Installing DFS on a Transitioned Small Business Server
Hi All,
Up until recently, we were running Small Business Server 2003 R2. We have
now installed the transition pack on this server to now make it a full
Windows 2003 Server (R2 I assume)
I want to use the R2 version of DFS as we have branch offices that will
benefit greatly from this but I cannot install Distributed File System from
the Add/Remove Windows Components.
Can someone please help me get DFS on this server? Tag: domain www.todo-pc.com for sale Tag: 115967
Using SMS 2003 for workstation installations
Am new to SMS. To do a client push of an application silently onto
workstations using SMS, must I use an MSI package? Can the vendor simply
supply an installation exe that requires no user interaction to install the
app onto a remote workstation thru SMS?
Thanks for any and all ideas,

Upgrade Windows 2003 Standard to Enterprise (In-Place upgrade)
I am checking to see if in-place upgrade is available from windows 2003
standard to enterprise. If we do so, will data (it's a SQL server) be
preserved or such in-place upgrade is not suggested, or too much risk?
Thanks for the advise. Tag: domain www.todo-pc.com for sale Tag: 115957
Windows Live Communication Server 2005 - Web Access
Having some problems with LCS 2005 web access whilst trialing it for
production use.
I'm getting an error 1 when logging on, and various websites have pointed
towards a problem with the certificate. Now I'm not a big fan of
certificates, and will admit to not knowing much about the implementation
with Certificate Services in Svr 2003.
I've requested a certificate from the CA with the name of the FQDN machine
with web access installed on it. Could anyone give me some advice or a
resource that has step-by-step guides on how to implement both Web Access
and LCS 2005. Tag: domain www.todo-pc.com for sale Tag: 115952
Change all admin account descriptions?
We already have a GPO in place to rename all our local administrator
accounts to another name, but the problem is someone can still tell straight
off (i know the SID could give it away too) that it's the admin account
since it's description still says it's the administrator account... is there
anyway to change this local admin description though a GPO or simple script
on a remote computer to say something different? thanks! Tag: domain www.todo-pc.com for sale Tag: 115951
Print spooler
Another IT guy came in to remove a Print Spooler T virus from my customer's
server. Now when I try to reload a print driver the systems tells me that
the print spooler service is not started. When I go to services to start her
print spooler I get the message:
Could not start the print spooler.
Error3: The system cannot find the path specified.
Can you point me in the right direction?

Interact with a program
I am at a loss, we have a program for scheduling rooms. I would like to make
the scheduler interactive. Right now the program is used by an office staff.
The objective is to have the schedule appear on a website and have the users
view the schedule for room availability. The program has the capabilities
for doing so but I do not know how to go about it. What I would really like
is to have an embedded code on the web page to gain access to view the
scheduler. I guess the question is what do I need equipment wise? How would
I access it through the internet? Tag: domain www.todo-pc.com for sale Tag: 115944
Creating log in Performance Monitor for Multiple Win2k3 Servers
I'm a newbie in Performance Monitor. I have to create one which is the same

Apart from going from Start> Programs> Admin Tools> Performace> Counter
Logs> Create new log and add the counters manually in each server, is there
any better/ faster method that I can create a log to every servers? a script
or whatever...sorry but I just dont have any idea.

Slow logon via RDP - CopyProfileDirectoryEx
<-- Copy from microsoft.public.windows.server.terminalservices JC -->
Hi there. I'm troubleshooting some problems we're seeing with slow

I've been trying limit the files/dirs that are contained in the Roaming
Profile but compared to the 1:20 or so this function takes, the file
copy/reconciliation is taking only 10-20 secs.
I've testing this on both Windows 2K3 SP1 and SP2 machines. I'm assuming
the hotfix contained in KB899409 is included in SP2 since the version of
ntlanman.dll is way higher than the hotfix.
I've cranked up userenv to 30002 but that doesn't give me anything more
than
10002 ?
Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions ?

Installation locks up eating memory
Hi
I posted a few days ago about a problem with SBS2003 fresh install locking
up during server tools setup on Internet Explorer 6.0 installtion. I had a
reply saying it was probably due to an active internet connection. Since
this i have installed a brand new harddrive and pulled the plug on the
router while attempting the setup. Again the initial part of the setup is
fine, its when it gets to the actual server configuration. Its gets as far
as installing server tools, the message says its doing internet explorer
6.0. Ive left it at this point for several hours and it gets no futher. A
look in the process list shows the setup process is just eating more and
more memory. After a few hours it was up past 1gb of memory.
I searched the harddrive for what was growing as i was also loosing
harddrive space during this point. It turned out it was a log file
(eventlog.txt) it keeps adding the same lines over and over again - these
are
[07/04/08,09:37:38] Setup.exe: GetCustomProperties()

Ive got lots more logs, but i cant attach them as the message is too big
then. The only other thing that mmight be of use was the errorlog.txt -
this has the following in

Printer deployment
Hi,
I have a problem with some printer. I deployed 3 printers on Windows 2k3 R2
using print management, it all worked fine printers were deployed. I have
subsequently had to replace a printer as it reached the end of it's life, I
have replaced the printer and deployed it OK however I am unable to remove
the old printer, in Print Management I have removed the printer but it still
appears on all desktops it was deployed to, if I delete the printers from the
PC they reappear.
Is there any way I can completely remove the printers so they do not install
themselves.
Thanks,

Problem with Microsoft WHEA Logger after migrating to 2008

since we reinstalled our domain Controller in Windows 2008, we have

domain change - copy user profiles
If I remove an XP client from one active directory domain and then join the
same client to another one, is there a way to copy the profile so that the
programs and icons will stay the same? I know how to copy profiles in the
XP client, I'm just wondering if it works when you remove from a domain and
then join a completely different one.

boot problem
Hi
I have windows XP pro on my current system "c:/windows" SATA DRIVE 250GB
I have installed another "D:/" SATA drive and copied windows 2003 server
image.
Bios have boot option "SATA Drive" only no option of disk selection along
with other floppy/cd options.
Problem is I cannot use dual boot. If I disbale first drive which have win
xp then I can boot and run windows 2003 server if I enable first drive it
goes to XP not giving me any option to boot through win 2003.
I have tried to change boot.ini but no luck
Can any one guide me how I can use as dual boot . What entries should I do
to use boot ini.
My Currrent boot.ini something like this.
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOW S
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Micro soft Windows XP
Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect
multi(1)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Windo ws Server 2003,
Enterprise" /noexecute=optout /fastdetect
I have tried this soloution as well.
Enable both drives.
Insert Windows XP bootable cd into your CD Rom drive and boot from it.
At the first prompt select second option "Press "R" to enter recovery
console"
You'll be asked for Administrator's password, if any.
Select you Window Xp installation by enter number 1 or 2, when prompted.
You are now on command line.
Type following command
Code:
bootcfg /addYou'll be asked "Which windows installation do you want to add?"
Select the installation, in your case Window server 2003, to add in the
list.
Reboot your system.

Page File out of Space
Hello,
We inhereted a configuration with two hard drives configured on one
controller with a capacity of 75Gb total.
32Gb is being used for the OS mirrored. The drive has been partitioned in
order to seperate the page file from the OS with 45Gb.
Currently the page file is running low with only 11Mb left in use. Is there
a way to fix the problem of why would it use up all the paging? We recently
loaded up the server with 4Gb of RAM from running only on 2Gb.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

Robocopy job errorl with "The handle is invalid" on a large (161GB)
I'm trying to use robocopy to do a restartable-copy (/ZB) of a backup
image from my server to a full-disk encrypted (truecrypt) hard drive.
Whenever robocopy gets to 94.4% of the file though, it starts bombing
out saying that "The handle is invalid." The whole message is...
-----------------------------------------
2008/07/07 14:25:20 ERROR 6 (0x00000006) Copying File \\server\share
\file
The handle is invalid.
Waiting 30 seconds... Retrying...
-----------------------------------------
It just sits there and keeps retrying. If I kill the job and try to
restart it, it starts over from the begining, the /ZB switch isn't
working.
Is there some size limit for robocopy? I could have sworn that I've
copied files larger than this with no problem, but this one just won't
take.
For reference, I'm copying from sbs2003 SP2 to vista SP1.
Any ideas???

What is the Software Distribution Directory?
We have a Windows 2003 Server DC and I was looking at the used space. While

Windows cannot obtain the domain controller name for your computer network
"Windows cannot obtain the domain controller name for your computer network.
(An unexpected network error occurred)
Group Policy processing aborted."
This is from the Application log of the server itself (SBS2003)! Repeats
every 5 minutes. Have spent ages trying to find solution without success. I
suspect it has to do with MS Virtual PC 2007. I need it to run tests on
Windows 2000, XP and Vista without having to have any more hardware.
Typically have 2 or 3 virtual PCs running at the same time. They also report
Winlogon and Browser failures but browse network fine. Some are domain
members others are on the same name workgroup.
Server otherwise functions OK with occasional slowness in web browsing
probably due to DNS issues when it forgets its own name. It sits on the
green channel of IPcop Linux based router and is itself the DHCP server.
Making IPcop the DHCP server makes no difference.
Any ideas? Tag: domain www.todo-pc.com for sale Tag: 115893
creating schtasks to run for a date range every month
I am attempting to use schtasks to create some scheduled tasks to run
on a monthly basis but am having trouble figuring out the right syntax
to get the desired behavior. Basically, I want to run a batch file
every day (during the desired date range) starting at a specific
time. Some examples:
I want a batch file to run every 23rd-30th of each month,
starting at 1:00am.
I want a batch file to run every 23rd-30th of each month,
starting at 10:00am.
I want a batch file to run every 15th-21st of each month,
starting at 1:00am.
I want a batch file to run every 15th-21st of each month,
starting at 10:00am.
The day-of-month range would be the same every month. There doesn't
appear to be a way to specify more than one day, or a day range with
the /d parameter. Is the only way to accomplish this to create a
separate scheduled task for each day of my desired range? Thanks in
advance for any help.

Quickie on DHCP Split Scope and reservations
Hi
I am setting up 80/20 split DHCP
I have a range 10.140.0.1 to 10.140.9.254 which I have setup on both servers
Server 1 has exclusion of 10.140.8.1 to 10.140.9.254 (80% server)
Server 2 has exclusion of 10.140.0.1 to 10.140.7.254 (20% server)
My question is if I need a reservation for a clicnt with IP say 10.140.0.50
I would obviously set this up on Server 1 but what about server 2 as this
address is excluded?
What happens to if server 1 is offline?

Upgrading Windows CA Authority
Hi,
I have a windows 2000 CA that I want to remove from the network. I
want to replace this with a 2003 CA but the standard process poses
some problems
The MS suggested Upgrade/Migration process states
1. Upgrade the 2000 CA to 2003 before migration - the problem here for
me is the 2000 DC is very old and I'm fairly confident it wouldn't be
sufficient for W2003
2. The new CA should have the same name as the old CA - I already have
all the required servers setup and running. Further I would prefer not
to have a server named the same as the old one.
My question is - considering my preferred network setup requires that
I move to a new server with a different name I was thinking that I
would follow the process http://support.microsoft.com/kb/889250 to
remove the CA that is currently installed on the 2000 DC/CA, remove
the 2000 DC/CA then install a brand new 2003 CA on a different server
with a different name.
Can anyone tell me if there are any implication when doing this.
Note: The only Certificate I have manually configured is a Certificate
that has been installed for use with Exchange 2003 Outlook Web Access

If I disable remote access than also /console switch doesn't work, but if I

2008 Backup - Device Error?
Hello Technet,
When running Windows Server Backup from the Server Manager (2008) -
selecting VSS full or copy backup, it reaches around 3.8gb on C: then fails
with an "I/O device error". We've tried saving to alternate disks and network
locations, as well as running wbadmin, same error message. It appears to be
failing during the System State backup.
Server has been restarted, and checked for any more recent updates, but
there is no change. I've found reference to this particular error in Vista
where the solution was to go to System Protection and disable Shadow Copy on
the drives, then re-enable - though I cannot see the System Protection area
in 2008. Shadow Copies are not currently enabled on any drive in the server,
and still no change in the error message.
Is there another way to fix this problem?
Many thanks,

Win2k3 Standard File Server - Missing Data
Hello all,
I've got a Win2k3 Std SP2 file/member server in an SBS2k3 domain. This file
server developed an issue where it would not connect itself to the domain.
This was fixed easily with a repair reinstall, but an important issue remains:
The file server uses 2 HDD which are mirrored. The HDD is partitioned into
the normal system/boot partition, with a logical D drive where user data are
staged.
Following the OS repair/reinstall, data files for about a 6-month chunk of
time simply no longer appeared on the data partition. Also lost was any kind
of data file on the boot partition, such as app license files, for example.
Nothing was done to attempt to restore the file server to a previous date
checkpoint, or LNG, or anything of that nature. Simply the OS
repair/reinstall. Of note is that VSS was not enabled for any of the
partitions at this time, or previously. I have combed the drives for the MIA
files with no joy. Also have run forensic data recovery on the partitions,
with absolutely nothing showing up as deleted or similar for the chunk of
time in question.
Am at a bit of a loss right now as to how to proceed from here to find and
restore the missing files. I tend to think they must be somewhere. Am I
wrong? Any advice or assistance in how to proceed would be much appreciated.
TIA,
