Active Directory
Hey guys, following question we're using an active directory single controller. Now I want to add a second domain and here comes the trouble. I didnt install the first one but still. Where using linux dns server. So i cant do shit in dns from the first computer. When i'm working with the second it cannot find the first domain controller. Any advice appreciated. Some documentation about active directory and deployment would be nice to. Met vriendelijke groet, M. Eindhoven NT System Administrator Bevelander Internet Services B.V.

RE: End of My Rope with WINS
I've got to agree with this suggestion. I had a worldwide network with about 18 WINS servers set up similar to the way you do and never had any real problem with the WINS. The differences were 1) I used a hub and spoke, but you can't do that with two sites, 2) Based on a support article I only did timed pulls, no push (push was configured with a number so high it would never trigger) and 3) some sites were too small to justify their own WINS and pointed to one across the WAN without a problem. I did have browsing problems occasionaly that were always some rogue machine. hth -Original Message- From: Brandon Bristow [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, August 17, 2001 2:53 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: End of My Rope with WINS Well, you said you had no problem with netbios name resolution. So I would have to say that your problem isn't with your WINS implementation but perhaps with your Browsers. To browse the network neighborhood the machine has to be able to determine and query a machine that contains the browse list, be that the Domain Master Browser or the backup browser for the segment. This article might be of some assistance. You should be able to look through the Wins Database to determine which computers are currently acting as your browsers. http://support.microsoft.com Hope that helps. -Original Message- From: Scott Erwin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, August 17, 2001 11:47 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: End of My Rope with WINS DHCP.

I have two buildings, each on their own network connected by fiber. Pinging with ip address and netbios name between networks is no problem and searching for computers using netbios names works too. There is a WINS server on each network configured as push and pull partners of each other. Each WINS server is its own Primary and Secondary. Browsing with Network Neighborhood is intermittent. Sometimes Network A sees Network B, sometimes it can't (and vice versa). I've never had simultaneous browsing. I have never gotten a WINS error in the event viewer. I do get successful push/pull entries. All clients and other domain controllers are set up using their local wins server as primary and the remote wins server as secondary. Is this OK?

RE: DHCP...
There is some truth to that, however, I think it is only valid if you have implemented Active Directory. If you are using DHCP on a member server in an NT4 domain, anyone with Admin rights can install it. However, if you are using AD, you DO have to authorize the DHCP server, But that is ONLY if the DHCP server is running AD-integrated.

IIS question
Hello! We are running IIS 4.0 on an NT 4.0 SP6a server. Our web person has a strange problem from time to time. She edits her pages with Front Page 2000. Sometimes when she edits a page, the changes do not show up on the site. Even if you refresh your screen. Usually, everything works fine. The problem does not seem to affect any particular page. It can happen to one one day, and a totally different page the next time. It has been a while since the problem occurred last. The way I have gotten the pages to display correctly is by rebooting the server. This seems a little extreme for some simple editing. Am I missing something? Are these wrong pages being pulled from a cache some where??? Eric http://www.sunbelt-software.com/ntsysadmin_list_charter.htm

Re: IIS as an ISP
I assume you want to give your customers the ability to password protect directories without your intervention. If so, then look at iisPROTECT (www.iisprotect.com) I've been testing it for some time and found it to be very stable and fast. I am planning on implementing the product by the end of next month. I do have the following gripes about it though: 1. Some information about each site that is protected is stored in the registry. In an environment where you are load balanced, it is a pain to have to export the reg keys to all your servers. I would prefer to have this information in an XML doc to allow for easy replication. 2. Each website has its own database, which makes it impossible to have a single sql database for all your customers. I asked the company to implement a method of using stored procedures with parameters, so a single database could be used. They said they added it to their list for a future enhancement. Hope this helps. ~Seth Michael Brubaker writes: Does anyone know of a good user management tool for hosting many different web sites on IIS.

RE: W2K DC requirements
Generally speaking folks tend to draw the line at PII 400 with 256 MB of RAM or thereabouts for DCs. I think that you don't need a gig of RAM, unless you have a huge org. Your first DC will have all of the FSMO roles so it really should be a bit beefier, unless you want to shuffle things around. Hardware RAID is a MUST for DCs, depending on the size of your org your RAID config would vary. AD is your chance to combine domains, not split, unless you have a REALLY compelling reason, you should use OUs to divide stuff.

RE: Windows 2000 roaming profiles / folder redirection
No there isn't a way to do it using the Tools that Microsoft provides in Win2k. However You can use User Manager for Domains to select all your users and create there profile paths just like you did in NT4. UMD works in both a mixed and native mode domain. You can also use it to setup there home directories but then it sets up the permissions like it did in NT 4 so the Admin doesn't have access to the Home Directory. I really wish MS had added this ability in AD Users and Computers. Also if you want to have access to the Profiles folder after it is created your DC's need to be running SP2 and you need to set a GPO that gives Admin Access to the Roaming Profiles folder.

We have a Win2K domain controller with numerically generated class accounts, CS100s01, CS100s02, . In Windows NT you could highlight all these users, go to the properties on the menu and set the profile information for all of them at once, for instance setting the roaming profile info to \\servername\profile_directory\%USERNAME%. When the user logs in the profile that is loaded would be their own because the account name is substituted for the %USERNAME%. Does anyone know if there is a way to do this in Windows 2000 with AD? Somehow there does not seem to be an option to set multiple user properties at once. Is there a resouce kit command line utility that would do this? I have also tried using folder redirection instead of roaming profiles and have found them to be very tricky. There are lots of problems unless the folder permissions are set in a specific way. Since our class accounts use common read only profiles (so they can't mess them up) we would prefer to stay with roaming profiles. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Manage Active Direcotry from W2K Pro?
I have been searching for a while now for information on how to install the Active Directory snap-ins on a Windows 2000 Professional box. Every time I want to add a user or change something in the directory I end up strating Timbuktu Pro and working from the server itself. Isn't there a decent way to do this without 3rd party software? What replaces usrmgr.exe on a w2kpro box? Thanks, Jonathan http://www.sunbelt-software.com/ntsysadmin_list_charter.htm

For example in NT our current internal domain name is widgets and our external website is widgets.com. When we upgrade to Win2k what are the ramifications of keeping our internal 2000 domain widgets.com and our external website widgets.com. Should we change our internal domain to widgetscorp.com when we upgrade to win2k, and if we don't what happens. http://www.sunbelt-software.com/ntsysadmin_list_charter.htm

RE: OWA/SSL/ACE/WLBS
In my copious spare time I need to set the same thing up. Since you don't specify, I'm guessing that you're using a second network for the load balance stuff. Make sure that there isn't a default gateway set for the nics on that network. There should only be one default gateway on any machine. I'll bet dollars to donuts this is the issue. You might want to go as far as making the back network a /30 network (2 hosts). That might also help. One last ditch effort (and I strongly suggest you don't put this setup in production) is to create a static route for the ACE server on each server, to the appropriate network interface. In general, host routes take precedence over network routes, so it will always use that route. -- Roger D.

Re: NT separator page question
Sounds interesting. But since the separator page is defined on the print server, if you captured the %computername% variable wouldn't it be the computername of the server and not the computername of the computer sending the job? -John At 03:08 PM 8/21/2001 -0700, you wrote: ..
