Windows Server 2016 combining network teaming with bridge fails.

$

My goal is to bride two networks together that consists of one gigabit network cards and one 10gb SF+ network card.

I currently have the two gigabit cards teamed together to form one network connection but when bridge the teamed connection to the 10gb network card windows seems to crash.

When I remove the gigabit cards from network teaming and just bridge one gigabit card with the 10gb card it works fine.

So what's the reason why I cannot combine teaming with bridging? and is there a work around?

Thank you in advance.

Configure IIS to relay using smtp.OFFICE365.com

Hello,

I need to setup my IIS SMTP Virtual Server to use "smtp.office365.com" as a smart host. I have followed the instructions as per this link ( https://support.office.com/en-us/article/How-to-configure-IIS-for-relay-with-Office-365-eb57abd2-3859-4e79-b721-2ed1f0f579c9 )  but i am not having any luck.   Upon enabling the settings as per that link, we notice that all emails that come to our iis smtp server remain stuck in the "QUEUE" folder.    I have verified that our firewall is not blocking the traffic. I did a telnet test from our IIS Server to SMTP.office365.com on port 587 and it connects successfully.   

The user credentials that i have punched in under "Basic authentication" tab in the IIS SMTP Server >> Outbound Security settings is a valid E1 mailbox license.   Logging is turned ON but i did not find any LOG entries when i did a search for "smtp.office365.com" in the log files. 


Can someone pls advise, What can be causing the emails to remain QUEUED ?

WSE2016 - Cannot connect to Remote Web Access

$

I have a new server running Windows Server Essentials 2016 and an issue with Remote Web Access. Every week, Remote Web Access will stop working and my clients get the message:

“Cannot connect to Remote Web Access. Please contact the person who manages the server.”

Unfortunately that’s me! When this happens, my immediate response is to repair Anywhere Access by opening the Windows Server Essentials Dashboard, then Set up Anywhere Access, Click to configure Anywhere Access and then theRepair button. However, I first have to restart the Windows Server Essentials Management Service, otherwise the Dashboard will lock up and crash out when I attempt the repair.

It’s unfortunate that it’s a problem that my clients know when it’s ‘down’ before I do, and these weekly phone calls are become tiresome for everyone. 

I’ve found a lot of articles and posts about general Remote Web Access failures, but nothing so far has enabled me to resolve the issue. I’d really appreciate any help.

Internal CA Server and Certificates Installation

We have Configured CA Server Successfully and issued Certificates to our Exchange local Servers and working fine with OWA.

we have 3 Web Servers Connected to HW Load Balancer, for LB we have purchased Certificate for Internet based clients.

But there is HTTP connection is b/w LB and Servers. These servers linked with Microsoft BIZTALK Server.

- For Secure Connection between all 4 Servers What kind of Certificates need to be installed in theses Servers? as this is Server to Server Communication.. For Example in case of IIS may i get one Certificate from CA and install in one server and export/import on all 3 remaining servers?

- How to get Certificates for other services like SQL etc from CA?

Burning audio CDs in Windows 10

Trying to burn audio CD that will require 2 discs.  The first burned well although I got an error message  that said there were errors on 4 tunes and to click on the icon next to the 4 tunes.  As seems often the case with Windows help, it came back with nothing meaningful to suggest.  And as it turns out the 1st CD seems to have burned just fine.  All 4 of the songs in question play just fine. 

For some reason I can't burn the 2d CD.  Tried a new burn with the tunes that would have been on the 2d CD, but continually get a notice that MP can't burn some of the tunes. Clicking on the notice to acknowledge it, ends the burn session.  There is no reason given for this.  Is there a way to override the error notice and burn anyway?  If something doesn't burn, then okay, but there is no reason to cancel the whole session for unspecified errors and no indication of what tunes may be a problem.This kind of meaningless notification is not uncommon with Windows of all versions and it drives us users CRAZY!

Run script when a service restarts - non-failure.

Hey all, I have an old door access software that creates "supervisors" to manage doors. The supervisors are windows services running on server 2k8r2. When you restart the service (which seems to be often) it deletes its text file log. I am looking for a way to copy the log file when the service restarts automagicly. This is a graceful restart and not a failure.

Change in Server update policy

$
0
0
We have a 2008 Server (not R2). The default policy for updates has been to check and inform about updates, but I would choose when to download and install. I know MS mades changes to how updates are applied, etc. toward the end of last year, but I would never have assumed it would apply to servers. Last night our server obviously rebooted. WHY? Looking through the logs I discovered it has downloaded and installed updates and rebooted the server. Going into the settings for Windows Updates sure enough it was on Install Updates Automatically. Really? I can't seem to find anywhere a definite confirmation that this is something MS did without at least informing IT personnel. 

DC keeps switching between Domain Network/Private Network

$

0

Stand-alone DC seems to keep spontaneously switching between Domain Network and Private Network, which confuses QB file server and then users can't have multi-user access.

I see suggestions of ways to force it to Private (or force it to Domain?) but would rather know the root of the problem. See notes this is often connected with virtual servers. This is not virtual.

Saw one suggestion to set adapter dns setting from 127.0.0.1 to it's own IP. Just tried that. Don't know if it will help. Should work either way. Just disable NIC 2 & 3 since only using 1. Numbers 2 & 3 aren't connected anyway.

Would like to know how to catch it. Don't see any Event Viewer errors about "lost connection" and then it reconnects wrong or anything like that. Can't find in logs when this change happens. Would like to see such logs or have an event trigger a task to alert me, so I can gather clues.

Server 2016 Essentials. I let it set itself up very standard. Nothing unusual or other than typical about setup. No other problems. Users aren't losing connection and internet is stable.

(Update: I added a looping batch to echo netsh listing of the type of connection to a log. At least I'll see when and how often.)

Suggestions either on the problem or on catching what's causing it? Thanks.

Primary DHCP failed, how to remove and make another

$
0
0

I had 2 Windows Server 2012 R2 servers acting in concert as DHCP hosts, as per recommendations, however my Primary DHCP server died (not quite bursting into flames, but close), so the secondary is picking up the slack, but sometimes clients seem to be unable to get an ip address, and I'm thinking the half empty failover may be to blame.

How do I forcibly remove the, now defunct, former primary, promote the current secondary (and only) to primary and then add another failover host so I have two again?  Can this be done without massive disruption to my network?
