We are setting up and testing out Citrix XenApp 7.17 and we have

- 3 Microsoft terminal servers
- 1 master server

It appears how this version of Citrix XenApp updates the terminal servers is that you make the change on the master and test it.  The when you are ready the Citrix Studio software clones the master server and replaces the 3 terminal servers.  As we are testing this out I tried to push some updates (new clones virtual servers) I have run into this errors message from the vsphere client:  "Snapshot hierarchy is too deep".


I originally thought it was a Citrix error; but, I now think that this is a VMware error.  Please see the screen shots and how many snapshots we have associated with that master virtual server.


I wonder if I should "delete all" snapshots or what I should do.  Ideas?

Hi, I am using Exchange2013 on Windows Server 2012 R2.
I would like to get confirmation of a specific message.
I can't find a powershell / exchange console command useful to get this.
I mean, if I use:

C:\Windows\system32>Get-MessageTrackingLog -sender some_sender@domain.com  -recipients some_recipient@recipientdomain.com

I only get this:

RECEIVE  STORE... some_sender@domain.com              {some_recipient@recipientdomain.com}               Documentazione 
SUBMIT   STORE... some_sender@domain.com              {some_recipient@recipientdomain.com}               Documentazione 
HARED... SMTP     some_sender@domain.com              {some_recipient@recipientdomain.com}               Documentazione 
RECEIVE  SMTP     some_sender@domain.com              {some_recipient@recipientdomain.com}               Documentazione 
AGENT... AGENT    some_sender@domain.com              {some_recipient@recipientdomain.com}               Documentazione 
TRANSFER ROUTING  some_sender@domain.com              {some_recipient@recipientdomain.com}               Documentazione 
SEND     SMTP     some_sender@domain.com              {some_recipient@recipientdomain.com}               Documentazione 

Select all Open in new window

but I have no evidence that remote SMTP got my mail, remote message ID, and so on.
How can I find this?

thank you!

When I attempt to instal, Java on a Windows 212 R2 server, the installation errors out.  See screen shot below


I download the file from the website:  https://www.java.com/en/download/help/windows_manual_download.xml

That clearly states Windows 2102. As soon as I click 'Next' from the wizard, the error comes up.  What can I do to install Java on Windows Server 2012 R2.

I have a Windows Server 2012 Standard (all updates) with 2 Virtual machines running. Both VM's are setup as 2012 Server as Active Directory Controllers. Both these VM's  have been running in this configuration for 4 years. Yesterday they suddenly stopped communicating with the Internet. I can ping each machine from the other but I can not ping the Firewall. From the host machine I can ping the VM's but not vice versa.

I have a user who is trying to send to a group and received the following error. I am using exchange 2010 and have decommissioned exchange 2003. This is an internal email

Please note i have already checked below and authentication box is unchecked
go into emc - go to the mailbox - right click - go to properties - go to mail flow settings - message delivery restrictions and see if the authenticate box is checked

Error Message is below
Delivery has failed to these recipients or groups:

Hi guys

I'm trying to set up an SFTP server for our company to use. I have a Windows 2012 server and have started to go down the open ssh route etc.

Do you guys have any guides one could follow or recommendations you would make?

If people think Linux would be a better route, then I can go down that route too. I need something that will be stable and not lose/drop connectivity because of some sort of service that needs restarting all of the time etc.

And I have to do this within the next 3hrs:).


Thanks for helping
Yash

It has been 8 years since https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/25023422/GPO-RSOP-Compare-two-computers.html

What new tools like the below do you recommend, running Windows 2012 R2 domain, Windows 10 Pro clients ?

I have my IT guy access my computer via Teamviewer so he can access my servers via RDP from my computer, and he doesn't have server login information.

If I give him RDP access to my computer instead of using TeamViewer, how can I secure files and data on my  servers?

We have a WSUS server issue.  In short, there are computers that are showing "critical" updates that are "needed", yet when we look in the UPDATES view, and try to filter by "Critical updates" that show status of "unapproved", there are none.  Not sure what is causing this anomaly. It's a 2012 Server, with the latest WSUS version.

I have recently taken over an IT role where the use of Group policy was not used efficiently. I have created OU's by region so London, Kent etc and within London we have IT, HR, Marketing, accounts etc.

So I have created a London GP that deploys the standard drives for all staff in London which works fine.  

I have then created individual GP's for HR, IT, & accounts and applied to the each OU to map department specific drives - again this works perfectly.

That all went well but we have three admins in the London OU who need access to the marketing drive but need to remain in the London OU.

I had thought I could do this with Item-level Targeting but that isn't working, I assume because those users are in a higher OU?

What would people advise in terms of applying a GP to an OU but also applying it to individuals who would be the exception?

I am running into the CredSSP error:


I have read the link and have performed the windows updates on both machines.
I have even tried configuring the registry, adding the new registry it suggests to add, and I used the value of 1 on both machines, I still can't RDP into the other PC.
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4093492/credssp-updates-for-cve-2018-0886-march-13-2018

Any ideas how to resolve this?
