Re: adding a NIC on Win 2k Server
.. Does this mean the server is multi-homed? Kent --- L. M. Rappaport [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Steve and Kent, The problem stems from the fact that what actually happened is this: I got a Starband satellite receiver and had to use the existing, built-in NIC for it. I did that and got it working. Then I bought a NetGear card and set it for the network. It was recognized just fine and works, but it seems to have toasted the network. The server is Win2k Server, the workstations are Win2k Professional, all with all patches and Service Packs. Maybe I should simply remove the workstations from Computers in the server and then rename the workstations and rejoin the domain? When I log on to the domain now, it takes a number of minutes and My Computer hangs. I can't access the shares.

RE: disabling 'connect as'
.. I'm a little confused as to your configuration? Are all the
servers/workstations 2000? RunAS is a service on 2000 which
could be stopped and set to manual to start. However, if the
user has privileges to restart this does no good and why I suggest
a policy to disable. If the user has a valid account he/she
shouldn't have to use connect as or run as if you have security
set properly. The only way to stop reinfecting your servers
is to disable all shares until the users computers are virus' free
which I doubt you can achieve. Users tend to scream when they can't
get to information. Guess I need to hear more information.

The database server connects to the web server via a secondary network card in the web server and on a separate IP network and hence hiding the DB server from the outside world. The web server has 3 sites on it all running different versions of the same site with 3 different versions of our custom built ActiveX component. The 3 sites include - one Live, one customer trial site and one in-house demo/dev site. The customer is testing new developments on the customer trial site, and their customers are using the live site. The sites work fine and then after a while they will slow and eventually stop responding. The server requires a full restart to get it working again, Inetinfo sits near the bottom of the process list not really doing anything and not using a great deal of memory. I cant see anything in the process list that is battering the servers resources. We have regressed any new developments we put into the trial site before these problems started to happen, in case it was any strange code making the server crash. The last weird thing that happened before the sites started playing up, was the web server reported an out of virtual memory error. The websites stopped working, the server then reallocated memory then came back to life, allowing users to access the sites again. One thing we noticed after this is that all dates changed to American format rather than United Kingdom format so we changed these back and restarted the server for good measure. Looking through the Event Viewer there is nothing too unusual in there apart from an error saying the SSL is screwed, it really says: A fatal error occurred while creating an SSL server credential, although the client has a certificate protected site it is not used. Another error we seem to be getting is script timeouts, but these dont correlate with server crashes. We do get lots of CodeRed hack attempts but I patched the server when the hotfix first came out from MS. Does anybody have any ideas? As I am running out of them. Thanks Paul p.s. if the client had a bad connection to the server that dropped regularly, (due to their overloaded network) could that cause a server not to clear sessions and get confused and eventually fall over Im clutching at straws now.

The fact that it physically resides on an NT4 Server means you can't do it, period. I was simply asking if there is a workaround or whether I was missing something.
