Windows Server 2008 - Group policy for domain client to start/stop services installed on it

Hello Experts
I am a newbie to windows server administration , though did a Google , but ended up with these question with my requirements
I have created a new domain and 2 client/computer (A & B namely) to domain . Now A & B has tomcat server running with port 8080 , 9090 which i have installed
domain ADMIN account .
&& now i am want to start/stop/restart services enabled for domain users !! How do i achieve this !!
basic question : How can i access A & B tomcat services on DOMAIN CONTROLLER server to create a GPO and that are on (A & B)
what is the easiest way to achieve the same , (if not using GPO)???
similarly I am looking for many features : where I want to control the permission to user on (A & B ) like : If the binaries of tomcat is available on machine say : A , if the user can install (now
it ask for ADMIN credentials)
Thanks

Controlling services with Group Policy is done under Computer Configuration\Policies\Windows Settings\Security Settings\System Services.
The limitation is that system services can only see the services the computer running the Group Policy management console. To access other services, you will either need to create the services on your computer (install the software the adds the service)
or install the remote server administration toolkit (RSAT) on the computer with the service already on it.

Windows Server 2012 Group Policy Block USB Storage devices @ User Level Not getting applied on a Domain Client machine with Windows Server 2008 R2. Why?

Hello,
I have a Windows Server 2012 R2.
I have configured the Group Policy on it to block the usage of USB - Storage Devices @ user level on the client machines. It works properly for my Windows 7 client machines but it's not working on one of the machine having Windows Server 2008 R2 installed
on it (this machine is also a domain client in the same domain).
I will really be thankful if anyone can suggest some solution to this issue.
Please feel free to write back in-case I have missed anything obvious to be shared.
Thanks!

Windows Server 2008 R2 evaluation for learning purposes.

Hi to all,
what is the less expensive (and fully legal) way to build a private lab with Windows Server 2008 R2 virtual machines to practicing me to take exams for MCSA certification ? I have already terminated the 180-days evaluation period for Windows Server 2008
R2.
Many thanks

I've downloaded and installed several different versions of Windows Server many times using the same account and information, if there were a problem with it, I'm sure Microsoft would have raised a concern with me. You can't really run a business by
tearing down and rebuilding your infrastructure every 6 months, and by installing, using, and learning from evaluation installations, I am just one more able-bodied individual with Windows skills to improve the supportability of their current and future install
base. My use of those eval products has no real commercial value to Microsoft because I wouldn't pay for it if I had to and I am not using them within a business infrastructure.
Nothing in the evaluation terms of use that I have seen says you can only install it one time, ever, in any environment, and nothing in the delivery and use of the evaluation versions has prevented me from reinstalling.
The bottom line I guess is you have to use your best judgement. I wouldn't recommend continuously reinstalling to support a real business infrastructure as a way to bypass licensing. I can't tell you 100% beyond a shadow of a doubt that Microsoft
fully approves of reinstalling an eval for your own personal development needs. I seriously doubt that Microsoft would spend the time and resources to chase you down for it, though.
And I agree with Milos - you would be better off pursuing a server 2012 certification, for which there are also evaluation versions available.
I hope this post has helped!

How do I set firefox as the default browser in Windows Server 2012 Group Policy Editor?

Hello, I am unable to set firefox as the default browser despite multiple different attempts to do so using group policy.
I have:
- Set a registry command (targeted at 32/64 via a WMI query) to reset the opening command as shown below:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\http\shell\open\command
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -osint -url "%1"
- Set a powershell logon script to run (that does run):
firefox.exe -silent -setDefaultBrowser
Despite setting the above it seems the client computers browsers are not affected by the settings above. When the script runs or if I run the command above a UAC window pops up and requests that I accept the command (for the setDefaultBrowser) but even if I click yes as an administrator it does nothing.
Since GPO in 2012 has changed perhaps there is something that I am missing? Do I need to somehow disable Windows Internet Explorer from achieving default browser status?
Please do not reply if you will suggest that I use Internet Explorer Maintenance (since this function in GPO has been disabled since IE10)
My DC is Server 2012, my client computers are Win7 32/64.

The above reply does not take into account that I am trying to use GROUP POLICY EDITOR to make it the default browser.

Allow log on through Remote Desktop Services Group Policy for Domain Controllers

Hello,
We want to allow our Helpdesk Operators to be able to connect to Domain Controllers with the Remote Desktop Services. This is by default not allowed but according to many sites, it should be able to configure by using a Group Policy.
We made a new Group Policy with the setting 'Allow log on through Remote Desktop Services' and 'Allow log on locally' (as an extra for testing) and applied Security Filtering to only use it for a specific Security Group. Our test user is a member of this
security group and should be able to access the Domain Controllers now. However this isn't working.
The error message we receive upon trying to connect:
The connection was denied because the user account is not authorized for remote login.
For troubleshooting, we also applied the Security Group for that setting in the Default Domain Controllers Policy but that doesn't seem to work either. We want to avoid customization on our Default Domain Controllers Policy but this was just a test case
for solving our problem.
What should we do to solve our problem?
I hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks in advance.

Hi, I just found out what the problem was. This site helped me alot:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/askperf/archive/2011/09/09/allow-logon-through-terminal-services-group-policy-and-remote-desktop-users-group.aspx
In my case, I had the group added to the Allow Logon Through Remote Desktop Services but was not added to the Builtin\Remote Desktop Users group. After knowing this I made some changes to our situation and are now using the builtin\Remote Desktop Users group
rather than a new self made Security Group. I also added the Remote Desktop Users to the Allow Logon Through Remote Desktop Service in the Default Domain Controllers Policy as this is not done by default. By default only the Domain Administrators are able
to logon through remote desktop services.
You do not need the 'Log on Locally' permission within the Group Policies.
In short:
Add the desired users/groups to the 'Builtin\Remote Desktop Users' security group.
Add the 'Builtin\Remote Desktop Users' security group to the 'Allow Logon Through Remote Desktop Services' within the 'Default Domain Controllers Policy'.
Thank you anyway for the fast reply.
Have a nice day!

Can I install Windows Server 2008 R2 using Bootcamp? I do not want to install native, but may consider if that is the only way....

I already have Win 7 on an internal Bootcamp drive. It so far has worked well, Bootcamp performance drag is minimal, if at all. Now I want to install Win Server 2008 R2 and load a bunch of virtuals using Hyper-V Manager. The virtuals are already created. This is to practice for a certification test....
Running Mountain Lion, 2010 MP 2 X 2.4 (8 core) 24 GB RAM, all HDD slots full.

Works like a charm. Apple Supports says you can have multiple instances of Bootcamp. Win Server 2008 R2 is up and running, drivers installed (except issues with Bluetooth) and accepting Windows Updates and Service Packs.

Windows Server 2008 opening ports for sql

Hello we upgraded our server from 2003 to 2008 and we are trying to open up the ports for the sql server and reporting services so the users can access both database and report manager from their desk. we only have one location so its not like we
need people from different locations accessing it. but for some reason the users still cant access the database even after opening ports 1433 and 80. Can anyone help please

Hi
Can you explain why does he need turn off the firewall on prod. server? Running SQL
Browser service make sense if we use named instance, the OP did not mention that. Moreover if we enable SQL Browser
service we probably need to add UDP port 1434 to the firewall.

ACS any Version with Domain Controller on Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit

Hi All
Is there currently any ACS version working with Windows Server 2008 R2 domain controllers?
Our server stuff has recently upgraded the Domain Controllers to 2008r2 and turned off the 2003 servers. This didn't make our ACS 4.1.4 really happy.
I've read now serveral posts regarding issues with ACS and Server 2008r2 and hope to find a solution (besides switching to LDAP, yukk).
Thanks

Product Key for Windows Server 2008 R2 Trial Period

We have downloaded the trial version of Windows Server 2008 R2 from the Microsft web site. We have installed it but we never received the product key for the trial period.
We are still assessing if all our applications can work with Windows Server 2008 R2 and would need the time to assess the product.
How can we obtain such a key?
Thank you

Click Start, and then click Command Prompt.
Type slmgr.vbs -dli, and then press ENTER to check the current status of your evaluation period.
To reset the evaluation period, type slmgr.vbs –rearm, and then press ENTER.
Restart the computer.

Hi Tee Ee Foong,
According to your post, the gpresult showed the GPO was applied and the script could run successfullymanully in the client. Right? Please follow the following step to narrow down
the issue:
1. Change the script to the following command: add
> %SystemDrive%\Users\test.txt to the script.
2. Log on to a client with a regular user account, run gpupdate/force, and then re-log on to this client.
3. Check if the test.txtfile exists in this location %SystemDrive%\Users.
If the test.txtfile exists, the GPO with logon script is applied successfully when user logs on. But the result of running logon script achieves the goal we excepted or not which
is still not sure.

Installing Forms 11g 64bit on Windows Server 2008 64bit

Hi,
we are trying to install Forms 11g 64 bit with WebLogic 64bit on windows Server 2008 64bit and followed the short checklist of Jan Carlin :
- installed JDK 64bit
- installed WLS1032-generic
- started installation of Forms/Reports
Installation of Software worked fine and the configuration part did create the domain, but starting the domain fails (hang).
Info in Log-File :
=========================================================
oracle.as.provisioning.util.ConfigException:
Fehler beim Starten der Domain.
Cause:
Zeitüberschreitung beim Starten von Admin_Server.

================================================
Somewhere I've read that the reason might be that the installation uses 32bit JDK, but I don't know if I did something wrong.
Somewhere else I've read that the reason could be the Path setting, which may include some directories with emphasis in the name which might be a problem for Weblogic.
Any idea or help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark

FYI,
This is related to Oracle-Bug 9370799 which hopefulls get sorted out sometimes. Having "(" or ")" somewhere in the PATH is not working. The workaround til the Bug is solved as of support is :
=================================
1) Remove the directory with "(" ")" from the System Path at install time only (this is what you have already performed)
2) Roll back the change so the System Path contains again the directory path with parenthesis
3) Copy in the clipboard the current PATH value and edit the <Middleware Home>\wlserver_10.3\common\bin\commEnv.cmd file and look for the following line:
if "%WL_USE_X86DLL%" == "true" set PATH=%PATCH_PATH%;%WL_HOME%\server\native\win\32;%WL_HOME%\server\bin;%ANT_HOME%\bin;%JAVA_HOME%\jre\bin;%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%PATH%;%WL_HOME%\server\native\win\32\oci920_8
4) Before this line define PATH to value you have in the clipboard without the reference to the directory with "(" and ")"
5) Save the commEnv.cmd and you should be able to start up your domain having the directory containing the "(" and ")" in the System Path
==================================
Thanks for your replies,
Mark

Windows Server 2008 R2 - access from Anywhere

Dear All,
We have small business network in our institutions. Our network infrastructure is follows as,
Windows Server 2008 R2 with Domain Controller - Roles installed are ADDS, File Service, WDM, DNS, DHCP
Fully Qualified Domain Name : XXXXXX.local
Client System: Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit systems 30 Numbers.
Internet Connection: 1 Mbps download speed and 420 Kbps Upload speed from Airtel.
Router: TP-Link ADSL Router.
So far we have used our server within our premises, the router acted as a gateway and supplied internet service for server and client system. Now we want to access the server from outside of our network from i.e. domain users logon from anywhere from the
world. What are the requirements for this kind of setup and steps to implement this setup.
Thanks and Regards S.R. Karthick System Engineer

Hi,
Firstly, it is not recommended to install the DHCP role on a DC.
In addition, you can use the DirectAccess feature in Windows server 2008 R2 so that the clients
running Windows 7 Ultimate
can securely connect to the corporate network from any location without any type of traditional VPN. For more detailed information, please refer to the link below:
DirectAccess for Windows
Server 2008 R2

Susie
