    - 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: multiple servers on one box? 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.

    - Windows Server 2008 GUI Hi, I am now struggling with a number of the great improvements Microsoft did to Server 2008, in particular: - RegEdit don't have "closed" and "open" folders in the left treevew pane anymore. All folders regardless of state are just pale yellowish supposedly beautiful pieces of useless work. If the right pane (values) is selected, one can't tell which folder the values belong to. Is there any way to fix it and may get the old good 2003 icons? - WinMail panels now use 1 pixel wide splitters. To resize a panel, I now have to position the mouse exactly on that 1 pixel line, which is it least 5 times harder than in Server 2003. Have anyone tried to do it via RDP on a Windows Mobile Device? Is there any way to change the thickness of the splitters? Thanks, John Tag: multiple servers on one box? Tag: 109771

    - Printing from a PC outside domain I have a situation where we have 3 production stations that all have their own domains and on each there is a Printer attached to one of the PC's and shared. I have 1 mobile station that has a single PC on it that is used by each of the 3 prodution stations as needed. It is a stand alone workstation not joined to any of the 3 domains but... They occasionally need to print from the mobile station which has no printer of it's own. Is it possible to print from a computer that is not part of a domain to a printer that is part of a domain? If it helps - all 3 of the production stations are clones of each other including IP schemes. The mobile station has a static IP that is within the IP schema for the production stations so TCP/IP communication already works fine. Tag: multiple servers on one box? Tag: 109740

    - GPO Software Deployment - DNS Alias We have recently replaced our main file server, migrating all files\software. Currently have 3 GPO's in place that were reponsible for deploying Office, Visio STD and Visio Pro. We should have used DFS, but that is water under the bridge right now. I had thought that a DNS Alias would allow the GPO's to contact the new file server, even though the server name was different...however this does not appear to be the case. I have put the entry in for disabling strict naming, and verified that the server is at least listening for the Alias as well. However the GPO's will not install. Keeps advising that the source location is not available. But when I go to the path via UNC, I can access. Is there anything I can do to resolve?? I don't want to re-create the GPO's and have a couple hundred clients re-install. Server in Question is running 2003 R2 SP2 Enterprise, 64bit edition. Thanks, Tag: multiple servers on one box?

    - Server Console login I have a Server 2003 server that is running Exchange 2003. Several times over the past few months it has locked the console login, so I can't get response when using CTRL+ALT+DEL. I can RDP in and all is running fine, but when I try CTRL+ALT+DEL at the console, it won't respond. When I use mstsc /console, it allows me to enter the login information, but then goes to the same blank screen as at the console itself. Since this is on a KVM, I setup USB mouse and keyboard, but CTRL+ALT+DEL still didn't work. The mouse moves around the screen fine. It is running Symantec for Exchange, Symantec (with the proper exceptions), and the Blackberry Enterprise software. If I reboot, it is fine. I've tried stopping and restarting Symantec and other services, but that doesn't seem to help. I checked the memory usage, and it looks like there is plenty free (2GB total/410MB available, 141112 Kernal/105316 paged/35796 nonpaged). The CPU usage is only 2%, and the network utilization is barely moving. I also noticed the Windows Firewall/ICS services was running, although the Firewall in Control Panel was off. I have turned this off, but it didn't help either. It seems like this person is having the same issue: http://www.computing.net/windows2003/wwwboard/forum/7285.html PLEASE HELP.

    - Windows 2003 R2 x64 intermittently hangs New Windows 2003 R2 x64 server, Quad core proc, 12gigs ram, dual HBA fiber attached SAN storage. 3 SAN data volumes (2 - data volumes and 1 for user folders, mapped to look like one share).

Server is still responding, and RDP to it, and open both data drives, but cannot open the use folder volume. No errors are generated. Very little to no disk activity in perf mon. There are no errors on the server, and no errors in the SAN storage system (which is also brand new).

    - Server 2008 x64 And Shadow Copy Backups/DosDev Hi All We're using Server 2008 x64 Standard for running Exchange 2007 and SQL Server 2005 plus a few small COM application objects and a small amount of file serving. When it comes to backup time I have to say I was disappointed with the Server 2008 option of full drive only. Its useful to be able to do that, certainly, but its not the only kind of backup thats useful. So, I decided to go the Robocopy route - an excellent tool for anyone unfamiliar with it. All went fine until I got to the point of wanting to get the Exchange edb files backed up. Some quick reading later and the combination of VShadow and DosDev (create a shadow copy, then mount it as a drive letter) seemed perfect. I got the x64 version of VShadow.exe from the VSS SDK and DosDev from one of the reporting tools. Version number: 5.2.3790.1830 (10/05/2007). The VShadow -Script=vss.cmd D: works fine and as various sites suggest. >DosDev L: %SHADOW_DEVICE_1% Returns: Current definition: L: = \??\GLOBALROOT\Device\HarddiskVolumeShadowCopy193 If I try to change to the drive I get: >L: The device is not ready. Or if I've left it a while (in case it was a timing issue) eventually it comes out with: File not found. Anyone have any thoughts, ideas or alternatives? Thanks! Tag: multiple servers on one box?

    - Move 2003 file server to new domain Hi We are in the process of a NT4 to 2003 migration. We are running a NT4 DC on domain X and a 2003 DC on domain Y in mixed mode. All out file servers are already on 2003. All users and groups have been migrated with ADMT from domains X to Y and all workstations have joined the new domain Y. Because of all the SID history being migrated with ADMT, all users on the new domain Y can still access the files and shares on the file servers on old domain X. Now we want to move these 2003 file servers to the new domain Y. How can we do this in way so all file and share permissions will automatically be changed as well? At the moment all shares and files on the servers only list the old domain X users and groups. After moving the server to the new domain Y, we want the new users and groups on domain Y to appear in all the file and share permissions. Thanks Tag: multiple servers on one box? Tag: 109718

I have an active directory server, which is mydomain.com, wherein also my DNS and DHCP is located. 2. My subnet is 255.255.255.0 This is my idea. 1. Have these servers: (Need suggestions on these) a. AD Server with DNS Server - is this a good practice? b. DHCP Server with ISA Server - is this a good practice? Other concern: I want my network to have access limitations. Here is a scenario. 1. In our network, only managers can use their laptop to access our network and internet. It can be wired or wireless. Unauthorized laptop should or must not access our network. But from the way the network was setup, they can access it through wire. I can filter the wireless using MAC Address filter from the routers. But if they connect through wire and know how to config TCP/IP they can easily access our network. Can this be avoided through ISA? Is there a way to filter MAC Address through Active Directory? Hope you can help me on this. Thanks in advance. Allan Tag: multiple servers on one box? Tag: 109704

    - External and internal domains and DNS Server Hi, I have the company.com Internet domain which serves the company's public Internet website at www.company.com. The authoritative name server for this domain is somewhere in the Internet. Now I installed a new domain controller on Windows Server 2008 for a new internal domain which I called company.com as well. I guess it wasn't a wise decision because if I type www.company.com on a machine that belongs to the internal domain, the address can't be resolved. It's understandable because the domain controller has the DNS Server installed which knows nothing about the external company.com domain. Is it possible to configure the internal DNS server to properly handle both the internal and external domain names? For example, I want all local DNS queries which can't be resolved locally (like www.company.com) to be forwarded to the external DNS server. Thanks, John Tag: multiple servers on one box? Tag: 109691

    - Disabled Domain Controller I have a DC that I thought was dead for good, so I removed it through asdiedit. Later I find out that because of other network issues that I have, I needed to have that server back up, so was able to resurect it. It re-registered itself in DNS and is serving login requests. But, it shows in Active Directory as disabled as well as there are no NTDS settings. Can this be fixed? If I log into that particular DC, it's Sites and Settings have the the NTDS settings, as it has never received replication from the other servers that it is gone. So, two questions, can I enable the DC machine account somehow? and Is there somehow of repairing the NTDS settings? Thanks. Tag: multiple servers on one box? Tag: 109669

    - How do users still have 'unique settings' after Application Data c Hi, I am just wondering. I noticed App Data was getting too large for indivdual profiles and so decided to keep all profiles to access a single App Data so it could be administered easy and so I could 'add' settings for applications easily. But something wierd is going on. Programs such as Microsoft Outlook or Microsoft Word are retaining user's custom settings. This is perfect, as I wanted users to have this freedom. I just do not understand. For Example: In Outlook, all profiles have been set to acquire and save e-mail to U:\Email\folders.pst. However, the account settings have not. I always imagined this was saved in App Data or Local Settings, however, a) if it was in App Data it would conflict with other people's account details b) if it was local settings it would not work on other pcs. How come this is still working? where are things like account details being saved? registry? ntuser.dat? Sorry I am confused TIA Sam Tag: multiple servers on one box? Tag: 109642

    - Access denied on Iomega Network drive in Windows 2003 R2 We have an Iomega 250Gbyte network hard drive that was used to back up files from a Windows 2000 server that has failed. This drive was available to all users on our network. We have installed a new server running Windows 2003 Standard Edition 32 bit with no access controls specifically invoked. The Iomega drive can be found and mapped in Windows Explorer but none of the folders or files on it can be seen or accessed. Any attempt to create a new folder, for instance, gives 'Access is Denied'. We have added now a second (new) Iomega 250 Gbyte drive that gives the same result. These drives are also now no longer accessible by other users on the network, whichever version of Windows they are using. We have XP professional, 2000 and 98SE users. The drives themselves do not have any way of setting access permissions so there must be something in Windows 2003 server that is causing this. What is it and how do we overcome it? -- Bruce Wallace Tag: multiple servers on one box? Tag: 109640

Thanks for responding, Meinolf.

The server is pretty beefy:
Quad Core Xeon E5405 Proc 2x6MB Cache, 2.0 GHz, 1333MHz FSB
2GB RAM

This server would be serving all in-house people not totalling more than 30
connections at one time (an office of about 30 people at work during the
day). The web server wouldn't be serving anyone outside of our office.

It would be on the internal LAN (192.168.1.x) although it could be made (as
soon as I learn how) to serve some employees that are working from home (not
more than ten at a time) so it may end up with either a (second IP) public
IP or being proxied via NAT port forwarding and, eventually ISA Server.
