A while back I had to clean the server - chkdsk - seemed to work ok. After that this problem keeps occurring. One day I noticed that the files - notany directories just files - in the c:\winnt directory were gone except for two of them. I copied the files from another identical NT box in to this server's winnt directory. A day or so later they were gone again. I copied them into the dir again, a day later they are gone. I KNOW that the server does not have any viruses. I can only figure that the server may have a corrupt file system and needs to be cleaned once more. Any suggestions? John Cesta Want to unsub?

RE: rcv unreadable files via e-mail
Title: Message Outlook has a setting in Tools, Options, Mail Format (I believe) In Exchange you can set it as described below... Specifying the Default Attachment Content Format Use the Internet Mail property page to specify whether outbound messages with attachments will be encoded using Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) or uuencode. This option can be specified by e-mail domain. These settings override the default format. Settings configured in client applications can override the default setting and the settings specified by e-mail domain. If the client specifies no content format option and no match is found in the e-mail domain options, the default setting will be used. NoteMessage content should be set for UUENCODE when transferring messages to Microsoft Mail 3.x with Microsoft Mail Gateway to SMTP. Select the Internet Mail tab. Under Attachments (Outbound), select MIME or UUENCODE. Choosing MIME means that all attachments will be encoded using MIME, except when the client software overrides the option. If a MIME message is delivered to a non-MIME-aware client, the attachment may not be usable. Option Description Plain text A plain text MIME body part is generated for the message. If HTML is also selected, Microsoft Exchange Server provides both Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) and plain text in a MIME multipart/alternative message. HTML A MIME body part in HTML is generated for the message. If Plain text is also selected, Microsoft Exchange Server provides both HTML and plain text in a MIME multipart/alternative message. HTML is an Internet standard that enables rich-text formatting such as bold, color, and italic to appear in messages. Binhex Renders the message body as text with any attachments encoded by the BinHex method, which is commonly used in the Macintosh operating system to encode 8-bit data transmitted on the Internet. For more information about MIME and uuencode, see Microsoft Exchange Server Concepts and Planning. For more information about e-mail domain options, see "Specifying Message Content by E-mail Domain" later in this chapter.

RE: has anyone used doubletake successfully?
I used it for exactly that situation. The data transfer is real time and I experienced no data loss in failover testing. The transition took less than a minute (probably less than 30 seconds actually) with minimal hassle reconnecting to the backup machine from the web server (we use separate boxes for IIS and SQL obviously). I looked at one or 2 other products and decided on Double Take bacuse it was the only one that actually worked! I figured that was cause enough to use it. The interface is easy to use, setup is pretty simple and data transfer was quick (even the initial mirror of all data) Ian --- mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Artificial Intelligence: Making computers behave like they do in the movies. -Original Message- From: Heidi Pilewski [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: September 14, 2001 07:36 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: has anyone used doubletake successfully? I'd like to know if you've ever had to failover to the other server and how quickly and smoothly, if at all that went? Also, did you look at any other products or solutions before deciding on Double Take and, if so, why did you decide on Double Take? I understand that my situation may differ but I'm looking at using a web server (IIS) and SQL 7.0 on NT or 2000 as the operating system (depends on when the decisions are made) and data will need to be replicated and if the primary server goes down there should be as quick and smooth as possible a transition to the backup machine. I've had personal experience with NT Cluster server and, for this application, the failover takes too long. We are hoping to minimize transaction loss as much as possible.

This means that you can have more then one sql server running on the same box. All you really need is to name each installation a different name. With SMS you are required to use the default installation or the first installation as the server that holds the sms databases. Usually the default installation is the server name and that is probably why it requires this.
