    Active Directory Replication

    One other item. I went into Replmon and brought up MS1. It shows FO1 as a Bridgehead Connection. I have no idea why this server has this designation. It is not a bridgehead server for either IP or SMTP. Thanks

    Active Directory Replication

    1. I unchecked the Bridge All Site Links checkbox to see what happens. 2. The reason I am using site link bridges is that I am getting errors on an a Field Office (FO2) that states it cannot replicate to another Field Office (FO10). FO2 & FO10 do not have a VPN connection between the two so...

    Active Directory Replication

    Here is my situation: 1 main site with 2 Domain Controllers. One of the servers (MS1) has the FSMO roles assigned and is the Global Catalog for the site. The other server (MS2) is there as backup. We have 11 field offices with one Domain Controller each. Each Field office server is a Global...

    Migrate Standalone server to 2008 Hyper V

    We found a piece of software from Microsoft called Virtual Machine Manager for 2008. One module has a way of creating a VHD from a physical machine. We haven't used it yet but will see what happens. If I remember right the software goes for ~$1500. This includes 3 or 4 other modules dealing...

    Migrate Standalone server to 2008 Hyper V

    Hopefully someone has an answer for this question. We are getting ready to deploy 2008 with HyperV. I know with VMWare they have a converter package that will take for an example a standalone application server and move to a virtual server. Is there a program out there that will do the same...

    DFS: Users accessing multiple shares

    Just to let everyone know I am not DFS literate. The guy who setup our DFS has left the company and I did not get much training. Currently we are running DFS and I have figured out how to setup roots and links with no problem. At the same time we are running a VBScript that does our...

    Exchange 2003 recovery

    We finally used Acronis Enterprise server to clone the hard drive. We did not go with purchasing 300Gb drives due to the fact we already had the 146Gb drives and it is lot less painful going through a root canal than trying to get our company to purchase anything. I will check on the event...

    Exchange 2003 recovery

    We thought about this but was not sure it would work. My thoughts were that with Raid5, each disk had to be the same. If I put a 146Gb disk into a Raid5 that were utilizing 74Gb drives, it would not recognize the 146Gb drive or worse, bring everything down. Have you done this before and if...

    Exchange 2003 recovery

    Here is my scenario: Exchange 2003 on a hard drive. Hard drive is actually 3 - 74Gb drives setup for Raid5 so have approximately 150Gb available but only 7Gb free. Want to replace the 3 - 74Gb drives with 3 - 146Gb drives. 1. Have looked at the documents on the Recovery Storage Group...

    Hard drive needs format

    Sorry for not getting back sooner. We finally reformatted the drive. We had copied to an external drive while it was in the server but due to being over 250Gb of data, wanted to transfer faster than over the network. That was why we installed in the 2k3 server. Thanks for all the replies.

    Hard drive needs format

    I have a hard drive that came out of a 2000 server. I want to install it on a 2003 server so I can get the data off. When I put it on the 2003 server the 2003 server says that the drive needs formatting. I do not want to format until after I get the data. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks

    Microsoft VX-1000

    I have a Microsoft VX-1000 web camera. I downloaded the software from the web and everything installed with no problem. The problem now is that the screen takes up half my desktop. I have looked through every configuration option and there is nothing beyond changing the resolution to resize...

    Modular All-in-one

    I am looking for an all-in-one printer/copier/scanner that has a modular setup. IE: If the scanner dies, all I have to do is replace a module in the all-in-one instead of having to send to a repair store or replace the main board. Thanks for any help

    FSMO roles

    Went throught all the sites and services and made sure server2 was in each site. When I go into the Charlotte site and choose server2 and then tell it to replicate with one of the servers it gives the message to the affect that the other server is in another site and it could take a few minutes...

    FSMO roles

    Looking further into the problem, some of the external sites are having no problems. They are replicating and working fine. The ones with the problem, when I go into NTDSUTIL and look for the FSMO server, it shows the old server (server1) and not the new server (server2).

    FSMO roles

    1. Server 1 will boot up but like 58sniper said, I can't bring it back on line. I am going to have to rebuild totally before I can put back on our domain. 2. The other servers in the field offices are looking at server2 for DNS. Thanks for the responses

    FSMO roles

    Here is the problem. I had a Domain controller (server1) setup on our domain. I did a reboot over the weekend and all of a sudden it went to h***. It would not recognize the domain or get on the domain. Unfortunately, it was the Operations Master. I was able to do a shutdown on the...

    Have a domain admin that is a member of the Domain Administrators and the Enterprise Administrators group. After last weekend cannot make changes to certain users in his domain. Those users are greyed out when he gets into their properties and he is "Denied Access" if he tries to make a...
