    - connecting to the CONSOLE using mstsc command using - instead of / Server 2003 SP2 Hi, This one should be a no-brainer: Will the following commands do the EXACT same thing? mstsc /console mstsc -console I have some colleagues here who insists using mstsc /console & say mstsc -console is wrong. I've used mstsc -console for years and never had a problem. Yes, I have looked at the help associated with the command using mstsc /? and mstsc -? In fact, if this command didn't accept the "-" it would fail. Please help me settle this guys. Thanks Tag: WSUS Setting question Tag: 109979

    - Apple Macs connecting to SMB file shares I have several apple macs (10.4 & 10.5) connecting to files shares on our 2003 R2 server (which is a domain controller). They can connect fine using AFP (but files get truncated) and if I try to connect them via SMB you get several different errors relating to permission access or can not mount the volume but connecting via AFP is fine our via a PC. Now.......yesterday I setup a test share on the 2003 R2 domain member server, SMB connections worked perfectly. The share and folder permission were exactly the same as the original file server? I have tried also creating a new GPO and binded the macs to the domain and set the GPO to KB555652 which changes the digital signing of communications. I would prefer to keep the file shares on the main file server. Any ideas? Tag: WSUS Setting question Tag: 109959

    - Server 2008 Administrator permissions Hello, On a Windows Server 2008 DataCenter edition box, we've made a new user called ServerAdmin and put it in the Administrators Group. Now, the original Administrator account works fine, but the ServerAdmin account has issues. If you right click on My Computer and try to go to Manage, it says permission denied. If you simply try to open the C drive, it says permission denied. Yet, I can go into the properties of the C drive and change them, after assigning ownership to the Administrators group. But even after changing the ownership (and yes Administrators group has full control on the drive) I get the permission denied error when trying to access the drive. Since the original Admin account seems fine, it must be require something other than simply assigning users to the administrators group and having them act the same or what? Any help is appreciated! -B Tag: WSUS Setting question Tag: 109949

    - WinServer 2003 - Tired of italic font introduced with SP2 I am tired of *everything* being in italics in Windows Server 2003 SP2. As I access it through Remote Desktop, I cannot even use ClearType, so using apps strains my eyes more than necessary. Is there any way to get rid of it and use a normal font instead? Cheers ss.

    - Hyper V and Guest with intermittent RDP connections I have a Dell 2950 running server 2008 X64 that is giving me a heck of a time getting guests to run properly. The first issue is RDP coonections seem to drop on the host for no reason, a reboot clears this sometimes. I removed the host machine from the domain and that seemed to fix that problem along with a limited connectivity error I was getting on the hosts brodcoms NICs. I have two 2008 guests and two 2003 guests and all four of them have this limited connectivity issue. They can be added to the domain and can access the internet but RDP sessions are intermittent. I disabled the firewall on all the guests with no luck. On my host server I have one NIC dedicated with a static IP for RDP, when I installed the hyper v role I only checked the 2nd brodcom nic for it to use during the install so I cannot figure out why the network connectivity is so flaky.

    - Beta License getting ready to expire what now..? Ok I hope I'm not alone in this... I have the Beta 6001 build of Windows Server(R)2008 Standard and the product key I was given when loaded is about to expire. I went through my MSDN account and got a key generated for OS, however thekey is not being accepted as valid. I called support, they said they do not have a key for Windows Server 2008, there is an issue with this and they are aware of it. They suggested I call an activiation number to have my activiation extended, the people on this number had no idea as to what I was asking about. My question is simple, How do I go about getting a new product key w/o uninstalling and reinstalling the OS..? Thanks Tag: WSUS Setting question Tag: 109920

    - RPC dependant services wil not run I hope someone can enlighten me a bit as I have been unable to find a solution: I am running a Win 200 advanced server which cannot recieve updates except manually either on line or via WSUS. I am also running Terminal server with about 6 clients connecting who seem to be unaffected. BITS and several other services which list their dependency as the RPC service will not run most commonly with the "Error: 1068 the dependency group or service failed to start" the following services have other errors as well and will not run: Removeable Storage,--( error: 1083 the executable program that this service is configured to run in does not impliment the service) Routing and Remote Access, --,( error: 1083 the executable program that this service is configured to run in does not impliment the service) System Even Notification, --,( error: 1083 the executable program that this service is configured to run in does not impliment the service) Windows Service Pack installer service, --( Could not start... ...The service did not return an error. This could be an internal windows error or a service error.) I have looked everywhere for a solution to this but can find no documentation on how to approach this.

    - Everything went read only on NTFS Over the last weekend I tried to do a 1.5TB data migration from an old server to a new machine using xcopy. I didn't know about robocopy at the time. The old server is running Win2K3 ES. The new server is running Win2K3R2 ES. All the data copied but when it hit the destination all the permissions on the files were either gone or wrong. So I turned the shares on the older servers back on and figured I'd try it again this coming weekend. The problem is, on the OLD servers, all the data, files and folders has been set to read only. This is on two servers. Right clicking and going to properties won't let me remove the read only. Well, it acts like it's removing it but really does not. And, the attrib command will not let me remove read only. What the heck did I do and how do I fix it??? Thanks, -brian Tag: WSUS Setting question Tag: 109915

    - WDS Server Management Rights Hello, I currently have setup a working WDS server. I am a network administrator with domain admin rights and have no problem connecting to the services with the MMC snapin. Ideally we want the desktop support staff to connect using the MMC and manage the images instead of a net admin. When I have the support staff connect the MMC snapin says it cannot find the service on the selected server. It works when I add them to the local admin group on the server. It is not a desirable practice to add them to the local admin group on the server. WDS will be installed on some domain controllers in the smallers which do not have local groups. How do I give the support staff rights to manage WDS without giving them any type of Admin rights? Appreciate your help. Andy Tag: WSUS Setting question Tag: 109910

    - Upgrading Domain Controller with Standard SP1 to R2 - fails Recently i have been upgrading all the servers to R2 with the exception of DCs. Upon upgrading one dc it prompted me to update the schema which i did with adprep /forestprep. After i ran the setup to install R2- it asks for product key to enter (so it can update the old standard to standard R2) after i enter my R2 key it comes back with invalid key. Very strange since this same product key works on all other standard servers equipped with Standard SP1 that i converted to R2. I did a little investigating to see if this only happened on that specific dc, so i try to upgrade another different dc to R2 and after i enter the product key its says invalid. I verified with microsoft that the key is correct. Has anyone ever had this issue? any solution? thanks Tag: WSUS Setting question Tag: 109909

    - Robocopy and specific network adapters Hello I am setting up a script for robocopy and wondered if there is a way to tell robocopy to use a certain network adapter. I have dual adapters on both servers and want to use one from each connected to a gigabit switch (not connected to the network) for the file copy. I was thinking that I could specify the ip address I am using on each one like so. robocopy "\\172.21.1.200\file" "\\172.21.1.201\file" Would this be the proper way to specify the network adapters to use? The other adapters will be on the company network, while these 2 will not. Thanks Steve Tag: WSUS Setting question Tag: 109904

    - Windows 2003 Domain, domain computers clocks off by an hour I just upgraded from a windows 2000 domain server, to windows 2003. The member computers on the domain all run windows 2000. For some reason all the computers on the domain are exactly one hour slow. When I run the following command via netlogon net time \\s3a-56dmz01.s3a-upland.mydomain.com /set /yes the 2000 computers all sync however they show the time zone as +7 as opposed to +8. I've gone through and verified everyones time zone and that of the server. The windows 2003 domain controller (s3a-56dmz01) is set up to sync with an external time server as per kb 816042.

    - Windows Server 2003 DNS Server question We have a DNS Server running that is getting errors in the event log about being unable to connect to a domain controller. The thing is, we don't have a PDC, yet the server is set to join a domain. Does a DNS Server running Windows Server 2003 need to be a member of a domain, or can it be just in a workgroup? I checked the Configure Your Server log, and it was initially setup as a Domain Controller with Active Directory, but those were later removed along with the DNS server. The DNS server was immediately reinstalled, of course. Based on this information, I'm pretty sure it can be safely removed from the non-existent domain, but I would like to wait for confirmation.

    - Why do clents and my new E2k3 server that exists in the root forest I have a root domain 'parent.com'. I have a child domain 'child.parent.com'. Lately I've been noticing on my router syslogs that some of my XP clients on parent.com have been hitting the child ADC over tcp 389 and 88. Also, a new E2k3 server I built on parent.com last week is hitting/receiving traffic over tcp 3268 & 389 to/from the child ADC. Shouldn't this traffic be directed to the parent.com ADC/GC? I've also noticed that the E2k3 server is sending Echo requests to the child ADC about every 10 mins. I've checked my 2 parent ADC's and they are both GC's. Any help would be appreciated.

    - Moving a Terminal Server Licensing Server Hi all. Looking for a quick answer: I have a client with a Terminal Server with TS licensing installed on the TS itself. Because the TS is malfunctioning, we are replacing it, but before doing so we need to install TS Licensing on the domain controller and migrate the licenses. Can anyone tell me the easiest way to do this so as to ensure we don't lose the previously activated licenses? Thanks in advance! Jamie Tag: WSUS Setting question Tag: 109881

    - Windows 2008 & Win XP Client blues - Network name cannot be found Hi, everyone! I've just installed Windows 2008 Enterprise in a Virtual PC 2007 virtual machine. The server is set up as a PDC with it's own domain forrest, and has a DNS server. DNS resolves Ok, but I have 2 major issues. 1) If connecting to/from WinXP / Windows 2003 computer, the network share is visible, but I cannot copy files. The operation fails after a few seconds, with the "Network name cannot be found" (or "is not available") error. This works OK, if the client is Vista, so I presume it's a SMB 2.0 issue. Any hints on how to force the w2k8 box to use SMB 1.0? 2) From the w2k8 box, I cannot browse to www.microsoft.com, www.mozilla.com, and a few other international sites. DNS resolution works fine (ping is ok), website is found, but I get stuck on the "waiting for response". Local (in my country) sites work fine; everything works fine from other computers in my main domain. Help would be appreciated.

    - Any network performance impact by MSMQ hi all, THank you for your help in advance. I am not familliar with MSMQ. But I just found out there was a MSMQ with AD Integration installed by a third party program product support. In fact, before finding this happen, there have been some strange things happening. Some of the PCs were freezing (or slow) for couple minutes some times a week. Besides, when the only a promary DC rebooted, the client lost the domain connection (but we have a secondary one running), which this never happened before. Any ideas or inputs?

    - Printer Server and Client Drivers This might be a shot in the dark, but we recently created a new windows print server running on Server 2003 R2, to take over for our aged server 2000 print server. All the queues seem to work and you can print to the printers on the new server just fine. However, we have a very simple script that runs on various machines to add a default printer. This script has always worked just fine with the old server, but when we change the script to point to the new server (just replacing the server name because the print queue names are the same on both) we sometimes (NOTE I said SOMETIMES) get a script error of "The remote procedure call failed". Also, if the script fails, and you run it manually after finishing the logon (the script is a logon script) then it will generally work fine. We went round and round on this and finally ran a packet sniffer on the traffic. One thing we noticed is that one the failed attempts, the client seems to be trying to download a printer driver from the new server. Hard to say from the packet capture if it was successful, but we HAVE determined that even though the new server has a much newer print driver, the clients always use the older driver they apparently downloaded from the old server. We've also received occasional reports of people adding printers from the new server and not getting a driver properly. My questions are this: 1.) Is there anything I need to do to allow the print server to download drivers? Is there anything (permissions etc) that could interfere with that? 2.) If a client has an older driver than the one the server has, will it attempt to download the newer one? If so, how often will it attempt it? Every time it tries to add the printer?

    - Add Printer to All Users? Hello, We don't use roaming profiles. We are testing out using a Windows print server, however, we found out that the Windows printers are dependent on the user profile of the logged in person. So the help desk can't install printers logged in as themselves because when the user logs in the printers aren't there. Is there any way to get around this so that printer installs would be workstation associated and not associated with a particular user? We are also concerned about when a user logs into a workstation other then there own they won't have any printers. Could printers be associated somehow to "All Users" or the workstation so that whoever logs in will get the printers? Thanks for any suggestions! Kathy Tag: WSUS Setting question Tag: 109807

    - Remote Desktop Disconnected - error in data encryption I am on a Microsoft Windows Vista x86 SP0 system and I just created a Microsoft Standard Server X64 and I am remotely connecting to it. I am getting an error and losing network connection: Remote Desktop Disconnected Because of an error in data encryption, this session will end. Please try connecting to the remote computer again. OK Help. I click OK On Control Panel, System, Remote Settings, System Properties for the Remote tab, I have selected Allow connections from computers running any version of Remote Desktop (less secure), and then I changed it to Allow connections only from computers running Remote Desktop with Network Level Authentication (more secure). I have changed it to NLA and it doesn't matter which one I go to. I am not sure what is happening or why this is happening. I just built these yesterday and I did the updates and they are on the same switch and in the same server room as other systems, and they were Server 2003 Standard x64 systems but I formatted the drives. They only got new software, everything else, hardware, wires, etc. all stayed the same. Tag: WSUS Setting question Tag: 109792

cleartext)' checkbox on the Proxy Server Tab of the Update Source and Proxy
Server settings in Options does not remain checked. This is only happening on

recheck that box and immediately do another sync.

Hi,

I am not sure the answer because I haven't had this issue. However you may
try posting in the forum for WSUS called microsoft.public.softwareupdatesvcs

It is under Windows Server - Management - Software Update Services

Cheers,
Lara
