Hi, djj55! How do you do ?
I use Acronis True Image Home, and I like it a lot.
It makes a good work. I don't know if the Business Version is too much expansive for you ($853.00 per license).
Take a chance for it, and let me know if you like this.
Below I added the Overview from Acronis site (http://www.acronis.com/backup-recovery/server-windows/)
Best Regards,
João Luiz
Overview

Make disaster recovery a reality
Acronis Backup & Recovery 11 creates disk image backup that contains full operating system, applications and data, and combined with intuitive interface, this makes backup recovery of the entire system as simple as a few clicks, eliminating possible mistakes and freeing administrator for other work.

Hi all,
this is a bit a of a humdinger of an issue. A friend of mine (and I kid you not) decided to punish his son for something he did by blocking his computer use using an application from Piranha Designs called Timemonitor (which in itself is stupid considering that Windows 7 could manage this directly via the parental control). After a day he discovered that his son had an account with administrative priviledges, which he told his wife.
His wife then, during lunchtime today, logged in, created an account of her own giving her admin priviledges and removing them from the sons account. In comes the Timemonitor software that effectively locked her out from logging in. BUT the son, the person that SHOULDN'T be able to use the comp, can do so, but without admin priviledges. 
So, to make a long story short, how the heck can I help my friend to gain access to his computer again. The machine is running Windows 7 Home Premium and I suppose (although I haven't been able to confirm) that the timemonitor messes with the user logins on Windows and limits their logintime with something like NET USER /TIME etc etc.
I guess it would be possible to help him using DaRT or something similar, the issue is, however, that he's 500 km away and all I'm stuck with is Netviewer or Teamviewer to give him some remote assistance. As soon as I try to do something useful, the UAC steps in and demands that he provides the admin credentials, giving his wives credentials it refuses to elevate priviledges since that account isn't allowed to login at this time.
Is there ANYTHING I can do? As the schedule looks now, the timemonitor will allow login of the admin account on the comp in three weeks. 
Any help would be lovely

I'd like to add a route from my computer to a VMWare Virtual Machine which runs on a computer in a different office. I can access the host computer (192.168.110.164) where the machine is running on a virtual subnet. The IP address of the virtual computer I'd like to connect to is 192.168.44.4 (I *MUST NOT* change it due to some third party software running on it which would need to be configured again by Third Party when the IP address is changed).
I know that there is a "route add" command, but because I do not know anything about routes and metrics, I fail to understand the examples given on some web pages. I tried a "route ADD 192.168.44.0 MASK 255.255.255.0 192.168.110.164", but that seems not work (I cannot ping it from my computer, only from the host).
How do I add that route? Thanks a lot for your hints.

Finally I found a simpler solution: since the machine I want to connect to is a Virtual Machine, I could add a second network card, and then the machine had an IP address in the "normal" subnet also.

Why can i change permissions of a folder even i haven't full control over it on the same PC?
Because i am admin or because i created this folder or another reason?
At the same time i can't change these permissions from another PC over the network although i use the same account
Thanks
sorry for my bad English

HI friends,
I have a web application written using .Net framework 3.5. The applications runs good when running under visual studio. I have installed it on my local machine. Just to be able to host my many applications I have assigned Host name to my application: www.crm_web.com and then in the hosts file in the C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc directory on my local machine I have included
127.0.0.1 www.crm_web.com which tells the system to look into the system itself for the crm_web.com host name. This all is fine.
Now when through my browser on my local machine I write www.crm_web.com and access the website it runs fine. But when I try to do the same thing using www.crm_web.com/default.aspx the applications doesn't runs properly at all. Infact I am even not able to login into the site. (Default.aspx is a login page and the start up page.) For me it is very necessary that I am able to properly access the website through www.crm_web.com/default.aspx also coz I need to add querystring parameters to this URL. e.g www.crm_web.com/default.aspx?name='gaurav'
Looking forward for some help.
Thanks and Regards,
Gaurav

Hello all,
This is an update from a question I posted one month ago[^]...
Let's see there is a HP server (win 2003 standard) that get's stopped suddenly each day one or two times...
When it gets stopped I can't see any message in the logs that could help me to know what has happened...
The server gets stopped abruptly and it shows me the light INTERNAL ERROR...
The only messages that I see before the shutdown are related to printing operations (some of them 20 minutes or half an hour before the shutdown) and some MRxSmb warnings...
I don't know where to look... any idea from you?
Thank you in advance!

A hardware problem? Maybe the BIOS maintains some kind of error log, or at least the last reason it turned the error light on.

In planning to decommission a test server (Windows Server 2003), a number of files were copied from it to another server (Windows Server 2003).
After the files were copied, we tried to rename a directory - access is denied.
Finally tracked the issue down to a number of Excel spreadsheets in a subdirectory. When trying to open them, we get the message '... is locked for editing' by either 'Crystal Reports' or a user that retired over a year ago!
Crystal Reports is not installed on the new server and the aforementioned user never had access to the server.
Any idea on how we can delete the files?
Thanks,
Tim

Remove the permissions for the SID's that cant be resolved. They are normally the culprits. Then take ownership of the file.
|
|
|
|

Check the directory / file security - you will probably see a user SSID from the original drive that was copied over along with the files - you can try to delete the SSID entry. Another thing to try is to see if you can change the Properties / Security / Access Control for the folder above the one you want and apply it to all of the children.

0. Open a command window and navigate to the directory.
1. Leaving the command window open, start Task Manager and kill all explorer.exe instances.
(Whoops - there goes your desktop!  ) 
2. Return to the command window and delete the nasties.
3. Restart explorer either through the command window or File/New task in the Task Manager.
Thats all folks, nothing to see here - except you got your desktop back.

Interesting that I should collect a high-power down-vote for something that absolutely works - I used it myself on Server 2003 yesterday.
Ah well, c'est la vie.

Issue solved:
Using SysInternals Handle.exe, get a list of files in use by whatever applications.
Find and kill the application(s).
In this case, cidaemon.exe, the indexing service. Set the service to manual and deleted files.
For those that tried to help, thank you.

Alright, I have linked to a screenshot of my most current SQL Server 2008 Express log. I was going through my Windows Event Viewer, as I do periodically, simply looking for anything out of the ordinary (my routine system maintenance). I noticed several events for SQL Server with the source "Logon". When I loaded SQL Server Management Studio Express and viewed the most current log (from today) I have a VERY enormous amount of failed (remote) login attempts, all saying "Login failed for user 'sa'. Reason: Password did not match that for the login provided. [CLIENT: *Different IP's Here*]". What is going on here?
These date back to my logs from June 20, 2011, I just now noticed. I must have missed them in the Event Viewer in the past. There are thousands upon thousands, probably tens of thousands of them. They seem to come in for no more than a minute at a time. However, if you look at the log times, the attempts happen every few seconds within that minute. Then they stop and the attempt comes in from another IP address.
What should I do? I already disabled remote connections, as I did not need it anyhow. I'm not sure exactly why I had it enabled. But is this something I should worry about, since I follow procedures to ensure a strong, impossible-to-crack password? :-P
