In case the above doesn't work, I have had some success with this software: http://bytesolutions.com/Support/Knowledgebase/KB_Viewer/ArticleId/35/DevNodeClean-remove-phantom-storage-device-nodes.aspx Basically, it removes all the phantom drives that the server is never likely to see / use...

Hi, If you change the password expirey days to be longer then it'll not force an immediate change AFAIK so you should be OK to make both of those changes.

Hi All, Does anyone know if it is possible to make a server side change that tells all connecting RDP clients to disable bitmap caching when using the Terminal Services Client? I know you can do this on the clients themselves, but I have a few hundred to do and they're not in the domain so...

Thanks, I'll give the RU7 a try - upgrading iOS might be fun as there are large number of phones involved, but I guess that's what the interns are for :)

Hi, Do I read things correctly that if you try to telnet from the Internet to the external IP of your Edge server you don't get a connection?

We have the following situation I hope someone has seen before. Exchange 2007 server (SP3) with a shared mailbox. A number of users have this mailbox synced to their iPhones along with their mail mailbox. For some reason, the server creates draft1, draft2... draft7 folders in that mailbox...

Also worth checking c:\windows\system32\logfiles especially the W3SVC1 folder. That can have huge numbers of logs in it. If you're not interested in the old webserver log files, you can either delete all but the most recent or at least move them to a folder with more space.

Hi, From what I can see there appears to be an issue with the VPN connection from the MAC to the network, or possibly an underlying DNS issue so that the mac can't lookup the server properly so that'd be the place to look. However, I tend to avoid the VPN --> Email these days and just setup...

Hi, I have an SBS 2003 server, fully patched. I'm about to migrate it over to SBS 2011. In the logs, I have found a number of errors about autoenrollment of the DC certificate. That certificate appears to have recently expired and not been able to autorenew. The error in the log is: Error 13...

Hi, Here's the config. TS box in a hosted environment. 8GB RAM, WS 2K8. All SPs and patches applied. Clients logon via the TS gateway service. Service uses an internally generated certificate. All clients have had the ROOT cert manually added to trusted root certificates. On all but one...

Thanks! That makes sense now. I was wondering why it worked OK for some users and not others but it presumably they are using printers for which the server already has a driver.

Hi All, I have a setup as follows: Single DC (2008 x32) Separate TS (2008 x32) TS licensing is on the DC. This is all hosted on Hyper-V. The install is vanilla in terms of permissions and all TS users are setup in the remote desktop users group. For one user, the printers, remote disks etc...

Great - glad it got fixed!

It sounds very like an issue we had recently with a bit of malware. The fixing steps are posted here: http://www.ion-systems.net/TechTips/tabid/223/Default.aspx Basically, a bit of malware got into the hklm\software\microsoft\windows NT\drivers32 section of the registry. Removing / correcting...

Hi All, I have a Single 2003 Server, SP2. It is the only DC is a 1 office network. When I try (logged on as the single domain administrator account) to edit policies I get "Failed to open the group policy object. You may not have the appropriate rights". Additionally events 1058 and 1030...
