[Windows Server 2008 R2] Slow login as administrator

Hello,
the login as an administrator takes too long (about 70 seconds). As an user I can login faster to the server (OS: Windows Server 2008 R2). It took less than 5 seconds.
There are no unnecessary startup items, neither in the task scheduler. I also checked the registry for damaged user profiles with the file extension ".bak". In the event viewer there's an entry with the ID no. 1530 from the source "User Profile
Service". Is this a suspicious issue? How can I accelerate the login as an administrator?

Hi,
Login to the server with administrator credentials and check for any specific policies implemented for admin account.
run rsop.msc or run a command C:\>gpresult /h adminpol.html & Open html file and search for applied group policies for admin user.
Still problem persists, create another user account with full admin right and check for the difference.

Hello,
I stronly recommend you post the detail error message to us while you try to connect to SQL Server instance, it's useful for us to do further investigation.
Microsoft recommends that you do not install SQL Server 2008 R2 on a domain controller, there are some limitations:
You cannot run SQL Server services on a domain controller under a local service account or a network service account.
After SQL Server is installed on a computer, you cannot change the computer from a domain member to a domain controller. You must uninstall SQL Server before you change the host computer to a domain controller.
After SQL Server is installed on a computer, you cannot change the computer from a domain controller to a domain member. You must uninstall SQL Server before you change the host computer to a domain member.
SQL Server failover cluster instances are not supported where cluster nodes are domain controllers.
SQL Server Setup cannot create security groups or provision SQL Server service accounts on a read-only domain controller. In this scenario, Setup will fail.
On Windows Server 2003, SQL Server services can run under a domain account or a local system account.
So, I would suggest you try to open up Windows Services list and changed the account for SQL Server service.

Windows Server 2008 R2 Slow LAN Transfer (Receive)

Using Windows 7 Ultimate and Windows Server 2008 R2
Two machines, connected via 1GB 1000base-T LAN, with a 1Gb switch between... and yes, I've tried swapping cables and ports. Server has two RAID5's, a 6 platter and an 8 platter. Workstation has two RAID5's, a 3 SSD and a 4 platter. Both sides using Intel
CPU's and a RealTek 8100C chipset Gb LAN, same LAN drivers.
Using Windows Explorer to COPY a 20GB file:
Server Disk1 to Server Disk 2: >250MB/s (Server disk I/O isn't an issue).
Server Disk2 to Server Disk 1: >250MB/s (Server disk I/O isn't an issue).
Workstation Disk1 to Disk2: >150MB/s (Workstation disk I/O isn't an issue).
Workstation Disk2 to Disk1: >150MB/s (Workstation disk I/O isn't an issue).
Server Disk1 to Workstation Disk2: 91MB/s (near 100% LAN utilization).
All looks good so far:
Workstation Disk2 to Server Disk2: 25MB/s declining to 17MB/s; occasionally as low as 9MB/s.
Some of the changes listed above appeared to work for a few moments. I've seen as high as 90MB/s for a few seconds, but it declines rapidly under 30MB/s... so no fix that has lasted.
It appears there is something in Windows 7 that prevents fast transmits; or something in Windows Server 2008 that blocks fast receives. I have set the server-side receive training to disabled, normal, highlyrestricted, and experimental and the Win7 side
to off, normal, and highlyrestricted in various combinations. Again, nothing concrete to report as an improvement.
What would the MS Gurus suggest I do with NetMonitor as far as capturing something worth their time to diagnose?

I've tried disabling auto tuning on the clients with no appreciable effect. The throttling feature however appears to have had an effect - changing the setting from default 10 to 70 has slowed the transfer from 20MB/s down to about an initial 6MB/s that
has slowed even further, and is now at 3.2MB/s (3% network utilization according to Resource Monitor at both ends of the wire - WS2008R2 and W7).
Question: What does the 10 (0x0a and 70 (0x46) represent: Mbps on the LAN, or 10% and 70% reserved, or?
I'll try the "off" setting of all FF's and add to this.
In any case, having a backup server that can't be utilized due to client "entertainment media" issues is a little painful... there should be a straightforward and published method to set the network to "normal".
UPDATE:
I've tried settings of 0, 10, 70, and FFFFFFFF. 10 might have been best, but only marginally better than 70. Range of time to copy was under 7 minutes to over 8 minutes. Very small difference.
But I also tried this using Windows Explorer and a Dataset of one folder containing 12.5GB of miscellaneous folders and files - and was surprised.
- Dataset is at \\WIN7\Dx\ = = Client physical RAID5 drive D:\Dataset
On WIN7 Client: Share drive D with Everyone as Dx
On WSvr Server: Share drive D with Everyone as Dx
On WIN7 Client: Map \\WSvr\Dx to Z:
On WSvr Server: Map \\WIN7\Dx to Z:
On WIN7 Client, using Windows Explorer:
-- Copy Dataset from Local Drive D: to Network Drive Z:
-- Took about 8 minutes, with 20% network utilization.
On WSvr (2008 R2 Server), using Windows Explorer:
-- Copy Dataset from Network Drive Z: to Local Drive D:
-- Took about 3 minutes, and 70% network utilization.
Why does running the copy from the server allow better network utilization and net throughput?
UPDATE2:
I am NOT using HOMEGROUP; I have a dedicated workgroup network the client is a member of, and the server is a DC. I'll eventually try joining the client to the domain and see if that changes anything, but doubt it will so haven't taken the time yet.

HP 4250DTN and windows server 2008 R2, slow printing

ok, so here is my deal,
majority of my printers are HP 4250DTN, some 4650's and 4700's
i have tried probably every driver from universal to PCL (5e, 6), PS, all possible combinations and still running
into the same issue when trying to print over the network,
i have two Windows 2008 R2 servers in cluster setup as File/Print server,
clients are Windows XP Pro, couple Win7 Pro or Ent.
In either case when i try to install a network printer on a client computer i can install it but managing and printing
is a looooong process, if i just hit print button (in word, adobe,...) it takes about 2 minutes to print the page,
if i want to change any printing properties it takes forever to get anywhere.
i've tried this with all available different printer drivers
(HP Universal works fast but i can not use this driver in my environment because we use customized tray and paper setting and this driver does NOT allow me to customize these),
i am assuming it has to be something with printer drivers, because i am still running old 2003 servers as file/print cluster on two different servers
and when installing a printer through that it prints immediately as it should, no matter if i am on Win7 or WinXP client.
I am trying to migrate everything to new 2008 file print cluster but with this issue i am at the stand still right now.
any help much appreciated.
Thank you

I have Windows 2003 servers with the Universal PCL6 driver v5,4. It printed slower then the previous version. I manually changed the Device Settings, mainly the Monochrome / Color option. This seemed to make the print process faster.

How to recognize if application is installed using "Install Application on Remote Desktop" option on Windows Server 2008 R2

How to recognize if application is installed using "Install application on remote desktop..." option in Control Panel in Windows Server 2008 R2?
Basically, as administrator, I can't say if the user installed application using "Install application on remote desktop..." in Control Panel or he just installed it by clicking the .msi executable. I can't find anything that makes any difference.
I could not find anything in the registry. I am quite confused.
Thanks,
Aleksandar9

Hi,
Thank you for your posting in Windows Server Forum.
Please make sure that you are using category view of control panel-programs to check the application. And in addition to “install application on Remote Desktop server” user can also use command line also.
change user /install
change user /execute
change user /query
“The first time you run the application, it searches the home directory for its .ini files. If the .ini files are not found in the home directory, but are found in the system directory, Terminal Services copies the .ini files to the home directory, ensuring
that each user has a unique copy of the application .ini files. Each user should have a unique copy of the .ini files for an application. This prevents instances where different users might have incompatible application configurations.” (Quoted formthis
article).
Hope it helps!
Thanks,
Dharmesh

How can I speed up logins using MacBooks to a Windows Server 2008 environment. Logging onto the network is extremely slow. We are using a wireless connection to the network in classrooms

I work in an Education environment with Windows Server 2008. I am trying to join our Macbooks to Active Directory. They are joined but the login is extremely slow. I read that this is because of a possible problem with an OS update.

Check the ethernet link speed when connected directly to the TC.. if you are plugged into the modem direct.. and comparing that with wireless on the TC we have no way of knowing where the issue is.
There is some issue related by someone when the TC was bridged.
It is extremely hard to impossible to know what is causing wireless slow down.. needs lots more info.
What is the link speed?
Set manually and try different channels.
The series 1 cannot do 2.4ghz and 5ghz simultaneously but test on 5ghz and see what the speed is like. You will need to be in the same room as the TC.

Autologin on Windows Server 2008 R2 - local Administrator problem

I needed an user to autologin on a Windows Server 2008 R2 server.
Configured it following this guide: http://www.danj.co.uk/2011/06/enable-autologon-for-windows-2008-r2.html
In addition I added the login information by using the Autologon tool from sysinternals: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963905.aspx
Now the user I configured autologins successfully. The only downside is that now you can login with the local Administrator account by just hitting enter, as it now doesn't check the password and instead has a blank one. I think this comes from the User
accounts screen where I unticked the checkbox and also the Administrator account is listed. When trying to remove the local Administrator it tells me that it will delete the account. I don't want that.
How do I keep autologin of the user I configured but also have the local Administrator account check his password?

Hello,

Can't log in as the Administrator on Windows Server 2008 R2

Hello,
I have a windows server 2008 R2 (DCSERVER) as the domain controller and about 10 Windows 7 Client machines on the network. I also have configured a WSUS server & File Server on this machine. Everything was working fine, until I added another Windows
7 Machine to the domain. I couldn't login to the domain and got the error "the security database on the server does not have a computer account for this workstation trust". I looked up on Google and tried some tricks - mainly adding the
attributes DNSHostName & ServicePrincipalName to the affected computer and the deleting the computer from the group
(since the previous trick didn't work).
But after trying the above I observed that I can't login to my DCSERVER either. I get the same error - "the security database on the server does not have a computer account for this workstation trust"
Please help me fix this issue.

Hi,
Thanks for your post.
According to your description, you cannot login the domain from Windows 7 client.

Enabling Windows Server 2008 R2 Built-In Administrator Account

The properties box for my Windows Server 2008 R2 built-in administrator program says the account is disabled. Even the primary user account has virtually no priveliges. How can I, with a mere primary user account available at logon, enable
the built-in administrator account, or otherwise grant my primary user account administrator priveliges? Windows Server 2008 R2 denies my primary user account access/permission for nearly all changes to accounts, programs and OS features.

In some of the organisations, default admin accounts on member servers are purposefully locked/disabled through group policy for security reasons.
If you know the password for locked out/disabled admin account then there is a possibility of unlocking/re-enabling the account without using any third party tools.
To do that,
Restart the server
Press F8 and select Safe Mode Without
Networking
Log on to the server with locked out/disabled admin account with its password.
If you could successfully log on to the server then you will have option to unlock and enable the built-in admin account !
Most of the downtime's are caused because of SysAdmin's curiosity ! - Santosh

Administrators unable to write to a text file created by another Administrator on Windows Server 2008.

Why are Administrators unable to write to a text file created by another Administrator on Windows Server 2008?
--- The Administrators already have full control so how do I fix this? ---
Example: On a Windows Server 2008 (SP1): user A (who belongs to the Administrators group) logs in and creates a directory C:\foo and creates a file readme.txt in the foo directory. User B (also a member of the Administrators group) logs in and opens C:\foo\readme.txt in notepad. User B types something and tries to save the file. User B cannot save the file…an option to save as some other file name is presented. The security permissions of C:\foo\readme.txt show that Administrators have full control.
Work around 1: Explicitly add user B to have full control over the foo directory. The problem is that all the all other Administrators still need to be added (current and future).
Work around 2: Change the Users security permission to be full control on the foo directory. (this seems dangerous!)
It is interesting to not that this same procedure is not a problem in Windows Vista. (Any insight about the difference?)
Sincerely,
Ian

so there is no way to change this without literally shutting down the UAC?
I have files that I need to modify all the time, and it is very annoying to have to save as to my desktop modify and then copy and paste the file again.
I would also rather not give myself permissions to the entire C:\ Drive even specified Folders or documents, etc......
You can change these settings without bringing down the UAC

1.    Click Start, type gpedit.msc and press Enter.
2.    Expand Computer Configuration -> Windows Settings -> Security Settings -> Local Policies -> Security Options.

3.    Double-click “User Account Control: Behavior of the elevation prompt for administrators in Admin Approval Mode” on the right pane.
a.    Choose “Elevate without prompting” and click OK.
b.    Double-Click “User Account Control: Admin Approval Mode for the Built-in Administrator account”, Click Enable, Apply and then OK
c.     Double-Click “User Account Control: Run all users, including administrators, as standard users”,Click Enable, Apply and then OK
Then reboot the Server. You should now have the ability to modify any document, etc....

Slow remote request on 7.6.03.15 on Windows server 2008

Hello all,
I have install MAXDB on Windows server 2008.
When I made request from a remote computer on the database with SQLStudio requests are very slow.
For example I request an empty table :
SELECT * FROM <TABLENAME> the request seem fast.
but this one is very slow, I only replace * with all columns
SELECT ArcState, Comp_date_time, ContFlag, Deferred, SndAccount, SndAddress, SndCompany, SndName, SndType, RcpAddress, Msn, Notif, OwnerID, OwnerPB, PreviewMessage, PreviewVisible, Priority, Purged, DIST_ABORTED, DIST_ABORTEDCOUNT, DIST_OWNER, DIST_NUM, DIST_VERSION, Status_str, State, Subject, Sub_date_time, SATID, RcpCompany, RcpName, Viewed FROM <TABLENAME>
This request takes 0.3s, and the table is empty. Everything work find if sqlstudio is running on local computer even if I use XSERVER
How could you explain this behavior ?
To avoid DNS issues I put IP adress in ETC/host, I also disable Windows2008 firewall.
If you have any idea that could help me, let me know.
Thanks for help.
Yann.

Hi Markus,
Here is the result of explain.
ESKDBADM     DBM350_AC     AC_SUB_DATE_TIMED     INDEX SCAN              1
             RESULT IS NOT COPIED , COSTVALUE IS              2
          QUERYREWRITE - APPLIED RULES:
             DistinctPullUp              1
Keep in mind that the table is empty,
If I excute this request on remote computer.
SELECT ArcState, Comp_date_time, ContFlag, Deferred, SndAccount, SndAddress, SndCompany, SndName, SndType, RcpAddress, Msn, Notif, OwnerID, OwnerPB, PreviewMessage, PreviewVisible, Priority, Purged, DIST_ABORTED, DIST_ABORTEDCOUNT, DIST_OWNER, DIST_NUM, DIST_VERSION, Status_str, State, Subject, Sub_date_time, SATID, RcpCompany, RcpName, Viewed FROM DBM350_AC WHERE (((ArcState IS NULL OR ArcState != 4) AND (PreviewMessage IS NULL OR PreviewMessage = 0 OR PreviewVisible = 1))) ORDER BY Sub_date_time DESC WITH LOCK ISOLATION LEVEL 0
on an empty table, it always take 0,608s, I can type several time on F8, It always take 0,608s.
You said
"To really compare those two statements - stop and start the database between them - and you will see that both of them take the same amount of time."
I agree with you if the second call is faster than the first call, because of datacache , but in my case it's always slow.
How to explain that a select on an empty table can take 0.608s ?
I think there is something wrong in Windows2008, but I don't kwon what.

Does installing Desktop Experience on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 slow down the server / increase processor usage?

Hello.
I'm running a tekkit classic (Minecraft) Server on a dedicated server I got from OVH, Im just wondering - Im currently using ClamAV for an antivirus, But I would like windows defender.
Im wondering if installing Desktop Experience on my dedi would increase processor usage or slow down the dedi even slightly.
System Specs:
RAM: 32GB DDR3 ECC 1600MHz
CPU: Intel Xeon E3-1245v2
HDD: 2x2TB SATA (Both used, specified as different drives)
OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1
Theres only 1 indev tekkit server currently running on there, Im getting 0-5% processor usage. I may be setting up more modpack servers - but im wondering if installing desktop experience would increase the processor usage or slow the dedi down.
Thanks.

Group Policy Administrative Templates not applying on Windows XP SP3 - Windows Server 2008 R2

I have a Windows 2008 R2 domain with windows 7, and Windows XP SP3 client workstations.
I have a group policy to deny all access to removable storage in policies/administrative templates/system in user configuration (actually its in the computer configuration as well)
The problem is the policy is having no effect on the Windows XP machines. It works perfectly on Windows 7 machines.
Group policy in general is working on the Windows XP machines, as I can successfully map drives, push out scheduled tasks, and push out printers. (All preferences I know and I have GP Preferences client side extensions installed).
Its almost like the windows XP machines can't "understand" the admin templates from Windows Server 2008 R2.
Do I need to install something on the windows XP machines? What could be the problem?

> Its almost like the windows XP machines can't "understand" the admin
> templates from Windows Server 2008 R2.
Simply read the "supported on" of these settings... Vista and above
required.
