    Mailbox Manager - Untitled Attachment received :(

    Hi all. I have two exhange servers running mailbox manager. When they submit their reports to my inbox, one is called report.txt, whereas the other is called 'untitled attachment' with no file extension which is a pain in the you-know-what. Does anyone know why this is or where you can give...

    Windows 2003 DFS (Distributed File System)

    Hi all, I make significant use of the DFS system released with Windows 2000 & 2003 server. However, I find the interface very poor - its impossible to see what's going on at any one time. Microsoft seem to have addressed this in Windows 2003 R2 but unless you pay for a complete new license...

    Win 2003 Server DFS Monitoring.

    Hi all, I currently run some Windows 2003 SP1 serves at two sites and rely heavily on DFS to distribute data from one to the other. This means there is quite a bit of information flying about. All works well, but I am finding myself in need of some way of finding out what is happening - i.e...

    Outlook 2002 (Office XP) - user has to fill in 'from' box!

    Hi all, I have one user on a Windows 2003 server / Exchange 2003 domain, using WinXP & Outlook 2002 SP2, who has an odd problem I've not seen before. When composing a new email, if he hits send, it bounces back to him as the email he sent has no 'sender' information. To make things work he...

    Exchange 2000 and 2003 Coexist?

    Hi, I just thought I'd add to this to help your confidence! I did exactly the same for my company. I went from one Win2000/Exchange 2000 over to two Win2003 / Exchange 2003 servers. As anawrocki mentioned you must upgrade the win 2000 servers AD to cope with being on a win2003 domain, but...

    Dell supplied Intel SRCU42X / LSI 320-2X RAID Card drivers

    Hi, I have a 2 channel RAID card which I am struggling to get to work. I think the card originated as a Dell supplied item and is effectively an Intel SRCU42X card (which is same as a LSI 320-2X). I am finding that the Intel & LSI drivers are not working with the card when trying to install...

    Win 2003 Svr Clustering / NLB advice please?

    Thanks for the info guys! Nickferrar - whats your thought on using DFS as suggested by mrdenny? This would provide the synching you mention as missing in an NLB cluster. I can see the logic myself and would easily be able to configure high speed replication to ensure the two storage sets are...

    Win 2003 Svr Clustering / NLB advice please?

    Hi all, I'm after some advice. I wish to provide full redundancy to my file servers, so that if say the motherboard goes boom, then our files would remain available on another server. Some form of clustering seems to be the way to go, but more specifically the NLB (Network Load Balancing)...

    Delayed response from WinXP issue

    Hi all, I have an issue with a WinXP (SP2) computer, where a 20-30 second delay occurs if you right-click on an item on the desktop OR if you open a file by double clicking on it be it from a network location or a local location. It seems that the computer is waiting for something before...

    DOS Batch files won't run - HELP PLZ!

    Hi all, I have a user who has managed to mess up his PC's ability to run bat files, which is a critical function to us. When you run the files from windows, it asks for a program with which to associate the bat files, whereas normally it would execute the file itself. Furthermore, in Windows...

    Win 2003 / 2000 DFS Problem - HELP!

    Hi all, I have a serious problem it seems with DFS. I have recently transfered a working DFS system on Win2000 to include a Win2003 server. It has been working but now seems to be having some trouble replicating. I have noticed that, in the DFS Snap-in, if I right-click on the main root in...

    Outlook Folder Refresh Issue

    I seem to have solved this in my instance - a simple case of not enough RAM.....by increasing RAM in the server from 2GB to 4GB and in the workstation from 256MB to 512MB, the problem has stopped.

    Win 2000 Svr ----> Win 2003 Svr

    Have also now found this article: http://www.svrops.com/svrops/documents/fsmo.htm which shows you can use wizards to transfer the five FSMO roles.....seems straightforward?

    Win 2000 Svr ----> Win 2003 Svr

    OK, well the book I have which is for Windows 2003 server, does say that this is done either via dcpromo (the easy way), or using ntdsutil (the hard way). I must say, it seems to make sense to me - if you demote the DC which has the FSMO roles using dcpromo, then you are removing AD from that...

    Win 2000 Svr ----> Win 2003 Svr

    Ok, I've been doing some reading [smarty] Can you tell me if this seems ok and/or if there is anything else I need to look into?: You transfer the FSMO roles with dcpromo it seems, demoting the old server once the new one is up and running with AD. dcpromo will then transfer the FSMO roles to...

    Win 2000 Svr ----> Win 2003 Svr

    If I wish to change my W2k domain controller for a Windows 2003 one (or another Windows 2000 one for that matter), is it simply a case of installing the new server to the domain (with AD), remapping the workstations DNS server value, and then removing the old server?

    Emails 'left' in queue directory.

    Correct, I did post in an earlier thread, but as nobody picked up on it, I put it up again. I was hoping someone might respond to your additions and give us a way forward. We are also on SP3 and I have applied the latest post-SP3 rollup, but this still hasn't cured it. The messages being...

    Emails 'left' in queue directory.

    I have a single W2K (SP3) server with Exchange 2000 (SP3) installed. The email system is working fine, but a small number of messages which have been delivered to their receipients remain in the queue directory. Any ideas why this is happening or what problem it indicates? Many thanks in advance.

    I knew it'd be simple :) I know SM well, but couldn't think what it stood for - doh! Thanks for your help.
