Thanks for the response. My technician onsite has rebuilt the server by reinstalling the TCP/IP Stack and other networking components. It was a long slow process, but the server appears to be working correctly now. I'm still not 100% confident in the stability of the server at this stage, so...

Hi One of our Win2K servers has started unexpectedly shutting down, as well as displaying weird events in the System log. Just before the latest reboot, the DHCP service generated: Event ID: 1004 Description: The DHCP Client service is shutting down. The following error occurred : A system...

Hi, We needed to restore the database because of disk IO errors that were popping up in the Application Log. Running CHKDSK revealed bad clusters in Priv.edb and Pub.edb (but zero bad sectors, further tests ruled out possible HW failure, which left the file system). I decided to wipe the drives...

Hi all, I am attempting to restore my Information Store (Ex5.5 Sp4) from backup. When I go to start the Info Store, the transaction logs are automatically rolled into the database successfully until the process gets to the LAST log file. Then, I get these errors: ESE97; ID:124; Desc: (1960)...

No adapters bound to tcp/ip are enabled for dhcp". ..means that your machine is not configured to obtain an IP address automatically from a DHCP server. It must have been configured with a static IP address at some point. If you no longer know what this address should be configured as, run...

Wow thanks David. That FAQ article explains alot. This may have been the cause of the behaviour experienced at the start of this thread. I sometimes get SCSI port errors on my jobs, which may also be related to conflicts between the Tape Engine and the system drivers. While the backup job...

Hi David, I decided to take the server down completely (outside business hours) - as I figured maybe a driver could be in some kind of suspended state. We established that it was not the hardware, from the testing you recommended, and I doubted it would be the tape engine, as I had stopped and...

Thanks again David, I went through the process and created the simulated tape drive. I then created a small job (one folder, registry, system state - from local server) and submitted it. The behaviour was the same. The job immediately switched status from Ready to Done (with the red tick) and...

Hi David I am a little apprehensive about running the simulate -ca utility, as it displays a notification advising "Use at own risk! Product not supported by CA". Also, when I attempted to run it and chose 1 - Add Simulation Devices, it asked me for: "Number of Boards to simulate?" I am not...

Thanks for the responses guys. Cyklops: I checked the Device Group Configuration and I only have one group called "Group0". Within that group, there are 20 entries, corresponding to the 20 slots in my tape library magazine. The "Available Devices" section is empty, signifying that there are no...

Hi All, I am using Arcserve 2000 AE on a Win2000 Adv Server. When I schedule a Job to run the status of the job goes from "READY" straight to "DONE" without backing up anything. There are NO messages logged in the Activity Log to indicate that the Job ran. I have also tried: - Stopping the...

Good call lander215. I had overlooked that setting. What if you want a different application to run at login for a different Global group? Can you assign a Connection to a particular Group? What if a user is a member of multiple groups with multiple connections (ie, an administrator) - can...

It depends on what type of domain you have. If it's Active Directory, you can easily use group policy objects (Accessible as a snap-in in the Microsoft Management Console) to lock down the server so that only one or two applications run. You can also set these applications to run automatically...

Thanks lander215. I will give it a go this weekend. When administering a terminal server, is there any problem with performing these admin tasks through a terminal session? Or is it all supposed to be done locally? Almost everything I've done from an admin point of view, I've done remotely...

Hi all, I am currently using a Win2K Adv Server to deploy a single application to a user group - through Terminal Services. The problem is, I am running this server in an NT4 domain. Everything is working perfectly, except my attempts to secure/customise the NT Shell (Desktop, Start Menu...

What about if youre running terminal services off a win2k server within an NT4 domain? (no AD Users and Computers) MW

Remote clients trying to log on to my Exchange 5.5 SP3 Server are getting their mailboxes displayed with no new content since Wednesday 21st May. On that day, I attempted to recreate the Exchange service account. After verifying its settings, group membership and user rights, I re-verified its...

You were right. Thanks for your help Fritz4000. I went and set up a separate service account for each Exchange server and now each server registers its own set of mailboxes. Just as a footnote, failure to set up a unique Exchange Service Account for a server (or if you were to try to 'trick'...
