It appears to be on port 8333

So it sounds like I need to run it on a different pc?

Hi, Thanks for replying to my post. I tried intstalling on a different desktop PC. It appears that VMware doesn't even use IIS for accessing the console via web page. I think I must be lookng in the wrong place to fix this!

Hi fellas, I have made a big mistake. I have an application server, which at the moment hosts our Room booking system. It's other purpose is to act as a VMware server. Up until recently, everything has been working fine. A member of staff asked me to add a webpage that he created to an Intranet, which I lack experience in. I tried to add it through IIS, couldn't get that working, and now the VMware server console won't open either. It just says the standard 'Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage'. I have tried completely removing and reinstalling VMware, to no avail. Does anyone have any suggestions? The intranet isn't as important as getting the VMware back up and running. Incidentally, the vmware is only hosting an XP image running some stand alone software, so it's not like it's one of our main servers or anything. But I need it working for future images. Thank you in advance for any advice.

Just add the repo cydia.myrepospace.com/Hackstore/, then install 'Frash'.

I have been keeping well up-to-date with this. Mine hasn't been very buggy at all (on Iphone 4g 4.0.1FW). I can't believe how smooth the JB has gone. Installous is working quicker than ever, as is Cydia. I even installed Flash using WinSCP so I could browse flash websites. The Iphone 4 finally feels complete! Very happy. Now just waiting for decent full HD themes.

transfer a domain controller to new hardware
Gardinho replied to Gardinho's topic in How do you do....it?
I think it's just down to GPO being viewed in policy management on server 2008. I hope so anyway! Everything seems to be working well, but I haven't yet demoted the old DC. I'm a little nervous to after the issues I've had. -

Gardinho replied to Gardinho's topic in How do you do....it?
OK, so that is now resolved. everything has been transferred, but the group policies are not accessible on the new dc. There is no object tab, security tab or group policy tab when I right click on the domain in AD. Any help is greatly appreciated, -

Do I run this on the new DC or old one? -
transfer a domain controller to new hardware

further update: There is a problem with DNS on my new server. nslookup works on the old server, but on the new one i get: default server : unkown address : fe80:b881:f2ca:d1ae:d6fa also, if I right click on the dns server, in the dns console, on the interfaces tab, all ip addresses is ticked but the ip addresses in the box are: fe80:b881:f2ca:d1ae:d6fa and it's own ip address. Can anyone help me configure the new domain conrollers DNS settings? Something is stopping the replication, and it;s definitily in here somewhere! Many thanks -

Update for those who are interested, or come across this in future: I deleted the DNS entries for the new DC and demoted it using the force command. The old DC would then logon, albeit very slowly. I then used ntdsutil.exe to seize the FSMO roles back to the old server. I reconfigured DNS and things started to work again. I promoted the new DC again, moveid the FSMO roles and have left it replicating. People are telling me that everythings working fine, but I checked before and SYSVOL and NETLOGON had not yet been transferred. Fingers cross that will happen over night. I'm back in there tomorrow to move shares etc. I don't plan to demote the old server for at least a week! I'm not totally relaxed that I'm out of the woods yet. -

I have taken a backup before I began the whole migration process, but now the old DC will not log on. I think this all started when I tried to get the sysvol and netlogon shares to replicate. I followed a guide to change the burflag registry key to D2(non authorise). Either that or a problem with DNS. This is a nightmare! Before I did that, I took a copy of the sysvol folder. Is there a way to restore this to the new dc? -

I have ran that, nothing new to report. Is it safe to delete the DNS zones and reconfigure DNS? -

AD was present. The new server does point to the old one. I have a feeling I have made a schoolboy error and deleted a dns entry (host or other entry) from within the forward lookup zone. I'm beginning to think of cutting my losses. Thanks for your help. -

This is in the DNS event log: The DNS server encountered error 32 attempting to load zone stmargaretmarys from Active Directory. The DNS server will attempt to load this zone again on the next timeout cycle. This can be caused by high Active Directory load and may be a transient condition. -

gateway is the old server, gateway1 is the new server. Thanks for your reply. I can still access DNS on the old server, from the new server. -

Gardinho replied to Gardinho's topic in How do you do....it?
Well, it has now hit the fan - BIG TIME! I can't logon to the old server. The system cannot log you on due to the following error: the specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted. DCDiag now tells me there are NO GC servers. Heeeelllpppp!!! -

Follow up information: event log The File Replication Service is having trouble enabling replication from GATEWAY1 to GATEWAY for c:\windows\sysvol\domain using the DNS name GATEWAY1.stmargaretmarys.local. FRS will keep retrying. Following are some of the reasons you would see this warning. [1] FRS can not correctly resolve the DNS name GATEWAY1.stmargaretmarys.local from this computer. [2] FRS is not running on GATEWAY1.stmargaretmarys.local. [3] The topology information in the Active Directory for this replica has not yet replicated to all the Domain Controllers. It's been doing this for a couple of hours now. Can anyone help? -

Hmmm.. I'm a little stuck then. How about removing DNS on the old DC and pointing it to the new one? It does sound like a DNS issue to me, but clearly I may be wrong! -

Gardinho replied to Gardinho's topic in How do you do....it?
The new server and the old server are both global catalog servers. They are the only servers on the domain. The event logs aren't showing any errors. For some reason, netlogon and sysvol have not been replicated. Should I try removing and re-installing DNS? Or should I wait to see if it replicates?
