    - Exchange Server C Drive out of SPACE!! We are currently running Exchange 2003 on a server with mirrored 18GB SCSI hard drives. As you probably guessed, the drives are filling up with the logs as the Database is stored on the D drive. Is there a way to break the mirror on the Boot drive, insert a bigger hard drive and remirror on a bigger drive and not lose any of our data or have to reinstall?? Any help would be greatly appreciated! -- jasongrubbs ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jasongrubbs's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/member.php?userid=47991 View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/showthread.php?t=960657 http://forums.techarena.in Tag: Test for a particular open file?

    - TS NLB 've inherited a terminal services nlb cluster. I just want to confirm the configuration. cluster.dom.tld == a.b.c.200 ts7 nic1 == a.b.c.98, def gw == a.b.c.1 nic2 == nlb cluster address == a.b.c.200 dedicated ip == a.b.c.101 ts8 nic1 == a.b.c.99, def gw == a.b.c.1 nic2 == nlb cluster address == a.b.c.200 dedicated ip == a.b.c.102 ts9 nic1 == a.b.c.95, def gw == a.b.c.1 nic2 == nlb cluster address == a.b.c.200 dedicated ip == a.b.c.100 Also, in dns all three servers have two dns entries, one pointing to the nic1 address, another pointing to the dedicated ip address. This seems wrong to me, can someone confirm? Question regarding dedicated ip address in unicast mode: should it be the ip address listed in nic1/the non-nlb nic? Thanks!

    - Pesky Profile Problem Due to some weird things occuring with a user's account, I decided to delete the profile. Of course, that means deleting it from the profile storage location on the server, deleting the profile on the XP PC in profiles and removing the profile path in the user's account. At this point, no trace of a previous profile should exist. Yet, when the user logs in, desktop icons from the previous profile re-appear and a shortcut (that points to a mapped server drive) still has a .dll error. Repeating this process, I had the user login to a computer never used by him previously. I repeated the deletion steps. He logs in. Same problem. It has to be pulling this down from some location. But I can't think of where that might be coming from AND the status of his profile is local -- not roaming. Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks! Tag: Test for a particular open file? Tag: 112344

    - IP Security Policies wont all DNS 53 pass through ? Hi, On Windows 2003 64 bit server i run the following test telnet <dns ip> 53 i connect ok to a remote dns server. I created a PACKET FILTER policy. Within this policy i have created the RULE "DNS". Within this rule i have a DNS filter. Filter is setup as follows: source = any ipaddress destination = any ip address protocol = tcp from = any to = 53 saved/applyed I now assigned the policy and try telnet <dns ip> 53 It fails to connect to the remote DNS server. If i unasigned the policy it works again. Why does my policy fail to allow DNS to pass through ? (Have used gpudate to flush just incase but ASSIGN then UNASSIGN clearly shows the 2 states failing / working). Thanks for any advice. Scott Tag: Test for a particular open file? Tag: 112342

    - 2 windows 2003 DC hang problem Hello. IÂ´ve two windows 2003 std DC. This two DC are DNS servers of the lan. One of the servers has Exchange 2003. At 5 days ago iÂ´ve done an upgrade to 4 GB (maximum supported by windows 2003 std) to the server with Exchange 2003, and since that the server hangs, and do not generate any error in event viewer. The system freeze. All the client computers are Windows XP Professional, and are configured by DHCP and know the 2 DNS. When the server with Exchange 2003 goes down, iÂ´ve problems with users authentication (logon). I think the other server should kepp users authentications and computers working ok in the lan, but when users try to logon, the request fails ! IÂ´ve checked the AD and DNS replication and no problems were found. Why the other server does not respond to the client logon request? The problem of "system freeze" can be related with the quantitiy of 4 Gb of memory (i,ve already changed the DIMMS)? IÂ´ve done hardware diagnostic with HP smartstart CD, but no problems wer found.. Please, someone, help. Thanks in advance. Tag: Test for a particular open file? Tag: 112327

    - Print Server Hangs We have a Win 2k3 SP2 R2 server, Dual 1400 Mhz, 2 gb RAM. It is hosting right around 200 Lexmark printers. (Its only purpose in life) Out of the blue, it will hang and nobody can print to it anymore. When you go to the console or RD to it it is basically unresponsive. What we have found is in the task manager "lmabcoms.exe" runs at %99 to %100 usage and is the culprit. A hard reboot and it is peachy again for a couple of days. During normal operation, lmabcoms.exe does not take any CPU cycles, just chugs along in task manager. I am wondering if anyone else has similar problems using Lexmark printers hosted from a print server. We are in constant communication with Lexmark about the issue but they have not been able to solve it yet. We have rebuilt the server from scratch on several different hardware platforms and continue to have the same problem. lmabcoms.exe is the process for the Lexmark Enhanced Port and Lexmark Network Port, at least thats what Lemark and our researching point to. We have even had Lemark send us their latest and greatest version of lmabcoms.exe. Any ideas? Tag: Test for a particular open file? Tag: 112286

    - Redirecting users Hi, I'm not sure if if this is the right forum but here goes. I have a problem in that I have a load of Word documents with attached templates that are on a now defunct server. The problem is that Word now hangs for a long time looking for its template on non-existent server(it has been moved to a new server). Further investigation showed that this location is hardcoded in the Word document. A guy called Terry Farrell on the Word discussion group said that the only solution is to use the Windows Server Redirect command to redirect any requests for templates on the dead server to the new location. Can anyone tell me how to do this? Also, where would any code go? in a login script? Any help would be much appreciated as this is causing a real problem for my users, Thanks, Chris Tag: Test for a particular open file? Tag: 112283

    - Permission on Files/Folders I had a typo in the subject...re-posting my question: Using a command line tool such as XCACLS.exe, XCACLS.vbs, SetACL or a similar tool, can we change the permissions so one user/group can only list files but not read them (to see how big the files are)...Effectively, list on all folders and contents but no read access...Is that possible perhaps with a combination of allow/revoke?

    - When you have to backtrack and downgrade a DC Okay, so I have this book from Microsoft that's basically a guide to get from NT 4.0 to Server 2003. Of particular interest is the section where they talk about going back to an NT DC if there's and installation error or something. Now basically the procedure is: Keep a BDC off line just in case. When something goes wrong, take all 2003 DCs off the network Promote the BDC to a PDC. And I would imagine this works fine if no computer had ever logged on to the new domain. But say you got everything up and running just fine on 2003 and a few days later decided you needed to go back to NT for some reason. This is the scenario I'm trying to simulate. And whenever I do this simulation, I can indeed put the domain back to the NT machine, but any computer that's 2000 or newer that has logged onto the new domain will not log back into the NT version. (specifically because it adopts the DNS naming structure of my new domain name). NT machines, of course, do revert back to the old domain with no problems that I can see. So is there any particular way to get one of these machines that's logged in to the 2003 domain to revert back to the NT domain without having to manually rejoin the domain on each computer?

    - Delete cached local copy of mandatory profile and non roaming domain user profiles ? Hi. We are currently looking to deploy some Windows XP workstations on a 2003 Domain for development purposes. We are using a mix of mandatory profiles and general domain users that have NO roaming or mandatory profile. We are finding that the XP workstations are storing a local copy of the mandatory profiles and the gerneral domain user accounts as well. Can anyone confirm whether Windows should automatically remove Mandatory profiles when the user logs off, and if so can anyone suggest why a copy of the profiles are being left behind ? Similarly can anyone recommend how we can allow users with a basic domain user account (no roaming or mandatory profile) to logon to our XP workstations such that their locally created profile is automatically deleted when they logoff ? i.e. no matter the user type (even domain admin if possible) we would like to remove any locally stored user profiles. Thanks, Alex. Tag: Test for a particular open file? Tag: 112270

    - Configuring Local Exchange POP3 / Dns Problems I am using Windows 2003 Enterprise which is overkill but we are running a specialized application that will not run on Windows Server small business. I have installed Exchange 2003 and plan to use iGetmail. My problem lies that I have evidently configured something wrong with DNS. My server name is topdog and my domain name is the same to which I will be receiving email. Now when I go to my server and attempt to use it, it doesnt recognize it as an internet address and comes back with a reply from its local address 192.168.1.101. Therefore when I configure the iGetmail program it doesn't recognize my mail server. This is probably over kill for a small office, but something I want to do and have some shared mailboxes, etc. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks. Tag: Test for a particular open file?

    - Rights to run Server Manager from client? When we ran a Windows 2000 domain, I could appoint a certain number of selected staff members as "Server Operators". This enabled them to use Server Manager to disconnect sessions for students who had not logged off properly.

However when clicking on a Member Server, the message "Access is denied" is displayed As administrator equivalent I can get into both DC and Member server. It just affects "Server Operators". Client computers are Windows XP SP2. The server manager executable is V5.2.3790.1127. In all cases, SVRMGR.EXE is kicked off from the server share, not workstation (ie. \ \server02\reskit\srvmgr.exe) Is there some sort of security setting that I need to check on the Member server?

    - Pemission on Files/Folders Using a command line tool such as XCACLS.exe, XCACLS.vbs, SetACL or a similar tool, can we change the permissions so one user/group can only list files but not read them (to see how big the files are)...Effectively, list on all folders and contents but no read access...Is that possible perhaps with a combination of allow/revoke?

    - Access Denied to COM Security using Admin Account Hello, I was hardening the security of my windows server and i read the document about MSDTC that if you don't need it then disable. And this is exactly what I did. I stopped and disabled MSDTC service. And then i removed Anonymous Logon & Everyone permisson (Local Access & Remote Access) under component service for COM security. I restarted the server, logged in as Administrator and got access denied to most of the tasks such as creating users or adding users to group. The worst thing is that i can't even Right-Click on any object to check the properties. I tried to bring back the permission on the COM security but failed as Iâ??m getting access denied though Iâ??m logged in as administrator. Tried to restart MSDTC service but unsuccessful because i can't even right-Click on it. The event log is showing the following error. I can't read the detail message since right-click is not working. so Iâ??m posting the basic errors. System Logs: LsaSrv --> Event ID 40960 Datascrn--> Event ID 3 Application Logs: SRMSVC--> Event ID 8203 USERENV--> Event ID 1110 USERENV--> Event ID1090 ccsetmgr--> Event ID 48 Event System--> Event ID 4609 COM+ --> Event ID 4691 Does any one know how can i reset the COM Security permission and restart the MSDTC service? Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks Tag: Test for a particular open file? Tag: 112246

    - How does Licensing Work I am curious about how the licensing works. I have a server that is running Windows Server 2003 and MSSql Server 2000. We have five user machines running XP. If I understand correctly, Win2003 and MSSql come with 5 Client licenses. What if I need to add another user? We don't use Active Directory are anything like that. We are only using the server to host the database that our application connects to. So, if I need to add a sixth user, do I need more licenses for Win 2003 AND MSSql? And what about Terminal Services? I am thinking maybe of moving our users over to Linux/Mac computers and having them access that one application via TS. How does that work in regards to licenses? And do I really need to setup another Windows 2003 machine to host the TS License Server????? Thanks. Griff Tag: Test for a particular open file? Tag: 112237

    - Do I need a WINS server in a XP, W2K3 DC network? Hi all, We have migrated our network from NT4 to W2K and recently to W2K3 Servers Active Directory and at each step I ask myself: Do we really need a WINS server at all? It is supposed the DNS server does the work. Nowadays our network is comprised of XPs, a few W98 PCs which will be replaced in the next weeks, a few W2K servers (non DC) and W2K3 DC servers. The AD was raised to W2K3 level. Do I really need a WINS server? Thanks in advance Sammy Tag: Test for a particular open file? Tag: 112223

    - VSS Catastrophic Failures Hi, Server 2003 R2 x64 SP2, Exchange Server 2007 SP1. KB940349 has been applied and resolved issues with our JetDB writers. We're having problems getting VSS to take snapshots for Shadow Copies and backups. It is now specific to the Exchange VSS Writer. We had BackupExec 12 installed and couldn't do an Exchange backup without having catasrophic errors. I have since switched to ArcServe 11.5 SP3 and the last Exchange backup went successfully. ShadowCopy snapshots however are still failing. After a clean reboot of the server, I can manually take a shadow copy snapshot and it completes successfully. I took one last night before the backup without issue. This morning I checked and the 7am scheduled snapshot didn't show up in the list. I checked the status of the VSS writers, and they're all Online with a normal status.

    - 3TB Raid, one 2048GB partition, will not let me create a 900GB one? Hi there. A year ago or so we built this monster server for files with a RAID-5 array it has just about 3TB of disk in it total. I just noticed today in Disk Management that we actually only partitioned 2048GB of it (I guess the limit for a single filesystem?) and that there is almost a 900GB 'unallocated space' block sitting there unused. Windows will not allow me to create an additional partition in that 900GB space. Any advice? -Drew Tag: Test for a particular open file? Tag: 112213

Try this:
net file | find /i "xxx.doc"
where "xxx.doc" is the name of the file you're after.
