DFS - Conflicted and Deleted folder
by Guest darth lawb- 0 replies
- 107 views
Hi Our servers DFS replication service did not start after a reboot and when I started it manually it complained that the DFS database had become corrupted. The server said it had managed to fix it and carried on with replication, however the conflictedanddeleted folder just grows and grows surpassing its 600mb quota!! This is bad news as we only have 20gb left on the server in question. I have restarted the same service and lowered the qouta to 10mb and I have also restarted the Distributed File System service and the File Replication Service. It seems to me that the server is doing another intial replication and the problem being that the dfs share is …

Setting up email capability on a VPC image
by Guest STom- 0 replies
- 101 views
I sent the email below to the VPC newsgroup but was told that this really had nothing to do with VPC specifically, but had more to do with how to setup a lone server that could send email to itself (like for doing labs etc where the student only has one machine and not networking capability). Here is that email: ******************************************** I have a vpc image created with VPC 2007. It is: Windows 2003 Standard SP2 with all the latest patches (named DEMOAPPSERVER) SMTP POP3 IIS Office 2007 Professional Visual Studio 2005 SQL 2005 MOSS I just login as Administrator so there are no other users on the machine.

Login Script problem.
by Guest Sandeep K- 0 replies
- 295 views
History of issue:- All users belonged to the Single(e.g:- S) OU in the Active Directory. This OU(i.e S) had Group Policies assigned against it and a number of Logon scripts were run. All users were located in one location with no problems. A project was raised to separate the users in two different OU ( E.g:- U1 and U2) because of businesses requirment and the in new building was prepared. As a joint exercise, the U1 users and U2 users were separated into 2 newly created OU's (e.g:- S1 and S2). These new OU's ran the same GPO's (with some slight differences, mainly branding) and the same Logon scripts. The U2 staff were moved to new building. At…

Write caching

I have 3 onboard hard drives. 1 is an old scsi drive. 2 others are identical SATAs. SATA is remapped to ide here for bootability (older SATA). Under device manager, selecting any of the hard drives, policies, write caching is enabled under write caching and removal, optimize for performance. XP does this by default, none are removable hard drives. Noticed there's a slight performance loss when write caching is not enabled. But, in one 3rd party application use, while its READING the XP partition image of one of the SATA hard drives image results on another hard drive, a verification error may occur from time to time.

Print server failover
by Guest andreazannoni@gmail.com- 0 replies
- 117 views
Hi, I have a NT (sigh!) domain and 2 w2ksrv set up as print servers. My will is to set up them identically for failover: once the first goes down, changing the ip in wins table, I'd like to redirect the print trafic to the second. And so far no prob, I created the same spools with the same names in both the servers. The prob is that when I switch, it says "not allowed". I know that there is a known problem making this in 2003 (pointing a dns record with a name different from the server one)...is this the case? Or else, how can I do?
