Subject: Petition to prevent war

Dear friends,
You may already have received this, but in case not.  This is being
widely 
circulated on many lists today.  I urge you to at least go to the site
and 
sign the petition and send it to everyone you know, even those outside
the 
US, ASAP.  Very important to do it as soon as 
possible.  Click on the link below and you will get to the petition.

- mitko

Please sign The Petition at
http://home.uchicago.edu/~dhpicker/petition
which appeals to world leaders to be level-headed and, wherever
possible,
peaceful in their response to the recent attack against the United
States.
PLEASE FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE, AS QUICKLY AS
POSSIBLE. The signatures logged by the website above will be forwarded
to
leaders around the world. It is imperative that we act quickly to
prevent
war!!!

The Petition
What follows is a petition that will be forwarded to President Bush, and
other world leaders, urging them to avoid war as a response to the
terrorist
attacks against the World Trade Center and the Pentagon this week.
Please
read it, sign below, and forward the link to as many people as possible,
as
quickly as possible. We must circulate this quickly if it is to have any
effect at all, as the Congress of The United States has already passed a
resolution supporting any military action President Bush deems
appropriate.


We, the undersigned, citizens and residents of the United States of
America
and of countries around the world, appeal to the President of The United
States, George W. Bush; to the NATO Secretary General, Lord Robertson;
to
the President of the European Union, Romano Prodi; and to all leaders
internationally to use moderation and restraint in responding to the
recent
terrorist attacks against the United States.

We implore the powers that be to use, wherever possible, international
judicial institutions and international human rights law to bring to
justice
those responsible for the attacks, rather than the instruments of war,
violence or destruction. Furthermore, we assert that the government of a
nation must be presumed separate and distinct from any terrorist group
that
may operate within its borders, and therefore cannot be held unduly
accountable for the latter's crimes.

It follows that the government of a particular nation should not be
condemned for the recent attack without compelling evidence of its
cooperation and complicity with those individuals who actually committed
the
crimes in question. Innocent civilians living within any nation that may
be
found responsible, in part or in full, for the crimes recently
perpetrated
against the United States, must not bear any responsibility for the
actions
of their government, and must therefore be guaranteed safety and
immunity
from any military or judicial action taken against the state in which
they
reside.

Lastly and most emphatically, we demand that there be no recourse to
nuclear, chemical or biological weapons, or any weapons of
indiscriminate
destruction, and feel that it is our inalienable human right to live in
a
world free of such arms.

Harry Corsover

 This is a real can of super ugly worms and you need a total
 security policy for your site not just blocking executables via email.

Tell me about it. I have 13 servers here, 3 of them *nix. All of them
survived except one which got hit, because it had a trust relationship with
a web designer's home machine and he got hit.

Keeping all these machines up to date is a royal pain in the ass - since
Microsloth haven't seen fit to include the hotfixes in their 'windowsupdate'
site for NT4 yet.

I remember seeing a URL somewhere of a useful gadget for telling you which
servers had which patches, and which servers needed which patches but now
that I need it, I'll be damned if I can find it... :(

Spam to non-existent e-mail address

2001-09-19 Thread Steve Jacobson

I administer the e-mail server (Exchange 5.5) for my small consulting
company (DJI). I am getting lots of spam mail addressed to non-existent
e-mail
addresses. These addresses have never been used. Some seem to be valid
addresses ([EMAIL PROTECTED], or [EMAIL PROTECTED]), while others seem to be made up
from some random character generator ([EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]).

I get about 30-50 of these messages per day. Naturally, they are bounced by
the server, and I route them to the Administrator mailbox. Some of the
bounce messages back to the sender also get bounced (mainly due to invalid
addresses).

Do any of you folks have this problem, and if so, what do you do about it?

It's called St Bernard Software UpDate Expert. There is an agent that runs
on servers as well as workstations. The agent will query Db for updates and
actually download them for you. If you like the centralized approach, you
can run a console and tell what servers/ workstations get what updates. It's
very cool.

Please let me know if you have any more questions or would like pricing.

Hi All,

Looks like Bill's mail server has a big problem
and continues to send this message about Adding 
FTP locations. This address is banned from the
list, and the topic is killed so any more email
from Bill is not originating from the NTSYSADMIN
list. Perhaps some one knows him and can call him

They need to get their sick mail server fixed.

RE: net time

2001-09-19 Thread Russ Braaten

Actually, while working on this very topic today, I found out some
interesting issues.  My production domain is still NT4.  I have my PDC and
BDCs running timeserve and retrieving their time from a corporate
timeserver across our WAN (they have the actual internet connection).  and
my users, win95, 98, and a few win2k, run a login script that does a net
time \\xxx.xx.xxx.xxx /set using the ip address of our PDC.  While testing
a WIN2k server and workstation on a test domain, I noticed that the
workstation was syncing from the DC in my test domain, but the time was
way off from my production machine, so I started looking for how to sync
the time from the corporate time server across the WAN.  This turned out
to be a fairly simple process, once I found the instructions.  Run from a
command line c:\net time /setsntp:xxx.xx.xxx. then cycle your
windows time service.  It actually writes to the registry where to look
for time syncing. This worked from both the server and pro box.  I pointed
them both to the corp box, but could have left the pro box syncing to the
DC and the DC syncing to the corp box, to minimize WAN traffic, which is
probably best practice, once rolled out.

Just thought someone out there might want to know,

Russ Braaten, MCSE, MCP+I


 Actually, that is what I have always done.  One of my associates pointed out
 the effect of just using net time /set and I couldn't answer why we got
 the different results.  Just goes to show that browsing and NetBIOS is far
 from gone in W2K.

 I have an interesting situation.

 Environment:  NT4 Domain, W2K Pro workstation.  PDC (NT4, SP6) set to be the
 time server via NET TIME /SETSNTP:PDC at the workstation (verified via
 /querysntp)
 The PDC is running Windows Time Service (w32time) and is set as an NTP
 server.  It gets its time from a proxy server (W2KS) which has it's time
 updated from NIST.

 Anyway, at the W2KP station, if you type net time /set it points to the
 proxy server.  Why?  If you enter net time /domain /set it points to the
 PDC as well as when you do the /querysntp.

 All I can think of is that the net time /set command sees the ntp service
 on the proxy server and reports connection to it.  Why is it not going to
 the PDC like it is told to do?

Outlook 2000, SR-1 installed via AD .msi using custom .mst file created by
me with the Office Reskit (download from MS).  (Exchange 5.5 sp3, but
probably irrelevant here).

I recently had to recreate my roaming user profile and now no longer can add
the from and bcc fields to my e-mail messages.  Tried both with Word as
e-mail editor and not.  If I open an old message and go to the view menu,
I can see the from field and bcc field options, but they are grayed out and
unavailable.  If I'm in a new message they are not even on the list (don't
know if they should be there).  Am I just looking in the wrong spot to add
this?
I'm domain admin and local admin on my Win2k pro sp2 pc.  I need the from
field so I can reply back to someone as our postmaster account instead of me
(I know I can get around this another way in the meantime, but I previously
had the from field).  Other users on our network also appear to have the
same problem and some will likely need bcc.  Anyone know a reg entry or Q
article that might help?  I can't seem to find anything on the MS site or
Google, but I'm probably looking for the wrong thing.

Spontaneous Lockouts (Event 644)

2001-09-19 Thread JSlattery

Having a user that keeps being locked out without attempting 
to log in multiple times.

NT4 SP 6a
2000 Workstation on the desktop
Using Exchange 5.5 and Outlook 2k for mail. (He first notices the
lockout when he tries to open email and get's a login prompt.)

Anyone ever run into this one before??

RE: net time

2001-09-19 Thread Miley, Dan

aren't there some timers to indicate how often to resynch the time.  Does
anyone know where these are.  

I know 2k does a lot more activity to make sure the time is set.  That can
mean more overhead on WAN links.

Shouldn't you use the name instead of the IP, in case you decide to move the
pdc?

timeserver across our WAN (they have the actual internet connection).  and
my users, win95, 98, and a few win2k, run a login script that does a net
time \\xxx.xx.xxx.xxx /set using the ip address of our PDC.  While testing
a WIN2k server and workstation on a test domain, I noticed that the
workstation was syncing from the DC in my test domain, but the time was
way off from my production machine, so I started looking for how to sync
the time from the corporate time server across the WAN.  This turned out
to be a fairly simple process, once I found the instructions.  Run from a
command line c:\net time /setsntp:xxx.xx.xxx. then cycle your
windows time service.  It actually writes to the registry where to look
for time syncing. This worked from both the server and pro box.  I pointed
them both to the corp box, but could have left the pro box syncing to the
DC and the DC syncing to the corp box, to minimize WAN traffic, which is
probably best practice, once rolled out.

 I have an interesting situation.

 Environment:  NT4 Domain, W2K Pro workstation.  PDC (NT4, SP6) set to be
the
 time server via NET TIME /SETSNTP:PDC at the workstation (verified via
 /querysntp)
 The PDC is running Windows Time Service (w32time) and is set as an NTP
 server.  It gets its time from a proxy server (W2KS) which has it's time
 updated from NIST.

 Anyway, at the W2KP station, if you type net time /set it points to the
 proxy server.  Why?  If you enter net time /domain /set it points to the
 PDC as well as when you do the /querysntp.

 All I can think of is that the net time /set command sees the ntp
service
 on the proxy server and reports connection to it.  Why is it not going to
 the PDC like it is told to do?

Thanks Peter--this solved the problem.  It didn't work with Word as the

Interestingly, they are both now available on my view menu to turn on and

 time server via NET TIME /SETSNTP:PDC at the workstation (verified via
 /querysntp)
 The PDC is running Windows Time Service (w32time) and is set as an NTP
 server.  It gets its time from a proxy server (W2KS) which has it's time
 updated from NIST.

 Anyway, at the W2KP station, if you type net time /set it points to the
 proxy server.  Why?  If you enter net time /domain /set it points to the
 PDC as well as when you do the /querysntp.

 All I can think of is that the net time /set command sees the ntp
service
 on the proxy server and reports connection to it.  Why is it not going to
 the PDC like it is told to do?

FW: RE: Mirror Set Query

2001-09-19 Thread PITNEY,LDENISE (A-Sonoma,ex1)

I'm currently studying for the 70-215 and the documentation says first break
the mirror, upgrade each disk to
dynamic and then re-engage the mirror. Try to MCSE boxed set from Microsoft
--all of this information is listed. I think the set is ...$200, but well
worth it.

This little feature and a few others, cost me an all-nighter, Sunday noon
to Monday 8 am, at a customer.
Single server, 25 user network, ended up blowing it away and loading fresh,
after a pizza and a Guinness about 9 pm. g Will now always migrate to
another server, which I had done previously and since.
PS. this Basic versus Dynamic disk business didn't appear in any

  I posted this elsewhere with no replies - maybe someone knows? Thanks
 
  A user wrote (Windows 2000 /May 2001 pg. 21) that If your Windows NT
  Server 4.0 systems have mirrored drives, be aware of the following
  upgrade gotcha. We have several servers running NT Server 4.0, and we
  want to upgrade them to Windows 2000 Server. However, each server has at
  least one pair of mirrored drives, and Win2K Server doesn't support this
  configuration. To maintain our infrastructure, we must migrate to Win2K
  Advanced Server at several times the price of the migration to Win2K
  Server.
  I can not find any mention of this at MS site or product doc. We want to
  set up our W2K Servers with 2 mirror sets (i.e. 4 drives total one set
  using 2 drives for C and one set using 2 drives for d. Can this be
  done with W2K Server or do we need advanced server? Thanks!

RE: WARNING: Hacker Alert

2001-09-19 Thread higginspi

This was probably a really stupid thing that I did.  I
am new to all of this stuff, but I try to be very
cautious.
The site that had been infected had been posted for
several hours yesterday and no one had commented on
it.  I went to the site to see what a hacked page
looked like (thinking it was along the lines of a
defaced webpage like the Hacked by Chinese pages.  I
was never prompted to download a file, and I have the
highest security for internet options (everything is
disabled or prompt).  I have Internet Explorer 5.01
SP2, which is not effected by the MIME exploit, W2K
SP2 patched as much as possible.  According to NAV,
you have to be vulnerable to the MIME exploit when
visiting the infected site to have the .eml file run.

I downloaded the new virus definitions this morning
that were not available last yesterday and scanned the
computer.  In the Temporary Internet Folders\Content
IE5\64DIY8YA\ folder there is a file called
216.39.175[1].htm that was detected by NAV as infected
with Nimra.  I know this is really ignorant question,
but does that mean I am infected by Nimra and that I
am vulnerable to the stuff it can do?  It was the only
file detected as infected and NAV cleaned it.  Again,
I am new to this stuff and have never had to deal with
having an infected file on my computers before, so I
do not know if I am safe.

I checked my guest account, and it is still disabled
and has only guest properties.  My system.ini file has
not been modified recently, neither has riched20.dll
files.  I cannot find a load.exe.

Norton says to repair html files, then reboot, and
then do another scan until no files are found and to
delete the text added to system.ini.  In this
situation, where I have an htm file in the temporary
internet folder, does this stuff apply?  Why is the
file in the temporary internet folder marked detected
as infected anyway?  

TIA,
Higgins

RE: WARNING: Hacker Alert

2001-09-19 Thread Mathews, James E.

I think someone else asked this question. I went to the site you had listed
yesterday and apparently download the file to my temp directory.  I did not
execute did a scan on my computer today and it showed up.  I deleted the
file rebooted ran scan again and nothing came up.  I am assuming my computer
is not infected. Also updated an ran scans on the IIS server and e-mail and
nothing came up.  I might be very wrong but if it was not executed nothing
to worry about so even if he did post the site if you do not execute the
file your ok, right?

In the proxy configuration you can disable web publishing.  I hope this
helps.

 I find it ironic that I had to use Explorer Search to find Searchit.

Yes, there is a glitch in the installer program we used. It works fine on
NT4.0 but on Win2k it appends the setup path to the exe's install path. It's
fairly easy to set the searchit.exe path to c:\winnt\system32\searchit.exe
and it will be fine.
We'll get that fixed as soon as we get the fix for the installer.

I know with NT 4.0 and Terminal servers you would use the shutdown.exe

I have not been able to find this utility on the Windows 2000 Resource Kit.
Doe anybody know what I can use for scheduled reboots of Windows 2000

Title: RE: DHCP questions





Yes - but if you do as you state in your original question and use IP addresses OUTSIDE of either scope a reservation would not be required because those servers would not know of that IP address to dynamically assign it to anyone anyway.

RE: DHCP questions

2001-09-19 Thread Clayton

Let's take a look at a possible scenario, just to make sure that I
understand you.

Server A has a range of say 10.0.0.1 - 10.0.0.99
Server B has a range of 10.0.0.100 - 10.0.0.199
You have a client that always uses 10.0.0.200

Since neither server has .200 in its range of addresses, it will never
be able to assign it, and therefore you do not require a reservation,
but only a static IP Address on the specific client. If it is a DHCP
client, then you must add the address you want it to have to either of
your scopes, and then create a reservation for that address. What you
must avoid is a scenario where the same IP Address exists in both
scopes. If both DHCP servers contain identical IP addresses within their
scopes you need to redefine the scopes as it will be possible for IP
conflicts to occur in that scenario (IE the same address could be handed
out twice, once by each server).

Hope that helps...

  Yes, there is a glitch in the installer program we used. It 
  works fine on
  NT4.0 but on Win2k it appends the setup path to the exe's 
  install path. It's
  fairly easy to set the searchit.exe path to 
  c:\winnt\system32\searchit.exe
  and it will be fine.
  We'll get that fixed as soon as we get the fix for the installer.

  It also doesn't work. I downloaded and installed it, and
 it didn't even
  create an executable.

 That's not true actually.

 1. It is FREE a production copy. The link is right on the
 home page to the
 right of the dancing tools.
 2. The search.exe file is in the c:\winnt\system32 directory.

 I didn't think it would be difficult to give something

RE: W2K Editing Group Policy

2001-09-19 Thread Clayton

Alex, a lot of problems I have had in 2000 stem from AD and DNS
communications. How are you trying to access the Group Policy? Are you
getting errors in your DNS Event Log? Have you installed the admin.msi
pack located on the Server CD on your client? If so, can the workstation
this has been installed on be used to administer the domain? Can both
servers ping each other by computer name? Let me know...

 Hi Guys
 
 Pretty new to list, so apols if this one has come up before.
 
 Seem to be having problems accessing my domain group policy from
either of
 my W2k SP2 servers.
 
 Found Article ID: Q257435 on technet (below), and although this
exactly
 describes my problem, unfortunately, the suggestion is no good for me,
as
 file  printer sharing is configured. I have removed it and
re-installed
 it on both boxes also, just in case, but still no joy.
 
 Anyone come across this before ??

Subject: RE: DHCP questions


Let's take a look at a possible scenario, just to make sure that I
understand you.

Server A has a range of say 10.0.0.1 - 10.0.0.99
Server B has a range of 10.0.0.100 - 10.0.0.199
You have a client that always uses 10.0.0.200

Since neither server has .200 in its range of addresses, it will never
be able to assign it, and therefore you do not require a reservation,
but only a static IP Address on the specific client. If it is a DHCP
client, then you must add the address you want it to have to either of
your scopes, and then create a reservation for that address. What you
must avoid is a scenario where the same IP Address exists in both
scopes. If both DHCP servers contain identical IP addresses within their
scopes you need to redefine the scopes as it will be possible for IP
conflicts to occur in that scenario (IE the same address could be handed
out twice, once by each server).

Hope that helps...

Why would you add a reservation for an IP outside of either of the
scopes? If the address is outside of the scope, it will never be
assigned by either of the servers.

 I find it ironic that I had to use Explorer 
  Search to find Searchit. Yes, there is a glitch in the installer program we used. It 
works fine on  
   NT4.0 but on Win2k it appends the setup path to the exe's 
install path. It's   fairly easy to set the searchit.exe path to   c:\winnt\system32\searchit.exe  
   and it will be fine.   We'll get that 
  fixed as soon as we get the fix for the installer. John Cesta
