Problem with Email server

Hi,
What to check further, due to issue below to get Email message?

Hi

We have at the moment Server 2008 R2 Standard and are going to replace it soon with Server 2019 Standard. We would like to introduce Two-Factor Authentication for our VPN connections. We would also like to introduce Two-Factor Authentication for our Office 365 subscriptions. We do not mind having two separate ones but would be nice to just have one solution for these two - could be texts or the app. I know Microsoft has free Authenticator app.

I assume that we will have to pay for the Two-Factor Authentication for our VPN connections so as long as it is within our budget it is okay. It would be perfect if we could introduce it now on Server 2008 R2 too.

What would you suggest? What are you using yourself?

We are moving to Quickbooks Enterprise and I am trying to figure out if there is any reason why I need to run the database on a server as opposed to a high powered Win 10 machine.

We don't currently have a server so the expense would be considerably higher if it should be run on a server.

Comments?

Does anyone know of a way for a client to save to Downloads or My Documents and nowhere else on the computer, except a USB? These are public library computers and we need to limit their access to saving items on the local computer. We have a new server 2016 that we are setting up with group policy and it is one of the last items we can't get working before putting the GPO out and connecting the computers to the new domain. Thanks.

Protect Legacy Server

Hi All,

We have a few legacy servers that shortly will no longer be covered by Critical updates. These wont be able to be updated to a newer OS for a little while. We have a solid AV on them and they sit behind a decent friewall. Is there anything else we need to do to further protect these servers until we can upgrade them. None of them bar one touches the internet in any way.

Our reseller has suggested Trend Deep Security. Is this a good path to take / has anyone any experience with this product?

Thankyou,
Paul

Is there a way in server 2016 to mass send a message to all my RD users and then mass log them off. I remember this as a function in 2008 but can’t seem to be able to figure it in 2016.
We run updates on a Thursday night and I need a way of asking users to log off (even though we warn them multiple times) and then logging off in mass (approx. 300 total users).

- Server 2016 farm / 7 2016 RD servers
- 2x 2016 connection brokers
- VMware

Many thanks in advanced….

Hi,

We have a Windows Server 2003 PC that has been fine until yesterday.

I noticed that the C Drive storage space on this server had gotten quite low.

I searched and found a large increase in size of folder "Projects" in "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Search\Data\Applications\Windows".

It seems to have increased from about 1GB to 11GB.

I noticed yesterday after doing a search for large files on server, a file called "SystemIndex.Ntfy" incrementing in size every few seconds, located under above directory under "Projects/SystemIndex".

What could be the reason for the increase in size for these files?

How do we solve this issue?

Thanks,
Robbie

3rd Party Tools for Windows Server 2019?

We have a new domain setup in a medium-sized company with about 35 employees and 60 computers.
Work assignments are such that there will be 3 people with roles requiring adding new users and setting passwords - at least.

I'm concerned that some of these people may not be well-suited to doing these tasks with a "bare" Windows Server interface.
I see that there are 3rd party tools offered that are supposed to make things easier.

Which ones do you favor? Why?

Hi,

I am confused related to the installation of a firmware for Dell Server PowerEdge R510( I am not sure whether it has been installed or enabled in my server).

Here is the firmware  Dell EMC OpenManage Integration 7.1.1 for Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) and Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM).

I am able to download it (with the browser; not with “download manager”)

Here are the Details:

Date modified: 8/21/2019
Name: OMIMSSC_v7.1.1.2035_for_VMM_and_ConfigMgr_A00
Type: Compressed (zipped) folder
Size: 1,143,167 KB

When I execute by double-click the above zipped folder, I get the followings:

RPM_Yum_Repository (file folder)
Readme text document.

When I execute by double-click “RPM_Yum_Repository (file folder)”, I will get a lot of files; especially files with RPM extension.

I am confused now: I do not see any EXE file here, when I execute “RPM_Yum_Repository (file folder)”

Question:
1) Is the the above firmware (= OMIMSSC_v7.1.1.2035_for_VMM_and_ConfigMgr_A00) has been ENABLED or INSTALLED in my server? (i am confused as i do not see any EXE file)

2) If Not yet enabled or installed , please show me how to enable it?

Thanks,
tjie

I have 3 domain controllers on Windows Server 2019 Standard. I just set them up in a testbed environment that replicates the real world environment with IP addresses, inter-subnet router, etc.
They are each on one of 3 subnets that are routed together.
All DCs can ping the other 2.
All DCs can open fileshares on the other 2.
However, ONE DC cannot show ONE other DC in Server Manager-All Servers. It only shows itself and one other.
Trying to add the 3rd DC results in: No Items Found.
The other 2 DCs are showing all 3. So, the missing DC in one case seems to be an OK DC in the other case???

I've checked everything I can think to check and haven't been able to solve this.

I have just installed Solid CP control panel on a windows 2019 datacenter, install seem have gone correctly, no errors showing

however, when i try to open it i get this error

HTTP Error 404.17 - Not Found
The requested content appears to be script and will not be served by the static file handler.

Most likely causes:
The request matched a wildcard mime map. The request is mapped to the static file handler. If there were different pre-conditions, the request will map to a different handler.

Things you can try:
If you want to serve this content as a static file, add an explicit MIME map.

Hi,

We have a corrupt exchange .edb file that we need to recover email from.

I have tried the exeutil soft recovery option, this did not work. I havent tried the hard recovry yet because the file is 600GB and reading up say its takes 3-4 hours per 3GB ish, this would take an ice age so im exploring other options first

The edb was part of a Raid 10 array that 2 of the drives for some reason marked themselves as foreign. We have to clear the virtual drive and reassign the disks to the new VD. All the data is still there. I dont think this is a factor but worth mentioning just in case.

The idea I had was to use some third party software that claims it can mount a corrupt edb and get what I can, but I cant even copy the edb file to another drive as it keeps failing saying the file is corrupt.

Any help or advice I could get at this point would be very appreciated.

The database is currently marked as dirty shutdown. I tried reading how to make it a clean shutdown but couldnt seem to get anyhting to work.

Thank you
