I just performed a SBS2000 to SBS2003 domain migration. Now, one of my Windows 2000 SP4 servers is having issues. The rest of our servers are fine. I cannot logon with the local administrator account. I get "cannot logon interactively". I am able to logon with the domain administrator...

That was it! Thank you!

I'm having issues with setting up VPN on a 2821 to allow users to connect with the Cisco VPN client. Initially the VPN clients cannot connect. If I telnet to the router and run "clear ip nat trans *", then the VPN clients can connect. Anywhere from 5 minutes to 30 minutes later, the VPN...

I am having issues with a site-to-site VPN between two PIX 501 firewalls. The diagram is like this: OfficeA-->PIX-1---INTERNET---PIX-2<--OfficeB I had the site up and running the other day...now it is only working one-way. This does not appear to be a client machine issue. Machines in...

I have a PIX 506 that is configured for VPN clients, that has been running fine for some time. Yesterday, I started getting reports that people were having issues connecting to the VPN due to "IP address conflict" errors. I'm finding that every VPN client that connects is given the first...

I am working on a Cisco 2821 router and I am having NAT issues. First, I could not telnet to the outside interface (w/ route-able ip) from the internet. I ran the command: clear ip nat trans * and then it worked. So, I added: ip nat inside source static tcp <inside int> 23 <outside int> 23...

I need to have all of my W2K & XPSP1a Pro workstations reboot every night at midnight. I've been trying to use an AT command and shutdown.exe in a scheduled task. The job is scheduled...but it doesn't actually reboot the machine. We use this method on many other machines and it works fine. I...

Okay, but how would I do that so that we'd both be updating the same file? What I want to avoid is having to dl the file, update it, and then have the upload the file again. Innevitably, we would both have the file downloaded, and then both upload it and someone's updates would get overwritten...

Myself and another person are working on a project. I wrote a small VB app that is basically a "to-do" list. It has assignments, due dates, etc. This is fine, except I don't know how to share it across the internet so that we can both update it. I want the info to be in a place where we can...

I have 3 pc's and Earthlink satellite. The satellite plugs into PC1 via USB. PC1 has ICS running. PC2 and PC3 have IE setup to use PC1 as the proxy. I can get to the internet on all three machines, but I'm finding that as soon as I try to go to a secure site (ie, one with a logon) on PC2...

I'm having issues deploying SMS SUS patches. The scan program ran without issue and all the patches needed were listed in web reports. The patches package is not running properly. There is a patchinstall.log in the \admin$\temp dir of the client. At the end of that log I've found: Trying to...

I'm looking for a 3-wire, solid copper core, 22 or smaller guage cable, that is &quot;soft,&quot; kind of like CAT5 patch cable. Something that isn't as rigid and doesn't have 'memory' like say thermostat wire. Something just like CAT5 patch cable, but only 3 wires. I appreciate your...

Can you suggest a site or store to look for such a scoring tool? I haven't been able to find anything that opens wide enough for a 5/8&quot; cable. I'm not using the right name or looking in the correct place. It does have a pull string in it, so I'll work with that a bit. Thanks!

I have some all-in-one cable with 2 CAT5e and 2 RG6 in it. It is about 5/8&quot; thick. Does anyone have any suggestions for tools or methods for stripping the heavy outer-wrapping off the four wires? The main issue in the basement at my wire cabinet, where I want a good length of the four...

I installed a Leviton SMC-420 wire cabinet. It is attached directly to the cement wall. The cabinet has pre-punched holes that nicely accept Leviton products. I have a few non-Leviton items that I'd like to put in the cabinet, but I'm interested in getting people's ideas on a good method to...
