Maxtor 1TB USB 2 Drive Only Seen As 43Gb?
by Guest Ben- 1 reply
- 191 views
Hi, I've got a client who is running Windows 2003 Server SP2, they have recently brought a 1TB Maxtor Basics External USB 2 drive that they use for backups. If you plug the drive in, Windows sees the drive and it seems to work fine. However, if you reboot the server, Windows will only see the drive as 43gb, and keeps asking to format the drive. The only way to get Windows to recognise the drive properly is to disconnect the USB cable wait a few seconds, then plug it in again. This is a bit of a pain, especially if you are trying to work remotely. I've tried updating the drivers, but it seems to be using the standard microsoft USB hard disk drivers, so doesn't …

File Shares/User names and passwords being remembered
by Guest theinvisibleGhost- 4 replies
- 281 views
We've got a Win2k3 machine set up as a simple File Server (Active Directory not installed/activated) Connecting in using Windows XP machines initially the machines request user names and passwords which is good. However they then seem to store these usernames and passwords. Is there some way of stopping them doing this? It gives two problems, one is that it's a security issue, and two it means the same XP machine can't be used to log into the file shares with different user accounts. Any ideas would be much appreciated. Cheers, Chris.

Group Policy
by Guest ME- 2 replies

Here is the scenario: 2003 active directory with IT OU and Servers built-in OU. IT people in IT OU have a login script in a group policy at User Configuration/Windows Settings/Scripts/Logon folder. When IT people log into a PC the login script executes. However I don't want the login script execute when IT people log into the servers listed inside the Server OU. How do I make it work? I already selected Block Inheritance when I right click Servers OU but it did not prevent the login script from running at login. Thanks.

Experts, I am running Windows 2003 Server SP2, and on this machine, I cannot get the Workstation service to start automatically (thoug the service is set to start automatically). Once the machine boots up, I can log in and start the service from the services panel manually without any problems. I checked the dependencies, and this service is not dependent on any other service. Understandably, other services that are dependent on Workstation do not start up either. The Error log lists the following two entries: Event Type: Error Event Source: Service Control Manager Event Category: None Event ID: 7009 Date: 8/6/2008 Time: 10:12:12 AM User: N/A C…

I am just setting up a new windows 2008 domain with vista clients. Just doing a bit of work getting the roamin profiles up and running. I have redirected all of the folders to the network shares: \\servername\home$\ and they seem to be running ok. The problem I am having it that when the user logs in a folder is on the desktop with their username on. So when bob smith logs in there is a folder called bob smith. All of the folders inside this seem to be redirecting to the network drives ok. How can i go about disabling this from the desktop? I have had a look in the group policy but i cannot see what it is called. I have found the option in the group p…
