RE: Windows 2008 R2 - Default NTFS Permissions on new drive

[Carl Houseman]

No need to kill anything.  Just type "explorer ." from an elevated command 
prompt.  Putting a parameter on the command line is important.  You'll get a 
new process that's elevated, regardless of the "launch folder windows in 
separate process" setting.

Re: Windows 2008 R2 - Default NTFS Permissions on new drive

[Crawford, Scott]

Yeah, that definitely works, but killing explorer every time you want to switch 
contexts gets tedious. You can kill it with task manager too for the same 
effect.

Um, an actual Dell battery that's been refurbed by someone other than Dell

Subject: RE: Dell battery replacement still giving warning

Actually it's supposed to be an actual Dell battery that's been refurbed by
someone other than Dell, so it doesn't have the Dell sticker price. :-)
Still, it may be better if we can't get this working, to go ahead and pay
the $80 or so that Dell wants for a new battery..

Off-brand battery? I've used them before when I need something cheap and
immediate but with batteries, you really get what you pay for. Also you
run the risk of off-brands being made with defective cells and there's
nothing more fun than a lithium fire in your lap!

Not quite.  You can create a separate process with "explorer /separate".
This works great in XP with runas for creating an explorer window under a
different security context.  It still works in Vista/7/2K8 to create a
separate process, but it still gets created without admin group in the
token.

You can't actually do a run-as for Windows Explorer. There is only a single
process per login, so the run-as doesn't work as expected.

Not consciously no - should it be just to access a hard drive?  I did try
running Windows Explorer with "Run as Administrator" and I still got access

Of course because the account is in the Administrators group it can format

RE: Windows 2008 R2 - Default NTFS Permissions on new drive

[Crawford, Scott]

Yeah, I've started noticing that as well.  I'm not too concerned with its 
features beyond the ability to help get around UAC. If it accomplishes that for 
me, it's served its purpose.  I'm heavily considering turning off UAC on my 
servers for this very reason, but I'd like to keep it if possible.

Yeah, UAC and Explorer is a major pain. It's basically completely broken. Just 
like the OP, I have drives permissioned with only Administrators:F and 
System:F. When opening that drive, one would expect to get a UAC prompt, but 
none is to be found.

far, I like it quite a bit, but I'm not a huge fan of adding another app to my

use the Open File dialog box in an elevated notepad session.

for %v in (dir1 dir2 dir3 dir4) do acopy
"\\source\share\%~v" "\\destination\share\%~v"

*http://KB.UltraTech-llc.com/Scripts/?File=aCopy.BAT
*

It is based on XCOPY

...OR...

You could use XCOPY/ROBOCOPY to copy everything and exclude the folders or
file types that you don't care about.

Easy enough to put together in 10-15 min, max


In contrast, this thread is now over an hour old.

Re: File Copier with GUI?

[Bob Hartung]

I use BeyondCompare ( www.scootersoftware.com ). It can do what you need and 
it's also an excellent synchronizing utility.

Another possibility might be the backup software you're using. We use Arcserve 
and they have a Copy utility. Even if your backup software doesn't have that, 
I'm sure it could be used to restore what you need to copy by just selecting a 
new destination.

I agree - the For /F option is ideal here. If you want something a little more

For /F %%i in (DirectoriesToCopy.txt) do robocopy /mir %%i %1
---robo.bat

To use it, run dir /ad/b > DirectoriesToCopy.txt, edit that to reflect just the

Could use something like SyncbackPro.  Probably overkill for your
situation and would take just as long to script a one time operation.
But it's cheap and has plenty of filter and logging options.

You know the scenario, you need to copy a few hundred gigs worth of

Robocopy is probably ideal but it's a PITA to script all those folder

You can give this a try. http://www.winzero.ca/ServerMigrator.html It can do
what you want even if it is called Serve Migrator. You can even have it do a
"dry run" to see where there could be problems.

what and why it happened).

 

So, what do you use?

 

I've tried Rich Copy which looks great, but in reality it just doesn't
seem to work very well with multiple source folders.

 

Thanks,

RE: Windows 2008 R2 - Default NTFS Permissions on new drive

[Crawford, Scott]

Yeah, UAC and Explorer is a major pain. It's basically completely broken. Just 
like the OP, I have drives permissioned with only Administrators:F and 
System:F. When opening that drive, one would expect to get a UAC prompt, but 
none is to be found.

I recently came across
http://blogs.technet.com/b/elevationpowertoys/archive/2009/11/20/explore-as-administrator-powertoy.aspx

which mentions using http://explorerplusplus.com/ which will run elevated. So 
far, I like it quite a bit, but I'm not a huge fan of adding another app to my 
environment, so I'd prefer a native solution. One somewhat klunky option is to 
use the Open File dialog box in an elevated notepad session.

Ideally, I'd like to find out how to use the Open File dialog from an elevated 
command line.

I too am a huge fan of the CLI, but sometimes the GUI is just easier.

Completely about UAC.

Disable UAC or use the File Server / Shares MMCs (elevated, of course) instead 
of Windows Explorer.

Note if your files don't have periods in them, dir *. /b will grab

Re: File Copier with GUI?

You say subdirectories...as in directories under a folder...
What's wrong with robocopy   /mir ?

Or grab a directory listing that's blank dir /b >directory.txt, filter the
unneeded directories (and files) and use a for /f %f in (directory.txt) do
robocopy X:\%f Y:\%f /mir , where X is the source drive and y: is
the destination drive

File Copier with GUI?

[Paul Hutchings]

You know the scenario, you need to copy a few hundred gigs worth of
specific sub directories from A to B.

 

Robocopy is probably ideal but it's a PITA to script all those folder
paths for a one-time operation, and if you do a ctrl-select and set the
copy off from Windows Explorer you can be pretty sure you're going to
walk in the next day to find it's got a problem with a single file half
way through so it's cancelled the whole operation (with no real clue
what and why it happened).

 

So, what do you use?

 

I've tried Rich Copy which looks great, but in reality it just doesn't
seem to work very well with multiple source folders.

 

Thanks,

Paul

Re: OT : Which AMD AM3 mobo ?

[Bill Humphries]

I bought the 880gm-ud2h this weekend bundled with a x2 555 processor 
which I hope to unlock to x4.  It's a similar board, but no USB3 or 6Gb 
sata.  Board and processor for $140.  Not bad for quad core.  It'll be 
the lightroom/photoshop/ home office machine.


The board is micro and affordable, so I'd like to get another to replace 
the htpc.

I installed 8 Gb of RAM on it and Win 7 64 bit.

RE: Dell battery replacement still giving warning

[John Aldrich]

Actually it's supposed to be an actual Dell battery that's been refurbed by
someone other than Dell, so it doesn't have the Dell sticker price. :-)
Still, it may be better if we can't get this working, to go ahead and pay
the $80 or so that Dell wants for a new battery..

Off-brand battery? I've used them before when I need something cheap and

run the risk of off-brands being made with defective cells and there's
nothing more fun than a lithium fire in your lap!

RE: Dell battery replacement still giving warning

[John Aldrich]

Thanks... the first didn't really apply, at least not the "battery
troubleshooting utility." That's for a different series of Latitude laptops.
This is a D531 Latitude. I did try the "battery reset" in the second link,
but that didn't make any difference either. The same "end of life" message
came up. I've got an email into the vendor who sold us the battery and I
think they just sold us a non-refurbed used battery as a refurb. Whether
that was by design or by accident, I don't know, but I think they'll make
good on the problem.

Isn't there a standard 1-year warranty on the D-series batteries? We
usually go through the battery's life every year and a half to two years.
If it's already failing I'd call Dell and have them get you a new one.

Hi all -

We are looking into purchasing a file virtualization solution and the one that 
I'm currently most interested in is the F5 ARX.
Does anyone have any in production or experience using them? I'm interested in 
hearing how well they work, any gotchas, etc.

We mostly want them for the global namespace and the ability to move files 
behind the scenes so we can replace NetApps, Windows servers, and Samba servers 
without any downtime.

I would welcome pointers to other competing solutions as well if you are aware 
of any.

Re: Help with a Juniper Netscreen firewall

[Andrew S. Baker]

In addition to the port forwarding, you will need to setup a separate policy
for that traffic to hit the necessary box on your internal network.   You
should already have similar HTTPS and SMTP policies in place, if those
protocols are working.

What is showing up in the logs for this traffic?

Re: Help with a Juniper Netscreen firewall

[Kramer, Jack]

The port forward is done as a VIP - the policy enables that VIP to
actually forward the traffic. You need both for it to work. The custom
service looks okay. It's "in use" because it's listed in a policy/VIP -
the in use prevents it from being deleted. Check your VIP settings for
your WAN interface.

Re: double hop RDP

[Andrew S. Baker]

Okay, I did get it to work, but I had to pay attention to the instructions.
:)

A = Physical Host
B = First RDP destination
C = RDP destination from B

If you want to send the CTRL-ALT-DEL sequence to machine C, then:

   - Go to B
   - Put machine C into a window (rather than than full screen)
   - On machine B, execute:  START --> RUN --> OSK
   - Use the On-Screen Keyboard to press:  CTRL-ALT-END

Now you'll have the CTRL-ALT-DEL sequence on machine C

Hi Erik,

 

I've done lots of double-nested RDP, for the reasons you mention, but I've
never had to send the CTRL-ALT-DEL keystroke to the final RDP recipient, so
I've never even looked into this. :)

 

Nice challenge for now...

That's interesting, Kevin.

 

I've never needed to send it to a nested RDP client before.  :) I
haven't yet seen a good approach for this.

 

What do you need to do?  Logon?  If so, just start a new MSTSC command from
the parent and take control in the new instance.

Re: Dell battery replacement still giving warning

[Kramer, Jack]

Off-brand battery? I've used them before when I need something cheap and
immediate but with batteries, you really get what you pay for. Also you
run the risk of off-brands being made with defective cells and there's
nothing more fun than a lithium fire in your lap!

Re: double hop RDP

[Andrew S. Baker]

Hey, Kevin

Check out this link:   One of the comments suggests using the On Screen
keyboard

http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-xp/ctrl-alt-del-remote-desktop/

I tried it via START -> RUN -> OSK on the nested system (which in my case is
a 2008 R2 machine), but it didn't work for me.  Maybe it will work for XP

F5 ARX opinions

[Mark Weber]

Hi all –

We are looking into purchasing a file virtualization solution and the
one that I’m currently most interested in is the F5 ARX.
Does anyone have any in production or experience using them? I’m
interested in hearing how well they work, any gotchas, etc.

We mostly want them for the global namespace and the ability to move
files behind the scenes so we can replace NetApps, Windows servers,
and Samba servers without any downtime.

I would welcome pointers to other competing solutions as well if you
are aware of any.

thanks

How about if you install VNC, or use showmypc.com for the last machine? That
would enable you to send commands like that with the click of a mouse.

Re: Dell battery replacement still giving warning

[Jonathan Link]

All that "counter" does is actually do a better job of presenting an
accurate picture of how much battery life you have.  You indicate the
battery lasts for 45 minutes, that's the life of the battery as it is now.
If however, your laptop is indicating that it has 2 hours of life, that's
the counter.  Resetting the coutner will adjust the 2 hours to 45 minutes,
and not the other way around.

Counter?  The battery physically degrades over time. If you're seeing decreased

RE: Windows 2008 R2 - Default NTFS Permissions on new drive

[Crawford, Scott]

Not quite.  You can create a separate process with "explorer /separate". This 
works great in XP with runas for creating an explorer window under a different 
security context.  It still works in Vista/7/2K8 to create a separate process, 
but it still gets created without admin group in the token.

You can't actually do a run-as for Windows Explorer. There is only a single

RE: OT : Which AMD AM3 mobo ?

[Erik Goldoff]

Thanks … I saw the 128mb dedicated didn’t know it fell ‘over’ to shared when
needed.  Sounds like a winner.  I’ve got a gigabyte EX58-UD4P for my i7-920
server box and it has been reliable too.

The integrated graphics performs really well. It definitely isn't the lame
integrated graphics of old. It has dedicated faster memory on the board just
for video and it shares RAM if the needs go beyond that.  Plus if you need
extra super duper graphics it has slots. It has plenty of SATA ports, built
in firewire port in the rear and another header for a front one. It also has
USB3 so it is a little future proof. It also has solid capacitors.

I installed 8 Gb of RAM on it and Win 7 64 bit.

Thanks, I appreciate everyone’s brand recommendation but this one is

What features did you like about the 890GPA-UD3H over others ?

 

For testing I’m leaning on integrated graphics, don’t need to have bridged
monster gaming video cards.  Between 8 and 16gb RAM would be nice, I’d like
to start with 8.

I like Gigabyte. I just built a system for a family member two weeks using
that CPU and am happy with the result.   I used a 890GPA-UD3H

Does anyone have a specific recommendation for a favorite AM3 socket

clear of ?

Dell battery replacement still giving warning

[John Aldrich]

My Google-Fu is failing me today. One of my users told me late last year
that he was getting a warning on his laptop that his battery was reaching
the end of it's useable life, so I bought him a replacement. His new battery
is saying the same thing and is only lasting about 45 minutes at most, even
after several full discharge and recharge cycles. 
Is there a trick to resetting the lifetime counter on these things? I think
he's got a Latitude D-series.

Re: Monday morning not-so-funny

[Kramer, Jack]

Had something like that on campus recently – the physical plant sent an email 
telling us they were cutting power to our building to replace our power meter 
at 6:45am, estimated time of repair about an hour. I show up at 6:20 and power 
down everything, and then sit there and wait for the power to go out – I'm in 
the server room with a battery powered lamp just waiting and waiting. Finally I 
head down to the loading dock at about 7:30 to see what's going on only to find 
the phys plant guys packing up. Their response? "Oh, we were just cutting the 
440V lines – we didn't touch the 110 or 220."

At least it was an excuse to clean up my cabling, right?

Disable UAC or use the File Server / Shares MMCs (elevated, of course) instead

Re: OT : Which AMD AM3 mobo ?

[Hank .]

The integrated graphics performs really well. It definitely isn't the lame
integrated graphics of old. It has dedicated faster memory on the board just
for video and it shares RAM if the needs go beyond that.  Plus if you need
extra super duper graphics it has slots. It has plenty of SATA ports, built
in firewire port in the rear and another header for a front one. It also has
USB3 so it is a little future proof. It also has solid capacitors.

I installed 8 Gb of RAM on it and Win 7 64 bit.

Hi Chaps,

Other than the MS Script Repository can anyone name a good site or place to 
find examples of Powershell scripts? By examples clearly I mean scripts that we 
can use ourselves rather than use our grey matter :)

We have a number of VB and batch files and I think it's time we moved to the 
new age. I'm particularly interested in automating the new user creation 
process in Windows and Exchange.

RE: Windows 2008 R2 - Default NTFS Permissions on new drive

[Michael B. Smith]

You can't actually do a run-as for Windows Explorer. There is only a single 
process per login, so the run-as doesn't work as expected.

Completely about UAC.

Disable UAC or use the File Server / Shares MMCs (elevated, of course) instead 
of Windows Explorer.

Re: Windows 2008 R2 - Default NTFS Permissions on new drive

[James Rankin]

I often find there's some permissions funniness unless UAC is turned off by
GPO. You could maybe give that a bash.

Can you actually get into the security tab on the root of the drive and see
if it errors out there?

Deactive license in VAMT?

[Mayo, Bill]

We are using the Volume Activation Management Tool to do proxy
activations for our Windows 2008 servers.  I have a 2008 (virtual)
server that was activated using this, and had to be replaced with a new
VM.  I am therefore getting ready to decommission/delete this server,
but wasn't sure if I needed to deactive/release the license it had.  We
have select licensing and the counts show up on our MS licensing site.
It would seem logical to me that we would have to deactivate it to
"free" the license, but I don't see anything like that as an option in
VAMT.  I do have an option to delete, but I'm pretty sure that simply
removes the server from the list.  I do understand that you are on the
honor system to some degree with the counts, but hate to have it
continue to show as a used license.

Tool or process for troubleshooting/benchmarking logon times

[James Rankin]

Does anyone know of a tool or process that could be used to test and
troubleshoot the logon process? I'm running on Windows Server 2008 R2 with
XenApp 6 and as far as I can tell the user environment logging that you
could enable in previous Windows versions has been removed, meaning that
figuring out what's going on during a logon and why it is suddenly taking
longer is next to impossible. Process Monitor *could *be used for this, but
the amount of output generated in that tool - particularly at logon time -
makes it a bit less desirable. Is there any way I can generate a log of some
sort that simply tells me what the system is trying to do, and how long it
is taking to do it?

TIA,



JRR
