Hi, I have configured the sp2 firewall via group policy to allow file and printer sharing for a specified range of IP addresses. When I log onto the local machine that I am testing this on, although the settings on the firewall for file and printer sharing are greyed out (because they are...

I am currently running in Mixed Mode, and have been for quite some time. I have no more nt4.0 BDC's and am about to get rid of the rest of my win98 workstations. I know, theoretically, I should change to Native Mode, but I havent been able to come up with a good reason why. Also, we still use...

Hi, Somehow, a system restore point got infected with a trojan. I need to delete this system restore point. How do I go about doing that? It says the file that is infected is located in: C:\system Volume Information\_restore {insert long alpha numeric string here} Thanks, Sharyn

Hi, I have 5 remotes sites, and my main site here. Each remote site has a DC that users at that site authenticate to when they log onto the domain. Due to a password policy change, I need to force all my users to change their password, a site at a time, at the next logon. However, I don't want...

Hi, I have a weird terminal services licensing issue. All of a sudden, after working correctly for a year, one of my win2k pro clients has "lost" its terminal server license. According to the license server, it was issued a temporary license which is about to expire. I need to know...

Good morning, I have a question concerning Active Directory and XP pro. I am probably missing something here really simple so forgive the dumb question. I am running an AD enabled domain. On my win2k pro boxes, when I doubleclick on My Network Places, I get an option for Entire Network. When I...

Hi folks, I have about a day to fix this before the IP Address leases on my remote machines expire and I dont have a way to renew em. I have a remote site in Kentucky. This site had an nt 4.0 server, acting as a BDC, a WINS server, and a DHCP server. We purchased them a new win2k server, I...

Some new developments in my never-ending quest to get browsing working correctly again since the win2k upgrade. Yesterday, in another effort to at least isolate the problem, I turned the computer browser service off on ALL my DC's and member servers EXCEPT the original machine I upgraded, that...

Good morning People. As if it isn't bad enough that browsing is not working correctly on my domain, now I am getting an error message when trying to use the browstat dumpnet function. On the lastest server that I just upgraded to win2k, that was an nt4.0 bdc, when I try to run browstat dumpnet...

I am still troubleshooting (or trying to) some browsing issues I'm having on my network, mainly, that my browse list is only complete some of the time, other times, its just a partial list. WINS seems to be working regardless as I can connect to any machine on the network, including machines on...

All of a sudden, over the weekend, one of my win2k DC's is unable to replicate with its primary replication partner, or any of my other DC's for that matter. I am unable to ping, from this particular server, using the FQDN of my other servers, however, I can still ping using their internet...

Good morning fellow techies, I am having VPN issues that I never had before I upgraded my nt 4.0 PDC to a win2k DC. Here is my setup for my remote users: They dial into AOL or whatever ISP they use. They connect to my firewall, via a PPTP VPN connection. The firewall gives them an IP address...

Hi everyone, I am getting these error messages in the event application log approx. every 5 mins. I have been on the MS KB all morning, and while I have found many articles concerning the event codes that I am getting, none of them have the error message that I am receiving... The Group Policy...

Ok, got this bright idea to set another win2k DC to be the Domain Master browser, thinking that perhaps something is hosed with the current DC, which is why the browse list isn't working right. Stopped the computer browser on the current Domain master, went into the registry and set...

Hi, I would like to know if there is a command that will allow me to see where my client box is getting it's network neighborhood browse list from. I was thinking one of the net stat type commands would work but I dont know which one. What I am trying to do is see which box is acting as the...

Has anyone successfully upgraded their nt 4.0 PDC to a Win2k DC, still had WINS running on the remaining nt 4.0 BDCs and the new Win2k DC and managed to get it working right? Only about 1/3 of my clients are showing up in network neighborhood and I can't figure out any rhyme or reason to the...

Hi, I just upgraded my nt4.0 PDC to a win2k DC. I still have 5 nt4.0 BDC's on my network. WINS on the win2k DC is not functioning correctly. I have verified that the BDC's are push/pull partners. I have enabled WINS logging to see if I can get a clue what is going on. I am getting an...

Dumb question..but I think I'm having a brain fart. I now have 1 win2k DC and the rest are nt4.0 BDCs. I change someone's password on the Win2k DC and I want to synch it with the remote site's BDC. Where is the tool to do this? In nt4.0 its administrative tools/server manager. I know I am...

Hi, We have an NT 4.0 domain with a few win2k member servers. All our domain controllers are still nt 4.0 (until tomorrow) One of our member servers is a win2k terminal server, with Citrix Metaframe XP on it. My understanding of the licensing services of a win2k terminal server, is that the...
