Hi,
What to adjust on server, as port 993 is not responding, like

182.173.77.220 is responding on port 80 (http).

182.173.77.220 isn't responding on port 993 (imaps).

while I already opened TCP & UDP Inbound & Outbound Firewall rules on 993 port.

I am currently with Ivanti formally known as Shavlik patch management.  My 3 year is about to expire, what I was paying for 3 years is now what I will have to pay for 1 year so we can not continue with Ivanti.   Does anyone have any recommendations on a patch management system that has a reasonably  price structure?

Thanks.

OK, Friends. I need help with DNS, DOMAIN CONTROLLER on Windows 2016 Stadard

I try to find out how to add additional DC to my Windows 2012R2 functionality forest but I have so many problems.

I'm in the middle of moving all my 2012 R2 servers to new hardware with new OS  - Windows 2016

I have installed new OS for server that will be my new DC with FSMO role.
I did this many times in the past so whole procedure is straight forward but not this time
My problem is that since I'm running out of IP addresses in my 10.0.0.x family I've decided to extend my subnet by installing Superscop on my DHCP server. This was done a year ago and all is working OK since.

I've changed network mask for all computers from 255.255.255.0 to 255.255.254.0 to give them access to 2 subnets 10.0.0.x and 10.0.1.x
Simple yes ?
I've confirmed and my DHCP server is assigning IP from new subnet / second superscope as soon as first is full. This is what I want.

So I've installed new server and I've installed AD DS role on it.
All went smooth. I've restarted server and run configuration to promote this new server to be a third DC

and here we go:
I'm getting an error.

On first step - Deployment Configuration I have error:

The wizard cannot access the list of domains in the forest. The error is: The network path was not found.

I did a lot of research in internet but all points to DNS issue which in my configuration is OK.

I have 2 DCs in network:

Master: 10.0.0.4 - also DNS,…

Hi guys,

I got a dlink switch and synology nas.
Got link aggregation (2 ports) from switch to nas.
How do I test the performance ? Is there any way to test read write performance through link aggregation .

I just want to see the difference between a single port connection and link aggregation to either server/nas ?? Just wanted to prove a client there is a difference with actual facts!

Hi,

We have a client who share data between 2 computers. PC2 connects to PC1 for shared data and some software.

Intermittently, PC2 loses connection to PC1. The share is setup as \\PC1\ Data. When we dial in, we can ping the IP address but not the PC name.

More often than not I will add a shortcut using the IP Address and then the the original shortcut using the PC name will then work. We have tried setting the shortcuts using the IP address but this had the same issue but in reverse.

I have set PC1 to static, checked Computer Browser service and UPNP are set to auto on both. Disabled all advanced sharing settings, reinstalled SMB from features and then Enabled all advanced sharing. It will work for a period of time and then lose connection again.

Any suggestions?

I have several directory structures and I want users to be able to edit files in those directory structures but I do not want them adding files or changing the directory structure. Can this be done with NTFS Permissions?

Hi Experts

Could you point a way a Windows7 / 10 user's  login configuration could prevent an user to see network locations at Windows Explorer?

Some files needed to operation remains at network folders , the app needs to read this files during operation but the operator can't access it due security reasons.

Thanks in advance.

Hi

I have created an application that adds permissions to a Shared Folder on a Window server (this is important as I'm setting permissions on a share and NOT NTFS).

I now need to do the opposite and remove the group 'Everyone' from the Share permission.  I have a piece of code that gets the existing permissions as follows:

 Dim securityDescriptor As ManagementBaseObject = TryCast(securityDescriptorObject.Properties("Descriptor").Value, ManagementBaseObject)
        Dim existingAcessControlEntriesCount As Integer = 0
        Dim accessControlList As ManagementBaseObject() = TryCast(securityDescriptor.Properties("DACL").Value, ManagementBaseObject())

        If accessControlList Is Nothing Then
            accessControlList = New ManagementBaseObject(0) {}
        Else
            existingAcessControlEntriesCount = accessControlList.Length
            Array.Resize(accessControlList, accessControlList.Length + 1)
        End If

As you can see above, I am using an ACL list and I extend it  so that I can then add the new ACL for the group I want to give permissions to.  I now wish to do the opposite and remove an entry from the accessControlList.

Now, I am convinced that if I were to remove one of the existing entries from this accessControlList before committing it back, that would remove a permission for an existing object but I don't know how to enumerate the accessControlList to find the entry I want to remove.

In pseudo-code, this is what I …

Hi

We had a power outage and unexpected power shutdown on our RDP server and now I am not able to RDP thorough the internet.
It says Error: Unable to display RD Web Access.  On the event viewer says The service did not start due to logon failure.

On the RDP server I click the remote desktop services, it says “The server pool does not match the RD connection Broker that are in it”

On the event viewer i get event 7001, Source - service control manager

Please see the snapshot.
 
 Any help to resolve this would be great and thanks in advance.
