Re: Modem problems Ted Ferenc28-Jul-03 0:35 Ted Ferenc 28-Jul-03 0:35  On a PC modem I always attach a telephone, in "pass through" mode to check that the modem cable is correct first of all. If you hear a ringtone then I use Hyperterminal and enter:- ATDT 1471 This will dial the number 1471, in the UK this is a free phone number that tells you who was the last person to dial you, or try any free phone number. Pick up the phone after dialing and see if you hear anything, you should hear something via the modem speaker. Also try it on another phone line, i.e. at your houuse. Or reset the modem to the factory default using the relevant AT command, see your manual and try again. If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants. - Isaac Newton 1676 Personal Firewall probelm rasaleela26-Jul-03 6:23 rasaleela 26-Jul-03 6:23  I have installed a personal Firewall, I cannot open IIS, or i cannot run any application which accesses the IIS such as .NET.. or any ASP application on my local system. Any one Help please.. Thanks Rasa Re: Personal Firewall probelm Roger Wright26-Jul-03 7:17 Roger Wright 26-Jul-03 7:17  Which firewall? Generally, you have to enable applications and ports individually on a new firewall. Most software firewalls automatically inform you that a program is attempting to access the Internet and ask whether you want to allow this. If you permit it you will not be blocked again. If the one you have installed doesn't offer this, you'll need to check the documentation to find out how to enable specific types of traffic. I've only used one type of hardware firewall, and it gave no notification of any kind; I had to manually create a table of permitted ports and traffic types allowed to pass. If you are using MMC to open IIS, you should have no trouble (I think), but using the web interface for administration won't work until the firewall is properly configured. At a minimum you need to allow HTTP traffic on port 80, but others may be required, as well. "The Lion shall lie down with the Lamb; but the Lamb will not get much sleep..."

Windows 2003 Server Michael Martin24-Jul-03 3:20 Michael Martin 24-Jul-03 3:20  Not sure how well everyone has been in keeping up with the story so far. So I will provide a cheat sheet. A customer has previously been rorted by their IT company and as such had the following hardware and software in their office. Compaq Proliant 400 (Pentium III 500 64MB) running Windows NT 4 Server PDC Celeron 600 128 MB running Windows 2000 Professional Pentium III 450 64 MB running Windows NT 4 Workstation Pentium 166 64 MB running Windows NT 4 Workstation Pentium 133 64 MB running Windows NT 4 Workstation All of this setup in the last 2-3 years. I have been onsite a few times putting out fires and installing a Pentium IV 2.4GHz 512MB running Windows XP Professional. This customer is not frightened to spend money if he feels he is getting something worthwhile for it. Unfortunately we ran into a few teething problems getting the new to play nicely with the old. He was pissed off and calling us all the names under sun until the QuickBooks bloke came onsite to install the 2003 version. It blew up cause the systems weren't up to minimum requirements except for the Win 2k ans XP machines. Consequently we are supplying him with 3 new XP machies and after a RAM upgrade the server is to be upgraded with Windows 2003 Server as I believe Windows 2000 Server is no longer available. Problem is the closest I ever got to installing Windows 2000 Server in the real world with Active Directory and all was 3 weeks. That is how close I was to being the Australian Domain Admin when my last company was doing the worldwide rollout but I was given the arse. So I obviously don't have a spare copy (or any copy) of Windows 2000/2003 Server lying around I can install and experiment with. So does anyone have any idea how I can figure out what I need to do to get all this to work? Theory only isn't ideal, but I don't seem to have any other option and I don't want anyone else in to do the job. I want the experience and more importantly I want the money for doing the job.

Lazarus Long Re: Windows 2003 Server Mike Dimmick31-Jul-03 14:10 Mike Dimmick 31-Jul-03 14:10  2000 Server is still available, but obviously it's closer to the end of its support lifecycle (by three years). Server 2003 I've not yet really used 'in anger', as it were. Installation was no harder on my old PII-300 than any previous version of Windows, really. You're upgrading a PDC. I'd recommend backing up the server before you begin - but then you should do this when upgrading anything. On upgrading an NT 4.0 domain, Server 2003 will start off in Mixed Mode on the domain. To migrate to Active Directory is a bit more painful. You can get an evaluation copy of Server 2003 from http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/evaluation/trial/evalkit.mspx[^] I suggest reading the upgrade notes at http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/upgrading/nt4/default.mspx[^]. Hope this helps. Re: Windows 2003 Server Michael Martin1-Aug-03 6:11 Michael Martin 1-Aug-03 6:11  Not long got home (02:15 02-Aug-2003) from installing the server. Fresh install not an upgrade. Back there in about 7 hours to finish configuring the clients and connecting them to the domain. After that copy all data back to the server and new clients and install a bit of software. Sunday we take them from my company premises back onsite reconnect and hope all is well. Windows Server 2003 (as David Stone told me it was called) installed OK. But the wizard that set the role of the server bit me. I took the typical settings as it was my first time through and it was getting late. Bad move as it created a DHCP server, didn't want it as we have hardware doing it elsewhere. Removed it, activated it and updated it. Looking good so far. Thanks for your reply.

I've never heard of it, but it might be worth your while to run a google search on the filename. There is no magic in computing, unless you count a Windows server running for three straight days without rebooting magic. Things that magically appear on the desktop are almost always the result of somebody's mischief, which is rarely directed to your benefit.
