Our win98 clients are unable to connect to our unix server via samba. The same users are able to connect from a NT workstation. We are able to ping the server by name or address w/o problems. Cannot connect via \\ipaddress\sharename either. I have seen a lot of posts on google groups but no...

XP computer hidden from network places. I'm not sure how this is done. My server service is running. My policy for computer hidden is set to "no". Is there another service I should have running to be seen on the network? Also in Server Manager, the client is grayed out but it can be opened...

The fix is to force the dns change by typing: ipconfig /registerdns from each client.

yes. new ip same old dns and wins ip. We block the ip and then do a ipconfig /release and then do a ipconfig /renew. we get a new ip but like I stated, the dns and wins ip remain the same. nothing is static.

We're in a NT4 domain, have dhcp service running on a win2k server. We updated the wins and dns ip addresses in our dhcp configuration. Our clients are setup to retrieve wins, dhcp and dns info from the dhcp server. When the clients renew, they get a new ip address but the other addresses are...

I'll be upgrading to Win2k server but am not sure which way to configure. I currently have a small NT domain with one pdc and 5 nt workstations. Will I have any problems if I set up the dc in native mode? I haven't seen any problems in my test domain so far running native. Suggestions?

Has anyone tried the Move Server Wizard for Exchange? We're in the process of trying to move an Exchange server from one domain/organization/site to another domain/oranization/site. We're using a support article from Microsoft, but the example shows joining two sites into one. Any help would...

We have 2 Exchange servers(1 organization, 2 sites) in our NT4 domain. We need to move one of the Exchange servers to a new domain and we'd like to be able to keep the Exchange server intact. There are 50 NT accounts and mailboxes from the current domain that need to be migrated to the new...

My question is in regard to client access licenses. I have activated the server thru the internet. Do I need to install/purchase client access licenses? If I look in the Terminal services licensing program, I see Builtin Existing Windows 2000 licenses on one server, but see an entry for...

I'm in a somewhat similar situation. In our NT4.0 domain, we have 2 5.5 Exchange servers in our organization at different sites. Because of our change in our network topology, we'd like to breakaway into 2 separate domains with 2 distinct 5.5 Exchange servers. The Exchange server in our...

I'm having a problem losing my VPN connection after logging off a terminal services session. I have a win2k server running VPN software. I can connect using MS Terminal services client. But when I log off the session, the VPN session is killed and all of our other users (TS users) are then...
