We currently have a server running Windows Server 2000 and SQL Server 2000. Our desired outcome is Windows Server 2008 and SQL Server 2005. Is there a logical progression to get there, or should I just do a clean install with everything and use a backup copy of the db to setup the new SQL? I...

I know, I know, you should only have one DHCP server running at a time. Regardless, I have two and that is part of my problem. The router was originally set as DHCP server, but now I'm trying to migrate the DHCP to the domain server and I'm running into problems. The router and server have...

A little background first: We had (emphasis on had) a LAN with a domain server running Windows NT-4 Server and a SQL server running Windows Server 2000 and SQL server 2000. The domain server rolled over and died. It went belly up with it's little legs kicking a couple of times in the air, then...

I've found the root of some of my earlier problems with the server locking up to some extent, but I don't know why. There is a shared Excel file on the server that is updated on a daily basis by one of the employees. There are very similar Excel files that also get updated with no problem...

I've replaced an old domain server with Server 2008. It's set up as a simple domain server, nothing fancy, no applications running from it, just a few shared files. This weekend, I set up all workstations within the company to work with no problem. This morning, it's giving me nothing but...

Our PDC recently crashed. The power supply went out and took the mother board with it. Consequently, the power supply, motherboard, processor, and RAM all had to be replaced. The system was running Windows NT-4.0 Server. Evidently, NT doesn't like the motherboard that is installed because it...

I need a little help with a situation that really has me baffled. I've built a number of reports with CR 8.5 which access a db in a SQL Server 2000. We use a viewer called Crystal Ease for the folks that need to access the reports. In the past, I haven't had any problems. Now I'm having a...

I have a report that returns all invoices dated 1 Jan 2006 and later. We want to show only those customers with total 2006 sales within a certain range and also the last year to date and this year to date sales. Kind of a "how goes it" report. I'm showing running totals in a section footer. I...

I'm jumping into my first attempt at a form letter and having a bit of a problem. First I'll explain what I have, then what I want to happen. I have a basic CR (v8.5) report that lists customers with outstanding invoices. The report has one group, the customer name. below that, in the...

The tape drive in our Dell PowerEdge 1500SC died. Dell sent a replacement and I've installed it in the server. Now, Veratas 8.6 doesn't recognize the new tape drive. I've tried add a new device via the devices tab in Backup Exec, but it doesn't "see" any drives to add. Device manager in...

I'm rather new to network administration and certainly not a professional. We have 2 OfficeConnect 8 port fast eternet hubs connected together as explained in the user's manual. The hubs are physically connected using the little stacking clips that come with them, so we're not talking about a...

We've been using Platinum for DOS for over 2 years on Windows NT 4.0 workstations and server. Recently we upgraded the workstations to Windows 2000 Professional. Since then, even with new computers and greatly increased RAM, the overall performance of the workstations has really slowed down...

We have a problem with Windows 2000 Pro slowing down, running out of memory/resources and even locking up. Here is the background information. Previously, we had a Windows NT 4.0 domain server and 10 workstations all running Windows NT 4.0. Our basic database program is Epicor's...
