Good morning,

I am still working to rid myself of a couple of NT servers in our  
environment, and I'm running into an odd issue.  I need to move data  
from the NT server to my 2003 server.  From 2003, I am mapping a drive  
to a share on the NT box.  Some of the directories are displayed  
blue.  I think this has to do with them being compressed by NT.  Is  
this correct?  When I browse the blue directories from 2003, they  
appear empty.  If I check properties, I see file counts and size  
summaries.  If I look at the directory from NT, I see the files.


How can I get these files to display properly on my 2003 server?

Thanks,

Do you have enough disk space to untick the compress attribute?

Sorry.  I forgot that bit.  I tried to copy the data, and it is still  
invisible on 2003, but returns used space when I check properties on  
the folder.

Re: Odd directory issue

I believe so.  Will it dynamically uncompress the data on the NT  
disk?  If so, that's an easy enough fix to allow me to properly move  
the data.

Re: SBS 2003 Setup Hanging - any thoughts on this one?

2008-12-16 Thread Jesse Rink

Just out of curiosity, if you try to download another manufacturers drivers and 
put them to disk, will SBS see those properly during the F6 process?  I'm just 
wondering if the thing you downloaded was corrupted or something.

USB floppies can also be an issue.  I've done this via USB floppy drives before 
(adding drivers via F6), but I've read that some servers have issue with the 
make/model of the USB floppy itself... Some work, some don't. ?

Subject: SBS 2003 Setup Hanging - any thoughts on this one?

Highpoint Technologies Tech Support doesn't open for another 3 hours -
so i'm hoping someone on this list might have a suggestion on how to
resolve a problem.

I installed a RocketRAID 1640 controller into a Dell PowerEdge 840
Server to replace the RAID controller that shipped with the PowerEdge.
The RocketRAID is now the only RAID controller in the server.

I'm attempting to install Windows Small Business Server 2003.

The RocketRAID built my RAID5 array successfully, I press F6 during the
OS boot install process and I select the Windows 2003 Driver that I
downloaded this morning from Highpoint (v 2.06s). The Windows OS
recognizes the driver, allows me to format the array into the partition
scheme I want, then the OS copies a few more files from the OS install
CD before prompting me with the message:

Insert the disk labeled:
RocketRAID 154x/1640 Controller Driver Diskette into drive a:
Press ENTER when ready.

F3=Quit ENTER=Continue

I already have the driver diskette loaded into the floppy drive, and
pressing ENTER does nothing. The disk drive light does not even light
up. Pressing F3 does allow the OS install the quite but I can not get
Windows setup to continue.

I flashed the BIOS on the RAID controller card when I realized it was
older, and so after flashing the BIOS of the RocketRAID to version 2.06s
and retrying the OS install, I'm halted at the same point.

Why is the OS prompting for the drivers a second time and preventing the
successful installation?

I have reformatted the floppy drive used to store the drivers for the OS
install, I have re-dowloaded the setup files thinking maybe the file was
corrupted - no change.

I'm at a loss for why this is hanging.

Thoughts?

Blackberry Storm Upgrade

2008-12-16 Thread Jim Majorowicz

I've got a client that uses the Blackberry Professional Software 4.1.4.2 on
a Windows 2003 SBS to connect his 8830 to the Exchange.  He is the only user
on the server.  He's getting ready to upgrade to a Storm.  Depending on what
I read, where, it will work with the latest firmware on the Storm, but he'll
lose HTML email, something I don't think he knew he was getting.

 

Normally, when a client gets a new Blackberry and wants to get it setup on
his server, I just delete him as a user and re-add him then provision the
Blackberry as if it's the first time the user been connected.  I'm wondering
if that's the best course of action here or if I should do something
different.  Anything anyone could add would be helpful.

 

I was not the person who setup the BPS.  The technician who set it up put
the software on the wrong server (Despite my explicit instructions) and
caused a real mess when it was added.  The user is understandably a bit gun
shy about the process, he knows this could get a bit messy, but I want to
try and make this as painless as possible.

Subject: NFS case sensitive files in Linux and Windows

Dear all,

  We have a NFS filesystem imported from a Windows machine and a Linux machine. 
  
  If we create a text file called test.txt from Linux with content 1 and 
then create afterwards a file called TEST.txt from Linux with content 2, if 
you try to open any of those files from the Windows machine, it will show both 
of them with content 1.

  If I try to open TEST.txt from the linux box, it reports that this file 
doesn't exist, although I can see from the Windows box.

  This come from a test trying to perform a Netbackup restore of NFS 
filesystems in a Linux box. The restore is not case sensitive so any file that 
is lower case or upper case is restored as one single file. The reason why we 
are using Linux to perform the restore is because our Netbackup server is Linux 
and would require to perform restores from client machines the requirement of 
performing netbackup restores from Windows machines.

  I hope I have explained myself well

  Thanks,

  Miguel

 Hi chaps,

 Whats the best (read proper) way to disable folder redirection for any user
 on one machine? We have a 2008/vista based network and we use folder
 redirection to keep the data on the servers. All good. However we have some
 new laptops which will go out in the field and it's been decided that the
 users will need to be able to log on to the laptops as themselves (rather
 than using a dedicated local account on the laptop). However this in turn
 goes against the data policy which precludes laptops from having copies of
 users profiles or company data on them (everything is to be access via SSL
 web app).

 Is the best way to just add the computer name to the permissions of the
 folder redirection GPO and then set that permission to denied ?

I also like that they say ESXi 3.5 or earlier is an application that 
installs on Windows, is commonly known in the consumer market and 
installed by the user with no way for central administration via WSUS. 
It's like they looked up a bunch of applications that execs might

Re: issue with accessing \\servername

2008-12-16 Thread Jesse Rink

Ok, a couple updates

I found out the following.  Servers in Site-A cannot be accessed at Site-B via 
\\servername, UNLESS the server in Site-A has a route added to it (persistent 
route or automatically added) for the network at Site-B.

Site-A is a 10.x.x.x., Site-B is a 192.168.x.x

Devices in Site-A have a gateway of 10.0.0.1.  The 10.0.0.1 device (which is an 
ISA firewall) has a persistent route added for 192.168.x.x that points to the 
10.0.0.254 site-to-site vpn router.

I tested this repeatedly, and as long as a server in Site-A has a persistent 
route added, *OR* as long as the server in Site-A has at LEAST tried to either 
PING a device on the 192.168.x.x network or tried to access a device on the 
192.168.x.x. network via SMB (shares, for instance) then the proper route 
statement automatically gets added to that servers routing table.   So in other 
words, even if it doesn't HAVE a persisntent route to 192.168.x.x via 
10.0.0.254, it CAN get one by pinging or accessing a server share in the 
192.168.x.x. network and KEEPS that route until the server is rebooted, loses 
network connection, or the route expires.

So... this makes me wonder.  If Server-5 does NOT have a persistent route to 
192.168.x.x at Site-B, and instead goes through it's normal gateway 10.0.0.1, a 
server in Site-B, CAN still ping Server-5.  Yet, cannot access the \\servername 
share, UNLESS Server-5 either a) first pings something in Site-B, b) accesses a 
server share in Site-B, or c) has a persistent route added for Site-B, or d) 
has the default gw changed from 10.0.0.1 to 10.0.0.254.   It almost seems like 
the 10.0.0.1 router is NOT doing it's job, but in a way, it seems to be, since 
pinging works between the sites.

I will call Vigor tech (vpn routers between the 2 sites) and see what they say.

I did some ping tests also, and found that trying to ping with packets larger 
than 3 over the VPN fail everytime.  29000 they work fine... 29500 they 
fail 50% of the time.  Not sure what that tells me though...

I'm considering just changing things arounds so that the default gw at site-A 
is 10.0.0.254 instead of 10.0.0.1... and changing the route statements on the 
vigor site-to-site vpn route to forward all 192.168.x.x traffic over the vpn, 
an the rest of it to 10.0.0.1 (the isa firewall). I'm thinking that SHOULD fix 
the issue.

  Try ping'ing with larger packet sizes.  Try multiple sizes, such as
500, 2000, 1, 3, 6, and 65500.  Might be an issue with
path MTU.  That's not uncommon with VPNs, since you're encapsulating
datagrams inside datagrams -- an already max-size datagram then won't
fit without fragmentation.  That wouldn't show up with the default
ping of 64 bytes.

  Could also be a name resolution issue.  I've seen name resolution
issues screw-up SMB, even when you give an IP address for the server
name.  Along those lines:

  Do you have WINS server(s) configured with all computers at all
sites using the same set of WINS server(s)?  If you are not using
WINS, do you have NetBIOS-over-TCP/IP force-disabled on all clients?

  Describe your DNS topology, including domains, nameservers, which
sites which nameservers are at, and which nameservers which clients
are configured to use.  You can substitute names if you want, but be

RE: NFS case sensitive files in Linux and Windows

2008-12-16 Thread Miguel Gonzalez

Thanks for your answer.

I have been given more accurate info and I was a bit wrong of the assumptions. 
The main issue is that backing up from the Windows machine the NFS export (as 
local filesystem) from Netbackup is causing that anything case sensitive 
written from POSIX machines (Unix/Linux) is just considered as just one file. 
Backing up such exported NFS filesystem from a Linux machine takes 4 times more 
(40 MB/s vs 8 MB/s)

Can you point me to documents of such Windows kernel tuning? We are wondering 
if changing something in the OS level could change the behavior of Netbackup 
running on Windows and performing restores case sensitive.

This makes sense?

Thanks again,

Miguel

 Dear all,

   If we create a text file called test.txt from

   If I try to open TEST.txt from the linux box,

   This come from a test trying to perform a Netbackup
 restore of NFS filesystems in a Linux box. The restore is
 not case sensitive so any file that is lower case or upper

 using Linux to perform the restore is because our Netbackup
 server is Linux and would require to perform restores from
 client machines the requirement of performing netbackup
 restores from Windows machines.

ROBOCOPY /XD (exclude directory) wildcards

Hey all,

  With ROBOCOPY, is there a way to configure a directory exclude with
a full path with a wildcard in the middle of the path?  I want to do
something like this:

ROBOCOPY /E D:\ \\backup_server\backup_share\original_server\D /XD
D:\Programs\Microsoft\RIS\Setup\English\Images\*\i386\

  If I try the above, ROBOCOPY refuses to run, saying Invalid Parameter.

  The official docs just say /XD supports wildcards, but don't explain
any details.  From what little third-party info I can find, you can
say /XD *cache* to exclude any folder containing the substring
cache, but I'm not so sure about full paths.  I suspect ROBOCOPY
just doesn't do this, but I wanted a second opinion.

  The specific application is: I want to exclude the Remote
Installation Services i386 folders from a server-to-server backup,
since those can be trivially copied from CD again.  I want to preserve
other things, such as customizations under \$OEM$\.  I want to avoid
having to specify each and every image explictly, if I can, since I'm
sure one of these days we'll forget to add a new image name to the
exclude list, and accidentally backup a gigabyte of Windows install
CD.

people are working during sick leave or on disability.

That's why in the past when dealing with folks in this situation I disable
their account, put an alternate recipient on their email, and take away or
turn everything else off.

Interesting.  Even after that, he can still send email (cause I got one from
him pleading to not disable).  Of course, I don't get his mentality, he's in
the hospital with blood pressure, and I quote off the chart and he wants
to send emails.

 

So we are just going to take him out of BES and we'll reprovision when his
health improves.

RE: NFS case sensitive files in Linux and Windows

Priceless,
A windows machine getting better throughput via NFS to a Linux Server versus a 
Linux Host?
What Server/Linux Host? Mount options, bad NFS Kernel (Recent RHEL debacle 
finally just resolved)...

Remember that Google suggestion :)
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929110
/snip
This problem occurs because a problem in the original .NET Framework 2.0 Setup 
sets the value of the HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session 
Manager\kernel\ dword:ObCaseInsensitive registry key to 1. The 
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\kernel\ 
dword:ObCaseInsensitive registry key determines whether a file system is case 
sensitive or case insensitive. If the value of this key is set to 1, the file 
system is treated as case insensitive. If the value of this key is set to 0, 
the file system is treated as case sensitive.
/snip

I would research the ramifications of this tweak, and if you have a Linux 
Backup License/Agent
for your ware I would most certainly tune your mount and avoid this super messy 
conundrum!
How are you handling perms etc in your backup?

Subject: RE: NFS case sensitive files in Linux and Windows

Thanks for your answer.

I have been given more accurate info and I was a bit wrong of the assumptions. 
The main issue is that backing up from the Windows machine the NFS export (as 
local filesystem) from Netbackup is causing that anything case sensitive 
written from POSIX machines (Unix/Linux) is just considered as just one file. 
Backing up such exported NFS filesystem from a Linux machine takes 4 times more 
(40 MB/s vs 8 MB/s)

Can you point me to documents of such Windows kernel tuning? We are wondering 
if changing something in the OS level could change the behavior of Netbackup 
running on Windows and performing restores case sensitive.

This makes sense?

Thanks again,

Miguel

 Dear all,
 
   We have a NFS filesystem imported from a Windows machine
 and a Linux machine. 
   
   If we create a text file called test.txt from
 Linux with content 1 and then create afterwards
 a file called TEST.txt from Linux with
 content 2, if you try to open any of those files
 from the Windows machine, it will show both of them with
 content 1.
 
   If I try to open TEST.txt from the linux box,
 it reports that this file doesn't exist, although I can
 see from the Windows box.
 
   This come from a test trying to perform a Netbackup
 restore of NFS filesystems in a Linux box. The restore is
 not case sensitive so any file that is lower case or upper
 case is restored as one single file. The reason why we are
 using Linux to perform the restore is because our Netbackup
 server is Linux and would require to perform restores from
 client machines the requirement of performing netbackup
 restores from Windows machines.
 
   I hope I have explained myself well

Subject: ROBOCOPY /XD (exclude directory) wildcards

Hey all,

  With ROBOCOPY, is there a way to configure a directory exclude with
a full path with a wildcard in the middle of the path?  I want to do
something like this:

ROBOCOPY /E D:\ \\backup_server\backup_share\original_server\D
/XD
D:\Programs\Microsoft\RIS\Setup\English\Images\*\i386\

  If I try the above, ROBOCOPY refuses to run, saying Invalid
Parameter.

  The official docs just say /XD supports wildcards, but don't explain
any details.  From what little third-party info I can find, you can
say /XD *cache* to exclude any folder containing the substring
cache, but I'm not so sure about full paths.  I suspect ROBOCOPY
just doesn't do this, but I wanted a second opinion.

  The specific application is: I want to exclude the Remote
Installation Services i386 folders from a server-to-server backup,
since those can be trivially copied from CD again.  I want to preserve
other things, such as customizations under \$OEM$\.  I want to avoid
having to specify each and every image explictly, if I can, since I'm
sure one of these days we'll forget to add a new image name to the
exclude list, and accidentally backup a gigabyte of Windows install
CD.

There is no Server Authentication Certificate unless you've created one. If

RE: Vista Ultimate in W2K3 domain question.

2008-12-16 Thread Les Minaker

The only oddness I have seen is that sometimes mapped drives (authenticated 
with an account in the target domain - the laptop I use is a member of another 
domain altogether) sometimes stop working. Disconnecting and reconnecting works 
about 50% of the time. Occasionally, Explorer hangs and I have to end it and 
restart it.

Les.

Does anyone know of any issues with a Vista Ultimate laptop accessing a W2K3 
domain. Namely for Exchange, file and printer access. The laptop would not be a

Are these common now? I use LinkedIn too, so that may even be an option.

Uh, what/why are you asking?

We've had no issues with our 3 Vista laptops.  However, we are a Lotus Notes 
shop, and the laptops are domain members.

(Well, actually we did have an issue with the Business machines.  We had to 
wipe and re-install two of them before the OS would accept Administrator as a 
Local Administrator.  No such problem with our one
Ultimate.)

There is no Server Authentication Certificate unless you've created
one. If you have created one, it's likely that the account you are using
to request the certificate does not have permissions for that
certificate.

 

Server Authentication is a property of a certificate. The Web Server
certificate has it and will do what you need.

My experience with PSEXEC is that it doesn't like to have multiple
commands pasted in. I work them individually, but it's usually in small
batches of users so it's not bad. I connect to the computer to run
cmd.exe then do my stuff from there one command at a time. I even made a
batch file to make it easier...

 

Psexecsys.bat 10.1.1.1 jmorris My Password

Psexec \\%1 file:///\\%251  -u domain\%2  -p %3 cmd.exe

 

Then I do my things from there one at a time. I've tried to run batch
files from that cmd prompt but had very poor luck. If you do find a way
to do it, that would be nice.

Good luck!

This it OT, but where do you find or post your resumes these days? HR has an
IT opening and Monster is just ridiculous expensive to look through. Years
ago I know dice.com was a common tech job site, and so was careerbuilder.
Are these common now? I use LinkedIn too, so that may even be an option.
Just curious if any of you do any hiring and what your experience is these
days.

Thanks

Puke?... hmm.. I kinda like the hardware.  Their macbooks sure look a whole lot 
better then a clunky PC notebook that has silly stickers everywhere like its 
some kind of Nascar, vents on the bottom that get blocked if you plop it on a 
couch (macs are on the rear), keyboards sure arent as nice, well, just overall 
just not as elegant.



Anyway not too long ago somebody told me about these guys if you want to make a 
hackintosh, don't know if that helps out in a VM though.

Heh,
My buddy dragged me to the local Best Buy last week to look for a laptop (he's 
a Dentists) and he bought a 2200.00 Mac that was only as good as generic POS 
for half the cost.
I was disgusted :)

I guess if your computer literate, you can see the insanity in this. Anyone 
here running a Mac? What's the availability of software like for it? Is it 
anywhere near like that of Fedora or Ubuntu?

  Yup, it is.  Folder exists.  Permission exists.

  No spaces.  I just tried enclosing in quotes anyway, same result.

  If I don't use an asterisk wildcard it then will run, so I'm pretty

Services for Unix and Hyper-V, User Name Mapping and NFS

2008-12-16 Thread John Gwinner

I can't seem to get User Name Mapping working, would appreciate any
advice.  My 2nd server can't read any of the names from the SFU name
server, even though it's communicating.

 

Setup

 

I have a Windows 2003 DC, with Services for Unix running.

 

I have a Windows 2008 Server with Hyper-V running.  I need to make some
windows shares (on a SAN) available via NFS to my VM's.  This is to
setup an Oracle RAC database on, and Hyper-V doesn't pass through the
Fiber to the VM's, so a shared NFS mount is the only way to do it (with
Hyper-V).

 

I have advanced mapping in place and have correctly followed the
directions at
http://blogs.msdn.com/sfu/archive/2007/10/02/configuring-user-name-mappi
ng-part-2-simple-mapping.aspx to get SFU name mapping working.  It works
from the DC but not a member server.

 

The DC is Win2k3 Standard, the Hyper-V server is Win2008 Advanced.

 

If I create a shared folder in the DC, then go to the NFS Sharing tab,
then click 'permissions' the 'add' button is enabled and the list is
populated.  If I click add, I can choose the accounts I have mapped.

 

However, on the Hyper-V machine (Win2k8), if I go to NFS Sharing, then
'manage' then 'permissions' the 'add' button is disabled.  If I manually
put in an (existing) name, say 'oracle' in the 'Add Names' box and click
'ok' it says The name oracle could not be resolved'.

 

I have the Properties under Services for NFS correctly pointing to the
DC as the User Name Mapping server.  I have a .maphosts entry that
correctly identifies the Hyper-V server as a valid client, and I also
have a + rule for default.  (anything to get it to work).

 

I also tried disabling all the local firewalls.

 

The event log on Win2008 shows NfsServer Event ID 1007, Server for NFS
successfully obtained mapping information from User Name Mapping.  No
other errors in the event log.

 

It's as if the Hyper-V server isn't communicating with the DC.  

 

Any ideas?

This it OT, but where do you find or post your resumes these
days? HR has an IT opening and Monster is just ridiculous expensive to
look through. Years ago I know dice.com was a common tech job site, and
so was careerbuilder. Are these common now? I use LinkedIn too, so that
may even be an option. Just curious if any of you do any hiring and what
your experience is these days.

Thanks

I don't know about in your area, but when we posted to Craigslist we did not
get the greatest of applicants.  We have had better luck posting with the
state employment office.
