I am receiving the following error periodically when attempting to backup our PDC. "E8522 Failed to receive data from the client agent. (EC=10054)". This is one of 3 servers that get backed up each night. The other two servers are backed up with no problem. I've checked the agent on...

I am experiencing high cpu usage on my NT server. The process, other than the system idle process, that is eating up a lot of processor time, is the System process. Anyone know what uses the system process? We have a DOS application that runs across the network. This is the only application...

I too am experiencing high cpu usage. The process, other than the system idle process, that is eating up a lot of processor time is the System process. Anyone know what uses the system process? By the way, let me mention that we have a dos application that runs across the network. This is the...

We have 3 authentication servers running. I didn't think it mattered which server authenticated a client for it to show up in server manager. Server manager shows all machines on the domain, in NT anyway. I was trying to see what machines existed on the network. I'm really an NT person, so I...

The machines are set to logon to the domain when DHCP is set. I checked the workgroup as you suggested and found that it was different than the other machines. I changed it and it got rid of the original problem(which was that there were no domain servers available to authenticate my password -...

All clients are logging on to the domain. Also, server manager is set to show servers and workstations in the domain.

I have NT 4.0 servers with 98 machines as clients. How do I get the 98 machines to show up in Server Manager?

We are having problems with new Gateway machines just recently purchased. They are PIII, 933's with 3COM 3C920 NICs. We are unable to get them to see the network using DHCP. Only until we assign a static IP address does the PC logon to the network. Once it logs in, it maps the network drives...

Thanks for your suggestion ramani. The user didn't show as being logged on to the network. I guess I should also mention that I tried logging on as "administrator" and got the same result.

It couldn't validate the username.

We have an NT network with 98 client workstations. Occasionally, a workstation will not allow us to log on to it. We receive the message: "The network was unable to validate your username...". The last time it happened, the user logged on to the network earlier in the day. The...

I've seen that also. I'll go to open the CD-ROM drive and then close it and it will keep opening on its own. After several attempts to keep it closed, it finally closes. We use T-1 lines here. What affect does the type of lines you're using have?

Yes, I'm sure I have the right driver. I'm installing from the Gateway System Restoration CD. Do you think it's necessary to reinstall Windows to get it to work?

I have Windows 98SE installed. I reinstalled the video driver for an ATI RAGE 128 VR SD AGP 2X video card. After installing the driver and rebooting the system, I am unable to save the new settings for the display. Usually the system will allow you to see the changes and then prompt for a...
