I'm trying to trouble-shoot slow network access problems with our w2k server. When running nslookup, I get this message: "Can't find server name for address 192.168.1.202. Non-existent domain. Default servers are not available. Default Server: Unknown Address: 192.168.1.202 An outside...

I'm testing the DHCP settings on the server before I start using the feature company wide. I configured my PC for DHCP. When I shut down and restart my computer, the address assigned to my PC will not release. I have to run IPCONFIG /renew to get the IP assigned again, or delete my listing...

I installed w2k twice on my new hard drive, the second time over the first installation files. Now at startup, I get a menu asking me select which OS do I want and I get two choices, both for Windows 2000. How do I get rid of this startup screen?

I'm installing a second server on the network that will be running SQL 2000. Since there are only two servers, I want to set it up as a domain server so the global catalog is backed up to this server from the primary server, along with the AD. When I was done congfiguring the second domain...

I am setting up two w2k servers. One is already in place and is the Domain server. The second server will have SQL on it and that will be its only purpose. Do I make the SQL server a domain server, or just a member server?

I have a user with a MSWord problem. When she tries to use File, Open, from the menu, or Crtl-O, or the File Open icon, Word will shut down. She can open files from the drop-down menu under File, or she can open files from Windows Explorer. But the File, Open feature in Word will not work...

I initially set up a computer with w2k server and AD for testing on the LAN. It was called server1.companyname.com. Since I was new to w2k servers, we hired a consultant and he set up a new server that we are now using. He set it up as FS1.companyname.com. So both servers were online at...

I've got something wrong in the login scripts syntax for the server because the network drives won't disconnect when logging off. I've got net use v: //server/folder \persistent:no What's wrong with this syntax?

I configured DNS on the new w2k server so all Internet IP addresses resolve through it. The forward lookup zone has the Internet provider listed and everything works - except when I try to access the company website. The server is called fs1.companyname.com. The forward lookup zone is called...

Like most workers, I think I'm underpaid. When I look at sites such as salary.com, the info there states that with over 4 years experience (I have 6 years now) I should be making a minimum of $61,000.00. I don't make anywhere near that. Can anyone else who is a Network Administrator tell me...

When I attempt to log onto the w2k domain, it takes about 15 minutes. The screen sits at "Loading your personal settings" for about 10 minutes, then "Applying your personal settings" for another 5 or so minutes. This only happens when I choose to log onto the domain. If I...

I'm in the process of switching from a Novell 3.2 server to a w2k server. I have been configuring the Windows 2000 workstations ahead of time with the domain info so I can eventually just copy everything over, delete the Novell clients on each PC and have everyone log on to the new server. One...

I'm currently an IT Administrator want to get away from a service role into a position that doesn't require me to fix printers or tell users for the MILLIONTH TIME how to enter their user name to log onto the network. I've been thinking of learning web development, like javascripting, html and...

My manager wants me to learn ASP to create an application for a database to use on an SQL server. Should I learn ASP or ASP.NET? He wants me to learn ASP, but when I go to the bookstore, I find mainly ASP.NET books. Is my boss behind the times? Is ASP good for some apps and ASP.NET is good...

Right now we have a Novell server and everyone belongs to a certain printer group which dictates which printer uses which LPT port in their department. When we switch over to the the new Windows 2000 server, how do I assign printers (capture printer ports) an LPT port in a login script? For...

I set up a W2K server for testing with a w2k pro workstation and Win98 workstation for testing. The Windows 98 computer cannot browse the Network. The only way that I can get at the w2k server via the win98 PC is by using Start, Search, Find Computer. I type in the name of the server and win98...

I know that net use can map network drives on login, but how to I disconnect drives when someone logs off the network?

I'm trying to map network drives to folders on the w2k server. I can map to a main folder, but cannot map to sub-folders underneath that folder. (I can do this mapping in Novell, which we currently are using.) I tried sharing the main folder with Everyone, but still cannot map the...

My company is switching to a w2k server from Novell 3.2. There are batch files for one app that contain the utilities 'revoke.exe, grant.exe, ndir.exe, and tlist.exe'. Are there wk2 server utilities that perform the same or similar functions to these Novell utilities so I perform the same...
