Thanks everyone for the replies. My hesitation to use the Exchange system's retention method of recovering Hard Deleted or emptied trash items was I guess unfounded. I enabled it on our system at the office and tested it with flying colors. In light of the fact that in a previous MS Tech...

Normally when I set a backup job to backup an Exchange server, I select both the message level and store level options. However, recently, one client's backup has begun to take forever because of the mailbox message by message backup, resulting in about 9+ GB. However, the entire store backup...

TheLad, you're the man! That did it. I'd have never thought that the nic drivers would do it! Wow, amazing.. I just backrevved from like 7.x something another from HP all the way back to like 4.19 from Compaq, and it appears to communicate just fine, as well as now it'll release the database...

Thanks for the reply.. I did load the server -ndb and do a dsrepair, that completed successfully, but of course ds reloads without the dib set after. I rebooted the server and the same thing happens. I also wanted to run a vrepair just to make sure all was ok, but of course ds wont unload to...

Against my better judgement, I installed SP7 tonight only to find that it updated dsrepair and ds.nlm. Now with ds 8.85c and dsrepair 10205.41 (i think) the database wont close to run dsrepair or a dstrace=*. Anyone else having these issues? This has happened on 2 seperate servers, so I've...

Numerous times in the past, I've had great success with changing hardware by Ghosting the server over to the new hardware, booting the system from the cd, allowing it to go through the load process, F6'ing new raid drivers in, and going all the way to the install to where it detects the previous...

Never mind, figured it out. Open licensing, as a reseller, is nothing more then a serial number thats worth the paper its printed on. Not only does Microsoft get you coming, they get you going. You pay for the privledge of having x number of users on your server, however, you still have to...

If you purchase Windows 2k SBS with an open license agreement, you get a piece of paper that says you own 10 licenses, what your agreement number etc, etc. You also get the cd's, in the little binder holder plastic cases. What you DONT get is the License Add Pack diskette. How are you...

Problem solved! First, thanks for the suggestions, but I've found the culprit. I assure yall, that yes, the OS was being placed on the drive. The intention was to install Windows 98. I would boot from the floppy, fdisk the drive, format it with a /s, so yes, the boot tracks were layed...

I did check the cables, changed them even. I did check the hdd, settings with slave/master and/or cable select. I even changed the disk, to a brand new one. I checked the cable, made sure its plugged into primary ide, and checked the connectors on both cables (changed that too), and made sure...

I recently built a system using an ECS motherboard and an Athlon 1.33ghz cpu. I installed this in a rather small case with a 250w power supply, brand spanking new 40gb Maxtor ide disk, 1 256mb sdram 133 stick, and 1 floppy. I booted from floppy, fdisked the hard drive, restarted the machine...

I have to extend a very gracious hand to Jim Harrison with Computer Associates who contacted me direct following a post I made here 2 weeks ago concerning Arcserve. Jim saw to it that I had a support contract in place and arranged a support associate to walk through my problem with me. We...

My apologies for obviously overlooking something, but my question is this: In a multiserver environment, what is the correct way to setup the Exchange 2000 Agent to backup Brick Level, when the tape drive is NOT located on the Exchange server? My problems are this. I've successfully installed...
