I manage AD and 30+ servers at a community college. I just got a new computer for my office and loaded Windows 7. I also loaded the Remote Server Admin Tools so that I may manage my servers. The old Windows XP Admin Tools had a tool called IP Address Management. This tool combined DNS, DHCP, and WINS management all in the same window and the DHCP would keep the server setups on exit. I can't find this tool in the RS Admin Tools for Windows 7. Does anyone know where I can get a tool like this for Windows 7?
I tried to re-letter one of my DVD drives by opening admin tools and then going to computer storage and then computer management only to find both were missing. When I go to Control Panel>Administrative tools all I get is something that says "Server Extensions Administrator".
Is there a way to unattended remote connect to a desktop, using existing MS tools, and share the desktop, without having to wait on the other user to give me a thumbs up?I work on a remote PC, and need the user there to be able to view the desktop while I work on it. However I also need them to also not have to directly give me access each time, such as the case with the help me request application (Windows Remote Assistance normal setup)
I am trying to set it up so I can use remote assistance for a Win7 Home PC and the user not have to know the admin password to allow it. I am trying to look down a teens PC so they have to go to me for installs.
But it seems when I try to do RA they have to know the admin password at the actual computer, is there anyway to make it so RA does not prompt for it?
The "Home Premium" version of Windows that comes with most retail computers includes a one-sided (and intentionally crippled) Remote Desktop subsystem that allows my computer to connect to other computers, but doesn't allow other users on my network to remotely control my computer from their desktops. Is there any free software that can take the place of the missing RDP server component? (I'm not ashamed to admit, I'm a cheap S.O.B. who doesn't want to pay to upgrade Windows on all the machines on my home network, especially when this is the only component from the pricier versions that I want or need.)
I curently RDC to my work computer and run the program I need from the work computer and just rely on the screen redrawing. I have the same program on my home computer and was wondering how to map the network drive or what settings to change on the server03 so that I could use that drive on the remote computer as a directory on my home computer for the program I want to use at home.
i have just installed HP WebjetAdmin on a W7 64bit Office Pro installation.It installed fine and is the 64bit version. Since restarting I get the error message The remote device or resource won't accept the connection Detected [URL] The device or resource (localhost) is not set up to accept connections on port "8000". The usermanual [URL] says 8000 UDP O HP Web Jetadmin Discovery Listen: HP Web Jetadmin uses this port on remote IP hosts to detect earlier versions of the HP Web Jetadmin software.8000 TCP I Web Server: HP Web Jetadmin provides an HTTP listener for the initial client launch, Help content, and device file transfer operations. I have Commodo firewall and this program's exe is set as safe, but when i shut Commodo the issue remains?
I have a hosted Linux server running CentOS 5 with Samba 3.4. Everything is setup and it is accessible via Linux machines by typing [URL] in a Firefox address bar. I am trying to set up a local network share on a Windows 7 Home Premium x64 SP1 computer. I have tried entering the IP address in 2 locations:1. Map Network drive. I select a drive letter and type in the ip \12.345.678.9 It asks for credentials and I enter the user info for the user I created on the Linux machine. It thinks a moment then pops back up asking for credentials. It doesn't say they are invalid, just never goes through.2. Connect to a website (under Map Network Drive). I type the IP [URL] and click connect and it pops up a dialog saying "The folder you entered does not appear to be valid. Please choose another".
I have tried creating a loopback adapter and trying to setup a connection via SSH using the guide found at [URL]. After completing the tutorial (substituting my server IP address for the destination address given) I try using the Run dialog as indicated and get a "Windows cannot connect to.." error and the diagnose connection button. One thing that may be causing problems there is that the loopback adapter is labeled as an unidentified network and thus stuck as a public connection, and I am unable to change it. Searching for solutions to that brings up things I can't access (no group policy editor on Home Premium) or results in no change (setting DHCP server, which I tried setting to my router).
I have two Windows 7 machines which both flawlessly access my Home Server 2011 via Remote Desktop.When I attempt to access the Hone Server via Live Live Mesh "Connect to this Computer" I receive a log in screen request for a Ctrl-Alt-Del. Clicking the Remote Desktop Window link to issue the request has no affect. No other action is available except to disconnect from the server.
If I wanted to keep my current home computer as my main server & be able to access it remotely via laptop any where in the world if I'm away for whatever reason.
What kind of laptop would be best?
My business is websites, so I almost automatically jump to an apple since its pushed more for the graphics/artists
But I also like the dells & alienwares.
I'd also like them to talk wirelessly/via bluetooth while they are in the same room together to "sync" up.
I'm just not sure which way to go.
I wont be gaming, just heaving internet surfing & web design/work.
I run Windows 7 64 & Ubuntu 64 (though I havent used it as much since Windows 7 64 came out)
I am trying to configure Remote Desktop Access to work over the internet. Remote Desktop Access works on my local network.
Both of my computers are on Windows 7 Professionnal. My router is a Belkin F9K1002.
I followed the official widows tutorial. I forwarded the necessary port on my router (I switched from port 3389 to 50000, in case 3389 was blocked by my isp).
Every time I try to connect I get
"Remote Desktop can't connect to the remote computer for one of these reasons:
1)Remote access to the server is not enabled
2)The remote computer is turned off
3)The remote computer is not available on the network Make sure the remote computer is turned on and connected to the network, and that remote access is enabled."
I know there have been a number of posts on this subject but I have been unable to find a solution. I have 2 Windows 7 machines, both running SP1.
My HP Pavilion is running 64-bit and my Dell Latiude E6400 is running 32-bit. I can successfully RDP from my Dell and even my Apple iPad (via an RDP client) into my HP Pavilion. However, the problem is that when I try to RDP from my Pavilion into my Dell I get connected but all I see is a BLACK from the Dell machine. The only thing i can see is the Status bar at teh top telling me that i am connected. A few moments later I get a popup message telling me that the machines have failed to communicate.
I have confirmed that RDP settings are identical on the Pavilion and Dell. I have even downgraded the Dell NVIDIA graphics driver to an older version based on the recommended version on the Dell support web site.
I am using Windows 7 Pro 64bit, trying to use Windows remote desktop to connect to another PC in the LAN and install software. Right click on the .exe and choose run as admin. As soon as I do that I get a black screen with 2 white bars in the upper left hand corner(looks like a pause button). The user who's pc I am connected to sees the log inbox for the admin creds, how ever I can not get to it. How can I make that screen stop popping up?
We have several remote systems that can all connect fine. I am having an issue with one box. It is a windows 7 home premium machine with netgear wireless nic. When I open mstsc to connect to a remote machine I put in the ip address and click on connect.I receive an immediate failure with the text "This computer can't connect to the remote computer. Try connecting again...blah blah"I have a server 2008 r2 with Network level authentication enabled. I have 8 other systems that are hardwired, at different geographic locations and all connect fine. I have not made any changes on the server side since this problem seems to be local to this client only. On the client I have made the following changes/observations. I have disabled the firewall, cleared the remote desktop cache, remove the MRU entries from the registry, verified that port 3389 is open via telnet. I have been bashing my head for days trying to figure out why this one box is not working. The problem occurs for every user on the box including the admin.I don't receive the box that prompts for warning if there is a server authentication issue but I think that is because I selected ignore at some point and said yes to continue. I'm not sure where that cache resides to delete that selection.
I am trying to change the folder properties of a applications folder from read only. I am doing this per instructions from the apps provider to prevent crashes.
When I go to change the permissions it states I need admin privileges. The only account I have on the box is the admin however I did change the name to something besides admin. The account is definitely an admin account.
My problem is that even though I have only one user account defined on my machine and it is set to "Administrator" it is not being allowed to do admin types of things like deleting folders. I tried to create a user group but that's not an option on the Win7 Home Premium version that I use. How can it be that the sole account is not the admin even though it shows that it is in the account user setup?

I am trying to set up a home server with filezilla server. I am following this site's tutorial to help secure the data flow: [URL]. After doing all of this, I get an error saying "Invalid IP address/range/mask".
Have been a LONG LONG user of Linux as a server (hosting VM's XP / Windows 7 mix) and file / print sharing.
I used to avoid MS like the plague as far as SERVER environments are concerned - probably because my first experince was Windows NT (Windows NeanderThal or Windows No Thanks) which was SO HORRIBLE that it put me off Windows servers for ages.
(Note I'm using a server in a HOME environment where we have around 8 machines (most of which are actually mine for testing -- not a corporate environment which has other considerations).
The problem now with the latest Linux distros that they are trying to be "A Better Windows than Windows". You can of course customize them but I haven't got the time or patience to do this any more. To select what packages to install / leave out now is a 100% pain and if you do it wrong the chances are the system will give errors.
I've looked at the new SUSE 11.2 -- slick and polished - bit I don't NEED "an alternative Windows".
I've just been looking at Windows Server 2008 R2 (got it from Technet) and I'm REALLY IMPRESSED with it so far. I've installed the STANDARD version - you don't need datacenter or Enterprise version for a home server.
It runs vmware server on it just fine (although I might go the whole hog and use the Hyper-V virtualisation -- need to do a bit more research).
I'm quite happy letting MS do the updates than having to mess around with Kernel compiles etc.
Incidentally as a HOME server there are some considerations that you might want to do to make it more like a Desktop OS than a pure server for example add multi-media to it.
This guy does a great job at this .
Convert your Windows Server 2008 R2 to a Workstation! - Multiboot Installation
Windows 7 VM's run just fine on W2008 server (they should as there is a lot of common code).
i would like to connect using RDC from my netbook (using windows 7 starter) to my desktop (using windows 7 professional) on the road.i have followed all the steps here: Allow Remote Desktop connections from outside your home network when i try to connect i get the dreaded "remote desktop can't connect to the remote computer" error message.
I have 64-bit PC with OS Win 7, and I'm logged as admin. But, when I try to install something or do something else, there is a message saying that: I cannot do that because I'm not an admin on this PC.Is there anything I must adjust in my PC?
I cannot get any of my Administrative tools to work I get file system error 1073741792 message when I try to use them.And when I try to use Services or Resource Monitor in Windows task manager the will not launch they just will not do anything not even give me an error message.I have tried doing a Defrag and it also wont work. totally out of my depth wit this.
Both my home workstation(core i 5 ,750, 6 gig ram) and laptop(amd turion, 4 gigs of ram,hp pavilion ) runs on ubuntu 10.10 64 bit. my development environment is centos 5.5 running on virtualbox in both of my machines.i'm in a vacation now...yesterday i accidentally broke the screen of the laptop. And my wife insisted for "romantic" vacation and in other words a severely remote place where there is no way of fixing my laptop until i get back to the city. All i have now is my wife's laptop which runs on windows 7 and a very slow dial up modem. so big downloads are out of the question. But i need some work done now and it cant wait. I have searched but i have not found any suitable stuffs for my work...So please help me with the stuffs i need ..i've listed the required things bellow....where can i get them....
1.good c compiler which supports posix standard....i have installed cygwin but if there is any better port for gcc will be wonderful.
2.llvm and clang compilers...
3.good haskell IDE like leksah(haskell does have a good windows port.
4.this is very important....a common lisp package contains slime,sbcl(gnu clisp),emacs bundle.
I have not the Search tool in the Star menu and libraries, just in IE. I have checked the tutorial here, I did everything I checked the box and it's ticked, I don't understand the reason which the Search tool is not working when I accept the changes and it starts to make the changes but at the end a message pops-up and says that some of the features did not change correctly I don't understand what's going on.
Can anybody point me in the right direction as to where I can find a Maxtor Drive Diagnostic tool as I seem to be getting a lot of errors on my drive, Have tried Google but got lost in the thousands of links.
