Been a week or two and I think the issue may well be resolved. Having followed Microsoft's advice for creating a new roaming user profile on Server 2003, I created a new user and was unable to copy the profile to the server (a known issue across many forums) until I followed some advice about...

The only recent updates since this has started happening is KB 2607712 and 2570791, which having just looked, was a Cumulative Time Zone Update, which if I look at the EventID website you sent me, the first comment relates to an issue with a badly configured Windows Time Service - I've looked...

Earlier this week, there were some Windows Updates, it is waiting to be restarted following a few more today. Having restarted all of the services again this afternoon, do you think that would be beneficial?

No AD DS service listed, but this is Server 2003, was it not only in Server 2008? When you say is the AD service running, if I go to Manage your Server, it lists: - File Server - Print Server - Application Server - Domain Controller (Active Directory) This drops down to select Manage users and...

There is nothing in Reverse Lookup Zones, but plenty in Forward. DomainDNSZones is showing _sites, _tcp as well as a text file showing the server's IP address on the network. ForestDNSZones is also showing the server's IP address (along with the _sites and _tcp folders) Have restarted DHCP...

Forgot to say, all DHCP from the server... As an aside, I have noticed errors 4004/4015 coming up in DNS event viewer pointing at an AD failure, but wasn't sure how to deal with as no-one seems to be able to give a definitive solution...

When you say <quote>set the primary DNS to the DNS servers IP</quote>, do you mean in the individual machines TCP/IP settings? Or is this something I need to push out from the server?

It was a system I inherited from their previous support provider so when it came to upgrading the system from XP to 7, it seemed logical to continue uniformity in the naming conventions. There are normally 2 children per PC anyway, so not sure it would make sense to have individual child logins...

Thanks for the advice, but I think I might be confusing the multiple login issue. The AD login names are specific to the year that is in the room: L12a (for school leavers in 2012) L13a (for school leavers in 2013) and so on to L18a. Staff members then have their own login as their name...

Office PCs have their own logins specific to the staff members so don't think that is an issue. Windows 7 PCs are named ITSUITE1 through 12 so not machine name conflict...

Little update on the situation, they were reporting the same problem again yesterday lunchtime. One of the office PCs was taking in excess of 45 minutes to login, I suggested turning off, that is, shutting down all of the 12 PCs in the computer room and restarting the office PC. It then logged...

I have been into site this morning and machines appear to be logging in as normal, but this could be done to no-one being logged on! The maximum logon time for any user was about 12 seconds, DOMAIN\Administrator logged in quickly with no apparent problems. I created a new user in AD as...

Thanks for that. It has happened only recently, that is within the last week they have been reporting major login duration problems. Today has been the largest instance of several PCs tested, all appearing to have the same problem. I created all new user logins for the new PCs as there was a...

Thanks for the prompt response. 1) AD Administrator ( DOMAIN\Administrator) 2) XP machine has always taken longer to login since Windows 7 PCs were introduced to the domain 3) Default users - no special groups set up at all It is worth mentioning that I inherited this from another provider so...

I am running a Windows Server 2003 in a school with 15 PCs running Win7 Pro and 1 PC still running XP Pro (changing to 7 soon!) and despite a few teething problems, the system has been running fine for several months. I am now starting to see issues with login times on the PCs, if I login as...

Hi all I have been having problems with this since I inherited the system about a month ago and am struggling to find a solution and I am hoping that some of you might be able to help me. Setup of client LAN is as follows: BT Business Broadband -> Netgear ADSL Firewall Router -> Zyxel 50-port...

Hi I have a client who runs an SSL VPN to connect into his corporate network and uses a standard VPN for connecting from home to his office server for file retrieval etc. When connected to his SSL VPN (Citrix Access Gateway), he cannot connect to his office server on the VPN. I am sure it is...
