Procedure for Recovering Missing SYSTEM32 Folder
by Guest Will- 4 replies
- 372 views
I posted over many different threads a problem I had on a Windows system where the SYSTEM32 folders suddenly disappeared, taking out the registry with them. I recovered from this situation today as follows. I am including this in a server thread because the recovery procedure would be essentially the same (except for the lack of system restore points with Windows 2003), and I am documenting for posterity. 1) I restored an old backup of the file system to a portable drive. 2) I restore an old backup of the system state to the same drive. 3) I booted the down system with ERD Commander and the portable drive attached. 4) I copied over first the missing …

Do I need CALs for service accounts?
by Guest SF- 3 replies
- 324 views
We have some mail and scan to folder enabled printers on my network. For best functionality they need to have a network login in with which to authenticate to the domain. These "users" show up in my licensing server as unlicensed users. I am uncertain if these accounts should require CALs or not. My vendor account rep can't seem to give me a straight answer. Do these "service users" require CALs? and if not how can I get them out of my license reporting to make the books look correct? Any answers?

On my Win2K sp4 file server, i have some files that you can open, but you can't save over them, rename them, or move them to another folder, you get the It is being used by another person or program. I tried using Process Explorer to see what had the file open and it couldn't find it. i disabled backup exec remote agent, diskeeper service (had to kill it cuz it wouldn't stop normally) and mcafee virusscan 8 related services, and none of those freed up the files. Help!!!!

Cannot connect to DB on Windows Server 2003 through Web Application
by Guest cardinalbean@gmail.com- 2 replies
- 300 views
I have narrowed this issue down to Windows Server 2003 not allowing my web application to connect to the SQL 2000 DB. I have an ASP.NET web application running on my machine that is connecting to SQL 2000 server that lives on Windows Server 2003 machine. The connection will not work from my web application to the database. The connection does work from my machine through query analyzer and also from a .NET desktop application. Is there a setting on Windows Server 2003 that blocks connections to SQL Server that are initiated from a web application? Thank you, Josh

Bug in file sharing transfer speed
by Guest שאלתיאל- 0 replies
- 233 views
When I transfer a big file (40GB) via a shared folder, then the speed infact (size/time) is only 100Mbit/s, while with other applications I can transfer files at 800Mbit/s. I have checked a lot of parameters at perfmon, and found that at the receiving end, the speed of disk writes is limited (only in MS file sharing) to only 12,000,000. If someone knows a solution to this please let me know. If someone can repeat my experiment - You would need disks that are capable of at least 30MByte/s, and a gigabit network. Send a file that is large enough so that the transfer will take enough time to check stuff at perfmon. Send it via a shared folder, and wat…

Is it possible to restore a system state backup to an alternate file path on a different computer, WITHOUT changing the system state of the computer you are restoring from?

Password Policy
by Guest bondo- 1 reply
- 260 views
We need to deploy a password policy for all users. We set up a dummy account that is required to change thier password on next logon, and every 45 days. We then set them up on the accounting/ billing server that is only a member server so they can access the applications. We tested the account for logging into the domain first and if they could access the desired apps. Not a problem. Then made the neccessary test changes. Now the dummy user can log into the domain, but not the application server. Password/user unknown error. All servers are 2003 Standard/R2, and all workstations are XP Pro. TIA and any further info I will provide Hope this is …

Migrating from one 2003 box to another
by Guest SoxFanInVA- 3 replies
- 252 views
I have a 2003 box that is giving me fits so imaged the drive with StorageCraft's ShadowProtectIT however I am getting an error on restoring that I can't get a solution to. So, I was going to install the OS on the new box and then migrate user data and server settings over. We just use this box for remote desktop access and nothing else. No Exchange, no AD, no file shares, just remote access so I wouldn't think it would be a difficult migration. How would I get all the user data and server settings migrated to the new box? Any tips or or articles would be helpful. Thanks, Tom

R2 File Server Resource Manager Reporting
by Guest Thorn- 1 reply
- 206 views
I have just setup FSRM on an existing clustered file server (2003 SP2/ R2 Enterprise 2 node cluster). I am trying to run a File Screen Audit report, but I am not getting the results I was expecting. I am only getting files in my reports that have been created since the file screening was setup. None of the hundreds of mp3's are showing up that were housed on this server before installing FSRM. But if I copy a new one out, it shows on the report. So I have a blank report, except for the new mp3 i put out there. Is this by design? Shouldnt I see all of the extensions I am looking for regardless of history? Thanks Thorn

Can a Server 2003 (5 users license, 4 users) Domain conroller be rolled back into a plain file and print server - this is a very small network and it seems that it is overkill for access to a few documents. also, why would a single workstation (xp pro) be able to login in to the server but "read only" rights. the other 3 stations (xp pro) login fine.

Setting up to test apps using TS
by Guest Markus- 4 replies
- 377 views
I’d like to set up Terminal Services (TS) in order to run my Access app, and MS Word/Excel. I would like to test this out first, and become familiar with it, before I actually install Server 2003 or 2005. Would appreciate it if someone could get me started by answering a few basic questions. I understand MS provides virtual server 2003 or 2005 to conduct such testing in those environments without the need to purchase server 2003/2005 for testing. Is that correct? Next, I am unclear on just how virtual servers work. If I were installing an actual version of Server2003, for example, I would partition the hd. As I understand it, with a virtual server…
