Hello. I need to bind to my Active Directory server. I use JXplorer. I can log in using cn=Administrator,dc=...., but I can not login using cn=Myuser,dc=... User Myuser is member of DomainAdmins and has delegated all required permissions. I can log in with Myuser via ldp.exe on local server machine, but I can not do it remotely. Where is the problem? Are there any remote access permissions?

Hey, I just joined the forum, and specifically looking for Windows Server 2008 help. Regards.

I am looking to install "Windows Server 2008", O/S on 64 bit So, I am asking which is the best Motherboard? Any specific brand? Make sure, it should support all drivers for "Windows Server 2008", O/S on 64 bit and should have excellent performance.

I tried to search for such an issue but have had no luck finding answers that cure the issue. We have an array of XP clients that cannot join the domain offered by the Server 2008 box. I can get Windows 7 to join the domain, but not any XP machines. I have tried manually setting the DNS server on the client machines to reflect the IP on the same subnet they get an IP from; I can ping the domain from client machines and receive replies. I cannot figure out why they won't join the domain. It errors with cannot join domain.local. Network path not found. Many forums blame DNS, but if that were the case, why would the client be able to ping the server? Doesn't make any s…

I am trying to have some Windows 2008 servers out on the internet through http/https My existing 2003 servers are working fine and when connecting to the LAN they work fine too. However what I am finding is that when I am connecting from the internet i am not getting any response from the clients. I found that when looking at the network monitor and looking at the traffic from these clients I am getting things like this: 146 12:03:22 PM 9/17/2011 14.5766450 svchost.exe 203.173.163.38 WIN2K8-RDS TCP TCP:Flags=......S., SrcPort=34373, DstPort=MS WBT Server(3389), PayloadLen=0, Seq=1503735608, Ack=0, Win=5840 ( ) = 5840 {TCP:1, IPv4:8} 149 12:03:22 PM 9/17/2011 1…

I have Windows Server 2008 x86 installed. I installed Active Directory with DNS, created a new forest and see AD and DNS are working sympatico after a few failures (always happens after it's first installed, not sure why). I installed DHCP Server and see client machines are able to receive an IP lease. However, once I install Routing Acesses so the client machines can access the Internet, DHCP no longer provides IP leases. There are no DHCP errors logged to ascertain the cause. If I install DNS without AD, install DHCP and Routing Access, all clients work flawlessly, even with DHCP Reservations created. I want to use Active Directory though and it should work, yet it j…

Hi all, I have had an extensive Google search for an answer but I can't seem to find the right documentation for help. Also, as per the rules I have searched the forum itself for an answer, but no luck. Box details: At work we have a Dell PowerEdge T110 (box details here) running Win Server 2008 with Hyper-V. Hard drive wise, it is sporting a mirrored RAID between 2 drives. The issue: My boss wanted to install a 1TB SATA drive to run separate from the RAID as extra storage for non mission critical data. I have since purchased and installed this hard drive into the T110. On boot, the POST shows that the HDD is plugged into the SATA0 port. However once in the UI …

Situation: We are working with a bank that has a primary corporate identity website, and each bank branch has their own mini-website residing within a folder of the primary website. For example, www.corporatesite.com/bankbranch1 for one bank branch and www.corporatesite.com/bankbranch2 for a different bank branch. Currently you must use the full path to get to the website of each bank branch. These bank however wish to have their own domain names that resolve only their mini-website. Meaning we want www.bankbranch1.com to resolve the same as www.corporatesite.com/bankbranch1/. What We Have Tried: We tried setting up IIS to point to the www.bankbranch1.com domain to th…

Hi, I am trying to deploy Windows 2008 R2 for my client, they have over 500 staff and want to use 1 server as their DC/DNS. As I understand it seems there is a limitation for Users on each 2008 servers, up to 500 per DC(Based on SID). I would like to ask, is that information right or I could add more than 500 users on one DC? I believe it would be good to add: 1: They do not have any other servers to be used; 2: Virtualization might be a possibility; ( Currently they consider, bare-metal server installation) Thanks for your responses beforehand

Basically I have a project I need to do but I am a but fuzzled on which Audit policies I need to set by these standards " Keep a log file of user caused events (logon, folder/printer access etc.) that take place on the server (you will need to configure audit policies and demonstrate Failed/Success events to your lecturer). Use the following criteria to make your decisions when auditing: Record unsuccessful attempts to gain local or network access to Server Record unauthorized access to the files that make up Department Data For billing purposes, track printer usage. Keep a record of actions that an administrator performs to track unauthorized changes on Server.…
