Hi, Apologies if this is the wrong forum for this, but I am trying to upgrade our PC's on our network from 2K to XP Pro, and I am not able to get the unattended build to recognise that there are other drivers to copy from the server for the NIC and video card. I am using the OemPnPDriversPath =...

Does anyone know how to set up an AD policy (if it is possible) to allow installation of software from certain sites only? I have removed the user from the local admin group, and so installing software becomes impossible. However, we need to install Oracle JInitiator on demand from the web...

I have 2 servers loaded with 2003 Enterprise. They are both connected to an Compaq MSA1000 Disk Array. Selective Storage has been correctly configured so that both servers can access the SAN one at a time. I created a cluster on one of the servers, and joined the second server to the cluster...

I am not sure if this is the right forum for this question, but, can anyone help? I have 2 servers loaded with 2003Enterprise. They are both connected to an Compaq MSA1000 Disk Array. Selective Storage has been correctly configured so that both servers can access the SAN one at a time. I created...

I have a strange problem that I experience with an IBM x235 server. The server randomly powers down. and then up again...there is no set pattern for this. We have replaced almost the entire server now, including board, processors, VRM's, memory. We have also moved the disks with the RAID...

I have an IBM server with a 6i controller which I use for a prod server... A single RAID 5 stripe across 6 disks in an x235. A couple of weeks ago I had a disk go defunct, so, duly replaced the disk, and the rebuild starts (HA HA) in ServeRAID manager the progress bar for the rebuild never gets...

Hello all. I need to seek the advice of anyone who has attempted this before. My FSMO role holder is going to have it's IP address changed when we move to another network medium. It is also a Primary DNS server for the domain. I want to seize all the relevant roles from this server to another...

I have an issue with an AD DC that crashed last week, and the recovery from it has been somewhat messy. We replaced the server with a new one, and because the server crashed, we obviously had no chance to run DCPROMO. I went to the MS site and read up about this. Used NTDSUtil to remove the...

I don't know if this is the right forum for this, it's kinda a hybrid 2k and network question...if not, apologies. I want to know how to set the 2k DHCP server to restrict machines from leasing IP's if they are not authenticated by the dc... is this possible? Thanks in advance.

An interesting one... I have a server that I have taken offline and it's data moved to a current live server. The current live server is Windows 2000 Server in an AD domain. The server name that I was using on the offline server is still used by a lot of code written by our developers. So I...

I am trying to synchronise a Compaq iPAQ with a Microsoft Exchange server account via Bluetooth. The connectivity is not a problem, I am able to establish a connection to RAS thru Bluetooth from my cell, but I keep getting connection errors when trying to sync the mail. Do I have to sync with a...

I have a single domain, multiple site topology set up, and I am struggling to keep my logons local to the site I have set up. I have sites set up with IP Site links connecting the 2 sites. I have no problems with the site with my DC at the root of the forest, but the site that I have set up...

Just wanted to know what the general consensus is over migration tools into a mixed mode AD environment. I have tried to use ADMT and because it's mixed mode I obviously failed... any other grand and wonderful tools out there that anyone has tested before? I would really appreciate the feedback...

From what I know, in a mixed mode environment, all user logons will have to be processed by the PDC emulator, right? So, if I have a mixed mode environment in one building (creating my forest root at one site, but not converting any clients there to the new AD infrastructure) and then install...
