Hello. 

I have a Windows Server 2008 R2 server. The server have a scheduled task to start a little program called Unison (sync tool). The trigger is set to run at startup. This is working well. The scheduler sucessfully start this program on boot of the server. But every day, at 06:07 the process is stopped. It looks like the scheduler is stopping it for some reasons...

Here is a XML dump of the scheduler:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16"?>

      <Arguments>-socket 22</Arguments>
      <WorkingDirectory>C:\Visma\uq\local</WorkingDirectory>
    </Exec>
  </Actions>
</Task>

and here is the event that is logged when the process have stopped:

Task Scheduler successfully finished "{37354e59-bc82-49aa-9eea-04fb3b974c26}" instance of the "\VismaSynk Unison" task for user "RADE\RAINTVAARYR$".

The problem began for som weeks ago. Before, this was working without stop. I have rebooted the server, and eaven re-created the scheduler. Some tips?

Hotfix KB2830145 can't be installed on any system with newest updates installed, SID S-1-18-1

Hello together,

I just replaced one of my domain controllers with a Windows Server 2012 R2.
Now two other Windows Server 2008 R2's(not DC) have a problem, because they have to resolve the new SID S-1-12-1. It is a known issue and Microsoft provides the hotfix KB2830145. 
The problem is, if I want to execute the hotfix on a completly updated client or server, the hotfix hangs. If I execute the hotfix on a client that hasn't done updates for a half year, the hotfix is installed in 30 seconds. 
I also took an updated client and uninstalled the updates from the last half year. But the issue persists. On some clients it worked, after we tried it very often or if we waited for 12-14 hours. But we cant do that on a server.

By the way:
I tried this on W7 Enterprise, Server 2008 R2, W7 Home out of office, with and without domain, offline and online, with a clean W7 without Software and without security software. I didn't found any really helpfully information in the eventviewer or logs.

I would appreciate any help, thanks in advance

Error Code [43] Tried the Subscribed Solution // Still Failed

Hey there, Thank you in advanced for reading my post.

I followed the instructions on this post: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc725873(v=ws.10).aspx

Ever since I got this microphone it never seems to be recognized on my computer. I spent a whole day trying to make it work and then after I jiggled the wires around and stuck it in a glass jar to stop moving it worked. A month later I broke the jar on accident and the next day when I tested the microphone it is back to not working. I have uninstalled the device and restarted my computer but whatever I try nothing works. Now when I plug it in my laptop doesn't even pick it up and give me the error code, because this error has been since day one I feel as though it is not something wrong with the microphone its self but maybe the ports? Yet they work fine on any other device? Please reply with a solution. 

Error code displayed: 

"Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43) A request for the USB device descriptor failed."

Windows Server 2008 / File Server / Network Drive Slowness

$

Dears,

I have a Windows Server 2008 with installed File Server service.

All the [D:\] Partition is shared on the network for some users, which are about 20 users.

They are using it to share working on AutoCAD 2010/2014, and mostly files are linked; so any action causes opening of 50 files in the session per user in average.

The network speed is 1000Mbps.

The problem is the network drive (Which is our sever) is getting very slow after usage of 1 hour, then the users start asking me to restart the server; because the file access is getting deeply slow.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Khalid Rehan..

How monitor TX and RX on PERFMON for Virtual Network Adapter BASP ?

I have an Virtual Network adapter created with Broadcom.

This virtual interface named "BASP Virtual Adapter" and it is visible on Perfmon in the category "Pace Pipe" but not in the category "Network Interface".

It is problematic because Tx and Rx (Bytes received/send in second) is only available in "Network Interface" which show only physical network adapters.

Anybody have an idea ?

Thanks

Removing "Everyone" group from "Access this computer from Network"

Hi All

We have recently identified through security assessment that "Everyone" group is present under 

Local Security Policy >> User Rights Assignment >> Access this computer from Network. We have decided to remove this group as it allows malicious low privileged user to access the system.

Before removing this group using Domain Controller security Editor for the entire estate, I removed it from 2 test application servers that are networked to talk to each other. I haven't noticed anything breaking so far.

OS -windows 2012

Are there any pre-checks that we need to perform?

Please share any experience/advise in removing the group through Domain Group Policy.

I have a question about SHA1 certificate support in Windows 7 and higher

$

The use of the signing algorithm SHA-1 is being deprecated in favor of the newer and more secure SHA-2 algorithm. Effective January 1, 2016, Windows (version 7 and higher) and Windows Server will NO longer trust new code that is signed with a SHA-1 code signing certificate.  is it possible to download the specific version of OSwithout SHA1 support? As far as I have tested, the latest Windows 7 & 8 releases supports SHA1 as well as SHA2.

Cannot install FSRM on RODC on Windows SErver 2012 R2

Hi,

We are currently unable to install FSRM role service on a Windows Server 2012 R2 RODC. We have tried to install both from Server Manager and from Powershell, it shows error "The operation cannot be completed, because the server that you specified requires a restart".

There are some discussions that it is necessary to install FSRM before promoting server to a RODC, but this is not an option, because we have to many RODCs..

Are there any other solutions?

root domain credential cache in subdomain

$

Hello all,

we have a root domain with some subdomains. All administrative credentials are placed in the root domain (also the accounts, we need for the subdomain to access via RDP the servers)

Example: to login via RDP on the Server server1.subdomain1.company.intra i need the rootdomain account admin_tear2@company.intra.

Now my problem. sometimes the vpn session between the DC of subdomain1 and rootdomain is offline and no admin can login on a server of subdomain1 (because the root domain is not accessible)

My question: is there a possibility to cache root domain credentials in the subdomain? Or any other ideas?

Kind regards Boris
