Connecting to SBS server 2008 from home PC
Reply:
How do you want to connect?
I personally manage all the remote SBS boxes via Remote Desktop, with port 3389 open only from my home IP address. Others use RWW/RWA and connect via a browser. Others connect via VPN.
It's all down to preference, choice and security.

It's still down to choice.
By far the quickest is simply Remote Desktop, as that gets you straight on. But you'll need a static IP address at home for that, as you will not want port 3389 to be open to the world. 1 Step.
If you don't have a static IP, or you want another level of security, the connect to the VPN and then use RDP. 2 Steps.
If you don't like that option, fire up Internet Explorer, browser to remote.yourdomain.com and login, then choose to connect to the server. 2 Steps.
"easiest" isn't necessarily the most secure, so it's down to preference. No point making something trivially easy for you but which is also trivially easy to be hacked.

I understand what you are saying. I do not have a static IP at home so that option is gone. I think I will try VPN first them try remote login going through IE. I just was not sure what I had to do on the server end in order to accept log-ins from the outside world. I think there is a wizard on the server to allow remote access correct? Thanks for the help Jim.
------------------------------------
Reply:
Yes there's a wizard for it, from the SBS console.
VPN uses port 1723, so make sure that's open on the router that the SBS server sits behind (unless of course you already have a VPN in place).
Good luck. If you get stuck, come back here.

SBS 2011 "Seems" to drop network connection at server
On a brand new install of Windows 2011 SBS, when I attempted to set up WSUS it passed an error 80072efe and refused connectivity to the Microsoft servers. When I start IE and connect to a site out on the Internet, it drops the connection also. I have run the "Connect to Internet" wizard and all was well. All of my setup ran just fine when installing the new systems, so I was not sure where to start. I can set up a continuous ping to www.yahoo.com, or any other site on the internet, and the ping runs just fine, but when I use IE to connect to something, after about 1 to 2 minutes, the connection is dropped and I cannot connect to anything again for another minute or 2. I know now that it is not my router and not my NIC, since the continuous ping keeps ticking along without any loss of packets. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Queue messages with initialVisibilityDelay specified are never dequeued
This is a problem particular to the storage emulator - we have not yet attempted to reproduce it in production.
The issue is something like this:
- enqueue three messages with initialVisibilityDelay set to 30 seconds (TimeSpan.FromSeconds(30))
- the messages become visible at 30 seconds, and the first one is dequeued as you might expect
- the other two messages vanish and are never dequeued
We've played with staggering the visibility timeouts, so that the first is at 30 seconds, then second at two minutes, the third at four, and watch the whole thing in the debugger. The behavior is the same. The first is dequeued, and the others never are. By monitoring the QueueMessage table in the backing DevelopmentStorage database, you can actually watch as your app polls the queue, getting nothing out of it, and the messages sequentially vanish from the QueueMessage table without ever being dequeued (or showing up in, say, Cerebrata if you're watching the queue using other tools.)
This thread describes a similar (apparently unresolved) problem, though it doesn't play with initialVisibilityDelay.
We haven't built an app to test this in isolation. Is this a known issue with the emulator, queues in general, or something?
We're pretty confident in our code to enqueue/dequeue as its being used in production for lots of message handling. The only variable here is the initialVisibility variable, which definitely seems not to work as (we understand it to be) advertised in emulation.
At least for more than one message. One message at a time seems to work perfectly.

Hi, Do you have do some extra works with read and store queue messages? Or you can test the applicatin in other machines and looks if you can reproduce this problem. please post a test application in skydrive if convenient.

I'm sorry I never replied to this at the time. The emulator was the one prior to the latest release - I guess that was November 2011?
The issue seemed to be an interaction with TPL and enqueue/dequeue. In particular, our message loop would get a message off the queue, read it, and call a message handler which would invoke the actual code which would do the work.
The handler was wrapping the work in a new task (e.g. Task.Factory.StartNew, etc.).
The effect of this was what I described above. We never built a reproduction case, since removing two lines of code resolved the issue, and since the use of TPL in this case was logically incorrect for our scenario, anyway. I still don't understand why this would be the case - from the perspective of the message loop looking for messages on the queue, it seems like the only difference would be that in the failure case the handler would return much more quickly than in the success case.
The other thing to know was that the code being invoked in the task was itself dropping messages to a queue.

Then you must not read much on the TechNet or Answers forums; there are plenty of cases of people having problems after running CCleaner. I am not (nor is anyone else) saying that there's going to be a problem every time it's run, but how many unbootable or problematic PC's do you need before you quit using something? Your PC, your choice. After my problems with it years ago, and plenty of other posts in these forums and in the newsgroups I subscribe to, I've decided to not use it anymore. My PC, my choice :-)

TCP receive window auto tuning effectiveness in windows 7 for HTTP downloads with mobile broadband connections

I would like to discuss about TCP receive window auto tuning effectiveness in windows 7 for HTTP downloads with mobile broadband connections. i have experienced highly varying receive window when mobile broadband connection used for HTTP download.
1. initial receive window is very low and keep throughout the session without changing resulting low download speed.

Microsoft poor practices on retiring exams!
I don't think it's fair to technology workers that Microsoft retires certification exams before the actual underlying product that the certification relates to reaches its end of support date. Employers still want their employees to obtain certifications in products that a company uses in the field.
For Example: The extended support end date for SQL 2008 R2 products is July, 2019 but Microsoft is already announcing that it is retiring the exams in July 2013. The R2 products may have been released in July, 2010 but not all the books, training materials, and training courses were even available from either MS &/or other vendors/publishers at that release date.
Personally, I think it should be left up to the individual to decide when to study and when to take the tests and Microsoft should change its policy and allow the tests to be taken as long as the product is in extended support or maybe even up to a year after extended support has ended since some consumers and companies are just not going to switch at MS timetable and thus still have a need for skilled workers. It seems as if MS is too overbearing, too controlling, and way too rigid in its ways as well as tone deaf to its primary customers (i.e. the people that keeps its products running in the field) and unresponsive. MS seems to set completely unrealistic policies on certification timetables and the retiring exams--as if--the people or "committee" determining this agenda are absolutely out-of-touch with outside world reality and totally out-of-sync with the real world of computers, companies, IT, and skilled IT workers and their needs. Perhaps they would do well by listening to their customers instead of being an insular monolith that is unreceptive to changes.
Additionally, Microsoft should not be running policies which unfortunately could be perceived as that which may result ultimately in the actual undermining of the computer industry by lowering the quality of its skilled workforce via barring people from taking required certification exams by retiring the necessary exams related to products that are still used by companies in the field and for which workers still need training and certifications throughout the full support life cycle. Retiring tests too early is counter-productive to having a high quality IT industry and the corresponding trained/certified qualified skilled workers. Microsoft should end its anti-education policy of retiring exams much too early and adopt a more favorable approach towards education & certification in the technology industry.
P.S. Microsoft People, let's not make a federal case out of this or some future EU action…just change the damn policy to one that's more workable and fair to all, as well, one that leads to quality improvements across the board per companies, workers, new rising technologies and new rising skill levels of the workforce—such which—requires changes to Microsoft's policies of retiring tests.
I don't see why Microsoft retires it's exams at all before a product. It doesn't make any sense!

Why should certifications be linked to standard product support? You don't need a certification to support a product?
Yes certification in a product helps to get employment however if I was interviewing a candidate for a position (which I do frequently), I would be concerned if they only got their certification 6-8 years after a product was released. I'd also be concerned if they only got their certification a year before a products support was due to expire. This would indicate to me that they don't have the relevant experience in a product required to support it, especially if a products support lifecycle was about to expire.
I would also place a candidate with certifications in newer technologies (such as SQL Server 2012) over someone who has only just got their SQL Server 2008 certification as a 2012 certification indicates that a candidate keeps up with technology whist a candidate with a recently gained certification in 2008 would indicate that they don't keep up with technology or don't have the experience required to support a product.

Your comments are really funny to read, the way you discount SQL 2008 certifications as being old and useless in an interview compared to a SQL 2012 certified professional.
Especially since it seems you are still proud enough of your MCSD (.NET 1.1, VS 2003) and MCDBA (SQL 2000) certifications to still put them in your message footer.

Yes indeed I am however I'm not complaining that I only have 12 months to get my 2008 BI certification otherwise I'll miss out on getting MCSA: SQL Server 2008 and MCSE: SQL Server 2008 despite the fact that this requirement was only added a couple of months ago!
BTW, I have my DBD and DBA in 2005 and 2008, and the only reason I don't have 2012 is because I haven't got around to it (yet).

Hi, Christy!
Please keep in mind that none of your past certifications are ever retired. Instead, the exams are retired so that no one can take them. You will take your .NET 1.0 certifications to the grave. You are certified for .NET 1.0 with VS 2002. I am (embarrassingly) certified in Microsoft FrontPage 98 for life.
I agree with you that Microsoft is really dropping the ball by retiring their .NET 4.0 exams so early. Microsoft just release VS2010/.NET 4.0 two years ago! It's naive for Microsoft to assume that companies instantly upgrade their development and server environments as soon as Microsoft releases their newer versions of their products. To add to the confusion, new releases of ASP.NET MVC and EF continue to come out of Microsoft every six months; how do you study for these topics which are not attached to a particular version of .NET?
Many companies are still using .NET 3.5 with VS 2008 because the newer tools haven't passed internal verification or been implementation by deployment teams. I see this first hand when asking students each week what they use.
This week, I am teaching SSIS 2008. My students told me they have SQL Server 2005, 2008, 2008 R2 in their environments and almost everthing I cover is available in all three versions, even 2012.
I passed my first developer exam in 1998. Since then, I've never seen Microsoft set retirement dates on the latest developer exams while newer exams were not yet available. Following this pattern, you can count on the .NET 4.5/VS 2012 developer exams to be announced for retirement in 2014, officially retiring in 2015. Unfortunately, you can also count on some people commenting on this forum stating, "There is nothing wrong with that. Microsoft can do no wrong."
It is something to think about.

Isn't it would be better to make windows updates (for 7 and 8) with size about 50Mb (each) instead small fixes (500Kb) and large SPs?
Hi
I'm not sure what you mean?
An update is usually a fix for a known problem, a security update, etc.
The size of the update depends on the programming code needed to create and install the update.
A Service Pack (SP) is a collection of all updates since the last Service Pack was released or since Windows was first installed.

Hello,
I already mentioned this in your previouse post: this forum has nothing to do with linux.
So please do not ask any more linux related questions in these forums.
To answer your question: Visual Studio is a development program which should not be installed on any linux server.
it's further more aimed for asp.net and mssql which is not well supported by linux neither.
So in short: no Linux and Visual Studio do not go together.

Linux supports mysql and php perfectly fine (mostlikely even better then Windows).
However Visual Studio is more made for developing asp.net if you ask me.
the files you make (php , sql etc) are however unrelated to visual studio --> that simply means the "host" has to support that scripting type (and has little to do with what program you created them).

Sandeep - Each server's distinguished name contains a reference to the active directory domain name that it belongs in. You could simply filter your results or your query to servers that contain "dc=company,dc=com" (or whatever works for your situation.) Or, if the objects you return via c++ have the DN as a property, you could filter in that method as well.

It will give the parent domain and then connection to it and using this filter "msExchExchangeServer", i get the list of exchange server of both child and parent domain. How to identify which belong to child and parent. The "cn" property give only the name of exchange server but not the name of domain to which belong.Is their any other property of the filter which will give me the domain name of fully qualified name of all the exchange server.

When I run the scripts from the 2 CAS servers in the active environment it works fine.
However when I run the scripts in the passive node enviroment it fails. It connects to the CAS server in the passive environment and when i run the enable-mailbox command i get an error "load balancing failed to find a valid mailbox database"
Any ideas?
I have tried some fixes from several sites. I have also tried Connect-Exchange Server to point to one of the CAS servers on the Active enviroment. Ran the command and it fails.

I have Windows 7. But, now that I am starting college, I can upgrade Windows 7 to "Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate Upgrade 32/64-bit (English)". Will this be okay?
Reply:
Installing a different edition of Windows 7 allows you to use more or less fetures according to the edition you're going to install; as you know, the Ultimate Edition is the most complete and full featured edition of Windows 7.
Remember that you cannot upgrade a 32 bit operating system to a 64 bit one: you must verify that your computer can support the installation and the execution of a 64 bit operating system (i.e.: you must have a 64 bit CPU and 64 bit drivers for all the devices installed in your system) and you have to perform a full backup of your data, since you have to perform a full installtion of the operating system when moving to a different architecture (from 32 bit to 64 bit and viceversa).

i am facing issue with DNS server which is configured on windows server 2008 and Active directory is also installed on the same server. Some of the client pc's are not able to access intranet address of application servers by name ie:- myname.india.com(where myname is server name & india.com is domain name) but server is accessible thru IP address . I have already done entry in forward lookup zone and also created pointer in reverse lookup zone. All clients are taking IP from DHCP server which is on different server, DHCP server is providing right IP address of DNS server and gateway to the client. This problem comes to few of the users at a time and at same point of time another user is able to access the same address, ipconfig /release ipconfig /renew fixes the issue but its really irritating.
I don't want to put host entry on client system
Most of the application servers have Linux/centos & static IP addresses. We are using one IP for two or more intranet address ie-
10.0.0.1 for new.india.com & old.india.com for which cname has been create, but issue is still there.
we have made DNS entry in /etc/resolv.conf in linux based system and DNS entry in windows based system which is having static IP but issue is still there

Hello,
please post an unedited ipconfig /all from the DC/DNS server and a client with problems.
What i do not complete understand, is the webserver located in the LAN or the internet?

Hi Anant 4,
Thanks for posting here.

It sounds like we got rogue DHCP in our network which provided wrong DHCP options for clients . so could we verify the "DHCP server" value form the "ipconfig /all" results where generated form problematic client when issue occurred ? and compare it with same result's where form normal client .
Meanwhile, could we try to attach a dot at the end of the FQDN name when we attempt to access form clients , for example "myname.india.com." and see how is going .
Please provide the information Meinolf asked .
Thanks.

Hi,
;with CTE as ( select id, question, row_number() over (order by id desc) as rn from table ) select * from CTE where rn = 1
This will give the last question based on ID..
If you want anything else please revert.

Hi Shlomi,
This forum is for discussion by developers about writing their own Metro style apps. For discussion about using Windows 8 please post in the Windows 8 forums in http://answers.microsoft.com .
You will need a Media Foundation codec to play MKV files in your Metro style app. The codec you have is probably an older DirectShow codec. I am not aware of any existing MKV Media Foundation codecs, but it would be possible for somebody familiar enough with the MKV format to create one.
