Windows Network GPS Conflicts
Submitted by ladouglas on Fri, 2007-02-02 21:12. Communications | Support | Windows 2003 Server Support | Windows Network Admin (Beginner)Are Geotech unit purchased a few Magellan 400 Explorist 400 North American units that use a conversion manager to exchange data between the unit and the computer. The software will locate the units with an administrator logged on. If the user (power user) is logged on the software cannot located the GPS unit. Uses standard 2.0 usb port. The computer, with out the software running locates the unit as a mass storage device. So all conection are good. Any suggestion. We (my coworker with much more experience and I) have contacted Magellan (India) several times. We are I think black listed with them.
Move Operations Master Role with NTDSUTIL
Submitted by admin on Tue, 2006-06-06 12:24. Communications | Windows 2003 Server SupportWhat would happen if we didn't either use dcpromo to demote the first domain controller before removing it from the domain or move each Operations Master role seperately before removing the computer?
We could use command line tool to assign the Operations Master roles to a new DC.
1. Log on to a member server or domain controller with an administrator account.
2. Click “Start”, click “run”, and enter “cmd“
3. Enter “ntdsutil“
4. Enter “roles“
5. Enter “connections“
6. Enter “connect to server [ServerName]“
7. Enter “quit“ to return to the roles level

Xcopy error "insufficient memory" - found a work around with XXCOPY
Submitted by Dude on Fri, 2006-05-12 00:28. Windows Network Admin (Advanced) | Office / Business | Support | Windows 2003 Server SupportSo I have a few users setup with daily backups using a bat file as referenced in
http://www.ctunion.com/node/35
So I noticed not all the user’s data was being copied, only half the data was being copied. So I ran the command from the bat file in a dos prompt:
xcopy "c:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents" "d:\backup" /e /c /y /d
and it is setup to copy only files that have been modified with /d switch
I noticed after it copied some files that have changed it gave an "insufficient memory" error
I ran the same command again and it copied no files and returned the "insufficient memory" error again.
