SCM Database locked, services will not start on 2008 R2 with static IP
We have Server 2008 R2 Standard that runs Exchange 2010, Blackberry Enterprise Server and Backup Exec 2010 R3. When we reboot the Server, not all the services will start that are set to automatic. This is causing Exchange, Remote Desktop and other things not to work.
Did some searching and found that the SCM Database is locked. Running the command "sc querylock" shows IsLocked as TRUE.
This only seems to happen when a static IP address is set. When I change it to DHCP, all the services start normally. I set a DHCP reservation for the MAC address of the Server.
I tried applying the registry fix listed here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2004121 - with the "DependOnService" entry, but that did not resolve the issue.
Also, when we reboot - we are getting a unexpected shutdown message each time.
Any ideas?

Service not start Access Denied, Software Protection, Event Logs,
Hi Guys
Have a windows 2008 R2 SP1 Standard server that was reporting Non Genuine version.
A college of mine tried a few fixes and was unable to fix this include a repair of the server.
I was able to remove the message by just uninstall Sophos Anti-virus. I have had a similar problem with Bit Defender.
Unfortunally the system now has other problem.
Unable to do windows update.
Event log service will not start Access Denied
Software protect service will not start access denied.
Opening MMC or other windows app reports Publisher unknown.
I have run sfc /scannow as well as reimporting catroot2 and cat root folder. I also used process monitor to locate event log folder causing with Access denied and change the writes to this folder. Unable to start event log or Software protect.
If anyone has any other idea on how to fix this I would like to hear.
Thanks
Craig
See link for Catroot resolution and Process monitor task.

irql_not_less_or_equal windows 7 blue screen caused by server settings?
Help Please,
I work for a school that has 3 seperate buildings. At one building, I have 50+ netbooks running Windows 7 that all get a BSOD error when attempting to log in. I get the message when both wireless and hard wired.
This is the message:
IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
STOP: 0X000000OA
I have tried to following fixes:
1. Updating NIC Drivers and also rolling back drivers
2. Updating every driver I could think of
3. Installing all Windows Updates
4. Selecting "Last Known Good Configuration"
5. Re-imaging from the original image they were made with.
6. Clean install of just Windows 7
NONE worked!!!! Note: These computers also work fine in both of the other buildings and have worked fine for the past 2 years in this building. Also, the previous tech manager had the same problem with 50+ netbooks at a different building last year. After 6 months of them being down he said oh I fixed the problem but never told anyone what he did. He has since left on bad terms and left nothing about what he did for 3 years.
So... After trying all of those fixes and based on what I believe would make sense. I have determined the cause has to be from a network or server issue. Problem is I have no idea where to look. Something had to have been changed over the summer that caused this problem.
Could this problem be caused by our Wireless Lan Controller?(I don't think so because they don't work when wired either) Could I be having an IP conflict issue? What setting could cause a BSOD in a Windows Server 2008 R2 environment. I really have no idea where to begin. I am completely new in the field with no formal training, just quick learning and a grasp on the technical side of things. So please elaborate as best you can.

0x80050035 trying to access files on server after resume of Windows 7
Laptop running windows 7 Enterprise x64 SP1.
Files on server (running Windows 2003 Standard X64) were accessible before system suspended / hibernated. After resume, get path not found error from explorer or when trying to save open files from application.
PING resolves the servername Ok and replies in 4 miliseconds.
Remote desktop can resolve servername and connect to the server OK..
Explore can access the shares and files on the server using the server's IP address but not using its name.
Reboot always resolves the issue.
I feel certain this must be a well known issue but can't find the answer.
thanks

Domain Controller Best Practice Setup Checklist?
Does any use, or know of any domain controller best practice setup checklists?
I want to put together a list really for my own benefit - something that I can keep on file and refer back to from time to time.
I'm particularly interested in any 'notes from the field' dc checklists also.
Important things to do or consider such as:
Partition sizes – C: drive and D: drive
Drive configurations – C: drive o/s, D: drive data
Exchange database location

Convert Dell OS FAT32 Partition to NTFS System Reserve
I received a PowerEdge T310 Dell with a RAID 1 setup. Dell already prepared the HD and no OS. I installed SBS 2011 on it just to find out I cant't do a BMR. I'm finding out it's because of Dell's FAT32 partition. I cannot reinstall the OS because it's now in production. Is there a clean way to delete the Dell 39MB OEM partition, the 2GB OS partition and just leave the C: partition that the SBS 2011 is installed on. I know it won't boot so what is the answer to solve my problem?
Thanks!

ABE not working
Hi,
I'm having issues hiding folders from people using access based enumeration
We have a drive on our file server (F:) with a folder that's shared to certain security groups.
The folder only has these certain groups in the security tab, the folder doesn't inherit permissions from the folder above and it hands out permissions to child objects.
The file share doesn't have permission to Everyone, just the same security groups
This was set up via Share and Storage management, were using Server 2008 R2
For some reason people who aren't in these security groups can still see the file share when the go to \\servername although they can't access it they can still see it. Should this not be hidden with ABE enabled?
Cheers

Thanks in advance.
