    Temporarily Disabling TS Logins

    Hey, anyone know of a quick way to temporarily disable new logins to a Win2k3 TS in app mode? I know there's a way to do this in Citrix (or at least there was). Basically I want to do remote server maintenance through TS (applying app patches, etc) and don't want to disconnect myself, but don't...

    Upgrade experience: BES 2.1 -> 3.6

    Hey, just to revive this topic real quick, did you have to get your users to re-synch after the upgrade? I've got a lot of users that don't come into the office often. I know attachment services probably won't work till they synch, but i don't want to cut them off for the upgrade. We're still...

    Email Disclaimer - Exchange 2000

    GFI MailEssentials is the only way I've seen to reliably make this work. The 30-day trial still works for one disclaimer after the 30 days is up, so you can use it for free (none of the other included tools work, but if you just need disclaimers, this will do the trick) Their link is...

    OWA suddenly unavailable for one user only - 500 Internal server error

    Yay, this helped me. The problem was 'logon to' was only set to the mailservers for my user. Changed it to 'all computers' and it's fine. This worked when we had Exchange 5.5 OWA, so maybe there's some kinda authentication pass-thru that requires access to a DC or GCS? anyway, good find desperadoh!

    RDP client connecting to 2k3 TS error, license protocol

    The IPC share is there, and i can view the terminal server licenses.. turns out it's a permissions issue: Actually, I fixed the problem by accident. The HKLM/software/microsoft/MSLicensing key had the wrong permissions, so when a normal user was logging into terminal services for the first...

    RDP client connecting to 2k3 TS error, license protocol

    Whoops, the bad checksum is a red herring, appears to happen when you capture traffic directly from a server participating in the conversation. I captured the traffic from another host and the checksums come out fine. Still working :-/

    RDP client connecting to 2k3 TS error, license protocol

    Here's some more information: I did a packet capture on the terminal server, and I can see the one packet that seems to be transmitting the license information from the TS to the client. The checksum on the packet is wrong, according to network monitor. TCP: Checksum = ERROR: CheckSum is...

    RDP client connecting to 2k3 TS error, license protocol

    Oops, the exact error is: "Remote session was disconnected because there were network problems during the licensing protocol. Please try connecting to the remote computer again." This comes up on only 2 of my Win2kSP4 clients with the new RDP client installed. I tried re-installing the RDP...

    RDP client connecting to 2k3 TS error, license protocol

    Hi, I'm setting up a 2k3 TS in application mode and trying to get a few Windows XP and 2000 clients to connect. I've installed the new RDP 5.1 client on my 2000 clients, and one or two give me a problem when I try to connect. The client sits at Connecting, then times out with the error "network...

    File Download Dialogue Box Opening in TS Session

    Ah, perfect. I kinda suspected trused internet sites, but I assumed it would allow computers on the local subnet by default. And I didn't realize you could put 'file://' in there.. Thanks for the tip Alex!

    Watchguard Opinions

    I agree about their support, talking to their (Indian) techs was no help. Constantly needing to reboot the entire Firebox just to change VPN settings is irritating and not having a decent routing engine is unfortunate (forget about load balancing, dynamic routes or anything that an actual...

    Recover Password and access Firebox II

    You'll still need a software key for the firebox management, contact the person who sold it to you and they should be able to supply it. To reset the password on the watchguard, connect a crossover cable to the trusted and external interfaces (i think, it might be optional and trusted) and...

    Probably corrupted the active directory database. Reboot into Active Directory Recovery Mode after pressing (F8?) during boot. Check this MS article: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=258062 Check the documentation of ESENTUTL which can check the consistancy and fix the active...

    File Download Dialogue Box Opening in TS Session

    Yes, even the administrator can't do it. It seems like it's a problem with IE Enhanced Security mode, but I added the site the the intranet zone, and made sure UNC paths were allowed as well. It's odd, but it's not complaining about signed code or anything, just to Open or Download. Thanks...

    How to downgrade from W2003 to Windows 2000 Server?

    I'd suggest wiping and reinstalling windows. At the very least, you can test with a dual boot temporarily, but for best results, make backups and wipe the drive. Make sure you make a backup of the fileshares, rather than just copy/paste them into a folder on another server. Backing them up...

    Show me the time!

    To answer your question about mandatory profiles (for the sake of completeness): A user's settings are contained (mostly) in a ntuser.dat file in their profile directory (c:\documents and settings\%username% in XP and 2k usually). You can copy that directory to a shared folder and change the...

    File Download Dialogue Box Opening in TS Session

    Hi, I've got a 2003 server in Application Mode running an application over a mapped network drive. The application works fine, and I installed it correctly (in single user mode, through Add/remove programs). The application runs fine if I have it start automatically for the user, but if they...

    Show me the time!

    It's a profile setting. Right-click the taskbar, click properties, then tick 'show clock'. You can have everyone do this them selves, create a mandatory profile with this setting, or copy this profile to the 'default user' profile and it'll show up for new users who haven't logged in before.

    windows 2003 server printing notification

    Also, make sure the Messanger service is running on any workstations that you want recieving the notifications. Sometimes this is disabled because it gets annoying (antivirus and UPS applications come to mind).

    Hello, We have a Watchguard Firebox III at our main site, which hosts a financial application behind a terminal server. A very important remote site is being brought up, and will have 2 DSL connections from different ISPs. They are going to buy a Cisco router with VPN accelerator card as the...
