Well, you see, my concern is not that the service is denied access. In fact, I am glad that it IS denied access. I want to know who/what is trying to start this service. It does not show up in the Services list. I don't believe it is a proper service. My concern is that it might be some kind of...

When you can't ping the server from the workstations, can you ping the workstations from the server? Can you ping each other workstation? Also, in your switch, is there a connection (or more than one) that seems to be having excessive activity? (lights blinking so fast that they are almost...

If the answer to the previous post is no (in other words, you're not running an SQL server, or anything of the like) then go for Linux. Red Hat (www.redhat.com) or SUSE (www.suse.com) will do the trick. If you're looking for a brand new machine, Dell has some very decently priced servers that...

Like Dutch62 said, in User Manager you can select multiple users, then press enter. This way you can enter settings to affect a lot of users as once. You can select single ones with ctrl-click, or entire sections with shift-click. Additionaly, when you are doing this, you can enter...

Many of my clients have been randomly getting these errors in the system log: The FUTUREX service failed to start due to the following error: Access is denied. Event ID: 7000 Source: Service Control Manager I have not been able pinpoint what creates this. As far as I know, the only...

The memory leak document http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;322125&Product=exch2k says that SP3 fixes the problem. However, I'm running the latest SP and patches and my store.exe still uses as much memory as the server will let it. I've try the limiting of threads and other...

Just as an update to this old link, after much discussion with the bosses, they agreed to let me migrate our illegal NT, Exchange, Backup Exec, Groupshield , etc. to an all-Linux solution. I had to do it on my personal time (weekends). But it's all now up and running like a charm. I no longer...

That looks like an awesome piece of software, and I thank you for the recommendation, however their license does not allow for use in a corporate environment. While the goal of this tool is for "my personal use" in helping my job become less taxing, that's really a stretch on terms...

Hello all! I am looking to purchase some kind of software that will run on a workstation and give me a profile of basic information about it like: CPU type/speed Memory amount Hard drive space (used/free and max) Programs installed Even better if it can export to a text file or something. I...

I am not familiar with Checkpoint firewalls, but others I've used assign the IPs themselves. In those I have seen, you can see the netbios names of the computers connected to the firewall (I am assuming PPTP). I'm not sure how helpful this is, as you might be looking for a more permanent...

I have successfully done this by following this directions: First, during the entire process, leave client workstations off. Assuming your current server is named Chocolate (this is the name you want to keep), install your new server as a backup controller named Milk. Copy/move all your data to...

I am wondering if you guys have opinions/ideas on how to work around the issue of employers that make us install software we know they don't own or have a right to use. In these days, nobody can afford to lose their job. But I also want to cover my own behind you know? I do not like having to...

I assume you have restarted the server after editing the registry?

While my experience with this problem has usually been physical problems with the tape drive and/or the tape media, I've also had this happen when not using the Veritas device drivers. As a rule of thumb I now use Veritas tape drivers exclusively. Without them you often get freaky results. If...

You might want to check the Masquerading howto: http://www.linux.org/docs/ldp/howto/IP-Masquerade-HOWTO/index.html Because the commands widely vary for the different kernels (2.0, 2.2 and 2.4) it is in your best interest to read that and if you have questions after that come back and post them...

I found the problem with mine. There was a second NIC in the server with the range x.x.2.x when we use only x.x.1.x The card was plugged in alright, but not configured to do anything. Like Glen said, the packets were doing something screwy. I second the opinion of checking for bad packets.

I guess I'll have to set up one of my test servers like this, remove the pagefile and see if win2k will boot without it. I'll follow up when I figure it out. Unfortunately most of my clients are small and only have entry level servers with no hardware raid. Often, asking them to invest more in...

I am having a similiar (or the same) problem. Users repeatedly get the message about the server not being able to validate their password, and then after a few tries it logs on (even without having to retype the password). I thought it was faulty network card, but replacing it does not solve...

I just started working with a new client whose Win2k server is doing software mirroring. I noticed that the partition X: that is used solely for the pagefile is also being mirrored. Wouldn't it be better (in performance) to have both disks have unmirrored partitions and page only to the disk0? I...

Ok, I know I am frustrated and probably missing something really simple, but does anybody know how to open one of these desktop computers? There are no visible screws but there are two buttons at the sides towards the back. I am pressing on them and trying to pull back, forward, up... I'm about...
