mhhh wait, don't confuse profile with desktop. You can REDIRECT a profile to a server (this can be done via AD user's properties or via GP). You can REDIRECT the DESKTOP (or documents, images, ...) folder on a server (or network path) via GP. You can CREATE a remote desktop server where people can connect to and all the settings are loaded. Actually is almost the same for your case... WDS is something else which doesn't apply here :)

Hi, No, WDS (Win Deployment Services) is the role which helps you to DEPLOY OSs via PXE (network boot). What you want is called Remote Desktop Service. Clients start up, open a connection on a remote desktop server and they will have their desktop and so on...

If I'm not wrong... you should authorize it first... http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc753329(WS.10).aspx

mhhh lovely dell... go into the bios and DISABLE everything ralated to AHCI. It should be on CHIPSET CONFIG or ADVANCED (actually I can't remember). And set to SATA/PATA or something similar. Then, it should work...

Under admin tools open: FIREWALL WITH ADVANCED SECURITY. From there your can add a program (executable). In this case SQL.exe and any other program related to your comunication. Anyway, I don't think this will improve perfomances, unlucky, as said before, I think the problem is a function or a component which manages the connection...

Hi, First of all: pay attention Second: pay more attention I used WS4 for a period of time... and these are (for me) the most important consideration: 1) WS4 works quite well, IF and only IF your index is up to date, you can find quite everything. 2) WS4 doesn't work well, the main problem is the update of the index: when you do it, is time AND PERFOMANCE consuming. The point is that you COULD use cached indexes, but... they are sooo sloooow. You can search your file manually which is better :) Anyway, I used WS4 on a file server (NTFS) which had more than 100'000 files, but it was running on a storage system which was really perfomant. Returning to your question... You should follow these steps: 1) Create the index on your server. 2) select a GROUP of users (not more than 10), and start the deploy of WS4 3) start perfomance monitor (logging mode) not every second... and run it for a week. 4) check what happened on your server, if there's no impact on perfomances, continue with the deploy (but still with maximum 10 users). Everything depends on HOW MANY files do you have and the I/O of yours Hard drives. Here's a (useful?) link: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc772446(WS.10).aspx It's quite short so... read it carefully. Regarding your last question: I think that the only way is to add the desired path to the index service...

So, now the drive is formatted... and you can use it on a DESKTOP pc, but still nothing on your server... right?

Hi and welcome! Enjoy your stay...

I think you should change the icon on the client side... otherwise the color will be the same...

The point with the firewall is simple: If the port is opened, the communication occurs. If the EXECUTABLE is not excluded, the comunication is permitted, BUT the connection is still monitored. Which is ok, but this may slow down the communication...

Try to uninstall the samsung application, it should remove drivers too. Then, the scanner, should be detected and installed only via WIA drivers... I think...

hi, As said in another post... From 2003 to 2008 many functions are changed, and to maintain backward compatibility, Windows slows down the processing of some function. (Actually it's more complicated but I can't find a better way to explain this). Anyway, check your firewall (already done it?!) and, if you can, DISABLE IPv6. There are two links that I read so far: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CBgQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fdownload.microsoft.com%2Fdownload%2F9%2Fc%2F5%2F9c5b2167-8017-4bae-9fde-d599bac8184a%2FPerf-tun-srv.docx&ei=D15nTsW_FfTR4QTFqKntDA&usg=AFQjCNGdtufM5zlakRrWIW1XK-I_Qbvd2Q And then: http://blogs.microsoft.co.il/blogs/shair/archive/2008/03/13/how-to-improve-iis-performance.aspx Hope this help...

Welcome! I think you could put your blog on your signature :)... well it isn't for commercial purpose... so why not? I would like to check your blog! Enjoy your stay!

Yes but... You should think at the backup... skydrive is already backedup. You should think at the bandwidth... skydrive is hosted on Microsoft's servers so this is not your problem :). You should think at availability... skydrive (should) be more available than a "home made" server, just because it's clustered. You should think at disponibility... skydrive can be used everywhere (also on Windows Phone 7 phones). Your idea works, but pay attention at the points written above :)

There's really nothing more you can do... I suggest you to ask directly to the Dell's forum... I had this problem one time and I never found a solution!

Thanks :)

Hi, Unlucky this problem has been experienced by many people (as you've said). The only thing I can suggest you is to download the driver for the CONTROLLER (RAID)... otherwise, I have no other solution... sorry.

well usually yes... but everything depends on if your DC is a DNS server too... but usually yes.

From what I know no... The problem is inside the hypervisor, you can just have 1 hypervisor (in this case VMWARE).

Of course you can... but not with that settings! As the message says: Actually both IP are yours EXTERNALS DNS which don't know ANYTHING about the other domain. Set the clients DNS servers with IPs of your DNS (internal - DC), you will notice that you can join your domain now :)

SET THE DESTINATION PORT TO 27015. Each client tries to OPEN CONNECTION ON PORT 27015 (because your server is running on that port). ETH1... are others interfaces...

Well... Copy this code in a text file: $Log = "Application" $Computer ="." $ID = "1002" $Type = "Error" ##The above are your standard Event Viewer attributes, to choose the system log, replace the word Application ##To view Warnings or Information, replace the word Error $Objlog = New-Object system.diagnostics.eventLog($Log, $Computer) #$Objlog = $Objlog | Where-object { $_.EntryType -like $Type } #$Objlog.entries | select -last 5000 $result = $Objlog.entries | where { $_.EntryType -like "[$Type]*" } | select -last 2 | out-string ## On the above, you can amend the 'select -last 2 to whichever number of entries you would like to pull back write-host $result As written in the code itself, replace APPLICATION with the event log you need to check. Same thing for ERROR and ID. Save this file as WHATEVER.ps Run it from powershell and notice that you will have an output with the information needed.

Which is correct... but your game IS RUNNING ON PORT 27015. That means: clients open a connection on port XXXXX (ANY) directed to your server on port 27015. Make a try: On a computer which is running NOTHING, open the command prompt and type: netstat -an You will notice nothing special... Now open a browser and point it to google or any other website... retype the command and now you should see something like: TCP 10.0.0.10:49225 94.245.117.45:80 ESTABLISHED Which means that: On protocol TCP there's an active connection (ESTABLISHED) which is pointing to 94.245.117.45 ON PORT 80 (WHICH IS A TYPICAL PORT FOR WEBSERVERS). Now take a look at 10.0.0.10, this is the PRIVATE address of your computer, look at the port number... it isn't 80 but instead 49225. Now open another website and notice that your LOCAL PORT is radomly generated each time you open a connection.

Mhhh I don't know your router so I'm not sure... anyway... There are routers which want mac address in this way: AABBCC... and others: AA:BB:CC... so, try the combination :) Maybe the point is on ETHER TYPE (4th column) it says: "IP" so actually IP is not the MAC ADDRESS. I don't know which options you can choose from... but anyway... give it a try. The rule you entered means the following: ANY connection coming FROM ANY IP on port 27015 and DIRECTED TO 192.168.2.10 on port 27015 will be QoS. I think this is not correct... because the service on your server may be on port 27015 BUT clients don't open connection FROM port 27015... so basically it should be ANY port.

PAY ATTENTION if you are on a productional environment...
