Hey guys, hope someone can help me. Although there has been no changes that I am aware of, our SBS 2008 standard server no longer backs up. If I access the backup tab from the SBS console, it will sit at querying for quite some time, and then finally say "not configured". If I open the actual...

Being that most software today requires the registry, installing software to a mapped drive will probably not allow the software to be used anywhere on the network. Combined with the obvious performance decrease of pulling the entire application off of a mapped drive, is there any benefit to...

I can't seem to figure out this thing, so any help is appreciated. I understand that you have to pick the folders/files where the file agent sould be run. Why not just choose the root of c:, so that all files would be used by the agent? Also, what values should I use for configuring? Also...

I am running full backups of our DC's, but most of them fail because of certain databases like wins, dhcp, .net, etc. that cannot be backed up. We have the open file agent, but it doesn't seem to help much. I also run system state backups every night which I believe contains the registry and...

I'm having a ton of trouble getting my File Replication Service running. Everytime I try to start it I receive the error: Could not start the File Replication Service on the local computer. Error 1053: the service did not respond to the start control request in a timely fashion. The error is...

Need some help figuring this out. I have a few small banks running on terminal servers in our office. We would like to find a better redundanct solution in case the terminal server goes down. Currently, we are just running basic backups and a raid 5 config, but if the mobo goes out, per say...

Hey guys- I need some help with this. Almost every morning users are getting kicked out of the terminal server when they log on. After a few repeated attempts they are able to get in and work normally. When the problem arrises, we get a few errors in the event log: Event 1004: Reporting...

Hey guys- I need some help batting heads on this one. Here's what we have got: Two domains, trusted. Domain A has absolutely no problems talking to the other domain, Domain B. Domain B cannot talk to domain A ONLY from the domain controller. If I sit at any other machine on Domain B I can...

For the life of me, I must be losing it because I can't figure this out, or find anything on it. I'm sure it's easy, but I'm asking for help now! I have a script that copies my documents to a folder every night on a second hard drive, for backup reasons. I want to set the script up so that...

We recently ran into a strange problem. For some reason, Microsoft Exchange Server doesn't show up under the windows licensing applet. We have a few other servers in our offices on separate networks, and it shows up under those. Has anyone seen this before, and do they know how to fix it...

We do some work for a few banks and the FDIC wants a list of all users and their rights and priveliges. I'm curious if there is a way to print that, or a piece of software (inexpensive or free, if possible) that would do that? Currently we have to truck through active directory and write it...

We have a bunch of other 2003 servers in the office that do not have this issue, but for some reason this new one is giving me problems. Don't ask what it is done this way, as I don't agree with it, but when we install software, it is installed on the terminal server to a mapped drive on...

We recently built a new domain controller for our network. I finally was ready today to remove the old server from the network. I fired up DCPROMO to remove active directory, and it errored. By following some MS documents it turned out we had to remove AD by typing dcompromo /forceremoval...

I'm working with a server that was built many employees before me. I'm having trouble figuring out where a login script is defined on the system. Basically, the users login and automatically have a drive mapped when they login. Normally, I would expect to find the script defined in Active...

We have an old DC that needs to be replaced with a new server we picked up. The old server is just a DC. It doesn't have exchange, or anything like that. It just runs AD, DNS, and a few file shares (which are mapped through a login script). I need to move everything to new hardware with the...

I'm having trouble with backup exec on a server in a client's network. I'm trying to backup the "system state" (which is in the shadow copy components) on a Windows 2003 terminal server in their network, but I get this strange error when trying to select it. When I click on "Shadow Copy...

OK, here goes... We have a windows 2003 server that was working fine until some genius crashed it the other day. I'm not sure what they were doing when it crashed. Ever since this has happened we have this sparatic problem of accessing the server from the domain. The clients appear to logon...

Hey Guys- I am EXTREMELY new to the windows server environment. 2 days new, to be exact! My boss is curious if there is a way to save group policies so that they can be applied towards different Domain Controllers in the future. "Figure out a way to not have to reinvent the wheel every time we...
