I am currently at work and we have our network of computers. We have a few servers running Windows Server 2003. One of them crapped out and someone simply hooked up a new system, transferred the old data and set the new system up with the same name on the network. This server also hosts an instance of MS SQL Server 2008 Express.
The issue, however, is that all the computers in the network must now connect to the SQL Server using its IP Address, rather than the computer name. When I ping by IP it resolves the computer name correctly. However, when I ping the computer name it gives me the server's OLD IP Address.
How can we correct this?

Check your DNS settings and source.
The best things in life are not things.

Few steps to find a resolution:
- Go to your DNS or WINS server and flush the name/IP of the old machine from there.
- Its also possible to store it as a static IP from there (in name resolution server) so make sure its not stored as a static address.
- Finally, make sure none of your computers have an entry in the hosts file directing them to the old IP address.
Good luck!

I did check the hosts file on the affected systems, none of which contained any entries in them. We also do not have actual access to our DNS servers. That is only accessible by corporate IT. It's no big deal though. I just changed the software to use the IP address of the server rather than the computer name. And I had to manually update them (only the one time; my application updates itself when it has a valid server path). So the worst part of it is over. :-P
Thank you for the responses though.

Good Day All
i have a IIS server. This IIS Server is publicly available , so i have hosted some WCF services in that server , i can access the URL from outside my network, but i can use it. the url that i access it with is
http://196.XX.XXX.XXX:8095/datalayer/[^]
but now looking at the link to generate the metadata is different, it does not use an IP
svcutil.exe http:
so this makes it not accessible via the wcftestclient or even if i try to make add a reference in my applications in VS
What settings in the IIS do i need to change ?
Thanks

I recently completed an SBS2011 install for a pal, and as usual the system put the users profile on the system drive at "c:\users\"
I am looking to move the profiles over to a different volume on the same server, but I cannot see an easy way to transfer the existing profiles. I can see the settings that need to be changed for defaulting any users from this point forward, but not moving existing users.
Any ideas??anybody got a simple cheat sheet? I have search google till I am blue in the face, and I come up with is migrating users from one server to another. Maybe just not coming up with the correct keywords.
This must be a common scenario problem........

Hello,
I have the following problem:
I need to setup a Web Site (with IIS 7.0 on Windows Server 2008 R2) which hosts a WPF XBAP application.
The users should end up just entering the normal address (http:..) and loading the application.
I did install the MIME extensions and all the rest to run XBAP from server.
It did work fine for a few weeks now but I ran into this:
- I ran under another workstation then mine (to test the DB access) and it told me the SQLServer cannot be found (the connection goes with server/port and with a specific SQL User ID + Password combination).
Now after a cleaning and republish each time I start I get or the message "Forbidden access (403)" even with anonymous access rights or that an application with the same manifest is already installed (just got deleted...). I tried some googleling but I wasn't very successfull, seems that XBAP is not very pleased.
Did anyone had the same problem? What did I do wrong, surely in the publish settings.
Any advice is wellcome.

Hi All,
Is there any possibilities to have sql server on one IP which is not public due to security reasons and Report Server Web service on another IP which is public to access the deployed reports on SSRS.
If it is possible please let me know the process of hosting Report Server Web service on public IP which can acces data from sql server database which is on another IP (Private).
Please help me regarding this.

Hi,
My company has an App server which has the following configuration,
Java Version - 1.6.0_21
Java SE Runtime Env - build 1.6.0_21 - b07
Operating System - Windows Server 2008 R2 EnterPrise
RAM - 8 GB
System Type - 64 bit
WebSpehere MQ Queue manager version - 7.1.300.10230
I am calling an batch file from my WCF service (On the same server). This batch file will call some jar files(On the same server). These jar files uses the IBM's MQ to communicate to Mainframe via crossplex.
The problem is that total time taken by executing the jar files is huge.
We have an old app server which was having Java 1.5 and MQ 6.0 and it's response time was much faster than our new app server though new server is having high configuration.
I read on IBM website as well but did not get much. I think, it can be an compatibility issue between OS and MQ, or between java and MQ. I am not sure. PLease reply me if anyone has faced the similer problem.

I want to change my provider..
I'm on Webhost4life.com for $9 / month and I'm trying to delete comment on my blog (using BlogEngine1.6, maybe this is the choke point? or the SqlServerDB?) Anyway this is just too damn slow!
10 minutes to delete 25 post and it's not completed yet! What's going on?
(curiously, and thanfully, displaying page is working snappily at the same time, how strange...)
I want to migrate to another provider? any tips?
I found this one which seems kind of interesting, I might go for the business plan... what do you think?

I use DiisocuntAsp.Net[^] and SoftSys[^] though I shall be moving completely to SoftSys in the near future (cheaper and service is just as reliable).

I also use DiscountASP.Net, and think they are one of the better hosting providers. The only thing I don't like is that they charge an extra $10/month for SQL Server. I've been thinking of trying out WinHost.com[^]. From what I hear, they use the same data center as DiscountASP.Net.

[Moved to the Hosting forum]
Have you looked at ServerBeach[^]?
I've tried WEbHost4Life and found them painfully slow. ServerBeach is run by Peer1[^] (our hosters) and have consistently been at (or near) the top of the customer satisfaction.

No, I haven't but I think I will look at it tomorrow!
(It's starting to be late here...)
Indeed Webhost4life is painfully slow... :-/
Thanks again Chris!

I use Rackspace and have to say it's by far the best hosting I've had so far. I too used WebHost4Life for a number of years, but their database servers were too painfully slow. GoDaddy was horrific (albeit that was a number of years ago now). For awhile I moved everything to PowerDNN (even though the sites I'm hosting aren't DNN) because they could make DNN sites fly. My sites were nice and fast there, but the bang for buck just wasn't great. Rackspace Cloud Sites is really, really good. Very configureable and I can even give my clients a 1-800 number for 24/7 support for things like email, website down etc.
The only downside is cost. The cost is good for me, but I use it to host a bunch of sites. If it's just for one, the monthly cost will be too high.
Cheers,
Drew.

Hi,
I'm looking at hosting solutions too - and these guys look ok on the site - are you still happy with them? Any issues?
I'm needing SQL Server Db plus ASPX - are you using SQL Server?
When they say 'unlimited' - do they mean that?
Cheers

Yes, I'm happy with them.
Sorry for the late reply, I am in the middle of a big inter-state move!

Please tell me how to setup own servers to host websites.
What are the advantages, Risks, issues involved?
When we should go for own servers?
Thank you.
|
|
|
|

One of the key considerations for me would be to ensure that you have enough bandwidth available if you are not hosting the servers at an ISP.
Another option to consider is security, especially firewalling.
The above issues is however also applicable even when hosting at an ISP.

Hi,
I'm using CDO to send mail via my ASP application. My client has reported that whenever they try to access the application within their internal network, they don't receive any mail that they send via the application but it they access it outside their network, they get the mail.
Can anyone please advise me on this?
Thanks
Cheers

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could help me. We have a number of websites running on our server and the IIS process was causing high CPU. To narrow this down we put each website in to its own app_pool to help identify the website. We now know which website is causing the problem however we don't know what part of the site is causing it. This could be down to the coding etc.
Is there any tool I could run/install to help identify the code or area of the site causing the problem?
Any help would be much appreciated. As a temp fix we are recycling the app_pool every couple of hours to keep it down.
Many thanks
