I'm not sure yet whether it will help; the error message is different, though the symptoms are similar. It's amazing that the search engine has never offered this one to me though. I've used keywords that match the list, and phrases that are contained in the text.
One curious item I noticed - "It is not recommended that you install an IIS Web Server on a Windows 2000 Domain Controller." What are small businesses who don't need two servers supposed to do? And why does Microsoft continue to ship Small Business Server (which also includes Exchange Server and Proxy Server, all of which are not recommended for installation on the same machine)?
Having followed the instructions given for Windows 2000 (they don't match what actually appears on the screen, so some guessing is involved), I'll have to arrange for some outside tesing. Thanks for the suggestion!

I had a problem with security when running .NET apps on a PDC Win 2K server. I unfortunately setup the server as a PDC and then .NET would work only with user permissions as SYSTEM.

That solved it, Richard. Thanks! I would have never found it stumbling around in the MMC myself...

Hi Roger ,
For one you didn't post your error message anywhere that I can see .Another is that I'm pretty sure that the account has to have log on locally priveleges . That is why I said to create a local account on the box for each user and lock it down on the NTFS level for each directory . Thats not anonymous because you need to know the account and password for you to connect .It just won't let anyone connect .
Thanks
Chris

I did all the steps you suggesteed before posting, but none worked. The reference to the article above did the trick, though. Win2K Server doesn't allow local user logons unless a group policy is used to enable it. Once I followed the instructions contained in the article, no further changes were required - all the previous settings were correct. Domain users can now log in, but anonymous users are blocked, just the way I like it.

How to show Windows a Virtual SCSI adapter?
For ex, the utility Daemon Tools creates a Virtual SCSI adapter and adds a child device (DVD ROM drive) to it.
How to do this?
Thanx in advance

my VB6 application which calls and uses Excel works fine in Windows NT,2K and XP , but experiences problems when running on Windows 98. The system hangs and the message "System is dangerously low on resources" appear. I am assuming that this happen because Win98 does not have very secure Resource Management compared to NT based OS. Does anyone have any idea how to make my app work in Win98 ?

It has nothing to do with security. Your app is leaking resources (mostly likely GDI objects) and since much of the 9x OS is 16-bit internally, you hit a 16-bit limitation (like exhausing a 64K heap for example).
So the solution is to fix your resource leaks.

I have a 3-box network at home... a Win2k Server (used as a file server and IIS/SQL host), a desktop running Win2k Server and a laptop running Win2k Server (used to have Pro).
I've been debating on moving the laptop to WinXP Pro but my concern has been it's capabilities as a development platform. The more and more I see screenshots and attend seminars, the more I see WinXP. I love the look and feel, just concerned about using it as a development platform (also to watch DVDs). I'm toying wiht the idea of putting WinXP on it and if I don't like it, just putting Win2K Pro back on (need those power managment features).
Does anyone have any opinions or input about using WinXP Pro on a laptop when the primary use of the laptop is development (VS.NET/PhotoShop/Illustrator/OfficeXP)? What about WinXP Pro's power managment features on a laptop?
Thanks,
-AC

I can tell no difference at all when developing on XP at work (compared to 2000 at home). If it weren't for the cutesy icons, I couldn't tell it apart from 2K.

You shouldn't have any problem with it, and you might find some benefit for development purposes. I despise WinXP as a platform, but that's for esthetic reasons (the GUI sux) and matters of principle (the licensing model). But it is quite functional, and is sufficiently different from Win2K that there are some times when the differences could cause problems with the products you design. You currently are running a Win2K Server farm - it would benefit you to have at least one XP host to build and test your apps on.
The power management features of XP I can't comment on - it works on desktops well enough, but I can't afford a laptop and have no experience with it. Win2K does an excellent job of power management, and XP appears to extend this capability - I'd go ahead and risk it...

I run XP on my desktop, Win2k Server on my laptop, and Linux 2.5.15 on another desktop. I've used XP Server on the same laptop with no problems, but needed a Win2k Server environment, and that's why my desktop now runs XP.
As a dev. platform, XP is fine, I just kill all the themes so it looks almost identical to Win2k. (There are plenty of sites out there that give you tips on speeding up any Windows OS.)
As far as power management: never had a problem. Works like a charm.

When I came back from my holidays, I found someone used my computer (Windows NT) and besides others, installed there 'something'. There were remains of InstallShield (_delis43.ini, Zdata51.dll, _ins5176._mp) in a TEMP directory. My question is how can I find out what activities were performed on my computer. Will you give me a hint where and how I should look for them.
Regards,
Martin

Do a search for *.log on your system. Most installers leave an audit trail behind them. I've been playing with this myself today, and discovered quite a few attempts to hack into my system. None succeeded, and all returned 550 and 404 errors, but I'm planning to send each and every one of my admirers a personalized copy of BackOrifice as soon as I can get around to it.

Download Zonealarm from Zone Alarm[^] if you think this intrusion was via the internet. It's a brilliant software firewall, and what's more, it's free.
I've always heard that there was an idea behind Win ME... I still can't figure out what that was... anyboy know??? I;ve herad the idea was that it was supposed to be n operating system but I doubt this. - Brian Delahunty

Buy the Pro version, Megan - it's cheap, and so much nicer!

This is my first run with SQL Server 2000. I have the server setup on my network, but when I go to "Register New Server" within Enterprise Agent, it's not listed. It's listed in the Win2k ODBC Admin tools (where you setup DSN's), but not within Enterprise Agent. There is a server showing up, but it is not mine. There are about 30 or so SQL server's out there (which, again, are listed where you setup ODBC in Win2K), but only one of these are showing up with I go to register a new server. What are some of the possible problems? I have verified protocol setup of TCP/IP for both server and client. Any help is appreciated!

have tried just entering the server name ? or ip ...???
When I register my servers in the Enterprise admin tool I never browse for them .... I enter them directly .
Hope that helps ..

I don't know about October 2001 or earlier versions, but later versions use the IE Favorites folder.
