Guys, We are looking to replace our Domain Controller which also have Terminal Licenseing Server. Any methods/ways I can use to perform the procedure? Here is my brief Domain Controller plan for a background of what I am doing. I am not sure about the Terminal Licensing Server. Thanks, Tnt. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Guys, I am looking to get ideas/opinions on the best approach to promote a 2003 (Enterprise) Server to a domain controller. Right now, we have two domain controllers (ad1 & ad2) in our live environment. Both are also dns servers (replication of each other). On ad1, we have te…

I'm trying to set up a laptop for our nurses. They mostly work off line and connect to the network (directly or via VPN) to either sync their medical database with the master on the server or work connected via our Citrix PS4 farm. They have no local applications installed on the laptop other than the medical database client software and the Citrix ICA client. Only one network drive is defined and no printers (HIPAA concerns)... I've been asked to try and make some network files available to the nurses so that they can edit them in disconnected mode and then send/upload to the network. I've looked at several options, but they all seem to focus on sy…

Folks, I have a Windows 2003 Server with 2-73Gb SCSI disks setup in a Raid 1 configuration. It has worked great until yesterday. A message appeared on the screen saying that one of the drives had a error and my mirror was no longer working. It turned out to be Disk 0. I booted off of the mirror (Mirror Drive C - Secondary Plex) and the machine came up fine. I ran Dell Diagnostics on the drives, and it checked out fine. Dell thinks the drive is fine. When I look at Logical Disk Manager, Disk 0 has a yellow triangle with an exclamation point (I guess referencing a problem), and Disk 1 has no such issue. When I right click on either disk the "Break m…

What are the steps in relaoding a domain controller for 2003? Do I make it a member server and then reload? The server will be called the same as it is now. Thanks J

SPECIFICATIONS: Dell Dimension 9100 Intel Pentium 4 processor, 1GB RAM, 2x 160GB hard disks, 256MB nVidia GeForce 6800 graphics, DVD+/-RW +DL, DVD-ROM ok, yesterday I got a wondeful blue screen of death which amongst other things said unmountable boot volume (before I continue i'm writing this on a laptop in case your wondering) After much internet searching, diagnostics etc I was getting a return code of seven, which basically means the hard drive has gone kuput (i think) Anyway on more searching i read somewhere that the drives actually are a copy of each other and hold the same info...soooo I was wondering, can one work on its own with the backup.…

Hi! :-) I like to play a space shooter game called Star Defender. When I go to Start/Programs or Start/Run to open the game, it opens just fine. But when I try to open it with an assigned hoykey on my keyboard or putting the command line of c:\Program Files\Star Defender 4\StarDefender4.exe into Windows Explorer, unlike most other files I try to open in those ways, I get this error message Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library Runtime Error! Program: c:\Program Files\Star Defender 4\StarDefender4.exe This application has requested the runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the applications support team for more information. W…

RE: SP2 what a bunch of @#$!!! You must have the lowest I.Q about Windows XP Service Pack 2 !!! I have used Windows XP SP1 and it was absolute !&@^!(@ !!! Used Service Pack 2, and I stopped receiving 'Messenger Spam', I get more security updates and more compatibility with programs, and it comes with a FREE and LOW MAINTANENCE firewall! We all know what Windows and Microsoft Update is for - too bad you can't pick up most of our logic - At least you understand SOME! You completly stuffed up on installation. I stop AVG scanning my system. Everything worked. ------------------------ Get to Microsoft.com and reinstall Windows XP SP2. And please reme…

Hi, We map the "my documents" folder as follows \\server1\users \UserLogOnName Today I was browsing through \\server1\users (using windows explorer) when I saw a folder with the name \\server1\users\documents (The icon was changed to the "my documents" icon). When I double-clicked on the "documents folder" the path in windows explorer changed to the correct name \\server1\users\UserLogOnName! Why did the name of the folder change from "UserLogOnName" to "Documents"??? Thanks for your feedback, Dani

There are times when I am unable to delete a directory or program because the situation described in the subject line arises. Is there a way to determine exactly which program is using the said program?

8/2/2007 A most recent message with a date of 11-06-2006 in a major newsgroup? This is obviously wrong. I click on "get next 300 headers..." but the most recent message remains with a date of 11-06-2006. How would I fix this problem? Thank you, Barry Karas

Is it ok to install a win2k print driver on a windows server 2003r2? the printer is very old and the company is no longer updating the print driver - i do not want to introduce any sort of instability to this server. i am under the impression that win2k and win2003 are similar enough that you can use the print drivers released for win2k on the 2003 server, correct? thanks for your comment. magoo
