PCAnswerGuy, Yes this problem was definitely one of the harder ones to solve. In my case the entry was just aux not aux2. The otherthing might be that the malware that I had replaced the wdmaud.drv path for the aux value. My one user did complain not having any audio afterwards but it could...

Hi, I found a solution that was posted in another forum. The solution was that this particular malware should be removed by renaming the regedit.exe to reg3dit.exe in order to run. Then go to HKLM\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\drivers32 check to see what entry exists for the...

Hi I was wondering if anyone has come across malware that is so invasive non of the anti-viral / anti-spyware tools can detect or remove it. Recently we had one workstation that for whatever reason had its IE browser hijacked while doing google searches. The hijack appears to happen some of the...

Hi, I have read the instructions on how to manually remove an Enterprise Root CA but was wondering if the procedure for removing a Standalone Root CA (Windows 2003 R2) from a Domain Controller is any any more or less painfull? Also, does the removal require a reboot ? Are there any issues...

Never mind I figure out how to do it. go to cmd prompt and type certutil -cainfo (may require either support tools or resource kit tools installed, not sure as I had both of them on my machine when I ran it).

Hi, Just want to know if there is a quick way to determine whether you have an Enterprise Root CA or a Standalone Root CA installed in Windows 2003 R2. thanks.

Hi all, I have a SAN that we have created 4 x 1.3 TB arrays on. They are all RAID 10 arrays. The issue is (due to firmware limitations at the moment) that we need this to be all one large array (expandable later on as we add more SAN trays). I want to use windows spanned volumes but realized...

Thanks for the tip xmsre! I had completely forgotten about Delegation / Administrator roles in Exchange 2003...

In Exchange 2003 SP2 we have a User account who used to be an administrator before installation of Service Pack 2 for Exchange (and various hotfixes). Now we have removed the user from the administrator group and need to add them so that they can have full control permissions as well as send as...

Hi, No there are no anti-virus services running on this server. Thats a good thought though. I think what we have to end up doing is just demote the controller, reinstall it and then promote it again. At this point it looks like just corruption. Thanks for insight.

Hi, I am getting the dreaded event id's 1058 and 1030 on our backup windows 2003 DC. Specifically this line (our info has been masked): Event Type: Error Event Source: Userenv Event Category: None Event ID: 1058 Date: 6/20/2008 Time: 11:05:16 AM User: <Our Domain>\administrator Computer...

Hi, Thanks. I understand what your saying about the performance end of things. It makes sense. I found another script online which does the reverse. It finds the nested groups that a particular user is set up for. http://www.jdhitsolutions.com/resources/scripts/EnumerateForestGroups.txt I...

Hi, Thanks for the responses. I was hoping there was some sort of LDAP query in order to do this in the windows users and groups MMC. The reason is that I want to be able to generate some kind of list by group rather then by user. Althought very interesting, my scripting abilities are not that...

Hi, I wanted to know if someone has a way either LDAP query or other, to create a list of users based on membership to a top level group. Under this group there are several subgroups that the users are then a member of. I have tried simple Windows LDAP query to display the list of users who...

Dave, Great, thanks for the second opinion !

Dave, I was asked the question so I had to ask. Also, One of the questions was whether changing this local Admin/ADRestore password on the server would affect any of the the local system accounts... I did read something regarding Small Business Server in reagards to this as well (we are not...

Hi all, I have read up the procedure for resetting the AD Restore Mode password for a domain controller in windows 2000/2003. Just wanted to know if anyone knows what effect (if any) changing this password has on your systems (other then the obvious). Does resetting this password cause any ill...
