I don't know about the ifmember.exe program, never used it. But, all the features you need are easily available using VB Script in Active Directory. Dave.

Rewrite the batch file in PowerShell. David.

Are both the Win-2012 and the Win-8 servers in the same domain? The problem sounds like permissions, the Win-2012/Win-8 will hide files thea the user does not have permission to open. You may have to set up each as the local administrator only. Dave.

If it is anyting like the one I just did, you will have to change your DNS so that the names match the IP's on the servers you are changing. The area I had trouble with was DefaultFirstSite. Dave.

Problem solved, I figured it out. It was the forward lookup zone transfer record in the DNS. I had to manually point to the new potential PDC rather than the existing PDC. I think because the old PDC is 2003 and the potential new PDC is 2012, even though the domain is still at 2003 level it...

I have been trying to promote a 2012 server to a domain controller. My error is: Verification of user credential permissions failed. The wizard cannot gain access to the list of domains in the forest. This condition may be caused by a DNS lookup problem. For information about troubleshooting...

Thanks for the reply itsp1965, could I just leave it where it is for the time being and just demote the 2003 domain controller back to a member server? Then later move it to a 2012 server when there is more money. Dave.

I have upgraded our domain controllers from 2003 to 2012. The DHCP used to be on the 2003 primary domain controller and as I would like to remove all the old 2003 domain controllers from the lan, I would therefore need to move the DHCP. Does the DHCP have to be located on a domain controller...

Thanks man, after I re-read the Tech Notes again I realized that I should fix that before, so I did. Now I have that problem taken care of and on to the next. I've been thinking about the DHCP and the IP of the old server. The new server will have a different IP but all the static...

Thanks for the help ShackDaddy, should I change the mode to native before I upgrade, or after? Dave.

I think I've discovered the answer to #1, adprep for the forest and schema will fix up the 2003 domain to the 2012 level. Maybe on #2 replication will fix it up, not sure on this one. #3 I can't find anything specifically wrong the the current Forest Level. Maybe it's ok? Any additional...

I am currently starting an upgrade from domain controller Server 2003 Standard x86 to Server 2012. I have studied the information in thread: http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1706296 I have a couple of questions: 1) First, I install the 2012 server and add to current domain and...

This may not even apply, please disregard if so. I have had a similiar problem with a program written in a different language. The user would leave a modeless window (form) to do something else and when returned, the focus would be put back on the original window but the database alignment had...

Do a system restore to a date a couple of days (or however close you can get) before this happened. It should be gone. Dave.

We have a new 2012 server in the box and I want to do some lab work with it before is is incorporated into our domain. I understand that 2012 does not have registry restore points any longer. What is needed to create an artificial restore point so that when I'm done practicing I can just...

This function doesn't remove drives that were mapped using vbscript. Why? # # Function RemoveMappedDrives() --> # FUNCTION RemoveMappedDrives{ # --------------------------------------------------------------------- PROCESS{ $oNet = New-Object -ComObject WScript.Network $n1...

I'm looking for the correct parameter positions for this call. Especially the persistent, username, and password positions. $( New-Object -ComObject WScript.Network).MapNetworkDrive( "K:", "\\server\share", $True, "username", "passwword" ) Using the above syntax the drive will map but...

We have a Server 2003 LAN with XP-Pro, Vista, and Win-7 workstations. Currently my login script is written using vbscript and controls drive mapping, printer mapping, and proxy server connections. We are considering a move to Server 2012 with XP-Pro, Vista, and Win-7 workstations and I have...

Is that the only printer you have?

Sorry...
