Updating Windows Server 2016 at a specific time

$
0
0

Hello!

As you know Windows Server 2016 GUI offers just Active Hours to schedule update installations. My goal is to schedule the updates at a specific time -say at 3:00 AM. As far as I understand it should be possible using the following GPO setting:

Nevertheless my server keeps installing updates outside the Active Hours (after 20:00 in my case) so what am I missing here?

Q1: Is it possible to make Windows Server 2016 to install updates (and reboot if needed) at the time that an administrator have defined, NOT at the time the server "wants"?

Q2: I can't set active hours to be more than 12 hours - does it mean that if a server must be online 13 and more hours a day this can't be achieved via GUI (and if Q1 = no this can't be achieved at all)???

Thank you in advance,
Michael

Powershell - find computers that a specific us is logged on

Say I wanted to find all the computer names that a specific user is logged into.  However, I also want to only look at computers that are currently online, not just all the computers in AD.  So I do something like this, combining Get-ADComputer and ForEach-Object along with Get-CimInstance

However, I get an error with Get-CimInstance... see below

$Computers = Get-ADComputer  -Filter {(enabled -eq "true") -and (OperatingSystem -Like "*XP*")} |
    Select-Object -ExpandProperty Name

$Computers | ForEach-Object {
    $User = Get-CimInstance Win32_ComputerSystem -ComputerName $PSItem |
    Select-Object -ExpandProperty UserName
    
    $Obj = New-Object -TypeName PSObject -Property @{
        "Computer" = $PSItem"User" = $User
    }
    Write-Output  $Obj
 }

Error:

Get-CimInstance : The WinRM client cannot process the request because the server name cannot be resolved.

Suggestions?

Domain workstation account reset on server: How to fix?

$

We have an SBS 2011 domain. One of the machine accounts was reset at the server (i.e., the admin selected Reset Account in AD Users and Computers).

Most everything is still working (Redirected Docs/Email, etc.), however, when attempting to access shares configured on this machine from other machine's on the network, the error is "Login Failure: The target account name is incorrect."

I've read that simply rejoining the domain using http://connect is all we have to do, however, I just want to make sure this procedure won't break anything else.

Thank you for your help.

Hi there!

I have 2 servers (1 main and 1 backup)
Both have been installed with the same OS with all Windows Updates Installed.

I tried installing a language pack onto both servers but it fails on one of my servers.

After Progress shows "Installing" for quite some time, it fails. What could be the cause of the failure to install?

we have a server that hosts internal website, and couple of times last night the web server link was not working.

the web guy asked me to check the event viewer error logs, but the only errors I can find are regarding radardt.dll

just what does this error mean?

google points towards SQL, and it sounded like something that could be ignored, but I cannot find anything else.

I'm trying to set up winrm ssl listener using self signed certificate. I know this isn't supported but some time ago I was able to set this up by making some changes to the MachineKeys folder. I can't find the thread that described what exactly needs to be done with that folder to get this working so failing miserable now. Would someone know what needs doing with permissions to get it working?

Applying recent Windows updates appears to prevent HTML help files from displaying correctly when accessed remotely (UNC & network drive)

$

Hi,

This appears to be an issue since applying the recent Windows updates as per below:

Windows Server 2016: KB4103720 / KB5103723

Windows Server 2012 R2 KB 4103725 

The contents display as expected when opening them as a local resource, but when opening from a remote local e.g. UNC path or network drive, the content is not displayed and is replaced with:

This page can’t be displayed
Make sure the web address //ieframe.dll/dnserrordiagoff.htm# is correct 
Look for the page with your search engine
Refresh the page in a few minutes


The CHM files aren't blocked, and were working until the updates were applied.

All previous known fixes to resolve similar issues with display of HTML help files (MaxAllowedZone and UrlAllowList) have been applied to no avail.

After uninstalling update KB4103720 (on a test Windows 2016 server) and a reboot, with no other changes made, HTML help works again as a network resource afterwards.

I haven't been able to confirm with reference the other 2 KB updates as these are production servers for the company I work for.



LAPS - how to login to workstation when a computer is expired or deleted from AD for months?

$

We are going to implement LAPS in our environment. We have thousands of Windows 7 and Windows 10 workstations. There are times that remote workstations haven't connected with domain controllers for months. Then the only way to login to these machines is to use local admin password. After switching to LAPS we would look up the workstations unique password in AD. How would we login to a machine that is expired or deleted from AD for months?

You do not have permissions to access this shared folder and also port 445 is blocked

One of our VPN clients can't map shared folder in one of servers with this message:you do not have permissions to access this shared folder. What we did so far.

1. The same user and same VPN computer can map other servers' shared folders in the same LAN.

2. Other VPN clients can map the same shared folder.

3. Try different user accounts including domain admin to map the same shared folder on the same VPN clinet. Also get this message: you do not have permissions to access this shared folder. 

4. It is not name resolution issue because we have the same problem when we use IP address instead of name. 

5. Net view \\IP\Shaedname, get system error 53.

6. telnet IP 445 is failed to connect.

7. Have tried to disable firewall and anti-virus software.

The computer was working last month. It seems to me this computer or the server has some settings to block this computer to access the server, but only that server. Any ideas how to fix it?

Can't browse anything in Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

Hi,

Need your help and expertise. Suddenly, i can't browse anything in my Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 with IIS7. I tried already three(3) different browsers (IE8, Firefox & Chrome). Before, i can browse (using IE8 & Firefox) both private (LAN) and public (Internet) websites be it via ip address or domain name without any issues whatsoever. In fact, i can't even access the local http website (status in IIS7 is Started) my server is hosting.The only problem occured just yesterday in my server was drive C: got disk full but i was still able to access via RDP the server and free up disk space of 80GB. I tried already to clear the browsser history, disable the add-ons of IE8 and turn-off the firewall. I have NOT tried to reset  IE8 settings, disable  third-party program or service and startup in msconfig as it require reboot of the server. I'm apprehensive to do things i mentioned i have not tried since the server is up and running for 919 days and 17hours. It is why i tried other browsers that i even installed Chrome just to test and troubleshoot the browsing problem.

Thanks

configuring winows time

hi all 

i have in my company 2 appliance fro providing accurate time ,i need to configure my domain controller to sync time with those appliance .

those appliances have not DNS  name they have ip addresses 

in addition I want to use another site like as a 3rd source if the two appliances failed 

so I got this configuration  "w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:"0.time.windows.com,0x1 1. time.google.com ,0X1" /syncfromflags:manual /reliable:yes /update"  from 

https://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/50924.active-directory-time-synchronization.aspx

and typed that way 

"w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:"0.10.200.10.100,0x1 1.10.200.10.101,0x1 2.africa.pool.ntp.org"

but it didn't work 

i tried

"w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:"10.200.10.100 10.200.10.101"

and it worked I did that because it's written in this link https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2003/cc773263(v=ws.10)

manualpeerlist:<peers> – sets the manual peer list to <peers>, which is a space-delimited list of DNS and/or IP addresses. When specifying multiple peers, this option must be enclosed in quotes.

but I don't know what is the use of 0x1 and 1. or 2. so my question how to make 10.200.10.100 is the preferred one and the other ip is standby and the africa.pool.ntp.org as the third options if both appliances didn't work 

although it's mentioned in the following link

There is no default value for this registry entry on domain members. The default value on stand-alone clients and servers is time.windows.com,0x

all i understand about "0x01 SpecialInterval" it makes the computer syncs time 

based on the interval value in this registry and does't use operating system   SpecialInterval"

but I did't understand fall back option even I read it it in 

https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/w32time/2008/02/26/configuring-the-time-service-ntpserver-and-specialpollinterval/

in brief I need how to make the following 

how to make 10.200.10.100 is the preferred one and the other ip is standby and the africa.pool.ntp.org as the third options if both appliances didn't work 

what is"1."that precede the site name "w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:"0.10.200.10.100,0x1 1.10.200.10.101,0x1 2.africa.pool.ntp.org"

what is 0x1 and  fall back option


Event ID 4013 Cannot add another Domain Controller to the Domain. DNS Services will not start on new Domain Controller

I'm trying to retire a old domain controller (PDC) with all AD Roles. I have tried to install 2 new servers as domain controllers, the problem is DNS services do not start or replicate from the PDC after the AD Install. I receive the below message.  If possible I'm trying not so spend a ton of time fixing a trashed PDC.  Was wondering if seizing the AD Roles to a new DC would work.

Event ID 4013

The DNS server is waiting for Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) to signal that the
initial synchronization of the directory has been completed. The DNS server service cannot
start until the initial synchronization is complete because critical DNS data might not
yet be replicated onto this domain controller. If events in the AD DS event log indicate
that there is a problem with DNS name resolution, consider adding the IP address of another
DNS server for this domain to the DNS server list in the Internet Protocol properties of
this computer. This event will be logged every two minutes until AD DS has signaled that
the initial synchronization has successfully completed.
