    Ex2k3 Store Driver 327 warnings

    Starting over the weekend we've started receiving complaints that internal mail messages are taking much longer to be sent. We have a total 4 mailbox servers and one front-end server. We don't believe any of us made changes to the servers leading up to this. We are seeing messages queuing up...

    Advanced Management Module Question

    I'm pretty well experienced with the Blade Ceenters but we just got our first one with the "Advanced Management Module" This is the one with the USB interface instead of the PS2 ports. When I power up the blade the leds on the keyboard blink, either in unison or sequentially. I've figured out...

    Fast then slow

    I recent installed a replacement server for a customer and since they had installed a Compaq SDLT 320 drive in their old server I transfered the tape drive to the new server. The new server is a Dell PE 2900 with a SCSI card just for the tape drive, winning Win2k3 SBS R2. We're using Backup...

    What happens if I change the time on a monitores system?

    I've had the question posed to me regarding MOM, but I'm not a MOM expert... What will happen to the alerts/info coming from a monitored server if the time on that machine is changed. I don't quite understand why, but apparently it is something this person does a lot for testing. My...

    hide domains from from browse list?

    Is it possible to hide some or all domains from the browse list? Say you have a root forest domain of company.com and two child domains of foo.company.com and bar.company.com Is it possible to keep users in the foo domain from seeing that the bar domain exists when they go to a browse list...

    BE 10, EX2k3, can't backup mail boxes

    I know there have been other threads about this but I still can't backup the mailboxes. I could back up the mailboxes until, for purposes of a Hosted Exchange Service, the default Global Address book was removed. The admin account I'm using has an email box, the box has been initialized, and...

    3005 tunnel won't stay up

    I'm stuck... I have a customer with a Cisco 3005 VPN Concentrator. I don't deal with these very often, if ever. I was able to create an IPSEC Lan-to-Lan tunnel, and the tunnel seems to work... that is as long as there is nearly constant traffic on it... It won't stay up more than 90 seconds...

    Multiple AD domains, one exchange server. Possible?

    I have a client who is insisting that he wants to have a forest root domain, several child domains, a *single* exchange server, and seemless, single authentication in outlook and Windows. I've tried googling, but all I seem to come up with is the "Hosted Exchange" model. I know that isn't what...

    Drag action hesitates at first

    I just inherited a Compaq Evo N1000c running XP-Pro w/ SP2. I have an MS Optical Intellimouse attached to it (in addition to the touchpad and stick) on the laptop itself. When I try drag a window or dragto select text, I have to move the mouse a certain distance before windows seems to decide...

    Job Properties report: BENT10.0d

    Feel free to dope-slap me if there is an obvious answer to this question. I have created a series of jobs using a policy, and when I did so the job configuration summary was displayed. I would like to get another copy of it (I didn't print it the first time) now. Does anyone know how I...

    BE 9.1 is trying to backup folders that don't exist

    thread481-883705 discusses this very issue, except that while I have completely recreated the selection list, doing so only fixed the problem for one day. Veritas' (Symantec's) answer to this problem is to take out the object in the selection set that no longer exists... Except that the folder...

    Can I make an events list show events from the past?

    We have a need/desire for a list that generally behaves like an Event list, but will show us not only upcoming events, but recent past ones as well. We want this list for brown bag lunch type meetings where we can post the slide deck or Webex recording after the fact. By default the regular...

    PerfMon and Exchange

    I've looked some, but haven't found what I think I am looking for, can anyone help? I'm looking for a list of 'key' Exchange performance counters to monitor and what their thresholds might be. I'm pretty well experienced in monitor core Win2k3 Server Perf Counters, but I'm not sure what should...

    WSUS working but not

    Sorry for the long post but here is the log from one of my (problematic) client PCs: 2005-09-01 08:29:35 1792 784 Misc =========== Logging initialized (build: 5.8.0.2469, tz: -0500) =========== 2005-09-01 08:29:35 1792 784 Misc = Process: C:\WINDOWS\System32\svchost.exe 2005-09-01 08:29:35...

    WSUS Client Download folder cleanup

    No one seems to have posted this explicitly, and I ended up having to ask someone at Microsoft to find out. The files in softwaredistribution/download are deleted 10 days after the patch is installed. If you know the patch is installed, you can go ahead and manually delete the files (and...

    DFS planning question

    We have 10 offices that have DCs and File Servers (75% have been upgraded to Win2k3). Each file server has four shares for the users ("shared", "Projects", "Users", "Support") though the exact contents of each vary from office to office. I would like to use DFS so that user could access each...

    PPT: how do I tell if a "save" or "save as" is in order.

    I'm trying to use the application event "PresentationBeforeSave" to handle launching a dialog for collecting custom document properties. In Excel, _workbookbeforesave has a SaveAsUI boolean value that can be used to determine the application is going to give the user the SaveAs dialog or if it...

    OL2003 - html mail message format question

    Our environment uses Windows XP and Office2003 with Outlook2003. I have one user who is experiencing or perhaps causing a strange issue that I can't quite figure out: When he creates a message and specifies the font as arial and sends the message, it all loks like you'd expect it to on his...

    HTML Signatures in Outlook2003

    I have created an html based signature file using good html practices to be used in outlook2003 (ie I'm NOT using the <font ...> tag. I am not using Word to edit my messages, nor did I use Word to edit the html. When I go to Tools>Options>mail format>signatures and select the new one, it...

    What do I get when restoring a VSS backup

    We are in the process of upgrading our branch office DC/file servers to Windows 2003. One of the benefits of doing so is VSS. I enable VSS on the user-data drive so that when they delete something (accidentally) I can show them how to use the "Previous Versions" client installed on their XP...
