Is windows firewall turned on? I've seen some flakiness on servers before (under 2008, but not 2008 R2) with Windows Firewall enabled, even with defined exceptions. Same symptoms, a few packets get through, then nothing.

IMHO, solid is easier to terminate, but (unless you have some compelling reason otherwise) patch cables should be stranded. "It's never going to move" is the theory. "The user moves it six times a day" is the reality.

RE: Disgruntled tech, take good backups, often. For the rest, it sounds like what you actually want is auditing--your people need rights to do their jobs, but you want to be sure that is all they are doing. I suggest investigating in this direction, though I don't have any specific...

If you've got enough imaging going on that you actually have a pair of servers pushing the data, I'm going to guess that you probably want 10k+ SAS drives in this application--especially if you plan to add VMs to these hosts in the future (and given that your workload is negligible in terms of...

While it's "correct" in the sense that it's true that OEM licenses are tied to hardware (at least in the US--my understanding is that in Europe, this is actually not the case), it has nothing at all to do with downgrade rights of CALs (or the OS itself, for that matter). In fact, that OEM...

Can you offer an example of a CAL without downgrade rights? Just curious.

What does smb.conf look like?

Just curious, but is the 1800 running the most recent firmware? IIRC, once upon a time, there was an issue with the 1800s that they would not behave properly when you reconfigured VLANs until they were restarted (and this was eventually fixed).

Restarting the chassis will resolve the issue, as will inserting a different card into the empty slot... I don't know of any other way.

If scripting isn't your thing, use csvde instead. See http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc732101(v=ws.10).aspx for information and examples.

If you got OEM licenses with the R520s, you cannot move the license from box A to box B--each license is tied to the machine it shipped on. Please note that I am assuming you are in the US, so if your local laws allow you to do this, please ignore. Your use of the technet license may also not...

Yes, technically each VM will run slightly slower than if they were running on the bare metal. That said, your workloads appear to be really, really small. The hardware you've specified will not break a sweat running half a dozen low impact VMs (you bought a lot more CPU than you needed for...

You shouldn't require new certificates unless you change machine host/domain names.

Are you changing your internal domain name, or just receiving email for a new external domain? If it's the latter, it's easy. In EMC, go to Organization Configuration -> Hub Transport and select the Accepted Domains tab. Hit "New Accepted Domain" and configure as appropriate. Then go to the...

Add an address object for the new subnet, add an ALLOW firewall rule for the VPN -> LAN zone for the new subnet, and you should be good to go.

You're correct--you should be using a switch for this application.

I can't help but agree with ShackDaddy... you have a four mailbox Exchange server? No way is that cost effective unless you're running SBS (which you don't seem to be). Migrate to a hosted platform--you are the perfect candidate organization. After you double in size four or five times, then...

SOLVED. For anyone have the same problem: Digging into netsh, I noticed the following: netsh advfirewall>show currentprofile Domain Profile Settings: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- State ON Firewall Policy...

Firewall log is now showing that the admin workstation is dropping tcp 1434.... which is odd, because there is a rule allowing it.
