Re: Setting up notifications for Dell Server failures
I still use Dell IT Assistant to email me the alerts from OpenManage. Seems to work pretty well 2008/9/29 Jim Majorowicz [EMAIL PROTECTED] I use OpenManage Server Administrator (5.4.0 installed) all the time. I don't think I've ever gotten it to email me notifications though. I can get it to manually send one, but it seems to not do them automatically. -Original Message- From: Terry Dickson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 29, 2008 11:15 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Setting up notifications for Dell Server failures Do you have the Openmanage software installed? I am pretty sure it can automatically do this for you if you configure it correctly? -Original Message- From: Jim Majorowicz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 29, 2008 1:04 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Setting up notifications for Dell Server failures We have a customer with a Dell PowerEdge 1800 tower that has had a bad habit of failing a particular SCSI drive. This server has managed to kill 4 drives in slot 0:1 and one drive each in 0:2 and 0:4. Dell has been great with the warranty replacements, even went as far as to replace the entire subsystem, but it didn't solve the problem. I got Dell to agree to sell me an additional drive at cost to add to the array as a spare. (One of the failures included two drives over the weekend, prompting a real emergency when the server went offline.) What I need help with is after I install and configure the array spare how to notify myself or my office that a drive has failed? Always before, we've relied on the customer to notify us when buzzer alarm noise sounds. It is my understanding that after the spare is installed, the buzzer won't sound until a second drive fails and there is no spare to take up the slack. I need to be able to know when a drive fails so I can start the warranty process with Dell hopefully before a second drive fails.

AD authentication drops
Anyone else have this problem? W2k3 server environment, XP Pro desktops all part of single domain AD setup. Logon script maps access to shared folders for all employees. One mapped drive for shared workspace, one for private. Frequently something happens and the mapped drives dissapear. If you try to attach by start;run and use the unc to the folder it will typically show one or none of the 12 or so folders that are there. logging off and back on almost always fixes it back. We have about 120 desktops in 4 different offices. This problem crops up almost daily and shows up in every location. We also run Exchange, so they are maintaining a connection there as well, and we have seen outlook drop authentication too, so that they are asked for a username/password midstream, which almost always results in a support call, because it needs the domain\ info before the username when it does that. The outlook authentication happens way less frequently than the problem with mapped drives. any ideas? Been fighting this for a while. Replaced storage vault with new hardward and had hoped that this problem would go away with that, but it had no affect.

Re: blacklisted
First check to see if your server is setup to open relay http://www.checkor.com/ If your email server is not setup to open relay then check your firewall or router logs to see what internal IP address is sending out on port 25. Your firewall should be locked down to ONLY allow outbound port 25 traffic from your email server or SMTP gateway. Additionally setup your firewall (if it has the function) to send you an email alert any time an internal computer attempts to send out email on port 25. That way you know the moment a computer is compromised. Matt On Tue, Sep 30, 2008 at 10:51 AM, Holstrom, Don [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: PSBL says they have received spamtrap mail from our IP address.

Sounds like offline files issue across the board.

This server has managed to kill 4 drives in slot 0:1 and one drive each in 0:2 and 0:4. Dell has been great with the warranty replacements, even went as far as to replace the entire subsystem, but it didn't solve the problem. I got Dell to agree to sell me an additional drive at cost to add to the array as a spare. (One of the failures included two drives over the weekend, prompting a real emergency when the server went offline.) What I need help with is after I install and configure the array spare how to notify myself or my office that a drive has failed? Always before, we've relied on the customer to notify us when buzzer alarm noise sounds. It is my understanding that after the spare is installed, the buzzer won't sound until a second drive fails and there is no spare to take up the slack. I need to be able to know when a drive fails so I can start the warranty process with Dell hopefully before a second drive fails.

Terminal Server printing question
Good afternoon, I'm trying to track down an odd printing issue involving Terminal Server on a Windows 2003 server. I am the administrator on the domain, and we're using an older scheduling program called Xytech. If I login to TS, and login to Xytech with a user account, it prints instantly. If I login to TS as a user, and then login to Xytech as a user, it takes 60-120 seconds to print. To rule out permissions, I added the user account to all the same groups I am in. Any idea what could cause this, or how I can remedy the situation?

RE: Terminal Server printing question
Problem with users being able to load print drivers. I believe by default the User rights on Win2k3 don't allow anyone but administrators to load printer drivers. Also You can use filemon/regmon and procmon from Sysinternals, to take a look at what is going on application wise in that particular function as compared to when you are logged on as admin, to determine the root cause of the slow down.

I am the administrator on the domain, and we're using an older scheduling program called Xytech. If I login to TS, and login to Xytech with a user account, it prints instantly. If I login to TS as a user, and then login to Xytech as a user, it takes 60-120 seconds to print. To rule out permissions, I added the user account to all the same groups I am in.

Re: External RAID HDD Enclosure Recomendations
I joined the List the first time back in '96 or '97 I think. So far back I don't remember clearly. And even then ME2 and Michael Smith were here. As well as several others that I came to rely on for accurate information as I was in my first few years of IT work. I was an OF when I first came to IT back in '95. I have learned much from the folks here and hope I have shed a little light on a few things for others also. Been busy enough lately now that I am self-employed(1) that I don't make it to the list every day; sometimes only once a week. I too, do not delete anything. I keep it all in a Google mailbox so that I can search on things. The ones I use the most I star and then i have a couple of tags get applied on the message entry to the mailbox to make the searching faster.(2) I have very much enjoyed my time here as well as learned many things. And had some humor sent my way. Thanks to all for a great community. Len Hammond (1) my corporate position was dropped almost 2 years ago and in southeast Michigan the IT departments in corporations are no longer growing. Couldn't find a job so I started a company and decided to go it alone. grin Kinda scary! but fun and emotionally rewarding even if the money hasn't started rolling in yet. (2) At some point I would like to migrate all of my NT List messages to a new GMail box so I can have the name on this mailbox to use for my general business mailbox. I may have to ask for advice on that change. On Tue, Sep 30, 2008 at 12:21 PM, Jon Harris [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Not from me too tired and too old.

RE: SortaOT: Mailbox Sizes and AutoArchive
I'd say... LOL Most organizations do not allow archiving in the traditional sense... to a PST (either stored on the user's PC, or a network share). Many are moving forward with enterprise archiving products that will archive for you. For the rest of us, the norm seems to be mailbox limits (for example 500MB) and force the users to do their own cleaning when they hit these limits. You should definitely have mailbox limits in place though, as storage is not infinite. HTH From: Christopher J.

You betcha. I run this on every site unless I absolutely need js functionality on a particular site in order to retrieve information. Its a shame IE doesn't have an equivalent. NoScript is exceptional for what it does.

Re: Windirstat
Try JDiskReport*: http://www.jgoodies.com * Requires Java, but its an elegant tool. On Tue, Sep 30, 2008 at 4:25 PM, Kevin Lundy [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Any WinDirStat users out there?

Re: Windirstat
The lack of reporting is probably my biggest complaint with WinDirStat, although you get what you pay for, right? There should be an option to e-mail a report, but it's just a crude print out of each folder in the tree highlighted and it's corresponding size. - Sean On Tue, Sep 30, 2008 at 12:25 PM, Kevin Lundy [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Any WinDirStat users out there?

RE: shared calendars
Instead of apologizing, why not subscribe to the Exchange list on this same listserv and ask the question there? When you get there, you might try writing a better question, in particular, what kind of limitation you're experiencing or asking about. I don't know that OL 2007 has any limitations that are more restrictive than any earlier version of OL.

RE: External RAID HDD Enclosure Recomendations
I wouldn't trust Google or anything 'in the cloud' to maintain my valuable database of saved list messages. Just MHO. Stuff happens. If you don't have a local copy and a backup of your local copy it could all be toast. Carl From: Len Hammond [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 30, 2008 3:55 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: External RAID HDD Enclosure Recomendations I joined the List the first time back in '96 or '97 I think. So far back I don't remember clearly. And even then ME2 and Michael Smith were here. As well as several others that I came to rely on for accurate information as I was in my first few years of IT work. I was an OF when I first came to IT back in '95. I have learned much from the folks here and hope I have shed a little light on a few things for others also. Been busy enough lately now that I am self-employed(1) that I don't make it to the list every day; sometimes only once a week. I too, do not delete anything. I keep it all in a Google mailbox so that I can search on things. The ones I use the most I star and then i have a couple of tags get applied on the message entry to the mailbox to make the searching faster.(2) I have very much enjoyed my time here as well as learned many things. And had some humor sent my way. Thanks to all for a great community. Len Hammond (1) my corporate position was dropped almost 2 years ago and in southeast Michigan the IT departments in corporations are no longer growing. Couldn't find a job so I started a company and decided to go it alone. grin Kinda scary! but fun and emotionally rewarding even if the money hasn't started rolling in yet. (2) At some point I would like to migrate all of my NT List messages to a new GMail box so I can have the name on this mailbox to use for my general business mailbox. I may have to ask for advice on that change. On Tue, Sep 30, 2008 at 12:21 PM, Jon Harris [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Not from me too tired and too old.

Actionpack Licensing question
Wondering if someone can answer this question for me. We have a license for 64bit Windows Server 2003, do we have downgrade rights to 32bit using the same key?
