have tried everything - I posted a thread on this forum - a thread on Experts-Exchange - everything. I am going on holidays …

Roaming Profile and a Login Script
by Guest Francisco- 2 replies
- 244 views
Environment: Server: Windows 2003 Workstations: Windows XP SP2 I have roaming profiles setup, and all user accounts have a login script to xcopy files to their local machine. My issue is, I editted the login script to "REM" (without the quotes) the xcopy statement, but the xcopy still seems to try to xcopy these files locally. I'm assuming the issue is with the roaming profiles. Any ideas how to resolve this? I would like to stop the xcopy ... i even deleted the statement and it still tries to copy the files locally after a restart. Thanks in advance.

We've a very strange problem in one of our server, i.e. NIC ordering in windows 2003 server always got changed automatically when we reboot the server. We want the NIC to be in one particular order for our application to work. Id set the order by doing the following but still it chages on the reboot How to change the binding order of network adapters 1. Click Start, click Run, type ncpa.cpl , and then click OK. You can see the available connections in the LAN and High-Speed Internet section of the Network Connections window. 2. On the Advanced menu, click Advanced Settings, and then click the Adapters and Bindings tab. http://sup…

start service with parameters on restart
by Guest exotericist- 22 replies
- 718 views
i'm charged with maintaining an application which has multiple listener services. the first service can be set to auto. subsequent services need to be passed a parameter to start. in 2003 i've used sc.exe to pass a parameter to a service on startup and this works fine. i could set it so that the services were started by the act of logging in. however, i'd like the services to come up automatically on restart without the need for user intervention, since that's what services are supposed to do. my question is, therefore, the one in the title: how can i start a service in windows server 2003 on machine restart and pass it a parameter? many tha…

How to restore some data created by NTBACKUP to W2008.
by Guest ThomasAJ- 1 reply
- 195 views
I know the backup utility in W2008 is not NTBACKUP. Anyway I connect a USB HD to W2008 that contains the W2003 backup - Disk Management sees it. I go into the W2008 backup utility, RECOVER/'Another server'/'Local drives'/ Then the 'Select backup location' screen appears but the Backup location drop-down box ONLY has the CD drive. This is strange as the description in the 'Select backup location' screen explicitly talks about "...an external disk attached to this server...". OK so if this new backup utility does not work for me can I install NTBACKUP to be used for recovery only? -- Regards Tom

I think I need to use regsvr32 in syswow64 to register a 32 bit dll: c:\Windows\syswow64\regsvr32.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\MSSoap\Binaries\MSSOAP30.DLL" It says the module failed to load etc. I also tried: regsvr32.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\MSSoap\Binaries\MSSOAP30.DLL" Same error message. I am installing a program that needs MSSOAP30.DLL -- Regards Tom

Mysterious shutdown/reboot
by Guest SharedNews- 2 replies
- 233 views
I have a 2003 server sp2 that for the past 2 weeks has rebooted itself every thursday at about 2:15 pm. Nothing in event logs except the previous system shutdown was unexpected. This server is not facing internet and has Symantec NAV up to date, ran malicious spyware detector and rootkit revealer and nothing looks malicious. Is there a more detailed log that might help? My next step is going to be turn off the automatic reboot on failure to see if a BSOD pops up and to phyically watch it at the given time. We do have a UPS that has the replace battery light on- so I tried removing that also. Any other ideas welcome Carl
