Specific layout using Work Groups (Windows Server 2012 R2)

I'm running Windows Server 2012 R2 in my company and we're interested in using the new Work Groups feature for a specific layout.
We currently have a shared folder with our personal work folders inside, to which only each respective user has access to. Then we have a public folder for all the people in the company to share files freely.
So what do we want? We want to have a local folder that synchs with our server folder and to which only each of us has access. We also want each of the work folders to be encrypted. What's my problem? I haven't understood too much about the new
feature yet. So far the feature is installed but it seems to me it can only be applied to one network folder (workgroup) entirely at a time. I want to sync each folder INSIDE the workgroup with the same number of local folder, and password-protect both.
How can this be done?

Got Display driver via Windows Update for Windows 8.1 and try to use it for Windows Server 2012 R2

Hi Everyone,
the following driver cab is from Windows Update:
https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=5be01620eea95d8c&id=5BE01620EEA95D8C!138&ithint=file,.cab&authkey=!APDi54-R1Ob5IWQ
It includes this display driver:
Intel(R) Q45/Q43 Express Chipset (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM 1.1)
My problem is: I can't install this driver on Windows Server 2012 R2.
I tried the following, nothing worked:
a) pnputil -i -a intel.cab
b) Extract cab, update the device's driver in device manager, select "search for driver software in this location"
c) copy the files in system32/, system32/drivers, syswow64/ from a Windows 8.1 system to a Windows Server 2012 R2 system
Isn't it true that any Windows 8.1 driver should also work for Windows Server 2012 R2 (same os version)?
Thanks for your replies.

MFA not working on Windows Server 2012 R2

Been using MFA since PF days. Deployed it successfully many times but for some reason it's not working with Windows Auth, Terminal Services on a Win 2012 R2 DataCenter box? The machine was successfully added to my domain PhoneFactor group, I
can see and add the machine on the master MFA. Services are running but when I remote in I go right through without MFA stopping me? Any ideas?
TIA

6.3.0 has just been released and 2012 R2 is *still* not supported. What the hell?!?
"Version 6.3.0 of the Azure Multi-Factor Authentication Server adds the
following additional functionality:
* Added one-way SMS functionality for AD FS, RADIUS and User Portal
* Added .csv file import for OATH tokens
* Added support to parse phone numbers in E.164 format during import
From the directory
* Fixed problem preventing slave servers from performing MFA if the
master server was unavailable. This problem was found to exist in
all 6.2.x builds. All customers running 6.2.x should upgrade to 6.3.
* Fixed directory sync issue for recursive security groups
* Added additional logging to AD FS adapter
* Other minor bug fixes and security improvements
Known Issues:
* Windows Authentication for Terminal Services is still not supported for
Windows Server 2012 R2"
So they added a whole stack of other functionality, but still didn't get around to taking a look at this bug. I'm stunned. Is there any sort of timeline on fixing this, or is 2012 R2 just going to remain unsupported forever?

MSXML6.dll method"SEND" don't work in Windows Server 2012 and SQL 2008R2

I can't understand what the wrong parameter is.
Even because, as mentioned at the beginning, everything works fine on windows server 2008R2 and Windows Server 2003
Some ideas?

SCORM (flash Player Content) not working on Windows Server 2012 R2 which has IE11 integrated installed on it.

Hi Everyone,
I have website which contains SCORM package, installed on Windows Server 2012 R2 which has IE11 installed on it.
Flash Player is also embedded with IE.
IE Version: 11.0.9600.17278.
Updated Version: 11.0.12 (KB2977629)
When I launch SCORM (flash Player Content) from my application, it is not working. It just displays a blank page however the Title of IE is set to the text from the SCORM content.
However if I access the same URL from any other machine which has previous version of Windows OS (i.e. previous to Windows 8 OS), it is working as expected on IE9, IE10 and IE11.
While trying to find out the cause, I came across some forum which says we have to install the “Desktop Experience” on the server to enable the inbuilt flash player. After doing that also, My SCORM contents are not getting displayed.
To find out more details, I have uploaded the SCORM Package on SCORM Cloud to check if it is working there. Here again the same problem, it doesn’t work and displays
error message saying that “Member is not found” and when I tried to find out the location of the error then it is coming at
Windows.document.myFlash.setVariable(…) method on the Windows Server 2012 R2 with IE11.
When I performed “Addwatch”, it is saying that Windows.document.myFlash doesn’t have setVariable(…) method.
However if access the same cloud URL from other machine (Having OS previous to Windows 8 OS), it is working as expected.
I have attached the screenshot of the error.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hello,
I'd ask the SCORM package provider or in Microsoft's ASP.Net forums:
http://forums.asp.net/
As Microsoft's ASP.Net forums are on a different platform, we cannot move the question for you.

The test command threads.bat reqtype=sss display=yes is hanging. Verify that the Oracle Docupresentment Watchdog Server is running.

Hi! I really confused with this error. I created replication group within two servers - AD domain controller and File server. I just want to migrate some files from AD domain controller to FS. But synchronization doesn't work. I get the error
- DFS Replication cannot replicate with partner <server name> for replication group <domain>\<name space>\<share>. The partner did not recognize the connection or the replication group configuration. The DFS Replication service used
partner DNS name MyDCName, IP address <the server ip>, and WINS address <server name> but failed with error ID: 9026 (The connection is invalid). Event ID: 5012
It seems my DC doesn’t accept connection from FS. I checked network, permissions and other settings which are mentioned in this article.

Unable to Deploy Software using GPO in Windows Server 2012

Dear Microsoft Team,
When I tried to deploy a software using GPO its giving an error -Add operation failed. Unable to extract deployment information from the package. Run validation on the package to ensure that the package is correct

Hi Subin,
I agree with Prabhu that the software package you deploy via group policy needs to in the format of .msi. The company or developer who produces the application provides the Windows Installer package .msi file and includes it with the application.
If a Windows Installer package does not come with an application, you might need to create a Windows Installer package by using a third-party tool.
Best regards,

1. Will CAL Licenses works if i use Windows Server 2012? 2. What GB of RAM can be used with Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition?

I have been using Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition for my business purpose and there are at-least 30 Users who logged in into the server Via Remotely from different location. I want to upgrade my server with latest one with some extra cores and RAM for
better and smooth operations for all users. So, i have a doubt whether my CAL Licenses will works with Windows Server 2012 or i need to purchase the new one for the same?
Moreover, if i don't upgrade my Windows to any 2012 edition and stay on 2008 Standard Edition how much maximum RAM can be installed at a time? is there any limitations? if Yes, please let me know how do i upgrade my Windows 2008 Standard Edition to any other
business edition to avoid such limitations of RAM?
Waiting for your favorable and quick response.

Hi again,
th eupgrade optiuon from Standard 2008 to Enterprise 2008 was only available for customers with open value contract with activ esoftware assurance then they can purchase the step up license from Standard to Enterprise.
the only way to have the Enterprise 2008 Edition is to make th edowngrad efrom 2012 Standard to 2008 Enterprise. it means that if you purchase the 2012 R2 Standard Edition, you may downgarde to Enterprise 2008/2008 R2. th ebest way to make the downgrade
to 2008 R2 Enterprise is to purchase the current Version 2012 R2 Standard in volume licensing than you can download diretly from VLSC the Enterprise Edition.
with your downgrade you can still using the 2008 CALs.
thanks

SharePoint server 2013 Search Service App on Windows server 2012 R2 not working

Hi all,
I installed SharePoint server 2013 on Windows server 2012 R2 using VirtualBox. I created a DC(domain controller) server with a domain set up on one VM and it has SQL server 2012 SP1 installed. Then SharePoint 2013 on another VM
was set up to access the DC server. Everything seems working except Search Service App which cannot be sucessfully set up. Creation process for Search service app says Successful and 4 search databases were created and look fine. But when I navigate
to search service app admin page, it gives error info:
System status: The search service is not able to connect to the machine that hosts the administration component. Verify that the administration component '386f2cd6-47ca-4b3a-aeb5-d9116772ef16' in search application 'Search Service Application 1' is
in a good state and try again.
Search Application Topology: Unable to retrieve topology component health states. This may be because the admin component is not up and running.

Since separate DC server and SharePoint server do not work, I installed SharePoint 2013 on DC server ( so DC server has everything on it now ) but it gives exactly same result. Later I installed SharePoint 2013 SP1 and still have the same problem
with Search Service app. I spent two weeks tried all suggestions available from Web and Google but SharePoint Search Service simply does not work. Config and other databases work but why Search Service has this issue seemingly related to search DB.
Could anybody please help out? You deserve a top SharePoint consultant award if you could find a solution. I am so frustrated and so tired by this issue.
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that SharePoint server 2013 Search Service App did not work on Windows server 2012 R2.
Please make sure you configure Search Service Application correctly. You can refer to:Create and configure a Search service application in SharePoint Server 2013
I recommend to created new Search Service Application, and made a full crawl. Then assigned the new SSA as the default SSA for webapplications. Finnlay checked the issue doesnt occur now,
If all search related components now are online, to keep the enviroonment clean, you can delete the old SSA.
Thank you for your understanding.

Windows Server 2012 R2. Redirecting the "All apps" part of the Modern UI

I am building a new Remote Desktop Session Host-solution based on Windows Server 2012 R2.
I am using the new Startcreen layout export function to define the start screen. It Works like a charm. The Next step is then to configure the "Apps" page of the Modern UI. On a similar solution based on Windows Server 2012, this was done
by redirection the Start Menu folder within the GPO.
But the Folder Redirection feature does not seem to Work on Windows Server 2012 R2. My "Apps" page look like this:

Have you experienced this? And do you have a solution for this. I am stuck!

Hi
Looks like the AAA configuration is set for local
aaa authentication enable console LOCAL
aaa authentication http console LOCAL
aaa authentication serial console LOCAL
aaa authentication ssh console LOCAL
aaa authentication telnet console LOCAL
Change it to Radius
aaa-server Keefa-Raduis protocol radius
aaa-server Keefa-Raduis (NAZCO) host 172.16.200.10
key *****
radius-common-pw *****
for example :
aaa authentication telnet console Keefa-Raduis LOCAL
Now when you will do telnet to using Radius credentials, Its Should work, If radius goes down you can use LOCAL username and password as fallback method.
Cheers!

SharePoint 2013 RTM on Windows Server 2012 R2

Will SharePoint 2013 RTM trial which is available at following link, work on Windows Server 2012 R2?
Or do I need SharePoint 2013 SP1 slipstream?
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/evaluate-sharepoint-server-2013

You need the slipstreamed version. You cannot install RTM on 2012 R2.
(Note: it's not technically slipstreamed but yes, it is the SP1 media that you use and slipstreamed is a commonly misused term for it)
