Hi,
I recommend you refer to the following article to configure the smtp server:
Setup and Configure SMTP Server on Windows Server 2008 R2
In addition, you should ask this in Windows server forum as this is not an exchange problem:

How to activate Windows 8.1 on a Windows 2008 R2 KMS server when I don't have Windows 2012 R2 kms host key

I only have windows 8.1 kms host key but I can't add a client OS kms key to Windows 2008 R2 kms server. And I don't have Windows 2012 R2 license either. Is there any way I can activate Windows 8.1 using my existing kms server? Thanks.

I would like a yes no clarification answer. So does this mean that EVEN WITH THE PATCH. My Server 2012 Standard edition that currently hosts KMS VA for clients running Win7, Win 8, Office15, Server 2008, Server 2012. Will not be able to host windows 8.1?
I will have to install 8.1 and use as a host?
if you have a KMShost product key for WS2012R2, you can patch a down=level Server and be fine.
(the OP didn't renew SA or otherwise has no KMShost pkey for WS2012R2)

I'm having similar issues and have a similar question that doesn't seem to be answered:
My KMS server is Windows 2008 R2 (Also is my domain controller). I want to activate Windows 2012 R2 and Windows 8.1 machines off this KMS server. I can install the 2012 R2 key just fine but receive error 0xC004F015 (The Software Licensing Service reported
that the license is not installed) when I try to install my 8.1 KMS key.
What I'm gathering from this thread is that I have to set up a Windows 8.1 host and set it up to be a KMS server exclusively for activating Windows 8.1. Is this correct? If so, Microsoft needs to fix that. I have a SERVER for activations for a reason: it
is a server, not a client. If I am mis-understanding, how do I get my Windows 2008 R2 server to accept the Windows 8.1 KMS key for activating 8.1 clients?
Thanks!
You don't need Windows 8.1 KMS key. Your 2012 R2 KMS key will be able to activate your Windows 8.1 machines. So your current set up is fine, no need to set up another Windows 8.1 KMS host.
My problem is I don't have 2012 R2 KMS key as I didn't buy any Windows 2012 R2 license. So I can't use 2012 R2 KMS key to activate my Windows 8.1.
Oh that's interesting. I guess I need to play around more because my 8.1 test machine isn't activating. I'll start a new thread for that if needed. Sorry for the confusion.

Hi.
I think I solved this yesterday. We got 1 printserver, with an alias, which we had this problem to connect to. I noticed that there is a difference between x86 and 64bits system entries in the registry...
When you are having a 64bit system, you must use REG_QWORD instead of REG_DWORD, REG_DWORD is only to be used in x86 system! See below.
Windows 2008 server R2 64-bit
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print
= ”DnsOnWire” = REG_QWORD Decimal = 1
(reg add hklm\system\currentcontrolset\control\print /v DnsOnWire /t REG_QWORD /d 1)
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\LanmanServer\Parameters
= DisableStrictNameChecking = REG_QWORD Decimal = 1
(reg add hklm\system\currentcontrolset\services\lanmanserver\parameters /v DisableStrictNameChecking /t REG_QWORD /d 1)
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\LanmanServer\Parameters\
REG_SZ = OptionalNames = “aliasname” (C-name record in DNS)
(reg add hklm\system\currentcontrolset\services\lanmanserver\parameters /v OptionalNames /t REG_SZ)
Windows 2008 server x86
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print = "DnsOnWire" = REG_DWORD Decimal = 1
(reg add hklm\system\currentcontrolset\control\print /v DnsOnWire /t REG_DWORD /d 1)
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\Lanmanserver\Parameters = DisableStrictNameChecking = REG_DWORD Decimal = 1
(reg add hklm\system\currentcontrolset\services\lanmanserver\parameters /v DisableStrictNameChecking /t REG_DWORD /d 1)
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\LanManServer\Parameters\ REG_SZ = OptionalNames = “aliasname”
(C-name record in DNS)
(reg add hklm\system\currentcontrolset\services\lanmanserver\parameters /v OptionalNames /t REG_SZ)
Don't forget to reboot your system after these changes!

Windows 2008 R2 Terminal Server.

Hi,
I was wondering about running Adobe Acrobat Std X (10) on a Windows 2008 R2 Terminal Server for two users. Anyone else that have any experience with this? Best solution?
Best regards
Vegard

Although Server 2008 R2 is a supported install platform, you'll have to be extremely careful about licensing - Acrobat is not a server product, so the only person who would be legally permitted to connect to it would be the one who owns the copy of Acrobat in question. Sharing a copy between multiple users is not an option; for that there are dedicated server-based solutions such as LiveCycle.

MacBooks can't resolve printer name when sending job to windows 2008 R2 print server.

So I am work at company in a windows server 2008 r2 and we have a windows 2008 r2 printer server. Our macbook pros are not on the domain so every time we print to the server we have to type in our credentials.
MacBooks can't resolve printer name when sending job to windows 2008 R2 print server while on wifi but works when hard wired. Any thoughts? The error message I receive is "invalid printer name". I've tried adding the printer through the advanced tab in the print and scan tab of system preferences. I add it buy smb://servername/printername.
When I tried to print on the wifi at my office I get "invalid printer name" in the print job status que.
We can just do direct printing but I would like to know if anyone has had this issue before and if you could point me in the right direction. Thanks!

I assume you aare using exchange when configuring the email notifications? What I would do is just use a normal IMAP & SMTP account such as Outlook.com or if you use a POP connector for exchange, one of those accounts' SMTP settings.
For example, I have a POP connector installed and my emails are hosted at 1and1. What I would do here is put my 1and1 SMTP settings in and use these, instead of using Exchange.
Let me know if this is possible.

How to add Windows 2012 R2 RDS to Existing Windows 2008 R2 Terminal Server

I currently have a Windows 2008 R2 Terminal Server running and I am looking to add a Windows Server 2012 R2 server to it. All I see when I google the setup is only for Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS, cant find anything to integrate with a current 2008 R2 Terminal
Server.
Can anyone help with this or point me to a blog I possibly missed?
Thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for your comment.
Yeah, agree with diramoh; as already commented. If you want user session from RDS Server 2012 R2 then you need to install RDS License role on server 2012 R2, purchase and install RDS CAL (per user or per device) according your requirement and then you
can use user session for server 2012 R2 and also for lower version.
But as you already have Server 2008 R2 RDS CAL, then with that you can simply access lower version but can’t manage Server 2012\R2.
For more information, you can refer following document.
Licensing
Windows Server 2012 R2 Remote Desktop Services
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

Windows 2008 R2 File Server - user profiles appear underdirectory C:\user

I've a windows 2008 r2 file server and few day ago I've noticed that under directory c:\users some user profiles have been created.
These users don't have rdp access to this server and don't use any ts application.
Is this a problem or a normal behavior?

Hello,
IIRC this is normal behavior as they do a connect to the server to access the shared folders.

Windows Server 2008 R2 virtual smtp server Relaying

Hey Guys and Gals,
I'm attempting to forward the Virtual SMTP Relay on a 2008 machine to my Plesk SMTP relay, but it won't allow me to set up the connection with TLS encryption (which Plesk requires for it's encryption choice).
Email goes through fine when I use port 25, but otherwise I'm not even sure it's reaching the Plesk server, which makes me think it's at the Windows Server level.
Does Server 2008's SMTP relay require a certificate from the Plesk server?
That's my best guess at this moment.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Rhys

OBIEE install problem on Windows 2008 R2 64bit server

Hi!
I have for 1 month struggled with a OBIEE 11g install on a Windows 2008 R2 64 bit server. (I have a open SR at Oracle but have not got any answer/suggestion for 2 weeks)
I follow these documentations:
Oracle® Fusion Middleware
Installation Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence
11g Release 1 (11.1.1)
E10539-01
and
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/bi.1111/e10539/c4_installing.htm#CIHDJGIH
Specially chapter 4.4.4 for the moment, cant get pass step "Specify Installation Location"
First did I run RCU against our Oracle 11g database and created the schemas for BI Publisher
Then did I install JRockIT - jrockit-jdk1.6.0_26-R28.1.4-4.0.1-windows-x64.exe
Then from JRockIT installed WLS_1035 generic.
Then configure AdminServer so thatone is up and running (even installed a HTML server from E1 to check if WLS is up and running and working)
Then start the installer (Oracle Business Intelligence, v. 11.1.1.5.0, for Microsoft Windows x86-64-bit) disk 1, setup.exe, then must I choose "software only" install. But on step 3 och 9 can I not press next, the installer says that I do not have any "Application Server" running. I have installed on E:\Oracle\Middleware but the installer can not see any application there, but I can access it thru a browser.
Tests I have done,
Install loopback adapter
Deinstall loopback
Deactivated everything but IPV4 protocoll (we have also IPV6 on all server).
Verified that we have static ip on the server
Tried installer for BIP (OBIEE) with WLS AdminServer running and without have it running.
And checked the installer logs everytime, no errors, no warning.
Is there anyone how can guide me or give some tips? I am getting frustrated after 4 weeks without success.
Best regards,
Anders

Hi!
It is the installer who not working properly, when using the "Browse", I had to choose a comletly wrong place first, and then again choose the correct installation path, after that would the understand where I wanted to install.
Best regards,
Anders

How to set up fax solution using Windows 2008 R2 Fax server role and Exchange 2007

Hello,
I don't know if this is the right forum to post this but since it is related to Exchange I thought it might be. If this is not the right place, please direct me to the forum where my post would be more appropriate.
I'm looking to set up a Fax solution for the company that I work for as we are moving away from analog phone lines to VoIP using SIP. My original thought was to set up a Windows 2008 R2 server with Fax server role installed and have it route the fax message
to Exchange 2007 SP3 so the fax message can be delivered to each user's inbox. I was reading a little bit on the Windows Fax server role and from what I saw it looks like it can only route fax messages to one email address. This not ideal for my company. Is
there a way to have the fax server role route the email to each user's inbox? If so, how can I achieve this?
How can implement this for this sending outgoing faxes as well?
I don't know if this releveant or not but I will be using Asterisk as a media gateway between our SIP trunks and the Windows Fax server.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Java 1.6 u38 stopps working on Windows 2008 R2 Terminal Server

Hello,
I have got a strange behavior on our Terminal Server Farm. We have updated our Servers to Windows 2008 R2. Java 1.6 u38 runs fine, but it stops working suddenly.
Reinstall solves the Problem, but only for several hours. Then some users are not able to use Java from Internet Explorer or direct starting JNLP Applications.
Java starts, but nothing happens. You can see the Java6 Startup Windows with the dots running and thats all.
Admin Users are ables to use Java and some "normal" Users are able, too. After reinstall all user are able to use Java. Next day all servers from our RDS Farm are falling out again.
No eventlog entries or anti-virus entires are present.
Does anybody have an idea whats going on here?
best regards,
Björn

How to check DFS replication status in windows 2008 r2 file server

Hi,
I have created File server DFS namespace between 2 windows 2008 R2 server. namespace mode is 2008. I have copied 3 TB data on file server 1. now it is getting replicated from file server 1 to file server 2. till now the data is not fully replicated.
My question is how can I check the status of DFS replication? how will I come to know that the initial replication is completed.

Scorpio. Yes you are right. Microsoft officially says it will not work. My apologies. Thanks for the correction.
Do Ultrasound and Sonar work with DFS Replication?
No. DFS Replication has its own set of monitoring and diagnostics tools. Ultrasound and Sonar are only capable of monitoring FRS.
Is there a way to know the state of replication?
Yes. There are a number of ways to monitor replication:
DFS Replication has a management pack for System Center Operations Manager 2007 that provides proactive monitoring.
DFS Replication has an in-box diagnostic report for the replication backlog, replication efficiency, and the number of files and folders in a given replication group.
Dfsrdiag.exe is a command-line tool that can generate a backlog count or trigger a propagation test. Both show the state of replication. Propagation shows you if files are being replicated to all nodes. Backlog shows you how many files still need to replicate
before two computers are in sync. The backlog count is the number of updates that a replication group member has not processed. On computers running Windows Server 2008 R2, Dfsrdiag.exe can also display the updates that DFS Replication is currently
replicating.
Scripts can use WMI to collect backlog information—manually or through MOM.

Not Able To Assign A Static IP Address To Windows 2008 64 bit Server

Hello Experts,
I've been trying to assign a static IP address to Windows 2008 R2 Server Virtual Box image. As soon as I assign static IP address to the image, either it hangs or says "Unidentified network".
I'm 100% sure that I'm using correct IP address, Gateway, Subnet mask and DNS Server details. If I use same settings on other linux virtual box, it is able get that static ip address. The issue is only with Windows 2008 image.
Here few more inputs that may help:
- Windows 2008 image has "Bridge" adapter.
- Host system is connected to corporate network via wired connection and NOT on VPN.
- If I use "Obtain IP address automatically" setting, then it is able to get a dynamic IP address and internet is working fine.
Questions:
1. Has anyone seen this issue before ?
2. Do I need to do any additional configuration on Windows 2008 server ?
Thanks,
GK

Hi,
Method 1: Uninstall and reinstall network drivers.
Method 2: If you have any anti-virus software, disable them.
You can also try set a static IP via neetsh commend.
