    - network - best way? I have 1 server computer (windows 2003 server), 5 computers (xp) and 2 laptops (xp). Server is used for file sharing, has network programs installed (network license, used by almost all users on their comp), and backup. The network is installed using a router (not ICS). I want to improve the network so that I can: 1. use server to login and troubleshoot issues on other computers (other computers users have limited accounts, I have admin account) 2. somehow automate the backup process 3. be able to remotely connect to the server ( and other comps) to remotely troubleshoot or perform other tasks (usually from home and I use one of the 2 laptops for this purpose. currwntly I have remoteadmin installed on server.) What is the best option to achieve all this? Please point to some good resources. Also, please point out the best ways to achieve all this. Ashok Tag: dhcp client leases if server fails Tag: 234205

    - DST Foolishness From what I can tell the server in question doesn't have the new DST patch from MS. I manually changed the time on a DC to the correct one. All the servers have the correct time, but client stations are all one hour ahead. (The clock on the servers do not have auto adjust for DST checked while the client stations do). Is there an easy way to fix this domain wide? Tag: dhcp client leases if server fails Tag: 234199

    - Website accessing files on virtual directory I have a Windows 2000 server with IIS 6.0 hosting a website. This website accesses and posts pictures via a virtual directory that is located on a separate 2003 server. Our web programmer has built a function to manipulate these pictures and repost them (change color, B&W, etc). This function works with images that are located local on the webserver and images located on a Network Storage device (Buffalo Teraserver - no o/s) but when trying this with the images located on the 2003 server it does not work. I figure this is some type of permission issue. I have changed permissions on both the webserver and 2003 server but have not found the right combo. I know this question is somewhat vague but if anyone has an idea I would love to hear it. Thanks Tag: dhcp client leases if server fails Tag: 234194

    - Lost my connection Hi, I set up a simple home network between a desktop running XP Home and router (the anchor), a laptop running XP Home and a laptop running 2000 Pro. All the connections worked fine. I then added a little more security using a WEP password on the desktop. The XP Home connected fine after I typed in the password. The 2000 machine has balked. I never get a dialog box asking for a password (key). I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the wireless card with no success. Actually, the 2000 machine never gives me an option for wireless. The only options I get are dialup. The 2000 machine does indicate a connection but the activity sends packets but receives nothing. I shut down the firewall on the desktop but still no success. What am I doing wrong? Thanks, jll Tag: dhcp client leases if server fails Tag: 234187

    - Only Administrator can ping router I recently added a new user with Admin privileges on Win2000 Pro, in addition to the default Administrator. That new user cannot ping the router. (The username is the normal login id for other computers on the network that have no problem accessing the network). I tried adding another user, same result.

    - Problems in using used/refurbished HP Procurve gear? I have read that using used/refurbished Cisco, at least ones that are not "Cisco Certified Refurbished Equipment", gear can present a problem if you ever need support or software upgrades. Specifically that you need to relicense the Cisco software (see <http:// www.networkworld.com/community/node/14756>). Are there any such limitations in using HP Procurve gear? Will HP support a switch bought from a company like Network Liquidators <http:// www.networkliquidators.com/>, like they would any other out of warranty switch?

    - Can't Find Driver I'm having extreme difficulty getting internet working on Win2k. Going through the network setup wizard doesn't create any connections, and I'm pretty sure that's because there are no network drivers showing up under Device Manager.

    - Test Server naming confusion We have a web server (serverA) that is giving us some trouble. It is running Windows 2000 Server and is joined to a domain. We used the bootable VMWare CD and extracted an image of the computer that has been giving us trouble. Our plan is to experiment with a fix for this machine on the VM, so that we don't cause more trouble with the live machine during maintenance. We copied that image to another machine running VMWare player then removed the network connection and the VM (still named serverA) will boot up fine. Our problem is that we need to get this machine on the network without affecting the original machine (the one we got this image from). My question has a few parts: While this VM computer is running while off the network, if we were to rename this computer to serverB and change the IP address, when we reconnect it to the network, will we then be able to join it to the domain, or should I create a computer account with the new computer's name (serverB) in AD Users and Computers before introducing it to the network? Will there be some sort of cached information that will cause a problem with serverA's computer account? Any help or ideas would be most welcome Paul Tag: dhcp client leases if server fails Tag: 234147

    - How to I remotely schedule backups on network PCs I need to schedule backups to run once on approximately 30 PCs on the network. Most of the PCs already use task scheduler and ntbackup to backup files to a server. But I need to run a seperate one time backup of particular folders on each of the PCs. I'd like to schedule the one time backups to run at scattered times over this weekend. I'm hoping to avoid physically sitting down at each workstation to schedule the task. I'd like to simply create a batch file and then somehow add a scheduled task without going to each PC. My biggest problem is how to schedule the tasks remotely. Or is there a completely better way to do this? (should I instead schedule the server to pull the backups from the PCs?) I'd appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!

    - Can't access shares on server Okay, here goes! One of our servers (Win2k Server) had a drive go out on the built in RAID. I never could get the RAID to rebuild so I installed a new RAID card and new drives. I restored our old drive to the new RAID via our tape backup but the the server wouldn't boot (blue screen of death with a "Boot device is inaccessible" error. Did a reinstall of Windows and the server will now boot. I have managed to get a number of minor issues worked out but today I have run into a problem that I can't figure out. Our company computer network is made up of many PCs and several Macintosh computers. I can access all shares from any of the PCs but I can't get connected from a Mac even though the Macs are trying to access the SMB shares. I find several errors in the System Log that might apply: Source: RASMAN Event ID: 20035 Remote Access Connection Manager failed to start because it could not create buffers. Restart the computer. Access is denied. Source: Service Control Manager Event ID: 7023 The Remote Access Connection Manager Service terminated with the following error: Access is Denied. Both of these errors sound like the Administrator login for the server doesn't have access to something. Could this be some kind of permissions issue? I find these errors in the Application log: Source: Usernav Event ID: 1000 The Group Policy client-side extension security was passed flags (17) and returned a failure status code of (1208) Source:ESENT Event ID: 412 Services(244) unable to read the log header. Error -530 Source: ESENT Event ID: 454 Services(244) Database recovery/restore failed with unexpected error -530. Does anyone have any idea what might be going on? Even better, how do I fix the problem? I would be okay with deleting some services and re-installing them or even deleting users and rebuilding them. But it would be nice to know what the problem was before I took off deleting stuff. Thanks for any assistance! Tag: dhcp client leases if server fails Tag: 234131

    - windows 2000 can't detect windows server 2003 Domain Hi to all pros out there, i will try to clarify the problem i am facing, previously this company have a PDC (windows NT 4.0) with domain name (WORLDGROUP) with a few Server (windows 2000) connected to the domain network as member of the domain. Now they want to replace the old NT 4.0 machine to new machine with (windows server 2003) so firstly, i install the windows server 2003 with domain name (WORLDGROUPC) then link it to the network. after that, i have migrated from the NT 4.0 (WORLDGROUP) to WIN2003 (WORLDGROUPC) then after that, they said they want to use WORLDGROUP as the domain name, so i have rename the Domain Name from WORLDGROUPC to WORLDGROUP by using Microsoft Domain Renaming Tool. After that, by using one of the serverABC with windows 2000 that connected to the domain. i disjoin the ServerABC from domain WORLDGROUP and simply join a workgroup, then i disconnect the old NT (WORLDGROUP) machine from the network and connect the new Win2003 (WORLDGROUP) *after renaming* machine to the network. After that, i disjoin the serverABC windows 2000 from workgroup, and try to join back to WORLDGROUP, but this time, is the new machine win2003 with the same Domain Name. The serverABC just wouldn't join, it keep on showing the domain Name WORLDGROUP couldn't not be found. (it seem like the serverABC win2000 still have some cache memory that referring back to the old (winNT) WORLDGROUP instead of the new (win2003)WORLDGROUP. i have tried to use XP machine to join the new WORLDGROUP win2003, and everything works fine, only win2000 seem to kept on referring back to the old (winNT) WORLDGROUP. it seem kinda confusing, but this is what really happened in this company right now >.< really appreciated to any help provided thanks in advance regards, Vince -- Message posted via WinServerKB.com http://www.winserverkb.com/Uwe/Forums.aspx/windows-2000-networking/200802/1 Tag: dhcp client leases if server fails Tag: 234101

    - Remind me I asked this question about a year ago and I forgot to write down the answer. My oops. My L.A. network is extremely slow at local resolution. When I go to explorer to find a file on another computer it often takes several minutes for the drive to appear in the explorer window. Once it appears, then the connection works very fast, but until then you wait. Now I had been told that the problem originated in the network protocol because the network was waiting for a reply from a non-existent internet connection (apparently it sets this up by default) The solution was rather simple. All you needed to do was delete a registry key and every thing would work just fine after that. Problem is; I can't remember the key. Can anybody remind me?

    - Netbios name issues on AD server I have an active directory / wins / DNS server, Server1, which resolves to ip address 10.0.0.1. In its domain, I've got another server, Server2, which has the ip address 10.0.0.2. My problem is as follows: When I run nslookup on Server2, from Server1, the correct ip address is returned: 10.0.0.2. When I check the wins service on Server1, the correct ip address is returned: 10.0.0.2. If, however, I try to ping the name "Server2", it resolves to 10.0.0.1 -- which is actually Server1! Similarly, if I run nbtstat on "Server2, 10.0.0.1 is returned (incorrectly), but this time with Server2's MAC address! Any ideas at all? Tag: dhcp client leases if server fails Tag: 234088

    - Can't connect to a wireless network in Windows 2000 I cannot get a wireless network connected in Windows 2000 Pro. I have set up a home wireless network with a Netgear router and two computers, one Windows XP and the second a MACBook, both of which network connect OK. A third machine, an IBM Thinkpad running Windows 2000 Pro (SP4) is a problem. It has a Sweex PC card, which detects my network, but will not connect. It just says "waiting for peer...". One thing that concerns me is when I open "Network connections and Dial Up connnections" and right click the LAN icon labelled for the Wireless card. The menu shows no items for "View available wireless networks", "status" or "repair". In Windows XP, "Properties" gives access to the network password setting, but I do not get this access in Windows 2000 and so I cannot set the network password. (The network icon is labelled "Local area connection" , but shows "802.11g/b Wireless LAN Client Adapter" when the mouse hovers). Could someone give me advice on this problem?

    - disk cleanup I have an SBS 2003 server running a SQL database application off of it's "T" drive. If I run disk cleanup while database usage is high the system freezes, and then gives the blue screen of death. Assuming hardware is fine, is there any reason this would happen? Or is it best to not to a disk cleanup unless users are out of the database on that drive? Basically, I just want to know if it's normal for a disk cleanup to drain so much of the CPU's resources. All it was doing was compressing 40 MB of old files. Tag: dhcp client leases if server fails Tag: 234075

    - NDTG (NetDesicion Traffic Grapher) (MRTG/PRTG type application) The NetDecision Traffic Grapher (http://www.netmechanica.com/products/?prod_id=1022) monitors network and bandwidth usage as well as various other network parameters like memory usage and CPU utilization, providing system administrators with live readings and periodical usage trends to optimize the efficiency, layout, and setup of leased lines, switches, routers, firewalls, servers, and other network components. NetDecision Traffic Grapher is an easy to use software that monitors network parameters via SNMP or using custom scriptable polling agents. It allows you to quickly and easily set up and run a monitoring station for networks. With just a few mouse clicks you can log the amount of data flowing through routers, monitor CPU and RAM utilization, check disk space usage, etc. The most common case is monitoring the bandwidth usage of leased lines, routers, and firewalls via SNMP. You can also monitor many other aspects of your network environment and computer infrastructure. NDTG provides out-of-the-box graphs and dashboards for CPU utilization, memory usage, disk space usage, interface utilization, service response times, interface errors etc. This helps users gain better visibility into the performance of servers, routers and switches and the overall network. NDTG makes network performance monitoring effortless to set up and users can quickly get live, daily, weekly, monthly, annual or custom period graphs out-of-the-box. NDTG allows users to setup monitoring of custom SNMP MIB variables. Traffic Grapher makes network performance monitoring truly vendor- independent. You only need access to the SNMP MIBs provided by your vendor. Traffic Grapher allows you to monitor critical parameters of any device and setup thresholds. NDTG simplifies the process of setting up initial monitoring configuration by discovering network devices such as routers, switches, servers, printers etc automatically.

    - Network troubleshooting tips? (slow file transfer) I'm looking for some advice on how to troubleshoot a network I'm having some problems with. It's just a simple peer-to-peer, with about ten workstations. Most of the PCs are WinXP Pro but the PC I'm having problems with is our 'file' server and it has Win2K SP4 installed on it. It does very little else other than act as a File Server and a Daily Backup (automated). It's been fine for about two years but suddenly, and I mean very suddenly, the file copy time from one PC to another has increased dramatically. I have some automated jobs that copy a lot of files across the network (a couple hundred files, ranging in size from 5kb to 20mb) and this job used to take about 5-6 minutes. Now it takes over 20. Also, this network is 'isolated'; it has absolutely no Internet access (not even physically). Even so, I ran Spybot and an AV program to check and see if something had inadvertantly been added. These programs came up negative. I ran Network Monitor which showed that indeed the slowdown is with network traffic. At times, the data transfer speed is as low as 50-60kb/sec. Most of the network cards we use are 10mbs (a few are 100mbs). I've checked the task manager and it shows very little CPU usage even during the file transfers. I've checked the disk space and we're using only about 50gb out of the 150gb available. 528mb RAM, Pentium IV, some ASUS motherboard. Rebooted a couple of times, no joy. File copy 'within' the local drive (from Drive C t Drive C) is fine. I doubt that anyone has tinkered with the PC or the network settings as no one really has access to that room, and wouldn't know what to do to screw it up anyway. It's my job to screw it up. :) Ugh... I really, really, really get discouraged with Windows occasionally... Tag: dhcp client leases if server fails Tag: 234054

    - W2K3 Server Logon Script Question... I have 2 DC's in my environment. When I make a change to my logon.bat script on my main DC, it should automatically copy that file to the second DC so that the logon scripts are the same. I have noticed that it is not doing that on my network. Any clues? TIA, -TRogers Tag: dhcp client leases if server fails Tag: 234037

    - Windows 2000 Pro. sp4 crashes my router. I have a Airlink 101 AR680W 4 port/wireless router. I have 4 XP sp2 hardwired computers and 3 wireless laptops that work with no problem at all. If I plug in my Windows 2000 Pro. into the router it crashes the router. What I mean by "crash" is that all four of the lights that indicate traffic flow on each port blink at a very fast rate, you can still network on the LAN, but no-one can access the internet, it times out. This sometimes takes an hour or two to happen, other times it happens in seconds. If I unplug the Win. 2000 cable, reset the DSL modem and routher everything works again. I also plugged in a D-Link router and got the same results. I've looked at the MS knowledge base and found a few things that might have been the problem but the fixes didn't work for me. Any help is appriciated. Thanks, Dennis A. Halbasch Tag: dhcp client leases if server fails Tag: 234030

Hi there,
What happens to dhcp client leases if DHCP server fails, and lease
expiration is one day? Will they keep IP and all scope options until
server comes back and any fresh new PCs getting on the network will
not get any IP but will need manual configuration? Thanks, T
