I am trying to use Performance Monitor on my Exchange Server. Initially, ALL of the objects and counters were NUMBERS - and these numbers meant nothing to me. Using KB article 152513 I was able to find that the Perflib key was missing a very important sub-key and data. I have restored this key and am now getting the standard counters. The non-standard counters are still just listed as numbers and I have not had any luck troubleshooting this problem. Does anyone have any additional information - HELP!! Thanks.

Hi, We have got a split dns implementation on windows 2003. I have created a www record pointing to the IP address of the domain (A Record) I have done as suggested so that we are able to browse the domain without appending the www. hence To create a host record that allows going to the domain without using www or ftp or anything else you just add a new host for that domain that has nothing in the Name field so that it uses the parent domain. Add the IP address and check if you want it to update a PTR record and click Add Host. However, I get the following error: The associated pointer (PTR) record cannot be created, probably because the ref…

I want to be able to set up some sort of route on a XP pro workstation to have all network information sent to one ip to be actually sent to a different IP. I have client software that needs to communicate with a server but this software has a hard coded destination IP adress that I cannot change, and I cannot change the server's IP address at the moment. I need to test the software on a new server with a different IP address. Unfortunately the client software does not communicate via the server's name. Here is an example of what I would like it to be able to do. ping 192.168.0.1 to get replies from.. Reply from 192.168.0.2: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 …
