Windows 2008 R2 cluster and FTP-connection

Hi,
We have windows 2008 r2 server cluster. There is a resource which is connected by the third part
via ftp. When they establish the connection, there is configured ip-address to certain node.
When we manage cluster, it might happen that the resource is left on the other node and when they
establish next time the ftp-connection, it says that can't connect. I've made similiar usernames with
similiar passwords on both nodes.
Is there a possibility to configure the environment so, thta ftp-connection is not depend on which
node the resource is?

Hi Peter Castle,
When you want to keep the session on one server you must use the Single Affinity option.

The IP address that appears in source network address all belong to VPN clients. And it looks like its only happening with 4-5 IPs, all of which are VPN clients. These clients shouldn't be connecting to anything on this server, which is why its puzzling.
Our DC is Windows 2008 and the VPN server is another member server on the domain. I suspect the issue is at the client PCs since there are many other VPN clients connected that don't generate the event ID.
Can anyone tell what the issue might be?
Thanks.

Hi Rayminette,
There are multiple login sources that could possibly be generating the errors:
FTP logins - check your FTP log to see if login failures are showing up at the same time.
Logins via Basic Authentication over http or https (simple, but possibly dangerous, way to password-protect a web site).
ASP scripts.
This logon type 8 indicates a network logon like logon type 3 but where the password was sent over the network in the clear text. Windows server doesn’t allow connection to shared file or printers with clear text authentication. The only situation
I’m aware of are logons from within an ASP script using the ADVAPI or when a user logs on to IIS using IIS’s basic authentication mode. In both cases the logon process in the event’s description will list advapi. Basic authentication is only dangerous
if it isn’t wrapped inside an SSL session (i.e. https). As far as logons generated by an ASP, script remember that embedding passwords in source code is a bad practice for maintenance purposes as well as the risk that someone malicious will view the source
code and thereby gain the password.
Reference from:
What is the source of thousands of 4625 Logon Failure errors with Logon Type 8 (NetworkCleartext)?
I hope this helps.

Problems with RH 8 and Windows 2008 64-bit servers with IIS7?

I have been informed that my company's servers are being upgraded to Windows 2008 64-bit servers with IIS7, from Windows 2003 & IIS6. Probably will be online in April 2011.
I have a project created using WebHelp, RoboHelp HTML v5. I have RoboHelp HTML v8 (haven't had a chance to use it yet). We are currently using IE7 on XP. Does anyone have any info on issues with RoboHelp v8 WebHelp projects running on Windows 2008 64-bit servers & IIS7 that I need to be concerned about? I thought I should convert the project developed using RH 5 to and RH 8 project, then FTP it to the new server when it becomes available.
Any helpful info would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Alden

Acrobat 8 is not certified for Win7, particularly the x64 version. If you got the installation to go, the first step is to update AA8 to at least AA8.2. The x64 with XP required at least AA8.2 and I suspect that has not changed. I would suggest updating to the latest, either from the help menu (until no more updates are available) or by downloading the updates from the adobe.com>downloads page. For the latter, download ALL updates after your current version and install them in ORDER. They are not cummulative in most cases. You only need to reboot after the final update. The updates may get you going. If not, you may simply have to upgrade to AA9 or search for what others have been able to do in your situation.

FTP in Windows 2012 Failover Cluster

Hi,
Understand that Windows 2012 is having much improved Failover Clustering features,however i have faced issues when i configured FTP in Windows 2012 Failover Cluster.
1) As per the process configured the shared disk for FTP data path.
2)Installaed FTP feature in both Nodes of Clustert
3)Finally created the Generic Service in Cluster Roles for FTP Service.
After the configuration i found everything working fine but when i try to failover the FTP role found that FTP resource is not moving smoothly. Also i observed that Microsoft FTP service gets in to "starting" mode in the destination Node. To run the FTP
resource Microsft FTP service should be in Started mode.
This happens only when we try to failover else it works fine if you start freshly.
Have any one tried this? Any clue about such issue ?
Regards:Mahesh

Hi,
In earlier versions of Internet Information Services, Microsoft provided generic resource monitor components to support high availability Web server instances by using the Microsoft Clustering infrastructure. However, custom code was needed to fully realize
the potential of this solution. Also, the generic scripts that Microsoft provided did not satisfy customer needs.
From IIS 7 to configure IIS in a clustered environment by using Windows Server failover clustering, you have to use a custom (scripting) code to enable such a high availability scenario.
Note:
We recommend that administrators carefully evaluate the use of Network Load Balancing (NLB) instead of using failover clustering as the primary and preferred method for improving the scalability and availability of Web applications that have multiple servers
that are running new IIS (from IIS 7) . One benefit of NLB is that all servers can actively participate in the concurrent handling of incoming HTTP requests. Another benefit is that in an NLB IIS environment, it can be much easier to support rolling updates
and rollbacks while still providing high availability of Web applications.
To configure high availability for IIS FTP servers using Failover Clustering:
Install the Web Server role on all cluster nodes.
Install the Failover Clustering feature on all cluster nodes and create the cluster.
Set up a file share that will be used for IIS shared configuration
Configure the IIS shared configuration on all cluster nodes
Configure Offline Files for IIS Shared Configuration on all cluster nodes
Configure the FTP site and specify the location of its content on one cluster node
Configure high availability for your FTP site by creating a generic script in Failover Cluster Manager
For more detailed configuration procedure please refer to following MS articles:
Note: I didn’t find IIS 8 in Windows Server 2012 failover cluster configuration guide, below guide was published for II 7 in Windows server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2, but its basis configuration procedures should also apply to Windows Server 2012.

Best Practice - IPv6 Turn Off? Windows 2008 (and R2) Servers

Hi,
I work for a large organization. We have close to 10,000 servers globally. A question has come up if we should disable IPv6 on our Windows 2008 servers. Our network is not yet capable of using IPv6.
It seems like you have to go out of your way to disable IPv6; therefore, I would assume that it is best to leave IPv6 turned on.
Does anyone have any thoughts about this. It would be most helpful to have links to pros/cons - best practice.
Thank you.

No, do not disable IPv6. There is no reason to do so unless you have a very specific application issue which is highly unlikely (although there are a few documented ones out there).
http://blogs.technet.com/b/ipv6/archive/2007/11/08/disabling-ipv6-doesn-t-help.aspx
http://blogs.technet.com/b/jlosey/archive/2011/02/02/why-you-should-leave-ipv6-alone.aspx
Jason | http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/jsandys | Twitter @JasonSandys
Whoever marked this as an "answer" obviously doesn't remember that bad-old-days of "Everything's on by default! It just works!!" and the billions of dollars in lost productivity that ensued from the hundreds (thousands?) of exploits that followed this
painfully short-sighted decision. You'd think Microsoft would have learned their lesson from the "IIS is on by default!" debacle, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
Best practices for system administration say "turn off the services and protocols you don't use." As such,
IPv6 should ALWAYS be disabled on servers and business workstations if you're not currently using it, just like any other protocol or service you haven't implemented or aren't using. Not using FTP? Don't install or enable
an FTP server. Not using IPv6? Why would you have IPv6 enabled? Just because IPv6 is the newest, shiniest thing on the block doesn't mean you have to use, and it definitely shouldn't require you to start hacking about in the registry to turn it off.
The only exception to this rule would be laptops or mobile devices where the user might (conceivably) take them into an IPv6 environment. Even then, though, you have to balance the "convenience" of not having to switch-on IPv6 against the risk that
your unconfigured IPv6 stack might be exploitable by nefarious patries. Even so, the fact that almost nobody has switched their internal networks to IPv6 means that turning it off on laptops is still probably a "good idea."
For example, my laptop wireless interface might make sense to leave IPv6 enabled--I don't have any idea when I'll walk into an environment that uses IPv6 and want to use my wireless. But in the office when I'm hard-connected? We don't use IPv6 so it needs
to be "off." Even if it's just a bit of code in the Windows firewall that can be used to say "just reject IPv6 traffic on x interface" is still a big improvement. An absolute home-run would be the addition of logic that allows Windows to dynamically disable
IPv6 when there aren't any NICs or WNICs that are allowed to use it.
Finally, none of this should be construed to mean I'm advising against implementing IPv6, because I'm not. However, like any major technology project you should plan carefully, making sure you understand ALL of the consequences (not just the marketing hype,)
and making sure you'll be able to administer the changed environment as well as your administer the current one. You definitely should not let a vendor (of all things) force the decision to use it upon you because it's "on by default."

Running Dreamweaver CS5.5 on Windows 2008 R2

I am trying to install Dreamweaver CS5.5 on a Windows 2008 R2 server for use within Citrix environment. The installation seems to work properly and I can open the application the first time with no errors, however, every subsequent opening of the application displays only a splash screen for Dreamweaver, then either does not open at all or gives me a Windows error (0x00005). I have seen the forum comments about removing profile data and security - am running under the local admin account (full rights) and I have cleared the profile data with no change in behavior.
As a side note - I called Adobe support, and after being bounced around multiple times (and hung up on twice), they finally referred me to this forum - ????????

They sent you here because Windows 2008 Server is not supported by Dreamweaver, no server OS ever has been. If you are using the Citrix apps to push installed applications to a networked computer the clients should be virtualizing a client OS to run them in such as Windows XP, 7 or 8. They should not be running virtualized apps in a server OS. If they need access to the server for maintenance or pushing files live, you should set up SFTP/FTPS or network access, including a network drive or remote desktop connection. If they need a testing server and they are unable to run one on the client, then a second virtual machine should be setup for them to test in.

Two Asa Two Isp and Windows 2008 R2 Server

Hello Everybody ,
If you can support my issue , I do appreciate a lot.
First of all thanks a lot for your interest ..
Here is my issue :
I have two Isp Connection ( 1 metro Eth Connection and 1 Ghdsl Connection )
1) Asa 5505 (Version 8.0(5)) is for the 1.st Isp Connection
Windows 2008 R2 server is up and running as Web Server on this ASA 5505 config.
As:
(static (inside,outside) mywebsrv.mycompany.com 192.168.5.5 netmask 255.255.255.255
And Ipconfig of W2008Srv is 192.168.5.5 255.255.255.0 192.168.5.1 (Gateway ASA 5505)
2) Asa 5510 (Version 8.0(5)) is for the 2.nd Isp Connection
Windows 2003 R2 server is up and running as Ftp Server on this ASA 5510 config.
As:
(static (inside,outside) myftpsrv.mycompany.com 192.168.50.10 netmask 255.255.255.255
And Ipconfig of W2003Srv is 192.168.50.10 255.255.255.0 192.168.50.1 (Gateway ASA 5510)
Here is my question :
I need to move my Ftp server (due to old hardware + old server issues )
into the Windows 2008 R2 Server ( HP DL Server with 4 Nic).
If I conect my Asa 5510 to the second nic of Windows 2008 R2 Server.
and give an ip address as 192.168.50.10 255.255.255.0
what should be the gateway Ip address : ?
Before I go ahead and implement :
a) What do I need to do on the Windows 2008 R2 Server
as persistent route adds with different metrics
b) Any config adds or changes on Asa 5505 and ASA 5510 regarding static routes with
different metric and so on ...
Many thanks in advance for your support .

If you do that, the second interface will work as a failsafe for the first NIC.
As far as i know, you won't be able to route traffic based on the type of traffic nor do load-balancing between the interfaces.
I guess the best approach will be to get a newer server and use it as a replacement for the one running 2003 R2.

SFTP in Windows 2008 R2

Is SFTP included in Windows 2008 R2? (without using 3rd party applications). Not the FTPS either. My web searches so far didn't give positive answer.
Thanks in advance for your inputs

You can add SFTP support to your existing IIS infrastructure, by using CompleteFTP Enterprise Edition, which has a 'gateway'
feature. You can also use it as a standalone SFTP (and FTP/FTPS) server. You only need the much cheaper Standard Edition for that.

Archiving to Windows 2008 Server

Has anybody been sucessful in setting up Data Archiving from MARS to a Windows 2008 server? I asked TAC for configuration info like they have for earlier versions but it doesn't exist. I'm having an issue getting the MARS appliance to talk the the Windows 2008 server. THE NFS share exists but I don't think the username is working correctly.
Thanks
Greg

You can archive data from a MARS Appliance and use that data to restore the operating system (OS), system configuration settings, dynamic data (event data), or the complete system. The appliance archives and restores data to and from an external network-attached storage (NAS) system using the network file system (NFS) or Secure FTP (SFTP) protocols.
Backup, Recover, Restore, and Standby Server Options(MARS):

PowerEdge R730 and Windows 2008 x86

Hello,
I need to install Windows 2008 x86 on a Dell R730 I just receive. The install stuck on the windows installation language screen, the keyboard doesn't respond, no verr. num, no caps lock ...
I try:
- several keyboard
- using Lifecycle Controller or booting onDVD
- internal usb
- the server is up to date
- disabled/actived usb3 support
on the official web page, it's said that windows 2008 sp2 x86 is support but i can't find any x86 drivers in the support web site

If it is getting stuck on the installation screens, I would suspect your installation media is bad. Try downloading again, checking the hash, using a download manager, using different software or drive to burn ISO, etc.
2008 is noticeably absent from the list of operating systems on support.dell.com, but you should be able to get them from ftp.dell.com.

Windows 2008 R2 SP1 (64bit) shared folders no longer work with Windows 7 Pro but do work with WindowsXP & Windows 2003

As of last week, our Windows 7 Pro workstations can not map or browse the Windows 2008 Server shares. They can ping the Windows 2008 server. The Windows 7 Pro machines can still access the Windows 2003 Server Shares. The older workstations running Windows
XP can still map to the both the Windows 2003 & Windows 2008 Servers. All the servers can browse to each others shared folders (2 windows 2003 server & 1 windows 2008 server).

Ok, now you're down to network or permissions issues. An unedited ipconfig /all
of server and problem workstation may help. You could also try setting up some auditing.

Windows 2008 Server and Windows 8 clients

Hey Guys,
I have had this problem for sometime now and really need a solution. I have Windows 2008 Enterprise Server running about 200+ terminal services clients. All Windows XP clients are fine, Windows 7 clients have issues when they get an updated version of
remote desktop client(to solve the issue we simply rollback the update), Windows 8 clients cannot connect and use out remote app. The issue stems from the newer version of remote desktop client (on windows 7 and embedded in windows 8) cannot connect to our
terminal server and generates an error and immediately disconnects. The error says "
Your computer can't connect to the remote computer because an error occurred on the remote computer that you want
to connect to
So my questions are, how can i update my Windows 2008 Terminal server version to support these clients, or do u have migrate to Windows 2012? Or is there a solution to my current problem which will allow my client to connect and use the remoteapps?

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Please follow the below steps and verify result.
LAN manager authentication level settings (Local security policy->Local Policies->Security Options->Network Security: LAN Manager Authentication level).
Try to change it to "Send NTLMv2 response only"
Snap:
If still face the issue please install this Hotfix.

Bit Locker on windows 2008 R2 Virtual machine

Hello there !
We have a a number of Windows 2008 R2 machines and we wish to provide an encryption mechanism for each Virtual machine.
It's a VMware environment and all the VM files go into NFS drives.
Do you think , Bitlocker will help ?
Is Bitlocker supported on Virtual machines ?
In my opinion , Bitlocker is to safeguard against any "physical" threat to a machine.
But I wanted a second opinion here.
Please help me.

VMs don't have a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) available to store the Full Volume Encryption Key (FVEK) used for BitLocker, but you can still use Hyper-V by storing the necessary information on a floppy drive. Use the command line:
cscript c:\Windows\System32\manage-bde.wsf -on C: -rp -sk A:
BitLocker is now enabled within the VM.
