We've excluded 192.168.0.255 from the range of addresses, because .0.255 was actually being assigned (when we checked the DHCP leases), but should it have been assigned? It seems like that is an invalid address and just because it was/is in the range doesn't mean it should be assigned... after...
We've disabled the DHCP service and rebooted the machine, and then it gets the self assigned address of 169.254.x.x (as if it's disconnected from all networks). Our subnet is 255.255.254.0, so the range of all of our devices (PCs, IP phones, and about 8 printers) is 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.1.254.
We have a Windows 2003 domain with clients using DHCP and have plenty of free addresses available, but there has been one machine that gets assigned to "Network 2" instead of our domain, and it gets an IP address of 192.168.0.255. It then cannot access the internet but can reach some resources...
www did have its own entry; they sent us the zone file and there was an entry for www.domain.com and one for domain.com. They changed one but not the other since we were not explicit....all good now, thanks notRoman and TechyMcSe2K!
We've had our ISP change our A record from the address that comes to our network (we were hosting our site internally) to an external address (now we've moved to having it hosted). We requested that they change the address from 255.x.x.1 to 254.x.x.2, and now that they've done that all traffic...
We've just begun to use Gmail, account is set up with our domain, xyz.com, we have dual delivery going on for pilot users, I can use my new gmail account to get a forwarded copy of all email and can send from it to anywhere....but one user when he logs into his gmail account can send emails to...
All great questions - we bought them all previously owned and would need to connect to them to tell you that. They were set to factory default before use, but I'm looking to connect via browser to find out those answers; I don't want to connect to the console port on each switch but would...
We have 7 DELL Powerconnect 3248P 48-port POE switches, and all but one are connected to each other with the RJ-45 Gigabit port (labeled G3 and G4 on the switch). The last one is connected from its G4 port to the second-to-the-last one's regular 10/100 port (#21, in this instance). This last...
We have a Laserjet P2050dn that is experiencing a problem with printing. If you print out an excel document titled 'ABC invoice', the 2050 will print the invoice. If you then print out a test page from the PC, it will print out the ABC invoice again, but not the XP test page. Then when you go...
In terminal services manager on a Windows 2003 server, it shows the normal few remote connections that we have that show up with a state of "Active", plus a standard RDP-Tcp (listener) entry for one connection showing a state of "Listen". This morning, when I connected, it showed one additional...
Do Automatic Updates sometimes cause this? We've seen before where a server that is set to receive updates automatically will get a security update (or some update that is critical?) and in the morning, it will say it unexpectedly shut down. We would prefer that not to happen, but we know...
that day was the last day this error happened, we ran NTDSUtil.exe tool to manually remove the dead server from AD and then forced replication for all the other servers. At 5pm that next night, the user did not get locked out, and hasn't since. Every now and then, we'll still get a machine...
I had checked that link previously, and we went through and cleaned up AD by removing the old server and adding the IRPStackSize registry key on that problem computer/user's computer. On the new server, we did find an error & warning specifically mentioning that problem user at the same time...
Checked the event viewer and there is also an entry in the Application log that shows an error with an event ID of 1053, source of Userenv (Windows cannot determine the user or computer name, Group policy processing aborted) for the last two nights at around 5:00pm....
We have a user that got locked out of the network (couldn't access network drives, but for some reason could still send emails) at 5pm yesterday. We unlocked the account, reset the password, ran an anti-virus scan, didn't find anything. Today at 5:05 (24 hours after unlocking the account...
We are using the HP Network Configuration Utility on these servers, and it looks like it finds the NICs, allows you to select them both and then the option to 'team' them shows up. Also, tried it while connected to DELL PowerConnect POE switches and it showed a speed of 200Mb (100Mb x 2), but...
We have two NICs on a W2K3 server, one of which is not being used. Will plugging into that second NIC increase the speed of users' connections (will it allow quicker file transfers because it spreads out requests across both NICs)? Since it's a server, should the IP be set to static like the...
When one user goes to lunch, he locks his PC, when he comes back (could be an hour, could be 3 minutes) and hits Ctrl + Alt + Del, he's presented with a blank screen that just shows his background bubbles and the mouse pointer, nothing else...Anyone ever seen this? He has dual monitors and we...
We have a Windows 2003 Server with Disk 0 with a total of 546Gb (Basic Disk). We have the C: drive showing 97Gb and the E: drive showing 314Gb, both in blue in the Windows Disk Management tool, and we have 136Gb unallocated in black. I want to add all of that 136Gb of space to the E: drive so...
