RE: Network access to 2 seperate domains
Create him a domain account in your domain. Don't use a local account. The domain account will provide Exch and file access. You can provide him the technical solution. If he can't utilize the proper username and pw, he shouldn't be a director. It's not rocket science and he probably has many usernames and pws around the web. If he's using Outlook 2010, he can access MAPI accounts from both Exch servers. This is a workable situation.

Re: Be careful what I wish for
I bought the kit. I've done two migrations so far but am also comfortable with sbs. The Microsoft step by step guide is pretty good. I think that if you have to migrate share point, then the sbsmigration kit is worth it. If they aren't using sharepoint, then I don't think it is worth the extra $. If the company is paying for it, then by all means buy it. Do it a few times in a lab and you'll be fine. You'll find the gotchas. Also use the sbs diva.com site, there is good info there too.

Re: HP Blade server and Win PE 2.0 environment - NIC driver trouble
Still having trouble with this. The blade has 2 NIC ports, and we disable one of them in the BIOS of the blade in question. The Win PE 2.0 environment still reports that there is no network card, tho. Claims that the network card is not in a permissable state. It shows no NIC card at all. I don't deal with the Win PE environment we have, but my co-worker says that the drivers from HP for the NIC in the BL 460 G6 do not support booting into a Win PE environment, so he is trying the generic drivers from Broadcom (the manufacturers of the NIC). My boss thinks that perhaps he might have to configure the Virtual Connect interface (this is the blade administration interface) to play with the settings for the virtual switch that the blade uses. I confess that I am lost at this point (both with this suggestion about re-configuring Virtual Connect, and where to go from here). The end result we want to get to: convert a VM to a physical, but without using the recommended method of using sysprep. This VM is one of those mission-critical ones, but unfortunately my DBAs have not been able to re-create a working version of it, so I *have* to use this VM. And for licensing reasons, I have to move it to a physical machine. But since it's so fragile, I can't take a chance on using sysprep (if the transfer to physical doesn't work, I need turn the VM back on and keep it in production, until I can get it to work. And I can't take a chance that using sysprep won't screw something up. Anybody? I'm almost at the point of taking a full backup using EMC Networker, doing a BMR to the blade, and then doing a repair installation to add the blade specific drivers, so it'll boot and work. I am less than confident about that procedure, too ... I'd much prefer to take an image of the VM using LANDesk, and using Win PE to put it on the blade.

Re: Be careful what I wish for
It was worth it for just one. I rant into what I guess is a common error and it was detailed in an appendix, IIRC. This was 4 years ago migrating SBS 2003 from physical to virtual environment. Well worth the $200 for a one time deal, and for the other option, I think it's worth it, too. On Thu, Dec 8, 2011 at 9:41 AM, Steve Ens stevey...@gmail.com wrote: I bought the kit. I've done two migrations so far but am also comfortable with sbs. The Microsoft step by step guide is pretty good. I think that if you have to migrate share point, then the sbsmigration kit is worth it. If they aren't using sharepoint, then I don't think it is worth the extra $. If the company is paying for it, then by all means buy it. Do it a few times in a lab and you'll be fine. You'll find the gotchas. Also use the sbs diva.com site, there is good info there too.

I backup to a RAM disk. It's much faster that way. At best, that's only a temporary backup. Useful if you're changing a file and need to revert to the previous version rather quickly. Otherwise, as soon as that machine goes down for any reason, your backup starts to fade rather quickly.

RE: Be careful what I wish for
I used SCVMM for my SBS P2V swing. Talk about painless...point, click, let 'er rip, reassign the original IP's to the new NIC. I almost had to pinch myself during the testing because it was too easy. IIRC the only semi-special thing I did was power down the 2nd DC before doing the P2V.

Backup Software Recommendation
I have a very small business customer (~4 users) who purchased a NAS device for backups of their Windows 7 machines. I typically use the Windows 7 backup utility for situations like this, however the customer purchased computers before I began working with them that are running Windows 7 Home Premium, and thus cannot use the Win 7 backup tool since it won't allow network locations. They don't want to spend the money on the Win 7 Pro upgrade. I have used Acronis in the past, however I haven't used the latest release and it looks to be getting mixed reviews. Any suggestions on an affordable piece of software that would work in this situation? It would be ideal if it offered options for file copy backup and a system image. Thanks for the suggestions.

Qnap - Connecting to 2nd ethernet port
We've got a Qnap TS-659 Pro II at a remote facility. It's setup as a NAS with AD integration and it's working fine. One thing we use it for is for Disk-to-Disk-Tape backups as well as PC image storage. This normally happens after hours so the high network utilization isn't an issue but if we need to do these things during regular hours, it is. Is it possible to connect directly from a 2nd ethernet port on a server to the 2nd ethernet port on the TS-659 to isolate the LAN from some of the backup/image traffic? I know I could setup an iSCSI connection but then what's stored there is only accessible through the iSCSI connected server/pc. Other systems could only access the data through the server as a share. -- Bob Hartung Dir of I.T.

RE: Qnap - Connecting to 2nd ethernet port
It would be better to enable port trunking, assuming your switch supports it.

This normally happens after hours so the high network utilization isn't an issue but if we need to do these things during regular hours, it is.

Re: HP Blade server and Win PE 2.0 environment - NIC driver trouble - SOLVED
Got it. We downloaded the HP Smatr Start Scripting Kit, and it included drivers for this blade. My co-worker reports that he was able to get the Win PE environment to work on the blade using the drivers from this kit. On Thu, Dec 8, 2011 at 9:53 AM, Michael Leone oozerd...@gmail.com wrote: Still having trouble with this. The blade has 2 NIC ports, and we disable one of them in the BIOS of the blade in question. The Win PE 2.0 environment still reports that there is no network card, tho. Claims that the network card is not in a permissable state. It shows no NIC card at all. I don't deal with the Win PE environment we have, but my co-worker says that the drivers from HP for the NIC in the BL 460 G6 do not support booting into a Win PE environment, so he is trying the generic drivers from Broadcom (the manufacturers of the NIC). My boss thinks that perhaps he might have to configure the Virtual Connect interface (this is the blade administration interface) to play with the settings for the virtual switch that the blade uses. I confess that I am lost at this point (both with this suggestion about re-configuring Virtual Connect, and where to go from here). The end result we want to get to: convert a VM to a physical, but without using the recommended method of using sysprep. This VM is one of those mission-critical ones, but unfortunately my DBAs have not been able to re-create a working version of it, so I *have* to use this VM. And for licensing reasons, I have to move it to a physical machine. But since it's so fragile, I can't take a chance on using sysprep (if the transfer to physical doesn't work, I need turn the VM back on and keep it in production, until I can get it to work. And I can't take a chance that using sysprep won't screw something up. Anybody? I'm almost at the point of taking a full backup using EMC Networker, doing a BMR to the blade, and then doing a repair installation to add the blade specific drivers, so it'll boot and work. I am less than confident about that procedure, too ... I'd much prefer to take an image of the VM using LANDesk, and using Win PE to put it on the blade.

Initial problem with Issuing CA solved, but other questions arise
All, After staring at the configs in http://blogs.technet.com/b/askds/archive/2009/10/13/designing-and-implementing-a-pki-part-ii.aspx for days, and doing lots of reading and searching, I found the problem. Simple, really, but sometimes the purloined letter will ruin your day. In the example CAPolicy.inf file for the issuing CA, the following line was the problem: LoadDefaultTemplates=0 It didn't strike me for the longest time, but there you go. Removed that line, and it started issuing certs - I see that all of my DCs and the issuing CA itself have gotten certs, and so have about 18 people, out of 250+ staff. So, it's functioning now, and I have a good deal more reading to do to figure out which templates I want to create, etc. The more interesting things to understand are: 1) Why am I seeing the following warnings in the event logs, even though the cert is being issued: Log Name: Application Source:Microsoft-Windows-CertificationAuthority Date: 2011-12-07 22:13:16 Event ID: 80 Task Category: None Level: Warning Keywords: Classic User: SYSTEM Computer: cert.example.com Description: Active Directory Certificate Services could not publish a Certificate for request 19 to the following location on server usdc4.example.com: CN=John Doe,OU=Development,OU=Engineering,OU=Users,OU=ExampleUS,DC=example,DC=com. Insufficient access rights to perform the operation. 0x80072098 (WIN32: 8344). ldap: 0x32: 2098: SecErr: DSID-03150BB9, problem 4003 (INSUFF_ACCESS_RIGHTS), data 0 At least, it looks to me as if the certs are being issued, because certs with user names matching the request numbers are appearing in the 'Issued Certificates' folder in the management console - they are of the type 'Basic EFS (EFS)'. 2) What process is invoking these certs? I have no idea how (just a few) users from such disparate departments and types of machines (desktops and laptops) are getting the certs, especially since I haven't announced anything, and don't have anything in place that requires their use yet. ~ 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

WMI filter help
I am trying to create a WMI filter to apply a GPO to a specific IP address. I have been googling and am so far not able to find anything dumbed down enough for me to copy/paste modify and get to work. There is one existing WMI filter here that applies a range of subnets. I have tried modifying that existing filter to point only to the server I am trying to apply the GPO to, it looks like this: Select * FROM Win32_IP4RouteTable WHERE ((Mask='255.255.255.255' AND NextHop='127.0.0.1' OR NextHop='0.0.0.0') AND (Destination Like '10.3..61.1' ) ) Anyone care to offer suggestions or resources? W2k8 R2 server environment. I simply need to create a WMI filter for a GPO that applies to the server at internal address: 10.3.61.1. may need to add others later, but for now the one will do.

RE: RAMDisk Prevalence? (OT)
This whole conversation reminds me of a backup issue I had with Filemaker server software (I think it was ver 3 when it first came out). The software had a feature we're it didn't flush out changes that it kept in ram, until the ram cache filled. So even though it was backed up nightly, it never flushed out the changes to disk so it was never really backed up. Move ahead two months and a drive failed, so I though Oh will just restore last nights backup. Yea, funny it has none of the changes for the last two months. Call Filemaker, ah, yea you have to run a cmd to flush the memory out to disk. WTF!%!.. yea that was an interesting conversation with my CEO and there support on the phone.

RE: WMI filter help
I am not going to be able to help you skin it the way you want via IP. But maybe some alternatives that come to mind may get you where you are going. Use security filtering on the GPO and only give that specific machine rights to that GPO. So on the scope tab of GPM modify the Security filtering area to only include that machine. Or maybe Item level targeting will help you, although I have never used that.

RE: VPN Applaince (to give Ipad vpn access to Home network)??
You're asking two different things? A client for an iPad exists as a paid app. An appliance for your home can mean many things? What do you currently have for your gateway? FWIW, I have OpenWRT with a openvpn server running at several locations reliably, some of which are used continuously through the day and night and never hiccup. I also have several pfSense appliances and a few RHEL servers running a server as well. Openvpn runs on just about anything...

OT - Looking for new job guidance
I am using my personal email, not my other one on the list. Do not want the big boss man to find out... I am currently an IT manager for a company with 120 employees with a team of 15 IT professionals (internet/ecommerce company). I have been looking at IT manager positions for other companies, but it always comes down to one drawback... they want someone from a larger environment/company. What are some ways I can present myself to say I can do the job? One company said that they have 10 remote locations to support. I have supported five remote locations and said that 10 would not be an issue. I even had companies say no even if the team I would be managing consists of 5 or 6 people. All say that as an individual contributor, I would fit in perfect. But not for a management position for a large company. As much as I probably would not mind, it would be a step back in career progression and pay. But it is something am thinking about. Just looking for a little guidance...

things to include in a vm server template?
Hi everyone! It has been a whileI've been quite busy and haven't had much time to do anything here other than occasionally lurk I'm in the midst of building some Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7 templates for my new vSphere 5 environment.

For instance, perhaps things like: primopdf msinfo a telnet client, such as putty adobe reader (I'm torn on this one because of how many security concerns there are with Adobe Reader, historically, but it sure would be handy to be able to view a PDF on the fly) Portscanner, such as SuperScan or AngryIP I'm curious to hear about your add-ons and tweaks.

Simple, really, but sometimes the purloined letter will ruin your day. In the example CAPolicy.inf file for the issuing CA, the following line was the problem: LoadDefaultTemplates=0 It didn't strike me for the longest time, but there you go. Removed that line, and it started issuing certs - I see that all of my DCs and the issuing CA itself have gotten certs, and so have about 18 people, out of 250+ staff. So, it's functioning now, and I have a good deal more reading to do to figure out which templates I want to create, etc. The more interesting things to understand are: 1) Why am I seeing the following warnings in the event logs, even though the cert is being issued: Log Name: Application Source:Microsoft-Windows-CertificationAuthority Date: 2011-12-07 22:13:16 Event ID: 80 Task Category: None Level: Warning Keywords: Classic User: SYSTEM Computer: cert.example.com Description: Active Directory Certificate Services could not publish a Certificate for request 19 to the following location on server usdc4.example.com: CN=John Doe,OU=Development,OU=Engineering,OU=Users,OU=ExampleUS,DC=example,DC=com.

I have no idea how (just a few) users from such disparate departments and types of machines (desktops and laptops) are getting the certs, especially since I haven't announced anything, and don't have anything in place that requires their use yet. ~ 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 ~ 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

Re: Initial problem with Issuing CA solved, but other questions arise
I have been playing with PKI off and on for about 2 months and thought it was a keeper as well. I am looking at PKI for Direct Access usage. A requirement for Direct Access is a Cert and the ability to control the Cert for both users and machines. Microsoft recommends a local Cert server and against the use of commercial Certs for control purposes. Jon On Thu, Dec 8, 2011 at 7:26 PM, Kurt Buff kurt.b...@gmail.com wrote: Excellent.

Re: Initial problem with Issuing CA solved, but other questions arise
DA/UAG is probably the first project out of the gate for me, after I get to understand templates a bit more. BTW - the lastest post on that blog is Windows PowerShell script for Setting up a CA on Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2 - http://blogs.technet.com/b/pki/archive/2011/12/08/windows-powershell-script-for-setting-up-a-ca-on-windows-server-2008-and-windows-server-2008-r2.aspx Now that looks pretty dang cool.

Re: things to include in a vm server template?
portscanner == nmap, but do you really need that on all of your machines? Probably more useful would be wireshark. Instead, I'd include a utils/tools directory, with the psexec stuff, and probably the gnuwin32 and/or unxutils and/or cygwin stuff installed in it, and perhaps a few miscellaneous tools like windirstat.

It has been a whileI've been quite busy and haven't had much time to do anything here other than occasionally lurk I'm in the midst of building some Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7 templates for my new vSphere 5 environment. I'm close to being done, but am thinking about tools i should include over and above the stock OS install. I'm interested to hear what you guys install when you build servers... For instance, perhaps things like: primopdf msinfo a telnet client, such as putty adobe reader (I'm torn on this one because of how many security concerns there are with Adobe Reader, historically, but it sure would be handy to be able to view a PDF on the fly) Portscanner, such as SuperScan or AngryIP I'm curious to hear about your add-ons and tweaks. I've already got the builds pretty well tweaked for performance, but if you have any specific tweaks that have been helpful, I'd love to hear those too. I used this as a sort of base guide: http://www.jasonsamuel.com/2010/05/07/how-to-build-a-vmware-vsphere-vm-template-for-windows-server-2008-r2/ I made a few of my own modifications, but didn't stray too far from this one.

RE: RAMDisk Prevalence?
Hmm - but seriously, if you were doing Disk-Disk-Tape, why not look at Disk-Ram-Disk/Tape If the service is down whilst you make the backup, then backing up to a RAM disk would be faster than any alternative (provided the source can provide the data fast enough).
