Is there anyway to import the current DNS records from a sun system into a 2003 server with DNS. The sun is primary right now, but it is dying and needs to be rebooted a lot...so we want to move the records to server 2003. Is there a way? We can make them a .csv file or text file. Thanks for...

I am going to add about 10,000 users (students) to our domain controller via the adduser.exe command. Is there any way to add the user AND create a folder for them on the server automatically? Has anyone had a need to add a huge amount of users and individual folders before? I apprieciate...

Never mind. I uninstalled the windows advanced security and it started working....why isn't their own security settings compatible with their darn updates...

I have installed 2003 server on a compaq DL360 recently. It won't do the windows updates. I get to the page and it says that there is an error with my time or date. There is no error. I even have the server syncing with windows time server. I re-installed the OS and it still does the same...

I set up some scheduled tasks to do backups of some files on my server. Now everytime I click on one of them, I get the error: General page initialization failed The specific error is: 0X8007000d:The Data is invalid. It is using the administrator account to try and logon, so I don;t think that...

If I am forced to use the /forceremoval when doing a dcpromo, is there anyway that I can later promote the server to a DC again to a new domain? If so, what problems might I run into? Thanks! Stacy

In the event viewer? I get tons of different errors SAM Event 16650 The account-identifier allocator failed to initialize properly. The record data contains the NT error code that caused the failure. Windows 2000 will retry the initialization until it succeeds; until that time, account...

IS that where you go into sites and services, click on ntds and click on replicate now? If so, yeay, i tried that. I get a lot of target account name incorrect issues with that.

Ok..I'm have multiple problems with my DCs. It seems that none of them are replicating and they are all having problems finding a Global catalog. There is a Global catalog, but only 1 of 2 servers see it. I recently unpromoted my FSMO..eveything replicated off to another DC fine...but none of...

Message when trying to netdom resetpwd= The machine account password for the local machine could not be reset. No mapping between acoount names and security IDs was done. I already stopped the kkdc service in order to make this change. Any idea why I can't reset the password? Thanks! Stacy

OK..The last ADMIN set up a test domain for win 2000 server. I have demoted all of the DCs on it and I'm down to the last one. I want to get rid of the domain all together. When I go to DCpromo the last DC in the domain, I check the "last DC in the domain", but it wants to replicate...

okay. Let me give the REPLMON.EXE, REPADMIN.EXE a try. I do think that the "allow dynamic updates" cleared up a few problems. Thanks again for all the help. Stacy

Gia, Just so you know, I lost connection to Yahoo...I think the Network guys are messing with the switches or something..sorry 'bout this

wait...I'm mistaken. There are 2 seperate networks. We have VLANs set up to keep the servers seperate. The STUDENT Domain and the ADMIN domain are not within the same forest at all. STUDENT is on it's own. It cannot see ADMIN and Vice versa. The DNS is on the ADMIN network The reason we...

1 forest called SISD.net (2 domains within the forrest.) 1 Student.sisd.net 1 Admin.sisd.net
