Could it be you reached the 16gb max limit for the exchange database? Assumming your using standard edition. As the Information stores shuts itself down when the limit it reached.

thanks for the reply yokydoky and what you have said is true BUT 1. For the 2nd NIC the option for dchp is grayed out 2. the dns setting seem to copy themselfs from one nic to another i.e dns servers, host and domain name. any ideas?

The topology is as follows windows 98 clients connected to a win nt4 server. the nt4 server is connected to a adsl router. so yes the nt4 server is a router i.e routing internet request to the adsl router. We are using a weird 3rd party proxy software. Thats not the problem thou as i cannnot...

Thanks once again for the reply... The reason i ask about the dns on the NICs it appears with an message regarding it will give one of the nics a different host name as the host names are the same. Is this a normal NT4 behaviour? We've now got it working so the server and clients can access the...

thanks for the reply. at first For the 3com card i left the configuration for the bindings as default i.e left it alone. But i did notice that it had tcpip bound to it (not a problem) but under tcpip it had dchp server, i was thinking that this needs to be disabled as it needs to get a dchp...

Hi, i have been searching through the forums about multihomed NT4 server(s) and even though i have understood a little better i'm still stuck!! here's my problem: NT4 Server SP6a it has a intel NIC for internal use using 147.100.10.1 subnet 255.255.0.0. A 3 com NIC for external (adsl) use using...

Hi, Not too sure about thet skipping files bit i have found win 2000 server unreliable at backing up exchange. but there is a tool called xmerge i think it is apart of exchange( you'll have to look for it) what it does is backs up all mailboxes to a .pst file(a pst file for each mailbox)...

Hi, i've got a similar setup and the www publishing service does the same thing. not using ms proxy 2.0 is'nt really a fix. Has anyone got any ideas on this? Thanks in advance John.

Hi all, After searching the web for quite some time i never resolved how to use MSN messenger through a proxy/gateway until yesterday.... our system is set up so our windows 2000 server is a gateway using RRAS including the use of NAT. But for the life of me i cound'nt use messenger from my...

Thanks for the response, yes i have checked the regionl option and it is set for GMT for England (my area). This i believe has no affect of resetting the time to 4 min fast. thanks anyway at least someone replied!!

Hi, I have a network of 1 PDC, 5 BDC's and 150+ workstations running NT 4 server/workstation. I have set-up timeserver through the timesvr.ini file so the whole domain synchronizes accordantly. At the moment the PDC isn’t pointing to an external source, as we need to install another modem for...

Hi, I have an NT 4 server with backup exec 7.3. Up until recently it has been backing up ok. Now when you try and run backup exec and connect to server it freezes at initialising user interface and when you go into task manager the task is not responding. Also in exec view the job status is at...
