I'm planning to study Windows Server 2003 on my virtual machine. My question is, Is Windows Server 2003 SP1 obsolete? can it still be used in companies?

Hi,

We have the a file servers.. granted some permissions on each server. Employee in our org can ACCESS the files from network share. I want the report like , who are all the has permissions to Iterator/List the folder contents remotely. (List the SIDS with permissions that accessible by remotely)

I searched.. some one give the NTFS permissions alone.. or some one give share permissions alone. But I want consolidated the permissions report. Like

user1 --- \\file-server\folder1 -- Read -- Allow
user1 -- \\filser-server\folder2 --Fullcontrol - Allow
user1 -- \\fileserver\folder3 -- Write -- Deny

I know the point, when ACCESSING the network folder, the permissions are effect in the following order..
Consolidated the Share permissions
Consolidated the NTFS Permissions
Most restrictive permissions from above two.
Please help...


It appears that this tool may only do NTFS perms, but is WORK CHECKING out (and free): http://www.solarwinds.com/products/freetools/permissions_analyzer_for_active_directory/

Otherwise, only way I can think of is doing each separate, as described here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverfiles/thread/dd621e53-b5f1-4f59-9753-f3d482dbce04/

Does anyone know how to VIEW a list of ALL folders a USER has access to on the network?

I don't want a list of GROUP memberships, just the names and paths of any folders they can access on a network drive. This is on Windows Server 2008.No NEED to triple Post...see your original Post for replies...

I am trying to build a windows 7 IMAGING server where i can boot from a usb stick then connect to the NETWORK to image new pc. This is GOING to be my first server setup and I don't KNOW how do it, please help.No need to double-post...
Someone will be along shortly.

Topic CLOSED.

Im useing an Admin Account to login to. I havent had this issue in a while an seemed like was the path that was pointing to it which, I had checked an is looking at the Server. I put in the a shined password an cant login an tried even changeing it to a new one only to have it still not login me in. Server 2008 - Windows XP SP 3 Remote DesktopDoes it come up with invalid password or any other error message?

And guessing Caps Lock or Num Lock is not issue when typing password?Its a combination of a number an one upper case letter an small letters. I can connect too it but, it wont take the password that I know it isThat's not what David asked...
Please read the question and supply the answer...I just wanted to note that but, no I DONT have that stuff on. Just comes up that its not the right passwordIf Num Lock is not on you wont get numbers from keypad ... if you are using keypad... If you have a key pad and want to use the numbers function it has to be Num Lock ENABLED.

One other thing to CHECK is that the Caps lock is not enabled on the computer by which you are connecting to via RDP. MENTIONING this only because a long time ago with a SOFTWARE called PC Anywhere I dealt with an issue where Caps lock was enabled on the server, so when I was authenticating to the server, as crazy as it may sound I had to have my Caps Lock key ON on my laptop to inverse the Caps lock function on the Server for lower case input. RDP and PC Anywhere are like Apples to Oranges, but its worth a try if enabling Num Lock doesn't help you.

I have a server running windows 2000. We have 10 computers connected to the domain. We used to use the server to share files and hold some BACKUP files. We do not need to be connected anymore. Basically, I want to do away with the Dinosaur aged server and just have each computer run independently, PERHAPS share a few folders. I have done some tests with unplugging the servers internet connection to see how the computers would react. Everything works the way I want it to (able to share folders) but the work computers lose internet. How do I set up the computers so they can interdependently access the internet without going through the server? We have a ROUTER switch. Thank you in advance!

JohnFirst, are your computers connected to the server as a domain?
Also, what version of Operating System are they all using?

If so, then each has to be unjoined from the domain and pick up their IP via DHCP from the router.

The best way is to make sure that all are on the same workgroup. Set them all to something like home or office instead
of workgroup.

Then each has to have share setup for a directory and then permissions to access have to be given.

If your router is giving out IP's via dhcp and the gateway is setup properly then each should be able to access the internet
without any problem.

RichThanks Rich. Yes, we are connected via a domain. We are all on XP Professional but the server is 2000. If I unjoin the domain will my computer automatically pick up the IP via DHCP from the router when I join a workgroup, or is this something you have to manually POINT your computer to? Also, is there a way to unjoin a domain and keep all of the settings (outlook, programs, logon info, documents, ect) the same? Thank you very much for the help.

I a,m RUNNING a SMALL network of 30 pc. I have installed windows server 2003. Now i WANT to upgrade it to server 2008 but before that i want to test windows server 2008. That is why i,m looking online for a copy of windows server 2008 with reg key. Is there any good and trusted place to get windows server 2008.We don't ASSIST with that sort of thing here...

Forum Rules...sorry. I will not post something like this again.No problem...Welcome Aboard.

2008 Trial...

2012 Trial

Both are 180 day trials i believe...

Our school is running Server 2003, all of the classroom computers and laptops log into it. The previous teacher changed the welcome text to say, "...If you have any problems please contact Mr. Schroeder." Well he has left and I contacted him to find out how he changed it. He can not remember. I checked Google and was able to find how to change the text on a COMPUTER, but when I changed it on the server it did not carry over to the client computer. I rebooted both the server and the client I was testing.

Is there some other registry setting so that the welcome screen text is changed across all CURRENT and future computers that log into the server? I went to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Policies\System and changed the legalnoticetext. It was changed on the server, and manually on a WORKSTATION, but did not change when I rebooted a different machine.

What did I miss?

ThanksThat method will work fine for any individual computer, but to make it a network-wide change you should deploy it via a Group Policy setting or startup SCRIPT. I didn't see that in a quick look through the group policy reference, but it might be in there. Alternatively, a startup script to add the registry ENTRY should work okay.

I have a hp dx 2300 and put windows server 2003 r2 standard 32bit.
hp doesn't list any windows server divers for the ethernet controller but are there xp ones compatible with it?All you can do is TRY them...they'll either work or not.I had that same computer running with the integrated Broadcom NIC and Server 2003, also ran into same problem with finding drivers. Chipset in mine was Broadcom, had to OPEN case and look at the NIC chip to get details and research, and the Server 2003 Legacy Driver worked:

http://www.broadcom.com/support/ethernet_nic/netxtreme_desktop.php?legacy=1Mine has an Intel N10 ICH 7 Family LAN Controller
which I can't seem to find any server drivers forLink below is closest match I can find for Server 2003 and your Intel NIC chipset. May be worth TRYING out on your system. Sometimes its trial and error. If this doesnt work, the other thing you can do is boot the system off of a live Linux distro and look to see what Generic Driver it is using and test to MAKE sure NIC works under this generic driver. Then hunt down that generic driver for Server 2003. Lastly, sometimes you can wrap a NDIS2 DOS driver to work for Windows/Server use but thats much more involved.

http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProdId=2569&DwnldID=18807&ProductFamily=Server+Products&ProductLine=Intel%c2%ae+Server+Boards&ProductProduct=Intel%c2%ae+Server+Board+S3000AH&lang=engThat driver only seems to be x64 and Itaniumx64.
The os is x86
how do I use a live linux distro to find the generic driver?
Right now i use 3 live linuxes:
Ubuntu 12.10
Lubuntu 12.04
GParted
This topic, now that i see it, should probably be moved to the drivers category.

my computer config:Intel core i5-2450M CPU.2,50 GHz,.8GB RAM,64 bit OS,Windows 7 Home Basic

I had installed Windows SERVER 2008 on different partition and TRYING to Install Exchange Server 2010 64 Bit but it errors out
"This installation package is not SUPPORTED by this processor type"

Please help me ASAPRan into a similar issue years ago with Microsoft Visual Studio .NET Professional 2002 on a Celeron 733Mhz. I figured since it stated it would run on a Pentium II 450Mhz that a Celeron 733Mhz would work, but I got the same error message and Microsoft Support told me to get a Pentium Class Processor system to run it on, so $600 later I installed it on a Pentium 4 2Ghz without issues.

In your situation the only HIT I find online for this processor incompatibility is with people trying to run Exchange Server 2010 in a virtual environment, although there are lots of complaints of i5 having issues with Server 2008 OS.

Not sure if your running into this CPU config issue with Server 2008 http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/334844-28-2500-features-missingI am not trying to install on Virtual environment..plain setup i tried for Exchange Server 2010 64 Bit..

UNLESS I'm misinterpreting Microsoft's specs, you need a Xeon processor to run Exchange (seems strange though). Alternatively, you could run it in Hyper-V and tell it that it has a Xeon.

What is the problem?? I tryed INSTALLING Windows Server 2003 on a VM to destroy it, but VMware Workstation and VirtualBox do not work. I planned on doing the same with Virtual PC, it LOADED past "DHCP ........." and gave an error and retryed. For VirtualBox I think it said FATAL: No BOOTABLE medium FOUND! System halted." I think a similar of Virtual PC happened to VMware.

I've searched for awhile now and haven't been able to come up with a solution.

I am relatively new to media streaming but I'll try to explain my situation as best as I can. My company is looking stream videos to all users that are connected to our network. Users may connect with their Android, iOS and Windows devices as well as use in Google Chrome.

For the time being, all of our users have Windows XP. (The videos are for training on Windows 7, which we are upgrading to.)

I have looked in to RemoteFX, but I found that it is most likely not compatible with Windows XP. I have tried IIS Smooth Streaming with Server 2012 but it looks like it needs Expressions Encoder Pro, which is being discontinued soon.
I have also tried Windows Media Services but I couldn't find a way to DELIVER to APPLE devices (no Chrome EITHER)

Does anyone KNOW of a solution that would fit the needs I mentioned? Thank you greatly in advance.The last time we had to pre-recorded stream a video we used the free services of Youtube. Posted a training video up on there and so all computers no matter of make etc, as long as it could view youtube it could be VIEWED. Youtube also allows for you to set permissions on the videos to that it can only be viewed by private party etc, but there was nothing confidential about it, so it was out in the open. Also shut off comments on it so that no trolls decide to post anything inappropriate there. It worked flawlessly and was FREE!

If you need a live stream to teach people, I haven't tried that out yet to assist.

Unfortunately we will not have internet at different parts of our company, so this streaming service will have to work in network.

Windows Server 2003 Enterprise, Im trying to setup a server to host a site from. It says that in the description that it can be used for e-commerce Web sites but, not sure what that means. Also, hardware limitations of the machine will let me probably run only this version year
E-commerce

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-commerceok, so its not good to use for just running a siteIs the website going to be open to anyone, or is it just for testing, and therefore an internal site only?No, I was going to make it Public. I know that I WOULD have to set the DHCP an everything tooAh, I was just ASKING because I would've GONE a different route if it was to be private, something easier.
I wouldn't necessarily advise running a web server from home, a) it's usually against the terms of service of most internet service providers, and b) security risks. Running a web server means opening up that server, and hence your network, to the outside world to a greater degree than just browsing. I myself wouldn't want to take the risk, not when web hosting is available for free.I didnt want to have to deal with the ad's an limitations. Also, I will have to do this at work too Standard wouldnt be good to use :/What is the purpose of this "server" going to be ? ?Just to run an host a siteQuote from: Ryuk on June 28, 2013, 09:38:34 AM

I didnt want to have to deal with the ad's an limitations. Also, I will have to do this at work too Standard wouldnt be good to use :/

You'll only get ads if you use free hosting which I would generally advise against. If you take into account the cost of electricity to run that server 24/7 you would easily be able to get a paid, ad-free web hosting plan. You would probably also want to get a static IP to run the server at home which would also cost money. This would also be faster as webservers will usually have 100mbps or even gigabit upload speeds compared to a very high end home connection which would usually get around 10mbps. You also don't need to worry about security.

Hi all, I have a issue which is confusing me. Basically, I have 2 network printers at work, 1 is a Brother printer and the other is an HP.
So here's is problem. The Brother printer WORKS perfectly on all computers WITHIN my work and the desktop remote access connection. However, sometimes the printer DISAPPEARS at times and to GET it working I need to restart the remote access.
Any reason why the Brother printer disappears at times with no reason?

The second issue is the HP printer. The printer works on all computers in my work but it does not work on the remote access. Do I need to install the HP drivers onto the server which I am accessing on remote access?

ThanksOnly reason i can think of would be power management...
Right clik the Brother in Contral Panel/Device Manager...and uncheck "let Windows turn this device off to save power."...

Dumb MS default setting if you ask me.

As to the 2nd question the answer is Yes.Fair enough. I will have a look at the power saver rubbish. What about if that isn't the problem? Any other fixes?An update - Installed HP drives on server and now it work's perfectly.

I STILL have the issue on 1 computer - The printers just seem to disappear? This only happens on 1 computer and not the other, maybe slow network card? I tried to do the power saver rubbish but there is no option for this.The network card itself may have that power feature...check it also in Device Manager...

Hello
My QUESTION How i Can HACK win server 2008 WORK at VPS soulsVM

I hioe help
regardsIt's against the forum RULES to assist you with "hacking". Additionally, it's OFTEN the case that if you have to ask, you won't be able to do it, even with assistance. I will be locking this topic, consider this a warning.

Hi EVERYONE,

I am wondering if anyone can clear up my confusion for the following situation.
In a networking practical EXAM, 5 students had to setup their own server-client network (server 2003 and windows xp)
the TEACHER allocated each student 1 server computer and 2 client computers, and the server's ip address assigned
for each student is shown below:

student 1: 192.168.1.1
student 2: 192.168.2.1
student 3: 192.168.3.1
student 4: 192.168.4.1
student 5: 192.168.5.1

I know there are two ways to connect the client computers to the server computer:
1. assign static ip address on the client computers or
2. add DHCP server

And by assigning an ip address on the client computers can guarantee both the server and clients are on the same network.
My question is how can a DHCP server give out ip address to the client computer that was allocated to me? The server can release ip address to any other student's client computers which did not have static ip assigned.

Assumptions:
1. None of the client computers for all students had static ip assigned.
2. All computers are connected to the same switch.

I would appreciate if anyone can clear this confusion up,
thank you!Read the documentation for the DHCP device.
It will have, or should have, a limited range of address that it can align.
Also, the client mt computers must each have a unique name and each network must have a unique network name.
Example:
Range of
192.168.2.1
to
192.168.2.5
will assign a maximum of five computers. No more. But only inside that range.Hi,

Thank you for your prompt rely,
I have figured out that if there are more 1 SERVERS are connected to the same switch, it is not possible for the server assigns ip address to a specific client computer, the servers actually lease out ip addresses to random client computers in this case. Another question is would it WORKS if I assign static DNS on the client computers, will they only communicate with servers that have the same DNS??

Hi all,

This might be a stupid questions but I am a bit confused about the virtual servers.

1. Say I have 5 virtual servers in a physical server, do the virtual servers share the same IP address of the physical server? or all of the servers have its unique ip address if I want to assign static ip to them. e.g. physical server: 192.168.1.10, virtual 1: 192.168.1.11, virtual 2: 192.168.1.12 and so on...

2. Say I have 5 physical servers and on each of them I will have 5 virtual servers. Do all of the virtual servers has its own domain? do I need multiple virtual domain controller? or just ONE?

3. I want to install about 100 virtual desktops on each of these virtual servers, do i need to run (TURN ON) all of them at the same time so that users can access their virtual desktops?

4. In terms of physical networking, I understand the basic concept of connecting to a router, server and CLIENT COMPUTERS to a switch so that users can access the server and internet. But say there are 1000 employees in the company, how do i connect multiple routers, switches for each server to allow user access?

I will appreciate for your help! Thanks heaps!!

We have a Windows 2003 Terminal SERVER environment which supports over 350 users. We have a requirement to use IE8 with google chrome pluggin and a new requirement to use IE10.
Does anyone know a way of using both IE versions on Windows 2003. I know IE10 isn't support on W2K3 so wondered if there was an virtualisation products or cloud products that would deliver this?
Thanks in advanceI SIMPLY can't understand the new requirement for IE10...don't they know it isn't supported on that OS ? ?MS have UPGRADE 365 which they only support on IE10. IE8 has PERFORMANCE issues on MS365 to the extent that its not really functional. IE10 isn't supported on the infrastructure we have and we can't upgrade it. I was hoping there would be a product, virtualised or in the cloud that would be able to do this.
Yes...a new version of Server.

Hi guys. I am trying to create a simple batch file. Batch file is going to do as follows

Once i click it, it will START the cmd in a certain location, and after that it should ask to user to execute a command within the same location. Here is what i have figure til now.

To start the cmd in certain location i have used the following command:

START cmd.exe /k "cd C:\Program Files\Symantec\Symantec DLO"

But when i try to get it to execute a command in that same location, for some reason it POPS up With another CMD window giving me the error sayint that this command is not recognized, obviously because the .exe file lays in the location i want cmd to start in.

Here is how my batch file looks like:



@echo off


START cmd.exe /k "cd C:\Program Files\Symantec\Symantec DLO"

pause

start DLOCommandu -ListMachines -V > C:\list.txt

Seriously, nobody can help?Maybe I'm necroposting... I don't think many PEOPLE look in the Windows Server section, and although you may intend to run the batch on a server OS, the QUESTION really is a generic batch one.

You don't need all those START commands.

@echo off
cd /d "C:\Program Files\Symantec\Symantec DLO"
pause
DLOCommandu -ListMachines -V > C:\list.txt

Hi I am not good with creating BATCH, I need ASSISTANCE creating one. Everytime my application crashes it leaves a log file, using that LOG file I want to restart the application by killing all processes first and then execute them again. If possible please help.

Here is what I need.

I want to create a batch which I will schedule to run every 1 minute or 2, it will check and do following:

1. Check if C:\MyFolder\Myfile.txt Exist <-- This is the trigger if log file is generated meaning the application got CRASHED, must get restarted.
2. If TRUE then kill all process NAMED as MyApplication.exe (There are atleast 4 - 5 instances running, I want to terminate all)
3. Once terminate then run three instances.
4. Run 1st instance "C:\Program Files (x86)\Application\application.exe" FirstInstance Parameters - Wait for 60 seconds
5. Run 2nd instance "C:\Program Files (x86)\Application\application.exe" SecondInstance Paraameters - Wait for 60 seconds
6. Run 3rd instance "C:\Program Files (x86)\Application\application.exe" ThirdInstance Parameters - Wait for 60 seconds
7. Delete C:\MyFolder\Myfile.txt
Exit

When I say Parameters my application has three different shortcuts on desktop when we execute, each have different parameters something like:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\MyApplication\Application.exe" SYS=PROD ATP=NPL

Thanks alot
BablooNevermind managed to create the batch to full fill the requirements.

Thank you.

and can't find any subfolder in that part of the Registry which mentions the Team driver. Folder 009 is WAN Miniport. There some folders that represent each NIC, but I'm not going to edit the registry unless I'm sure I'm editing the correct section.

Also looked at

Eventually after deleting the drivers for all NICs and connecting VIA ILO then reinstalling NIC drivers, Team drivers, and BIOS firmware, and rebooting it finally worked.Glad we were able to help you!

Often the solution to a problem is ---
the ability to state clearly what it sis.LOL!

Actually, you have a point.

An import part of Analytical TroubleShooting (TM) is to methodically document the Object/Defect and specify the What/When/Where/Extent of the problem, and so by posting the question on this forum forced me to use this process to demonstrate that I'm not a typical noob. By doing the required research I was able to resolve the issue for myself.

Please help me I have problem on windows 2003 server service pack 1 version 1812 enterprise edition , previously infected virus then after cleaning virus, it will not start the Operating system then I repaired the operating system. After repaired the operating system it works properly, but when I click on manage user and computers in active directory cannot open the active directory . Here it is the massage displayed “MMC cannot open the file C:\windows\system32\dsa.msc” so how to solve this problem . tank you in advance While this has not been responded to in some time, in case you are still awaiting a solution:

I would PERFORM a clean install of Server 2003. Generally repair installations will FIX for corruption by MALWARE etc, but whenever a system has been hit by a virus or malware I dont chance it with a repair install as for there is the potential for the repair installation process to skip over replacement of files that have been altered and so formatting the hard drive and then a clean install is best.

*As ALWAYS back up important data first before any format and rebuild process, however if a system was hit by malware or a virus, I'd perform an extensive virus scan of that data before introducing it back to the clean BUILD.

I have many UNIX servers which will need to SFTP to a Windows SERVER. The Windows SFTP account contains a file named xxxxx/ssh2/authorized.

How do I specify multiple UNIX public key FILES? I had done this at one time, but do not RECALL how I GOT it working.
If I have files named server1.pub server2.pub server3.pub, how should my authorized file look like or the pub file? I tried so many different things but have been unsuccessful.

Much appreciated in advance for any HELP....

I am USING Active Directory, and I set my GPO to FORCE .mp4 files to open with Quicktime. I have it set to where it is installed VIA GPO but not able to open the files on these machines with quicktime. Instead it opens with WINDOWS media player. What am i doing incorrectly? Attached is a screenshot.

I purchased a Dell Poweredge 2850 and i am getting an error message as follows;

client mac addr: 00 14 22 22 c0 ea guid: 44454c4 3800 1034 8036 b8c04f363931
pxe-e53: no boot filename received
pxe-mof: existing intel boot agent

pxe-E61: media TEST failure, check cable
pxe-m0f: existing intel boot agent

strike f1 to retry boot, f2 for set up utility

i have no clue what this means can anyone help me. I called Dell and was unable to receive help as previous owner's account is on hold.Replace the CMOS BATTERY...Part # CR2032...with all powe removed.
Then connect power and re-boot.

Was the PC used ? ?yes the pc is usedTry the above 1st...and report back with RESULTS...
It may have been setup to boot from a Network...which means you should WIPE the HDD and do a clean install of the Windows version of youre choice...

All Drivers will be at the Dell site.Is there an operating system on the server or have the hard drives been wiped. Try putting a bootable CD/DVD in and see if it will startup from that. It's fairly common for a PC to default to network boot if there is no OS on the hard drive and there are no other bootable devices present.how do i Replace the CMOS battery?

Make sure everything is unplugged...do i have to buy a new battery?still same error
Which OS are you trying to install? I seen this error before when I trying to install linux on a USB drive that wasn't formatted for fat32 it was NTFS.

Hello all, (NEW to the forum!)

I am trying to figure out a way to install a custom font onto our large multiple farm server cluster.
I have someone who needs to virtualize Microsoft Word 2010 and Microsoft Publisher 2010 but they need to use a custom font.
Typically, as I understand it, you would install the font file either by double clicking it to install it or dumping the font file in the c:/windows/fonts folder.
The problem arises when you have multiple servers, obviously this is quite cumbersome and will be tedious to do if requested again.

So my question is there an easier way to implement something LIKE this? MAYBE through roaming profile so the fonts follow the user? Or is there another LOCATION or method to remedy something like this?

Microsoft Office 2010 suite
Virtual application environment
Windows Server 2008 R2

Any help would be greatly APPRECIATED!

We have a WINDOWS Server 2008 and I am finding MANY shared FOLDERS that were copied over from one year to the NEXT but we are no longer scanning to many of them. Instead of searching each folder to see if it is empty, is there a SCRIPT I can run on the server to grab just the empty folders and delete them?

Hello,

I am facing a very specific error with one of our web application which we are working on. The application deals with large number of images and is required to fix the images in appropriate section on word template - MS Office 2013. For some reason the application has started throwing error during the process of generating the DOCUMENT: Error: The graphics filter was unable to convert this file (MS Office Word 2013), which STALLS the application complete.

This is QUITE urgent..

Any help - SUGGESTIONS - much appreciated..

hi
i am using windows 2003 SERVER. i want to execute some scripts when my server starts up.i have edited autoexec.bat file . but my scripts are not executed.


any idea why this is HAPPENING ? ais anything else i have to do?I don't think autoexec.bat is used anymore.

Place a shortcut of your script in the Startup folder.where is startup folder?I can't tell you the exact location in 2003.

But its in Profiles-&GT;Start Menu->Programs->Startup

Have a lookhi
i go the startup folder but the problem is how to pass the arguments to the program.Will these be runtime or hard written?thanks vibhor for u ANSWERS got how setup all the THINGS...
Glad to hear that all things are working.

Would you recommend a ThinkServer TS140 w/ Server 2012? Is it too much for what I would like to do? I only need to set one up to save files remotely, remote printer plus remote desktop and maybe a domain. Could I get away with a very high end i7 or a low end Xenon? It will be used in my home only. I have regular "off the shelf type" home pc with 32 gb of storage on a 500 GB HDD, 2 gb of ram and Windows 7 Pro now, but that won't cut it for if I want to set up a domain and saving files over the network from other computers to the "server" I know 1TB or 2TB would be an overkill now, since I don't use more then a 32 GB partition.

Recommendations? (only want a Lenovo)Older equipment can be used as a server. Your stuff looks good.
A domain will cost about $10 per year.
Le's review this. You want to have your own server located in your house you want to get into it from other places while traveling. Is that tight? How much data? 10 GB? Or maybe vc20? Most people seldom have more that 40 GB of personal data.

Noways many people use a "cloud" service for remote data. I have two I got for free. I also have two DOMAINS I use separately where I could store a large amount of data. But one thing I have never tried. I have never tried to build my own server.

Do you want you to make your own server for:
- better privacy?
- unlimited storage ?
- lower costs?
- as a hobby project?
The above could all fit your needs. But be aware about the downside of have your own DIY home service.
The capital cost is high, unless you already have the hardware.
Leaving it on 24/7 without somebody in the house may present a fire hazard.
If you want it to have high speed transfers, you will have to rent special connection. Most Internet connections are asymmetrical. The speed is faster in one direction.

Having somebody else do all the work would coast about $50 per month, but with limited storage.

There are a number of articles about how to build your own home server.

Power turned out to be the big differentiating factor on our Home Servers. While the dual-core Intel machine drew a meager 49W at idle and 70W under load, the quad-core Athlon was a juice guzzler in comparison--pulling 71W at idle and 90W under load. While it's true that it's a little unfair to compare power use between a dual-core and quad core, the performance (in video transcoding and network transfers) and price are close enough that we're comfortable making the comparison. And, the fact that the Intel machine was fast enough to do what we wanted while pulling less power was enough to make it the winner of our Windows Home Server test.

Do not read this is you really hate Linux.
LINUX HOME SERVER GUIDE
You don't have to like Linux to use it.
Linux is well fitted to low-cost server. It works well both on a local network or on the Internet. At one time near half of all servers were sing some form of Linux and Apache. And not just because of cost. The software is well supported.

Is this to be mostly a server for people on the campus or facility?
How often would users have to get into the server from across town or across the state? Because in some places a local company can help you with a fast WAN to cover a limited region of a city.
Just saying....

I am concerned that having a device on the LAN that is not on the domain and has no ANTI virus installed COULD expose those DEVICES on the domain to attack. Is this possible and are there any PAPERS written about this subject?

Hi everyone!
I want to create a group policy in Windows server 2008 R2 to do the following controls on selected GROUPS;
1. Disable the DELETE key
2. Disable the CTRL + X
3. Disable Right key of mouse
4. Disable Drag &AMP; drop operation through mouse.
5. Disable File & EDIT Menu in folder
The objective is to create Group policy is to restrict the user from Deleting any file from local computer. This objective is not totally fulfilled by windows folder & file rights policy.
Thanks in advance.

I can't configure "Connect to Internet" when I click start wizard, error
message prompt "The wizard cannot set the DHCP scope options. Ensure that the
DHCP server is running and that a scope is defined. Alternatively, disable
the DHCP service manually, and then configure your client computer IP address
properties. For more INFORMATION about manually configuring client computers.
See help and support"

DHCP Service always STOP when I click start.

Server: Dell PowerEdge 1800, has 1 network card. Do we need 2 network card
for setting up DHCP server.

Can anyone advise me.
nickie, you should probably be more DESCRIPTIVE about your overall goals. If it's just to connect that machine to the internet, what it's telling you is that you have your network connection CONFIGURED to obtain an ip address automatically. However, in order for it to do that, you need to have a DHCP server that can assign an ip address to it. Usually broadband routers or gateways will have a DHCP server built-in. If you know your network does not have a DHCP server, then you must configure the ip address manually like the message suggests.

Hello,

I am new to scripting and was wondering if anyone knows or can assist me in running the WMIC command (/output:C:\users\username\softwarelist.txt prduct get name, version, installlocation) within a batch file to get a list of software that has been installed on every single server on the domain. Any assistance would be much appreciated. In advance, I Thank you for your time and trouble.

Respectfully,

The Windows Management Instrumentation Command-line (WMIC) is a command-line and scripting interface that SIMPLIFIES the use of Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) and systems managed through WMI. WMIC is based on aliases.

Without using aliases, you can use the same options with the CLASS command. For example, CLASS Win32_Process GET Name, HANDLE, PageFaults. However, you must determine the name of the class from other SOURCES. To do the equivalent of the alias Where clause, you must use PATH Win32_Process.Description="explorer.exe".

I am using Windows Server 2003 and I need to delete DIRECTORIES that are for example 2 weeks old, is there a way to automate this process?

Wether it be a script or some 3rd party utility?

Thanks!http://www.winsupersite.com/images/reviews/winnet_ho_000.gifCan you GIVE me a better idea where to go once I get to this screen?

I'm new to Windows Server 2003.

Thanks!Try setting up EmpTemp as a scheduled task. I would also take a look at EmpRunner, part of the PROGRAM, as it might be possible to schedule this part alone.

You can add folders to EmpTemp as you like.

Click on the link below for more info.In unix you can do it very easily.

Install Cygwin, it will give you a unix env.

Hi EXPERTS,
There is a PC with WINDOWS Server 2008 R2 OS on my LAN NETWORK. Im using it mainly by RDP.
All of a sudden it started to have problems: Its apparently running but I cannot connect neither by RDP nor the connected monitror does not detect any input.
I have to reboot to make OS RUN on monitor or network again.

Any SUGGESTIONS how I should analyze this problem?

Thank you

okay so i have a SHARED fax on server 03, one of the domain clients claims she isn't receiving faxes. i can send faxes out fine, they show up good on the fax console. i try to send a fax to myself, and it shows as line busy on the fax console (as it should). the not received faxes in question do not show up on the console. is it even possible for faxes to be sent out fine but not be received? ok my bad. under tools, deep into "configure fax", theres an option to set your hardware device to receive faxes. stupid me, i assumed when you set up a fax, it would send and receive without further configuration!Well Done...Quote

No luck either with fax console. Maybe perhaps try using an alternative, such as RingCentral Fax or Home Office Internet Fax? I've used both before and they seem to work pretty well, and in the same ways console should work. Just an idea!

Says fixed but we are having similiar problem. Just bought some new Windows 7 machines and need to use our Server 2003 shared fax printer on them. Can bring up the printer but scan is non responsible when i try to send a fax the Windows Fax. I can wait it out and it takes about 10 minutes and then the it sends the fax. The fax server works fine on all our other machines XP and Server 2003, but they all use fax console instead of Windows fax and Scan. Anyone have any ideas, or is there a way to install fax console on windows 7.

thank you for that advice, i am well AWARE of that.
I would make a copy of the 2003 Server CD using NERO. Copy to HDD first and then to a new good quality CDR using data verification and see if the new CD is any better.

I have XP on drives C: and D: and had Server 2003 INSTALLED to a folder on drive F: for a while.ok i might GIVE that a try thanx MAC.

I have windows x64 installed on my pc, but it does not work right for all 32 bit applications. I WANT to install winxp 32 bit on my external hard drive so that I can run both. Is there any way to fool the bios into thinking that the external hard drive is internal (winxp cannot be installed on externals)? Taking the HDD out of the external case is not an option as I have to return it to its owner sometime in the future. It is a 100gb QueM3 firewire driveAre you trying to install windows on an External hard drive because you are going to connect it to another computer.... That wont work on the newer version of windows cause, I trued it before. It will give you an error message cause the DEVICES ex. video card, sound card. Will be diffrent then what it has stored. Id you just want to install 2 diffrent OS, I recomend you have an Old OS install first then install the new OS as new clean install instead of update. That really would work better. I Don't think Windows will work on external hard drives because 1. You always have to transfer infomation back and FORTH and a USB firewire can only go so fast. 2nd. If your wire becomes loose or falls off for some reason it will hurt the computerno, I just wanted to use the two different operating systems on my one computer so that I could run all my old 32 bit apps. I dont believe that there is any way to repartition my existing hard drtie without losing everything so I want to install the second os on my external.How is your drive partitioned and how much free-space does each partition have?

I have XP on drives C: and D: as you can see at left. I have also had Windows Server 2003 running in its own Folder on the F: drive.hello mac,

xp allows you to use multiple o/s on your pc.
what you need to do is create as many partitions on your disk as o/s you wish to install.

i.e 3 o/s = 3 partitions.

then install each o/s to a partition.

when you "boot up", xp will ask you which o/s you want to run.

give it a try,

regards pcbuilder
That is what I am doing now...
