Hello, gurus. I am currently running a Windows 2000 Terminal Server with some fairly restrictive group policies in place (i.e.: no desktop, auto-run some software, hide the start menu groups, etc.). My problem is that we run some software that requires a connection to a mapped drive located on...

Greetings, gurus. I have what should be a fairly simple problem to solve (but of course it's not, or I wouldn't be posting here.) I admin for a small company who just recently upgraded to Exchange 2003 from IMail. I had to take a small vacation, and when I returned I found that the Exchange...

I have several web-sites set up and running beautifully in IIS 5.0 on a Win2K Advanced Server. My only problem is this: when I shut down or reboot said server, I have to manually go through and re-start my FTP site and all web sites. Is there any way that I can set them up to start automatically?

When I attempt to access my PDC from the network using a UNC path (\\pdc\share) I get the error "\\pdc is not accessible. You might not have permission to access this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. Logon failure: the...

I run a remote application server and would like to set it up to map a network drive automatically for each user at logon. How can I set this up?

I'm getting an error message from a Fax Sharing Client PC when trying to sync with the Fax Sharing Host in WinFax 10.02 in Win2K. I'm fairly sure that my Host setup is correct, because I have a Fax Sharing Client on Win98 that is working correctly. The error message states that the requested...

I have an application that needs to run in several remote sites and tie in to a central SQL server. The application is written in Access modules, and communicates through an ODBC connection. I have attempted to set up an ODBC connection to the SQL server, but have noticed a significant lag in...

I am running Windows 2000 Advanced Server on a single Xeon 2.8 w/2 gigs, functioning as a combination PDC, DB Server, Terminal Services, etc. My problem is that spoolsv.exe constantly hogs 50% of my processor. Was hoping someone would be able to help me out with that.

Hopefully I'm posting this in the right forum. If not, let me know, and I'll repost. I administer a domain for a small company. We run some proprietary software that operates as a front end over a SQL 2000 back end, with an ODBC connection. My problem is this: several times a day, various...

Every morning, I must reboot my Terminal Server in order for my remote sites to be able to log in. If I do not, they are able to partially log in before the connection fails and they are disconnected. This occurs as the desktop is loading, normally with half or more of the icons showing...

When I open up Terminal Services Manager, either locally or through a TS or RDC session, the screen gets to "gathering information about this server" and goes no farther. My client connections do not show up at all. Has anyone seen this before, and if so, how can I fix it?

Anyone seen Win 2K Server just completely lose the boot files out of the boot drive? Server shuts down all on its own, and upon a reboot, reports that the ntldr is missing. In fact, all boot files are missing. Boot.ini, ntldr, ntdetect, all the good old boys decided to take off. Would love...

Should the boot.ini for advanced server have "Windows 2000 Advanced Server" listed for the os, or just "Windows 2000 Server"? Thanks in advance. -J

Got another good one for the Tek-Tips gurus. Monday, 2000 Advanced Server (SP4), DC with AD, also running SQL Server 2000 was infected by SQL slammer. After making repairs, and a frantic round of patching, got system up and stable on Wednesday. Saturday, system shuts down on its own. When...

Just a quick question, really (at least, I hope so). I recently set up a remote site that runs certain programs on a server located in the corporate home office. I am wondering how I can set up the printer at the remote site so that work done on the server can be printed to the printer at the...

I'm running Win2K Server with DNS, not Active Directory. I have several domains defined, with all the standard entries (www, ftp, mail, etc.) However, the main domain itself, i.e. mycompany.com, does not resolve properly. How can I get that to resolve to the proper IP address? Thanks in advance.
