    - Directory Shares stop responding on Server 2008 I have a new Server 2008 server that is providing file services. After a few hours the directory/user shares slowly stop working user by user until no users can access the shares. There are no errors in the Event Log. The only fix is to restart the server. But, the problem returns after a few hours. Does anyone know what the problem is? Tag: enterprise 2003 to 64bit enterprise Tag: 117974

    - keep getting kicked out Hi, We have a Microsoft Server 2003 with 3 computers (XP Pro) connecting via a LAN to synchronise files in the shared folders. There is also a Draytek Vigor 2800 router for internet access with a static IP and DHCP disabled. The server is giving out the IP's for the client computers but about twice a day the clients are going 'Off Line', they loose their IP address (it reverts to 169.xxx....) and are unable to access the server or get onto the internet or print (The printer is set up through the server). I have tried giving the clients static IP's but the same thing happens anyway. I have also tried disabling and enabling the LAN connection on the clients. I can log on to the router from outside the LAN which has it's own static WAN and LAN IP but the server is not pingable (timed out). I reboot the server and the clients are then given an IP and we are back up and running. I have checked the Event Viewer but there doesn't seem to be anything relevant and there certainly isn't anything that relates to the times the connection is lost. 2 of the clients that are always on loose the connection about 5 minutes apart. One computer will say it is off line and 5 minutes later the other one will loose it too. First, I would like any advice about what might cause this on the server because I am sure rebooting it twice a day isn't normal. Also, could I take DHCP away from the server and give it to the Router instead? Why do they loose connection even when they have a static IP? Because of this I don't think getting the IP from the Router will make any difference. When the server decides it wants to close it's connection it will. Any advice greatly appreciated.

    - Removing term'd employees from AD What's the best way to remove terminated employees from AD? I'm talking about doing this on a domain that has never been cleaned up, not just one employee. I exported all the users from AD to a CSV file. And I have, from HR, a list of current employees, in an Excel file. But I am looking for some type of automated method to compare the two.

    - Giving contract developer access I'm a small business owner which makes me the System Administrator of my web and database servers. In the past I've given contractors Administrative rights when they used the machines, but now I'm starting to use developers from other countries and they are logging in via the WAN. My question is there a way to give a contractor access to the machine to create SQL databases, websites, create directories, change file permissions, etc. without being an administrator, and even blocking access to files I don't want them to? I thought Power Users would be best, but I've been told thats a no-no. Sincerely, Hugh Tag: enterprise 2003 to 64bit enterprise Tag: 117961

    - Server Standard 2003; I want more than 4gb ram! I asked a question earlier about installing Server Standard 64-bit, but no one told me if I can use the same license for both editions. Second, is there a way to run more than 4gb of ram on the 32-bit version. It seems pretty arbitrary that the enterprise version can use /PAE and Standard can't. Is there some sort of 3rd party software that can do this? I don't need all the extra stuff that enterprise comes with, nor do I want to pay that much for it. Thanks for your time!

    - Folder Redirection So, I set up the Default Domain Policy under Group Policy Management in Server Manager in Windows Server 2008 for Folder Redirection. The settings I chose were Basic (Redirect everyone's folder to the same location), and under Target Folder Location, "Create a folder for each user under the root path" was chosen. The Root Path is set as \ \SageRealtyDC.SageRealty.local\SageRealtyUsers. I set up SageRealtyUsers as a Share and gave Everyone Full Control. From most of what I read on the subject of Folder Redirection, this should create a folder in the SageRealtyUsers folder when the user logs in using this new policy for the first time, and copy the My Documents folder there. That is not happening. Am I assuming wrong? Do I need to manually create the user folders myself? Tag: enterprise 2003 to 64bit enterprise Tag: 117958

    - Windows 2003 DHCP Server Hello all I am hoping you can help me. I have just migrated from Netware DHCP to Windows 2003 DHCP. We are one of the departments in a county that need some access to resources in the Main Downtown Office - Timesheet and Fiscal stuff - but for the most part we host all of our own services. This system has been in place for 2 or 3 years and works good until the migration of DHCP services this last Friday. All of our stuff locally works great and the server gives all of the IP info we need however we cannot load web based apps that connect to to our downtown office anymore. What is wierd is if I go to some of the problem PCs and type in the TCPIP info manually, I can get to the apps we need just fine, it is only when we allow those PCs to accept the DHCP address that nothing works. We use DNS Forwarding for the downtown domain, and I also have to push their WINs serves addresses form our DHCP server to have everything work, but as I said this system has been working great until the DHCP migration. I can ping all of the servers both by name and IP, we need on their system only if I type the TCPIP information manually on any PC on our network, if we allow DHCP to give the same TCPIP information we cannot ping them at all. I think I am missing a piece of the puzzle but am not sure what it is and was hoping you all could help us put our finger on it.

    - SPA 2.0 (Server Performance Advisor) As a replacement to the oild PerfMon, SPA is a very good monitoring tool. I am currently running SPA Data Collector scans daily on some servers which send their data to a dedicated SPA Report server. Now I want to graduate to using SQL so that I can ty out the SPA Trending feature. The Help File item for Trending is fairly brief: "To set up trending, right-click a data collector group, and then click Properties. Under Report Trending Database, type the name of the SQL database where you want to store the trend data, and then type the NetBIOS name of the SQL server that hosts the database." I set up SQL Express 2005 on the Report server and have done the above, but I'm sure there must be something else I must do above and beyond just creating an empty table in SQL Express that the SPA data is pointng to. No data as of now is being sent to SQL Express. I of course did not create any tables (just a new db) as I was hoping that the first batch of data sent to SQL would create the db strucutre, but that did not happen. Does anyone know what I must do to get that SPA data into SQL? Tag: enterprise 2003 to 64bit enterprise Tag: 117943

    - URGENT: How to move 2003 Server to new machine? I am an employee of a small company that has an HP Proliant ml350 Windows 2003 Standard server that is about 4 years old and has drives about to fail. I have been tasked with moving the server to new hardware, but I am new to server management in general. (They understand this, but are still confident in my ability to get this done without bringing the company to a grinding halt.) As I am not exactly an experienced server admin at this point, I thought it would be wise to ask you guys what would be the easiest and (most importantly) safest way to move my existing Windows 2003 server to completely different hardware without having to rebuild the entire system from scratch? Is there any software that can help with this move (say from Acronis or Microsoft)? Thanks so much for your help! james Tag: enterprise 2003 to 64bit enterprise Tag: 117932

    - Macintosh file stored on Windows Server 2003 Hi, I have been using Windows Server for storing Macintosh's files for years. Some day the Server 2000 failed, I installed Windows server 2000 on the another machine. and then restored the files. But I found that the InDesign with the linked graphic eps files has been broken, I have to re-link again, pretty annoying. Even I installed the Windows server 2003 with the same ip address, the same Server Name, the same shared paths as previous server, and then isolate that Server machine from the domain network by another network swith, and then restored the files. When I open the InDesign files, it prompt me to re-link the attached eps graphic files, but they should be linked automatically beforehand. Shall it have some hidden naming issue from the new server, so the Macintosh cannot recognize the real path? Regards. Tag: enterprise 2003 to 64bit enterprise Tag: 117928

    - How can I remove a started setup/installation of Windows Server 2003 Hello, Because on my server with Windows Server 2003 I had an error message "ntldr not found" I started it with the setup-CD. Actually I wanted to try to repair it. However, after initiating the setup it took quite long so in between I went to my work place. When I came back it was way down the installation procedure in the GUI part already but finally it couldn't find some files and stopped. Unfortunately now it always runs into the setup which does not work, I have no choice to boot in the old windows Server 2003 operating system. I tried F8 and chose last known good and again it runs into the erroneous setup. First I thought may be it has created a temporary setup partition and just rerouted the boot.ini into this setup. I checked the boot.ini with knoppix but it had only one line in it which the server uses for booting. Is there any way to remove the started setup and have the machine boot in the old windows server 2003 operating system? The ntldr message was only because s.o. had put a non-bootable floppy in the machine which I didn't notice =96 a lapsus which feels like a bad joke=85 Thank you Andreas Tag: enterprise 2003 to 64bit enterprise Tag: 117927

    - Server 2008: Print driver installation woes Hello all, I'm running into an unusual problem with my first Server 2008 installation: I can't change printer drivers unless I'm the local admin. When in Control Panel -> Printers, right-clicking on a printer + Properties yields the usual Printers dialog box. The driver is selected in the Advanced tab, but it's grayed out unless I'm the local Admin. * When logged in as MACHINE\Administrator, it works * When logged in as DOMAIN\appadmin, it's grayed out. I've confirmed that DOMAIN\appadmin is in the local Administrator's group, and this appadmin account has no trouble doing anything else Admin-y on the system: I can install software, create printer ports, etc. I just can't change the driver. Even going into the Registry to HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print and edit stuff manually - this account has the rights for it. I've searched high and low for information about this, to no avail. Is there some setting that I'm missing? Server 2003 definitely doesn't work this way.

    - Permissions on large file server Hi all, I have a question about permissions on a large file server we have at the office. We set up the server with a large drive (d:), and have the default permissions on the root of the volume. We created directories in the volume, and defined explicit permissions, blocking inheritance, and removed all the default permissions barring the domain administrator, the groups that need access to the relevant folder, and the local administrator. We then shared the relevant directories out using share permissions as the relevant groups that need access. In the directories holding user profiles and the folders for the My Documents redirection, we created the relevant folders and added the relevant admin accounts to the list. We then added the domain users group to be able to view directories under this folder, but defined that this should only apply to the folder and nothing underneath it. This works well - when we create a user, we create the folder, and give the relevant user full control of the folder. The domain users group does not appear in this folder, and the parent permissions are inherited. We are now wanting to take this a step further, by looking at how specific users can gain access to the relevant folders for administrative purposes, such as to change permissions on the relevant folders (all folders on the server), without having to log in as the domain administrator. We are quite happy if they could log in under another domain account which has the relevant rights to do this, we just need them to log in under an account which will be audited, unlike the domain admin account, where anyone who knows the relevant passwords can gain access therein. Also, if there is a more secure way of doing the permissions for the relevant profile/redirection directories, I would be interested to know. We have seen for example that Vista (if left to create the relevant directories) seems to set explicit permissions to the user, barring the administrator or anyone else from accessing the files underneath (unless the admin takes ownership of the folder). We are using Windows Server 2003 R2 (SP2). Our domain is Windows Server 2008 native, so if there would be any advantage in us upgrading the file server to that, we would be interested to know. Looking forward to anyone's thoughts in this matter, Thanks, Andrew. Tag: enterprise 2003 to 64bit enterprise Tag: 117901

    - Windows Universal Storage Server 2003 quits working I am having a problem with Windows Storage server . Every three weeks (to the day) stops communicating with the domain controllers. At first it seems like a network issue, but no other machines are affected (either servers or workstations). The symptoms are as follows: 1. Cannot remote desktop into the machine, says domain controller cannot be reached for authentication (UserEnv error ID 1053 occurs in Application log) 2. DFS Replication stops (of course it cannot find either DC, one of which it replicates to Event ID 5002) 3. Local workstations can access files, remote workstations that need to authenticate to acces files cannot 4. Not able to connect to internet through IE. IP configuration is correct on NIC card. 5. Recieve LSASRV error in system log, Event ID 40960 and NETLOGON error, Event ID 5719. There are no scheduled (anything) that corrosponds with the timing of this, and all processes, CPU, and memory seem normal. There are no additional error messages as to why this happens and all hardware seems to be working properly. A restart will fix this for the three week period. The only software installed is Veritas backup Exec Agent (which works normally), Veritas Continious Protection Server Agent (which quits working), and Trend Micro Client (set to scan in off hours, no real time scans) There is no known malware or viruses present on the system. The Server is a Dell NX1950 with a MD3000 Raid Enclosure. All Firmware, Bios, and MS patches are updated. If anyone has a clue as to what may be causing this, or if you need more information, let me know. We have been having this problem since October, and the Tech support at Dell does not seem to be able to figure it out either. -- To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk. Thomas A.

    - question about recovering from tombstone Hi, I have to W2K3 domain controllers which haven't been used for a while. When I tried using them today, I got some domain not found errors on the clients. When I looked at the event logs on DC1, I saw some 2042 and 1388 errors. I tried to force replication between both DC1 and DC2 manually and it failed. Following http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc780362.aspx, I went to DC1 and used repadmin /removelingeringobjects to clobber all the directory partitions which were hosed. I then went to the other DC and it was giving me target not found errors when using /removelingeringobjects. Getting this error is a mystery as I=92m using repadmin /showrepl to get the target id in the first place and then paste it into the command =96 I would think there=92s zero chance of fat fingering it then! Afterwards, I rebooted both DCs and I was able to force replication manually from one of the DCs and not the other. Apparently, I've got some lingering objects on that second domain controller even though I'm getting target not found errors. Short of doing a demote and re-promote, is there anyway I can get both domain controllers out of the tombstone state? Suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    - DCPROMO This morning to promo'd out what I believed to be a NT BDC promoted to PDC, then upgraded to Win2000. The demotion I guess went ok, users can log in, no calls etc . . But when I look at our AD-DNS, the old DC is still listed as a name server. When I look at ADSites and Services, he's still listed in my site, but there is no NTDS listed. If I look at Computer Mangement\Sessions there are a handful of users connected, but no open files. And what's the deal in Sites and Services when links aren't automatically created? I forget. But I have a handful of links that were manually created... So - should I wait for my four sites to replicate for that old DC to drop out of DNS, and sites and services or do I have a problem??

    - server not accessible Hi, I have a webserver (windows 2003 standard) within a virtual system. The server wasn't reachable during a critical amout of time and I need to checkout if the reason came from my virtual instance or not. Beside the fact, that the event logs don't show any errors, there is one thing which is strange for me: The security event log usually shows daily events 552 (user: system, source: security), bot NOT during the two days, when the server was not accessible. In fact there is no entry in eventlog/security at all during the time, when I couldn't access my server. The server IS accessible now, because of a reboot by the hoster. If you wouldn't see any errors in the log files, what would you think about a virual webserver, which was not accessible? Shouldn't it rather be the host-system or a different source "outside" the virtual instance? (of course I didn't switch the settings of the firewall) Thanks a lot for your ideas.

I am getting this error: Event Type: Error Event Source: AutoEnrollment Event Category: None Event ID: 13 Date: 8/11/2008 Time: 1:47:11 AM User: N/A Computer: DC01 Description: Automatic certificate enrollment for local system failed to enroll for one Domain Controller certificate (0x80070005). Access is denied. My CA is on a domain controller from win2000 to windows 2003 R2 SP2. I have read that I need to add the Domain Controllers group to the CERTSVC_DCOM_ACCESS group and reboot. Has anyone had any experience with this or can confirm this is what I need to do? Is it safe for me to add the domain controllers to this group? thanks in advance....

    - do I need win2k server In a home setting with 5 computers running winxp would there be any need to run a server environment ? Can user rights, priviledges, and dhcp be accomplished with security settings within winxp and a router? Would I be sacrificing anything doing this within a workgroup or would it be better to setup a domain in a server setting? Tag: enterprise 2003 to 64bit enterprise Tag: 117856

    - Event ID 51 - Error on \Device\Harddisk1 The full message is "An error was detected on device \Device\Harddisk1 during a paging operation." MS HELP says "If these events are logged regularly on a primary system drive, replace the device." This has happened 8 times in 2 weeks. Where do I find out which disk "Harddisk1" is. I only have 1 disk on the server so I guess it is it. Additional info - I think it has started to happen when I started a ASR backup using NTBACKUP to a USB HD. -- Regards Tom Tag: enterprise 2003 to 64bit enterprise Tag: 117855

    - Terminal Services vs. Terminal Access I am a little confused by server terminalogy. With Terminal Sservices, you have to have TS CAL's and it provides the ability to run applications on the server. That's good and positive and I understand the reasoning and advantages. The other case is RemoteApps. RAs let you run applications and they appear to be running on the clients workstation. This also requires CALs. The distinction between TS and RA's is less clear. They seem the same. OK but what if the only requirement is access to files on the server. Execution is on the clients workstation, with his own application that accesses files on the server. In the intranet environment that is simply domain access, but what do you use to accomplish this from a client on the internet. That is not a TS environment and should only require a User's CAL. In other words how do you log on to the domain from the internet simply to have access to files? Hope my description is clear. Lee Tag: enterprise 2003 to 64bit enterprise Tag: 117849

    - Explorer.exe keeps restarting I am running a Windows 2003 server standard edition. Each time i boot when explorer loads it causes a fault and is restarted, this is in a loop, have started in safe mode and ran virus, spyware, trojan software and nothing found, have copied in explorer.exe from cd still the same, have ran chkdsk /F option have also ran the scf /scannow option, still the same. All is ok in safe mode as no drivers etc are loaded, was not present when the error first occurred but was drafted in a few days later, have been told that nothing was done to cause the error, they first noticed something wrong when they could no longer log into the server........I believed them.....anyway any insight or assistance would be greatly appreciated as I dont want to have to reinstall everything...... Thanks in advance Kieron........ Tag: enterprise 2003 to 64bit enterprise Tag: 117842

    - WMI errors Getting quite a few WMI errors . I did not check to see if these errors were present before the upgrade, but I did look after upgrading the server to 4GB of RAM. The /PAE switch is in the boot.ini, but seems to make no difference whether or not that switch is present. Some samples of errors are... Event filter with query "select * from MSMCAEvent_PCIBusError where (type = 2147811410) and (LogToEventlog <> 0)" could not be (re)activated in namespace "//./root/WMI" because of error 0x80041010. Events may not be delivered through this filter until the problem is corrected. Event filter with query "select * from MSMCAEvent_MemoryError where (type = 3221553227) and (LogToEventlog <> 0)" could not be (re)activated in namespace "//./root/WMI" because of error 0x80041010. Events may not be delivered through this filter until the problem is corrected. Event filter with query "select * from MSMCAEvent_SystemEventError where (type = 3221553231) and (LogToEventlog <> 0)" could not be (re)activated in namespace "//./root/WMI" because of error 0x80041010. Events may not be delivered through this filter until the problem is corrected. Event filter with query "select * from MSMCAEvent_CPUError where (type = 3221553266) and (LogToEventlog <> 0)" could not be (re)activated in namespace "//./root/WMI" because of error 0x80041010.

Event filter with query "select * from MSMCAEvent_MemoryPageRemoved" could not be (re)activated in namespace "//./root/WMI" because of error 0x80041010. Events may not be delivered through this filter until the problem is corrected. Anything I seem to see seems to be related to SQL/etc. but this box does not have SQL, Exchange, or anything. This is just a standard file server. Windows 2003 with SP2 and all other updates. I don't have easy physical access to this box, so simply removing some RAM isn't all that quick of a try. But.... if that's what it comes down to.... Tag: enterprise 2003 to 64bit enterprise Tag: 117839

    - Client machines slow under hyper v I have two servers I am running as hyper v clients on a new W2008 server. They are running very slowly. It takes minutes for them to perform the simplest action such as opening IE. The virtual disks are stored on a RAID5 array. I used to have them running as clients on a Athlon3200 W2003 server with 2GB RAM running VMWare server and they were much faster. The disk then was just RAID0. Can anyone suggest how I can speed them up. Without adding extra hardware as I shouldn't have thought it was necessary.

    - how to stop shadow copy recursive mount points following Hi, using server 2008 (32/64 version) i noticed mount points are recursive followed especially in this case (see steps 1-2), has anyone knows how it can be stopped? step 1 ) mounting shadow copy of volume X on volume X step 2) create additional shadow copy of the same volume X and mount it again on volume x(different location) as result the second mounted shadow copy(step 2) contains the first mount point of the previous shadow(step 1) 1. in server 2003 the behavior was different, mounted shadows where not followed 2. now the first mount point as two paths, the original and inside the second mounted shadow copy 3. after few steps as above, my machine crash my questions? 1. can i programmatic (or in other means) can change the behavior to what it was on 2003 2. is that possible to exclude the directory that include the mounted shadow copies (all reside in the same folder in my application) as requester (IVssBackupComponents) [using the registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet \Control \BackupRestore\FilesNotToBackup or \snapshot... helps but only some times, i suppose it's since the exclude describe as "best effort" in msdn documentation] thx, Eyal.

    - 2003 DC hangs at applying computer settings I have a strange problem. 1 of 2 DCs (not the PDCe or FSMO) rebooted/crashed yesterday and it looked like a power failure as the reason came up unknown and there were no errors/warnings in event log. I also checked the HP logs as this is a Proliant server ML350. I removed the network connection and it booted up OK- notwithstanding the expected errors. I was able to start the sevrices manually and get the DC online. Now I am trying to find the problem. I am leading towards a GP cause. The only possible issue was that it had been pointing to itself as the time source and not the PDCe. I corrected that but didnt reboot yet as I am letting it run overnight. Anything else possible with above scenario- oh, I know about the old APC issue and we fixed that years ago. Much regards Cranky Tag: enterprise 2003 to 64bit enterprise Tag: 117832

    - kerberos error I am a bit confused by the kerberos help message. there is no web services on this server but I get Event Type: Error Event Source: Kerberos Event Category: None Event ID: 4 Date: 2008-08-07 Time: 07:53:35 User: N/A Computer: mysvr01 Description: The kerberos client received a KRB_AP_ERR_MODIFIED error from the server host/mysvr01.mydomain.local. The target name used was LDAP/fbce4a49-6f53-42dc-b997-322b82a349e0._msdcs.mydomain.local. This indicates that the password used to encrypt the kerberos service ticket is different than that on the target server. Commonly, this is due to identically named machine accounts in the target realm (mydomain.LOCAL), and the client realm. Please contact your system administrator. For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp. which machine account do I need to fix and what is the client realm?

In general even if you have 32bit enterprise you still cannot upgrade to the
64bit version of the OS, correct?

Hello psanborn,

You can not upgrade 32bit to 64bit OS, that's correct. It needs a install
from scratch.

Best regards
