RE: USB 2 or ESATA boot drive
I've got more than 20 different USB 2.5 enclosures sitting at this desk alone (some are no-name, others branded: WD, Seagate, Lacie), and they've worked on every laptop I've ever owned except the Dell D600. That includes a Seagate 12.5mm 1TB model. I think that problem was solved years ago.

It's not a problem that can that can be solved within terms of the spec.[1] I've encounter a few systems over the years that didn't like a given enclosure. It's fairly random -- which makes sense, since we're treading in the margins of error outside the spec.

Re: hosted ftp with a registered domain name
I do this very thing with an inexpensive domain/host account with ace-host.net ... around $120 per year, and unlimited subdomains. All you'd need to do is create a unique subdomain off your main domain name. If my domain was goldoff.net, I could setup customer1.goldoff.net, customer2.goldoff.net ,etc ... Ace-host.net takes care of the DNS additions of the subdomains, and the ftp management utility will let you add even more flexibility than that. Feel free to contact me offline if you'd like more details. On Tue, Mar 29, 2011 at 1:15 AM, Jonathan ncm...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all, I have a friend who asked me if this was possible.

Adobe Illustrator (CS3) crashes on save
Our marketing guy asked me to take a look at his computer as it keeps crashing when he's trying to save an Illustrator file. He says it allows him to complete whatever he's working on, but when he goes to save, it starts to save it in a temporary space (NOT where he told it to save) and then crashes the app. We did double-check that the program was fully updated so that's not the issue. There is no dedicated temporary partition as I've read that Adobe CS seems to want. Should I put in a small hard drive for this and point Adobe to it, do you think? Any other ideas?

Adobe CS products like to have what they often call a 'scratch partition'. A dedicated partition that they can go wild on all to their own. It certainly helps with performance if you are hammering the program hard but it is not needed. Where it is pointed to will be on the preferences menu..but delete the preferences per my previous email is still the first thing to do.

Both openDNS and K-9 are great and I have been using them for several months. However, I have also looked at the paid/subscription software and haven't found one that allows for restricting the internet to a few sites based on the hour of the day. It would be great if there is a product that would allow facebook/games/etc for certain hours of the day and leave internet connectivity open for other sites for homework/school research for the rest of the day. For facebook, my rule is simple.. You are allowed to use facebook if I know the password. You lose access the day you change the password and don't let me know about it...

One could argue that SATA is as much SCSI as it is AT Attachment. Your optical SATA drive almost certainly uses the SCSI MMC command set, for example. And then there's iSCSI.

RE: Adobe Illustrator (CS3) crashes on save
Just asked. He says that in the past when this problem happened, he could create a new file and just draw a box and try to save and it would exhibit the same behavior. So far, after printing a test page on the printer, it seems to be working, but it seems strange that Illustrator would have problems because the primary printer wasn't available or something. I don't see a connection between not being able to print to a network printer and saving a file. -Original Message- From: Bill Humphries [mailto:nt...@hedgedigger.com] Sent: Tuesday, March 29, 2011 9:26 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Adobe Illustrator (CS3) crashes on save Is this one specific file?

Re: OT - Parental Controls
Had a teacher once, she told the story of assumptions. She was driving down the freeway and her 7 year old daughter asked, Mommy, what's sex? After she made sure she had firm control of her car she said she asked, Why do you want to know dear? Her daughter replied, It says here on this form, sex, M or F. Her lesson at the time, make sure you are answering the question asked, otherwise you may be giving answers to subjects not yet brought up. As it is, my kids computers are in the main room next to mine. I don't have tracking software or restrictions on them. I shall monitor and deal with the questions as they come up.

Re: RE: Multiple Olk 2010 Signatures / Quick Parts
Man, OLK 2010 is step in the wrong direction. So, I bit the bullet and created a ton of 'QuickParts' for my canned messages, and just left 1 signature for my actually signature. This is how MS wants you to use Outlook by design. Now, intermittently, I am noticing that if you insert a QuickPart, and then insert your signature, Outlook will remove the QuickPart. Not cool at all. So, if you try to resurrect it by going back in re-inserting the QuickPart, it will remove your signature. There are so many other annoying bugs and limitations I am finding with Outlook 2010, I am seriously debating whether I even deploy it at all.

RE: OTish: SSDs and cool PCs
40GB at US$89. Wow. The new SSD doubles sequential write speeds from its second generation X25-M drive to 220MB/sec sequential writes. The drive simply maintains the read throughput rate of the X25-M at up to 270 MB/sec Is that pretty good in terms of SSD?

Flash install and/or update via GPO
Greetings! In the past few weeks, with much assistance here (thanks!), I had a GPO which would update Adobe Reader 9.4 and JRE 6. Just before it went into production... 1. Both products released new updates. The Adobe Reader, due to the way the issue patches, would not update to 9.4.2 in my testing room. I had much better luck going to one which would install Reader 10.0.1. (The JRE 6_23 to JRE 6_24 worked fine!) 2. Updates to Flash, both for Mozilla (etc) and for IE, were also released. This is not working... I've filled out the nag forms from Adobe and have downloaded the MSI files for both versions of Flash. Thing is, I can't get them to install via GPO... After the initial failure, I tried the MSI files on my own desktop. They failed, but they said the product (and earlier version of Flash) was already installed. It did uninstall them for me, though... After a reboot, the MSI files then installed Flash (is it?) 10.2.153.1 on my PC, both the browser version and the active-x version. Tried new GPOs... No luck! None of the machines to which I've linked the GPO and then rebooted 2-3 times have Flash! I've tried opening the MSI files both in the Reader Customization (out of despiration; I kinda figured it wouldn't work for Flash) and in Orca. In Orca (which I really do not understand completely), I can only save Flash MSI as an MSI. I tried running an Orca-modified Flash MSI, and it said the .CAB data was missing. (Sure enough, the modified MSI files here about half the size of the original MSI.) Back to working with the orginally-downloaded MSI files... For the latest attempt, in the GPO Management app, Group Policy Results, I get Changes to software installation settings were applied successfully. Look at the PC in question... In the MS Events, there are no events in System. For Application, I get the same Changes to software installation settings were applied successfully. Any additional pointers for Flash installs and updates via GPO? Thanks... -- Richard D.

RE: Flash install and/or update via GPO
First with ORCA you don't want to modify the msiyou want to create a transform for the msi. Then store the two together and on the advanced settings for the gpo (as you create it) apply the transform. On the boxes that have 9.x on them you are probably better of using the exe with a script and using the uninstall switches with that. That seems to be what most people have the best luck with.

You generally need to add the new MSIs to the same GPO that installed the older versions. The new package should then show in the GPEDIT GUI as upgrading the older package. Is this the case for your setup? I tried running an Orca-modified Flash MSI, and it said the .CAB data was missing. You generally don't want to save a modified MSI. You want to generate a transform (MST) and then apply that transform to the original MSI during installation. This can be done using the Modifications tab for GPO deployments. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin

Win7 w/SP1 offline sync gives Access Denied
Anyone else seeing this problem, or successfully syncing their offline files using a Win7 SP1 system in a domain? User logs onto Win7 non-sp1, offline sync of files works fine. Machine gets updated to SP1, same user (no changes) logs onto Win7 with SP1, offline sync throws access denied errors on all files. Log off, take the same user account (same profile, etc) back to a non-SP1 machine and offline sync works fine. We have quite a few Win7 systems now that have SP1, and are getting the same symptoms across multiple machines. I've tried tons of stuff, including changing the back-end server from WS03 R2 to WS08 R2 SP1, taking DFS out of the equation, changing paths from DNS names to netbios names to IPs, removing ABE, setting ownership to the user, and setting both NTFS and share permissions to full control all the way down the tree on the server to Everyone. As best I can tell, this is a client-side issue, but I'm not sure what else to look at. There are a few policies that control offline file behavior, and although nothing has changed from our non-sp1 setup, I'm happy to change something if it would help. We're about to open a PSS call, but I'm fishing for other ideas as well. Searching around, I'm just not seeing other people reporting this problem.

LSA can't authenticate to itself? (LsaSrv event 6037)
Had a weird one show up in the logs of one of our stand-alone PCs. I don't really expect anyone knows what this means (not even Microsoft), but I thought it might be useful to report for the archives if nothing else. Anyway: Log: System Source: LsaSrv Event ID: 6037 Level: Warning Category: None Description: The program lsass.exe, with the assigned process ID 652, could not authenticate locally by using the target name host/\\ABCDE20. The target name used is not valid. A target name should refer to one of the local computer names, for example, the DNS host name. Try a different target name. As near as I can tell, that means that something running inside the LSASS.EXE process failed to authenticate itself. The neat thing is that, as I understand it, LSASS is the process responsible for authenticating things. Local Security Authority Subsystem. Yah? So it can't talk to itself? :) ABCDE20 has been changed, of course, but the real name of the system does appear in that position. It's the short name of the system -- there's no DNS domain name. Indeed, the system has no network connections at all. The Microsoft Loopback Adapter is installed - had to do that to work around some other bugs. Vista Biz SP1, if that matters. I suspect this will go in my ever-growing folder of goofy Vista bugs. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin

URGENT: Interrupt chkdsk, not on boot drive
I have a bit of an urgent problem. I have a Win2003 server, and I needed to run CHKDSK on the X: drive (a SAN drive that we use to write disk backups to). So it is NOT running CHKDSK the boot drive, or the drive where programs are installed; the X: drive is just for disk backup (EMC Networker). X: is, however, like 2 TB in size ... mostly empty, tho, as the backup to disk has not been working. (mostly meaning maybe 200-300G, probably less, used space). Chkdsk has been running for like 75 minutes, and I have no way of estimating how much longer it will take. So my questions: 1. There's no way to interrupt it, except to power down. But will it corrupt the machine? I don't really care if the X: drive is corrupt, as long as it boots up and the Lotus Notes services run (none of which are installed on X:, everything is to drive E:, a separate SAN drive). 2. If I do power it down, will it insist on running CHKDSK when it comes up? I need to get the server back into production, and can't really wait for CHKDSK to finish on that drive.

Re: URGENT: Interrupt chkdsk, not on boot drive
1. Nope. Your drive will most likely be in an interesting state. 2. As it was interupted it will most likly flag the drive with a 'dirty bit'. Depending on the condition it 'may' let you skip the recommended chkdsk once on the way up but I would not plan on it. If you are desperate, there is a kb article on how to disable the 'dirty bit' flag for chkdsk but it seriously is not a thing to do lightly. You may try downing the system, then have the SAN people pull that LUN off the server. The server will be upset but most likely be ok. Please note that there is risk to this suggestion and from 'some guy' on the internet. While we have on occasion had to do similiar here with a Hitachi SAN, your experience may not be mine and I'd rather not be 'that guy' on the Internet if something does go wrong. :) On Tue, Mar 29, 2011 at 5:12 PM, Mike Leone oozerd...@gmail.com wrote: I have a bit of an urgent problem.

Re: URGENT: Interrupt chkdsk, not on boot drive
I don't believe it will corrupt your Windows instance, since Windows isn't installed on the disk chkdsk is currently running on. Usually, when you boot and the dirty bit is set, you're given the option to skip the disk check. Since this is a volume mounted separately (is it iSCSI) I think the worst case is that you lose the volume. None of this comes with guarantees. :-) On Tue, Mar 29, 2011 at 8:12 PM, Mike Leone oozerd...@gmail.com wrote: I have a bit of an urgent problem.

I will try and get there at 6AM, and if it's not finished, I will power down the server, unpresent the drive, and power back up. It *should* just go into Windows (complaining the whole way, no doubt). If the drive isn't there, it should just not run CHKDSK at all, and go into Windows (Safe Mode?). Yes? What we also may do is clone the *other* SAN drive (the one not being CHKDSKed), just in case Windows does get very unhappy. However, I dunno how long that will take. But we're all agreed that Windows itself shouldn't be affected. The server will complain about the disk drive not being there, but should start normally. What a screw up ... wish I had some way to estimate how long it will take to check that much free space (about 1.6TB, I believe). RIght now it's been at Checking free space for 90 minutes. If I knew it would take less than 12 hours, I would worry less (because then it would be done by 7AM) ...

Hitting ESCAPE during boot up? Since this is a volume mounted separately (is it iSCSI) Fiber Channel, from an HP SAN. I think the worst case is that you lose the volume. Don't care (too much) about losing this disk volume. It's losing the C: and D: that is terrifying me None of this comes with guarantees. :-) I know. As I say, I'm an idiot ...

I have a Win2003 server, and I needed to run CHKDSK on the X: drive (a SAN drive that we use to write disk backups to). So it is NOT running CHKDSK the boot drive, or the drive where programs are installed; the X: drive is just for disk backup (EMC Networker). X: is, however, like 2 TB in size ... mostly empty, tho, as the backup to disk has not been working. (mostly meaning maybe 200-300G, probably less, used space). Chkdsk has been running for like 75 minutes, and I have no way of estimating how much longer it will take. So my questions: 1. There's no way to interrupt it, except to power down. But will it corrupt the machine? I don't really care if the X: drive is corrupt, as long as it boots up and the Lotus Notes services run (none of which are installed on X:, everything is to drive E:, a separate SAN drive). 2. If I do power it down, will it insist on running CHKDSK when it comes up? I need to get the server back into production, and can't really wait for CHKDSK to finish on that drive. Any help REALLY appreciated, thanks.

Re: URGENT: Interrupt chkdsk, not on boot drive
Who knows how long a chkdsk of a SAN (or any) volume might take? If someone tells you before it ends, and they're right, please ask them if VCU will make it to the championship game next Monday. (I don't want to know if they're going to win it all. I want to watch that much live.) I'm a bit late to this party. Did you ever state what the conditions were that led to running chkdsk in the first place?

Re: URGENT: Interrupt chkdsk, not on boot drive
Don't hate me, don't kill me, don't blame me, and definitely don't quote me, but... Restart your server. If it's only a problem on the SAN LUN, then your boot volume should be OK. I don't have any experience with Networker, but does the backup service run on the same physical server we're talking about?
