    Does ARCServe Backup 12.5 support HP USB DAT72

    I last dealt with ArcServe several years back, and implemented an upgrade from version 11.1 to 11.5. If I remember rightly 11.5 supported USB tape drives... but I'm afraid I can't be certain. If 11.5 supports USB drives, its pretty likely that 12.5 will. Also, if it's any help, a few years back...

    WSUS on Servers

    I don't think there is an option for that. I think the closest you get is under 'Configure Automatic Updates', Enable this, and choose '3 - Auto download and notify for install'. Because some updates require a reboot following installation, you can't choose to install the updates but not...

    Backup Exec 2010 R3 - Error backing up VMware VMs

    Hi, Its been about a month since you posted this, so no idea if you've resolved it, but on many occasions, removing the VM from the vCentre Inventory, then re-adding it seems to fix a whole load of unexplainable Backup Exec and VADP/AVVI backing up problems. Of course the VM has to be powered...

    WSUS Computer Group sync to AD

    Don't you just run the 'Server Cleanup Wizard' from within the WSUS console, under 'Options'? I've only got 200 PC's to look after, so its not a major problem for me, so not really used the cleanup wizard - but would make sense that it does stuff like this. Thanks, Mark

    Reinstalling SBS2003 R2 OEM on HP ML150 Proliant box

    You sure ML150 is Smart Start'able!? The most recent ones I've dealt with (about 6-8 months back), they supported the P200 (I think) controller, but not 100% sure you can Smart Start it. I have a feeling for 2003 SBS you'll have to plumb a USB floppy in, and press F6 during setup to point it...

    2003 Server Crashing at Night

    Auto reboot is unlikey, as this would be a graceful shutdown, and not give the 'unexpected shutdown' error. Its usually (in my experience) Hardware related - CPU increase due to a Backup or such... or RAM for a similar reason. This would indicate a hardware fault. You will see in the System...

    Make "last know good config" "the normal startup config"

    Hi, The Registry stuff (HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet) gets written to following a successful logon. Windows keeps a number of copies of the Reg Keys - Current, Backup, etc... So, if you make a change and the Server won't boot correctly, you can use Last Known Good to revert the registry...

    change from POP3 mail to SMTP feed

    Hi, Maybe a bit late, but I'll stick my comments down anyway! Leave Exchange pulling from POP3 (once you're running SMTP and there is no mail in the POP3 account, all it will do it download nothing... once the POP3 accounts no longer exist, exchange POP connector will error - but it won't break...

    Printers need replacing.

    1) Why would the server not be able to 'control' the printer if it were wired? As long as the printer is on the same network (or has a route to the network its on), then it can be managed, regardless of the way it connects to the LAN. 2) centralised management, prioritising jobs, etc..... If...

    Assign an IP/port for External User

    I take it the AC unit is on the same network as your server and the rest of your IT kit? Find a free ip - check your DHCP scope - 2008 SBS by default has a scope from 192.168.1.11-254 if I remember rightly (it will reserve 254 too, if the router is on that). So, assuming you're using the...

    Windows Home Edition accessing server

    Assuming everything is setup correctly (DNS is correct, DHCP doing the right 'stuff' for each subnet, and there are routes between networks if you have more than one Subnet/network), then yes. Browse/connect a drive to the Server from the Home machine, and you should be prompted for the Server...

    WSUS- imaged servers not present

    Does this help at all: http://wsus.editme.com/ClientFAQ I've not done any work with imaged Servers, but I have recently had problems with Servers that were trying to update from our old WSUS Server - even though checking in, they won't update, because they were still trying to install a bunch...

    SBS 2008 & outlook 2007 remote.mydomain.com pop up

    There was a problem kicking around to do with Exchange only being at SP1 (the default install in SBS 2008), but the lastest Updates being installed on top of that for the Server. You need to install Exchange SP2 (preferably SP3, but I don't know yet if there is an install Tool for SBS - maybe...

    Needing a Floppy to get drivers installed!

    Hi, 2.5 hours to install SBS 2008 on an ML115 - thats not bad!!! As you may have gathered, I'm less than a fan of these beasts, but they do their job I suppose... The last time I re-build RAID 1 on 2x 250GB drives, it took over 15 hours for each build (replace one drive, allow for rebuild, then...

    Needing a Floppy to get drivers installed!

    Hi, I've installed 2008 SBS on several ML115 G5's - note before going any further, stick at LEAST 6GB, preferably 8GB (max for the hardware) RAM into it... I've never needed the additional nVidia RAID controller drivers - like you say, Windows Setup detects the RAID Controller (as it loosly is...
