RE: OT - Creating deployment media with menu choice of OS, etc.
If you want OS plus apps then MDT will do it. One thing to realise is that if you want a completely unattended install then you will need to test the image and it would be easier to just create an ISO of that build. We have a base image which we can push out which we then run a script on that does the rest. In specific cases we can add that script to the image as a final step, but more often than not it fails due to human errors, or something that has been updated. If you follow the MDT then create a bootable USB and add an autounattend file then you can be done from start to finish in about an hour - and you're good to go. Also make sure the USB stick is NOT completely automated - especially if you set it to re-partition the drive, I almost lost my laptop that way!!

RE: Script to change Network Adapters Binding
The blog post is about changing network binding order. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Linkage Bind -- reg_multi_sz The Bind registry value contains a list of devices and that list is the registry binding order. That list looks something like the below (taken off my Server 2008 R2 server): \Device\{17333B2B-417A-4067-AC98-B7EB24FCB339} \Device\{23A51D9E-9FFA-4F32-8F67-B9C4B61E2FAD} \Device\{9638CAB0-CFC8-433F-B189-099B0518F380} \Device\{A25EC12E-404C-4234-A4F9-18D9D8BAD79C} \Device\{E7B7845A-A963-4085-8B4E-276F6D19A74B} \Device\{D887DA91-0415-470E-AAD9-CACB2319BC87} \Device\{4034AA4F-1E2D-4F84-A244-D94355DC2BD8} \Device\{F41AB86C-A9BC-4513-9303-075EF4F77E03} \Device\{EAFA97BD-3969-48A0-9421-5ECB81C1BB18} You have to take the GUIDs and look them up to find the device names. That information is at: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Network\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\interface GUID\Connection Name -- reg_sz Which easily lets me figure out: \Device\{17333B2B-417A-4067-AC98-B7EB24FCB339} - Local Area Connection* 9 \Device\{23A51D9E-9FFA-4F32-8F67-B9C4B61E2FAD} - Local Area Connection 7 \Device\{9638CAB0-CFC8-433F-B189-099B0518F380} - Local Area Connection 6 \Device\{A25EC12E-404C-4234-A4F9-18D9D8BAD79C} - Local Area Connection 3 \Device\{E7B7845A-A963-4085-8B4E-276F6D19A74B} - Local Area Connection 5 \Device\{D887DA91-0415-470E-AAD9-CACB2319BC87} - Local Area Connection 4 \Device\{4034AA4F-1E2D-4F84-A244-D94355DC2BD8} - Local Area Connection 2 \Device\{F41AB86C-A9BC-4513-9303-075EF4F77E03} - Local Area Connection \Device\{EAFA97BD-3969-48A0-9421-5ECB81C1BB18} - Wireless Network Connection Which is exactly the binding order shown in Advanced network properties on my computer.

Re: OT : Malware alerts from McAfee, anyone experienced these yet ?
Based on the reports of a .SCR file as the attachment, I wonder why these organizations are even allowing that extension into their networks. BTW, doesn't Google own Postini? Is there any reason why they should have been hit?

RE: W2k3 DHCP redundancy / high availability
What is the lease time on your DHCP server? You might want to change this to say 2-3 days which will enable you to fix the original problem if there is one. From: Raper, Jonathan - Eagle [mailto:jra...@eaglemds.com] Sent: 09 September 2010 22:55 To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: W2k3 DHCP redundancy / high availability Ok, here goes... Present environment - pure Windows 2003 AD, with two DCs. One is virtual (vmware esx 3.5), 2003 Enterprise Edition. The other is physical, 2003 Standard Edition (not sure why - I didn't set it up). Virtual DC is running DHCP for our entire organization, and would be a pain to go through and setup split scopes (many sites, multiple vlans per site, and thus, multiple DHCP scopes for each site.) A year ago, we were using Cisco devices at each remote site to handle DHCP for each subnet. We performed a major network overhaul and had to centralize, so here we are. I've now been tasked with building redundancy for our DHCP services. Moving to Server 2008 is not an option right now. We MAY be able to upgrade the 2003 Standard server to 2003 Enterprise, but that isn't a given just yet. Issues... Can't cluster, because of the Std Edition OS, (but even then, how would that impact AD DNS?) Can't backup from Primary and restore to Secondary, again, because of different OS (M$ says, not supported to backup from Enterprise and try to restore to Standard) As mentioned, split scopes would be a major admin pain (it wouldn't be so bad if we had 2008, since there is a wizard in 2008, but I digress) So, the way I see it, I have a couple of options... Setup secondary as a hot spare but disable the DHCP service unless and until the primary becomes available. Use netsh dhcp server export c:\dhcpdatabase.txt all on a daily basis to ensure a valid backup of the primary, and copy that file over to the secondary as part of one scheduled task. -or- Setup secondary, authorize it, configure it, turn it on, (hear me out here) and setup IP Address Conflict Resolution at the server level on both servers, and let them work it out on their own. I realize that I wouldn't have any lease synchronization, and that there is a slight risk of duplicate IP, but I can't imagine there would be much. My WAN links are solid. Also, any scope or option changes made on the primary would have to be duplicated on the secondary...administrative overhead yes, but still less than dealing with split scope, IMO. Even then, couldn't I just export from the primary after I've made changes and then import to the secondary? I know lease information is contained in the exported file...trying to decide whether or not that would be good or bad... if it wouldn't be a problem, why not take it a step further and schedule an export/import from the primary to the secondary?

bandwidth monitoring part deux
So I was reading up on implementing netflow on my Cisco 3750 core switch stack and guess whut. The 3750 platform does not support netflow. Awesome. So, I'm now thinking I my only option is to span my uplink port to my ASA and use software brand 'X' to analyze the captured data and put it into purdy little graphs for this customer. Customer would like to know who is using bandwidth and what they are doing with it. FYI, I'm already running MRTG Bundle on the switches so I have raw bandwidth utilization numbers, trends, etc. However, I need the ability to drill down more. I do have an upstream ASA5510 running 8.3.1 and an upstream 2821 router to terminate two ISPs, do the BGP stuff but I figure monitoring the ASA or the BGP router is worthless b\c of translation, etc. You done got any ideers?

ARIN or other IP lookup?
Greetings! A few weeks ago, ARIN had a very nice web site. I could open my book mark, enter the IP address (copy and paste) of a spam or scan source, and see where it came from. It would reference me to other similar agencies (RIPE, APNIC, etc) which I could then open, paste in the same IP, and finish chasing.

ex2010 not delivering to yahoo.com addresses
Hi all, So, we have recently installed exchange 2010 in our shop to get some experience with it. i have some weird issue. It seems that messages going to yahoo.com are sitting in the queue on the edge transport server and giving our users delayed message NDRs. I have used telnet from the machine to send a message to yahoo without a problem. If I track one of these messages using the new nifty tracking in OWA it tells me the messages have been handed off: /Submitted 9/10/2010 10:37 AM The message was submitted. Transferred 9/10/2010 10:37 AM The message was successfully handed off to a different e-mail system. This is as far as we can track it. /Any ideas what could could be causing this or what else I should be looking at? This Exchange is a totally different beast from 2003.

Re: ARIN or other IP lookup?
Removing the links to the other registries is what I hate most about the new site. The good news is that APNIC's Whois lookup seems to work for most, if not all, of the other registries. Maybe we should just default to that one instead of ARIN. http://wq.apnic.net/apnic-bin/whois.pl http://wq.apnic.net/apnic-bin/whois.pl On Fri, Sep 10, 2010 at 12:04 PM, richardmccl...@aspca.org wrote: Thanks!

I'll grant you that the user experience may be surprising, but message tracking works as it is intended to do. GUI-based message tracking works within the Exchange Active Directory forest. Edge Transport servers are not part of the same Active Directory forest. Permissions and roles are not shared between the Exchange organization and Edge transport servers, since permissions are based on the Active Directory forest where the Exchange organization is installed.

Re: ex2010 not delivering to yahoo.com addresses
So, does message tracking gui work on edge server in SP1? I understand that it is outside of the forest and can't make use of AD, but it seems like tracking messages from an edge transport would be important for tracking down problems with email flow or delivery...and connecting to AD shouldn't be necessary to provide useful information.

One is virtual (vmware esx 3.5), 2003 Enterprise Edition. The other is physical, 2003 Standard Edition (not sure why – I didn’t set it up). Virtual DC is running DHCP for our entire organization, and would be a pain to go through and setup split scopes (many sites, multiple vlans per site, and thus, multiple DHCP scopes for each site.) A year ago, we were using Cisco devices at each remote site to handle DHCP for each subnet. We performed a major network overhaul and had to centralize, so here we are. I’ve now been tasked with building redundancy for our DHCP services. Moving to Server 2008 is not an option right now. We MAY be able to upgrade the 2003 Standard server to 2003 Enterprise, but that isn’t a given just yet. Issues… Can’t cluster, because of the Std Edition OS, (but even then, how would that impact AD DNS?) Can’t backup from Primary and restore to Secondary, again, because of different OS (M$ says, “not supported” to backup from Enterprise and try to restore to Standard) As mentioned, split scopes would be a major admin pain (it wouldn’t be so bad if we had 2008, since there is a wizard in 2008, but I digress) So, the way I see it, I have a couple of options… Setup “secondary” as a “hot spare” but disable the DHCP service unless and until the primary becomes available. Use netsh dhcp server export c:\dhcpdatabase.txt all on a daily basis to ensure a valid “backup” of the primary, and copy that file over to the secondary as part of one scheduled task. -or- Setup secondary, authorize it, configure it, turn it on, (hear me out here) and setup IP Address Conflict Resolution at the server level on both servers, and let them “work it out” on their own. I realize that I wouldn’t have any lease synchronization, and that there is a slight risk of duplicate IP, but I can’t imagine there would be much. My WAN links are solid. Also, any scope or option changes made on the primary would have to be duplicated on the secondary…administrative overhead yes, but still less than dealing with split scope, IMO. Even then, couldn’t I just export from the primary after I’ve made changes and then import to the secondary? I know lease information is contained in the exported file…trying to decide whether or not that would be good or bad… if it wouldn’t be a problem, why not take it a step further and schedule an export/import from the primary to the secondary?

Re: W2k3 DHCP redundancy / high availability

One is virtual (vmware esx 3.5), 2003 Enterprise Edition. The other is physical, 2003 Standard Edition (not sure why – I didn’t set it up). Virtual DC is running DHCP for our entire organization, and would be a pain to go through and setup split scopes (many sites, multiple vlans per site, and thus, multiple DHCP scopes for each site.) A year ago, we were using Cisco devices at each remote site to handle DHCP for each subnet. We performed a major network overhaul and had to centralize, so here we are. I’ve now been tasked with building redundancy for our DHCP services. Moving to Server 2008 is not an option right now. We MAY be able to upgrade the 2003 Standard server to 2003 Enterprise, but that isn’t a given just yet. Issues… Can’t cluster, because of the Std Edition OS, (but even then, how would that impact AD DNS?) Can’t backup from Primary and restore to Secondary, again, because of different OS (M$ says, “not supported” to backup from Enterprise and try to restore to Standard) As mentioned, split scopes would be a major admin pain (it wouldn’t be so bad if we had 2008, since there is a wizard in 2008, but I digress) So, the way I see it, I have a couple of options… Setup “secondary” as a “hot spare” but disable the DHCP service unless and until the primary becomes available. Use netsh dhcp server export c:\dhcpdatabase.txt all on a daily basis to ensure a valid “backup” of the primary, and copy that file over to the secondary as part of one scheduled task. -or- Setup secondary, authorize it, configure it, turn it on, (hear me out here) and setup IP Address Conflict Resolution at the server level on both servers, and let them “work it out” on their own. I realize that I wouldn’t have any lease synchronization, and that there is a slight risk of duplicate IP, but I can’t imagine there would be much. My WAN links are solid. Also, any scope or option changes made on the primary would have to be duplicated on the secondary…administrative overhead yes, but still less than dealing with split scope, IMO. Even then, couldn’t I just export from the primary after I’ve made changes and then import to the secondary? I know lease information is contained in the exported file…trying to decide whether or not that would be good or bad… if it wouldn’t be a problem, why not take it a step further and schedule an export/import from the primary to the secondary?

I have used telnet from the machine to send a message to yahoo without a problem. If I track one of these messages using the new nifty tracking in OWA it tells me the messages have been handed off: /Submitted 9/10/2010 10:37 AM The message was submitted. Transferred 9/10/2010 10:37 AM The message was successfully handed off to a different e-mail system. This is as far as we can track it. /Any ideas what could could be causing this or what else I should be looking at? This Exchange is a totally different beast from 2003.

Windows 7 Folder Redirection Issues
I am using Windows 2008 R2 for my AD server, in which I have a GPO setup to redirect the My Documents folder to the users home folder. I have set the folder redirection for my documents (User Config.-Windows Settings-Folder Redirection-Documents-Target folder location) to both “Redirect to the user’s home directory” and “Redirect to the following location”. Whenever I select “Redirect to the user’s home directory”, it redirects the home folder to %HOMESHARE%%HOMEPATH%, which it doesn’t need %HOMEPATH appended to it. If I set it to “Redirect to the user’s home directory”, which would be “//server/folder/%username%/” (and I have also entered it without the trailing /) or “H:/” which is their home drive. Then, I apply it, and then click ok. When I go back into it, it’s changed to “Create a folder for each user under the root path”. I then get the following error on the client machines: Description: Failed to apply policy and redirect folder Documents to \\SERVER\folder\stafftest\file:///\\SERVER\folder\stafftest\. Redirection options=0x80001211. The following error occurred: Can not create folder \\SERVER\folder\stafftestfile:///\\SERVER\folder\stafftest. Error details: This security ID may not be assigned as the owner of this object. . Yes, the folder exists. Yes, the user does have permission to it. Not sure why it’s trying to create a new folder though. I have checked through the GPO’s and there are no policies above that might be affecting this, other than the default domain policy, although it has no folder redirection settings. This is a very inconsistent issue as I’ve seen it affect network admin accounts, but not some regular user accounts, and then the same account will be affected on one computer, but not another. Very frustrating. Has anyone seen this before? Any ideas, suggestions?

Re: ex2010 not delivering to yahoo.com addresses
Ha. Thanks. That put me in the right direction. So, it looks like there was a DNS issue. SMTP,yahoo.com,,DNS server returned ErrorRetry reported by 0.0.0.0 I checked the settings and the person who setup the system had the secondary DNS server set to a decommissioned server's IP address. I corrected that and also gave the VM a restart. Mail flowing to yahoo.com correctly now. I'm surprised that the secondary DNS would be causing the issue...and since I didn't test thinks before giving the server a bump, I can't really confirm that fixed it, rather than just the restart.

It's been quite a while since I've looked at that, but if I recall, you would do alternate access within WSS. It should create the site in IIS.

Present environment - pure Windows 2003 AD, with two DCs. One is virtual (vmware esx 3.5), 2003 Enterprise Edition. The other is physical, 2003 Standard Edition (not sure why - I didn't set it up). Virtual DC is running DHCP for our entire organization, and would be a pain to go through and setup split scopes (many sites, multiple vlans per site, and thus, multiple DHCP scopes for each site.) A year ago, we were using Cisco devices at each remote site to handle DHCP for each subnet. We performed a major network overhaul and had to centralize, so here we are. I've now been tasked with building redundancy for our DHCP services. Moving to Server 2008 is not an option right now. We MAY be able to upgrade the 2003 Standard server to 2003 Enterprise, but that isn't a given just yet. Issues... Can't cluster, because of the Std Edition OS, (but even then, how would that impact AD DNS?) Can't backup from Primary and restore to Secondary, again, because of different OS (M$ says, not supported to backup from Enterprise and try to restore to Standard) As mentioned, split scopes would be a major admin pain (it wouldn't be so bad if we had 2008, since there is a wizard in 2008, but I digress) So, the way I see it, I have a couple of options... Setup secondary as a hot spare but disable the DHCP service unless and until the primary becomes available. Use netsh dhcp server export c:\dhcpdatabase.txt all on a daily basis to ensure a valid backup of the primary, and copy that file over to the secondary as part of one scheduled task. -or- Setup secondary, authorize it, configure it, turn it on, (hear me out here) and setup IP Address Conflict Resolution at the server level on both servers, and let them work it out on their own. I realize that I wouldn't have any lease synchronization, and that there is a slight risk of duplicate IP, but I can't imagine there would be much. My WAN links are solid. Also, any scope or option changes made on the primary would have to be duplicated on the secondary...administrative overhead yes, but still less than dealing with split scope, IMO. Even then, couldn't I just export from the primary after I've made changes and then import to the secondary? I know lease information is contained in the exported file...trying to decide whether or not that would be good or bad... if it wouldn't be a problem, why not take it a step further and schedule an export/import from the primary to the secondary?

I hate the intercom/bell system in our schools. Not that there is anything wrong with them, but they're troublesome, difficult to program, and very old. I've got the opportunity to try a new system in a tiny school with only 4 rooms. So I' have been looking at IP based systems. So far, I've found that they are mostly SIP phone systems with special (and very expensive) VOIP speakers. Is there a system that can use existing analog speakers, but the head-end is IP Addressable? Or perhaps there are cheaper VOIP speakers/adapters out there somewhere? Can anybody here recommend for (or against) such a system? I _need_ the following features: * Broadcasting (All Call) * Medium to Complex bell schedules to specific zones. * Two way communication with a specific room.

I understand that it is outside of the forest and can't make use of AD, but it seems like tracking messages from an edge transport would be important for tracking down problems with email flow or delivery...and connecting to AD shouldn't be necessary to provide useful information. Now to figure out how to use that Get-MessageTrackingLog commandlet. Bill Michael B.

GUI-based message tracking works within the Exchange Active Directory forest. Edge Transport servers are not part of the same Active Directory forest. Permissions and roles are not shared between the Exchange organization and Edge transport servers, since permissions are based on the Active Directory forest where the Exchange organization is installed. The message was received by a hub transport server and handed off to an edge server. At that point, it was delivered to a different email system. Regards, Michael B. Smith

RE: Paging, Bell and Intercom Systems?
I used to install school intercom systems, years ago, in a previous life. Telecor, based in Canada, (our 51st state [1]), made an excellent product. I can't speak to their quality now, but it is still run by the same man, so I would almost stand behind it sight unseen. I used to know the president of the company, Peter Jova - he's a great guy, but haven't talked to him in probably 15 years - maybe more. http://www.telecor.com/IIandXL.htm I don't know if the end devices are analog or IP based, but it is programmable via a web interface.

RE: OT: Completely off topic
When in San Diego I always try to take a trip to Julian for some of the best apple pie you will ever have. There are 12 or so places to buy apple pie in this quiet very small township. Bring your own cheese. When I lived up north in Ontario for a few years I learned An apple pie without the cheese, is like a kiss without the squeeze. Cheddar is best. You don't taste the cheese, and it brings out the flavor in the apple. La Jolla shores has some great areas to go cliff jumping if you so desire, and La Jolla shores has some nice beaches with decent waves and long declines into the ocean. If you have little kids in tow, my favorite beach is at the Hotel Del Coronado because they go through with a beachcomber every night and clean out the seaweed and debris from the sand. Old Town (in San Diego) is fun to roam around and has some good eateries too for some good southwest food.

I'd also look up when the Food Trucks are all out in Venice (it's a couple days a month I think) as they're a unique experience. In LA, I'd add The Getty, Venice, Santa Monica, possibly drive down to San Diego (spend a night or two there it's really nice and totally different - only like 90 mins away). The USS Midway is fun in San Diego, you can actually take light rail to Tijuana also. Drive through like La Jolla and such along the coast. In general driving along the coast (PCH) is generally very pretty. Topanga Canyon north of LA is a fun drive. The San Diego Zoo is one of the top zoos out there (though I haven't yet been).
