RE: Files keep disappearing from the winnt dir

I am the admin. I can login ok, but I can't run the explorer. I have to do a start > run > explorer. I've placed it in a different area. Remember, only the "files" are missing in the winnt dir. There is not much in there that you need to login.

I have to ask, how is it that you are able to log in if all of the files in the winnt directory are gone?  Are you sure that you can't see them but they are there?

No, actually, I haven't. that server is not involved in any email clients or not used by anyone. It is a backup server tied to one other server. That's it.

Just for the halibut, have you run a full AV scan on this server?

I am having a sort of weird problem on one of my NT4.0 SP6a servers. A while back I had to clean the server - chkdsk - seemed to work ok.

 

After that this problem keeps occurring. One day I noticed that the files - not any directories just files -  in the c:\winnt directory were gone except for two of them. I copied the files from another identical NT box in to this server's winnt directory. A day or so later they were gone again. I copied them into the dir again, a day later they are gone. I KNOW that the server does not have any viruses. I can only figure that the server may have a corrupt file system and needs to be cleaned once more.

 

Any suggestions?

Subject: Out of Buffer Error

Hi there guys,

        I am new to the list and have been lurking the last few days, I must say there is a lot of knowledge that flows through here, I would like to try and tap some.

I am running an NT4 server with SP6a, using a product called Wingate('cos I don't know how to use Proxy) as a web sharing proxy box.  Occasionally I get this Out of Buffers errror.  I have searched the wingate kb and MS but am struggling to find a solution.  Any ideas?

Regards,

Jason Dwyer
