  1. Is this a domain or workgroup environment?

    Sounds like it's a workgroup environment...although I have no idea why that would be done when he already has the server OS to create a domain. :)

    yes its a workgroup environment. I thinking of switching to DOMAIN but I have no clue how could that be done. Are there any guides??

    ps. what would be the advantage of using DOMAIN vs WORKGROUP for this kind of network:

  2. I've never heard of anything like that either... Hibernation was meant to be used to act as an alternative to shutting down the computer... sorry...

    yes but still, when dual booting like in my case UBUNTU LINUX and Win2k this option comes in handy. When I do something in linux and then I have to switch to Win2k for some eg.KOTOR2 playing all I do is type

    hibernate -r

    and it hibernates linux and restarts the computer.

    but from Win2k it shuts down the computer and then I have to start it up again. which kinda SUCKS

    still hoping for a way to allow restart instead of shutdown from hibernation

  3. When it asks you for the username, try prepending the domainname...

    DOMAINNAME\USERNAME

    Sometimes windows tries to authenticate with a local machine account which is technically this...

    MACHINENAME\USERNAME

    Also check the event log - the Security section.

    didnt help.

    but I fixed the problem. Had to restart the WORKGROUP service on client machines. Apperantly they keep credentials and when U change the passwords of one of the remote computers the credentials dont match and thus the need to restart WORKSTATION service to erase the cache.

    Correct me if I am wrong

    ps. I found about the fix because I could easily access network drivers thru linux. So I knew there was something wrong with Windows XP/2000

  4. 1. Check the NTFS permissions on the DCOM object itself

    2. If you can find the AppID for the CLSID listed in the event viewer, you should be able to find what application it is and try re-registering the .exe's in DCOM.

    3. Check the DCOM NTFS permissions specific to the application.

    Re-read the thread and found out that the above mentioned tips I have yet to try. Perhaps that will fix the error.

    But how do I get about doing them?

  5. if I set the password on Win2k3 server for user BILL which has ADMIN priviligies I am no longer able to access the SERVERS network drive thru LAN. Because when I try to connect from a client Win2k + gugelmayer SP4 it asks me for a password, and then I type in the correct username and password but it will always say that the password / username is invalid. But the pass/user is 101% correct. And yes I checked the caps lock.

    So for now Ive disabled the password on the user BILL.

    ps. On Win2k3 the ADMIN account has password.

  6. On the Windows client you would connect via command line using mstsc /v:servername /console and that will connect you to the console session of the server.

    just out of curriosity, is there a GUI mode in which I could do the same as with the above command line? I find it really strange that MS wouldn't include such an option esspecially since Win is all GUIiiish and also my UBUNTU Linux has a GUI option for that

  7. Looks clean to me, at least regarding this issue - does the same problem occur when the laptop is installed from a clean Windows source?

    Always wondered that myself, I quess I will have to try it sometime. But I doubt anytime soon. Since my primary OS on the laptop now is UBUNTU LINUX. Have decided to throw myself at LINUX.

  8. Was the installation source modified in any way before Windows was installed on the laptop? Also, are we talking about a third-party battery monitor, or the built-in Windows "power" icon?

    Using nLited slipstreamed Win2k w/USP5 RC1

    Using the default BUILT-IN WINDOWS power icon

  9. Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netlogon

    Value: DependOnService

    Data: DNS (add under any other values listed here)

    Just did that. But I still recieve the error.

    In the meantime I'm having another problem:

    Eversince I installed DNS SERVER service on Win2k3 computer and naming the PRIMARY DNS SUFFIX to "workgroup.org" so the full computer name is "server.workgroup.org"

    I've been getting this in IE and FF when I haven't type the full name of the address:

    ex.: google instead of www.google.com

    How to get rid of this?

  10. Tried VICOMSOFT DHCP server. It works as it should. But the problem is memory footprint.

    Just the DHCP SERVER SERVICE uses about 20MB RAM and 19MB of VIRTUAL MEMORY. I already emailed VICOMSOFT for this huge memory footprint but as usual they have not replied.

    DOes any1 know if theres a way to decrease the memory footprint?

    ps. As for problems I've mentione in post No. 3#

    The machine is working fine now. It was so slugish because both NIC cards were set to automaticly determine speed. And now I've set them manually to 100MB/s FULL DUPLEX and the sistem is very responsive now.

    Any1 know why this would make the sistem so slugish?
