    Migrating to Windows 2000

    We're still waiting for the corporate rollout of 2003, hence having 5.5 running. I'm building a test enviroment now with a copy of the 2k3 DC and the 2000 server. Hopefully that'll prove out whether restoring exchange breaks the connectivity.

    Migrating to Windows 2000

    Domain B is running. Permissions wise I couldn't see any problems with bringing up the services. I'd created a new service account in Domain B and added it as a full admin on the NT4 PDC + at Org, Site & Config levels within Exchange. Have you upgraded NT4 to 2000 when it was a PDC? Cheers Rowan

    Migrating to Windows 2000

    We're changing domains as we need to remove NT4 from the network to comply with an audit. There's 400 mailboxes on the server and it's part of a wider exhange organisation, hence wanting to preserve the machine name. I'd like to avoid exmerging if possible as the priv db is 27Gb. Cheers Rowan

    Migrating to Windows 2000

    Current situation: 5.5 ENT SP4 on NT4 PDC, Domain A, only machine in domain. Windows 2003 AD single domain forest, Domain B, 2003 functional level. I've built a 2000 server with the same name as the NT4 PDC, connected it to Domain B by just having it plugged into on of the 2k3 DCs. Installed...

    Office 2003 edit hyperlink dialog spaces replaced by %20

    In both Word and Excel 2003 SP2, when editing a hyperlink that uses the email address format spaces contained in the subject line are replaced with the web safe %20 character string. This makes editing the text very difficult. How do you stop this from happening? Regards Rowan

    Remote Scripting calls work locally but not from client

    Running IIS5. We have an asp helpdesk which uses RSExecute calls. These work fine if you log into the intranet server and try and use them. However from the client end the RSExecute function always returns -1. I've tried fiddling around with various error reporting methods and it seems that the...

    Returning data from access using ADO

    Hmm (this is a slightly one sided conversation - feel free to butt in ;-) ) I've noticed that the functions that don't work properly are all in a separate script (RSHelpdesk.asp) is there perhaps a problem with remote scripting? (apologise for the newbieness of this - rather steep learning...

    Returning data from access using ADO

    Oops, that bit does work. Here's the one that doesnt: Function getRequestDetails(requestID) SET DBConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") DBConn.Provider = "MSDASQL" DBConn.Open "DSN=helpdesk;UID=;PWD=;" Set Session("DBConn") = DBConn...

    IIS 4 -> 5. Problem with remote scripting (I think)

    I've since narrowed this down to a problem with the ADO connection into the access database - moved the post to the ASP section (delete this thread please!)

    Returning data from access using ADO

    I've just changed over my intranet server from NT4/IIS4 to 2k/IIS5. Now one of the sections of our helpdesk doesn't work: Function getLogDetails(logID) SET DBConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") DBConn.Provider = "MSDASQL" DBConn.Open...

    IIS 4 -> 5. Problem with remote scripting (I think)

    Last night I swapped out our decrepid old NT4/IIS4 intranet server for a lovely new Win2k/IIS5 box. I copied the whole site across and put all the shares/permissions back. We have a helpdesk that uses ASP and an access 2000 database as the backend. Most of the ASP pages were written by a guy...

    Problems installing OWA

    Hi folks, We're running Exchange 5.5 SP4 on one NT4 SP6 server and I want to install OWA on another. As we upgraded to 5.5 from 5.0 to allow an installation of OWA I first need to install the Active Server Components from the 5.0 CD. When I try and install these components I get an error...

    OL2k Date Navigator/TaskPad Problem

    Hi folks, Having a problem with Outlook 2000 SR-1 running on win95. Connecting to Exchange 5.5 sp3. User opens lots of calendars and on some of them the taskpad takes over the whole of the right hand side of the view, obscuring the date navigator. If she resizes the task pad the date navigator...

    Rules stop working

    Running Exchange 5.5 sp3 and outlook 98/2000. With increasing regularity the rules on some of our directors (of course) that autoforward mail to secretaries stop working. If you go into the rules at the client end and use the "update now" option it seems to sort out the problem...

    Optimal Swap File Size

    Hmm the good old traditional 1.5*physical. Thats the old linux bible method ;-) Was wondering about your FAQ where you say to put the pagefile on the root partition. Any real reason for this apart from dump checking? I've got mine on a separate partition (which is why i wanted some advice...

    Optimal Swap File Size

    I'm about to stick another 256Mb of RAM into my machine which will bring it up to 640Mb (£20 for 256 - you cant really complain.) What I want to know is what's the optimal size for Win2k virtual memory with this amount of RAM. I've always used 2*physical as a general rule but this seems a bit...

    Unable to logon. Net logon service not running.

    This problem tends to arise when win2k hasn't detected your NIC completely but has setup the networking components. Logging in as local admin then doing a hard reboot should resolve this.
