Windows Server R2 stop working. Cannot map network drive with my Win 7 client.

Hi to everyone.
I had a problem for quite some time time and even i tried to solved it till now unfortunately seems unreachable.
I have a 2008 R2 server which is used as SQL 2005 server. My application program shared from the server. My win 7 client use a map network drive to access my share folder from my windows server. Suddenly my clients lost my connection. Since then i
cannot connect to the folder and i got the message
Windows cannot access \\Server\Storage
Check the spelling of the name. Otherwise there might be a problem with your network. To try to identify and resolve network problems, click Diagnose.
Details: Error code: 0x80070035 The network path was not found.
I check out my share permissions, all seems ok. I also check out firewall, services, TCP/IP, share folders, really almost everything but still nothing.
Does anyone have any idea how to resolve the problem.

Yes what seems to happened is due to virus infections.
This problem started 2 weeks a go. First i had network connection error with my client. Them my application had respond errors. Finally i lost my network drive.
I realize that the problem was due to virus. My old antivirus program doesn't s scan any threats so i uninstalled it, and i installed Panta antivirus and i clean up my server and my clients from virus. I am sure that both are clean from virus. My antivirus
program runs every day with no traces of infections.
Since then i cannot see my share folders on my server side and i cannot map network drive.
One thing that i want to avoid is re-installation of windows server 2008 R2.
Can anyone help about this
Thanks

Map Network drive in Windows 8.1

Hi Guys,
I was suffering a weird problem about mapping network drive in Windows 8.1.
I ran the command "net use ...." to map a network drive and the command was running successfully. Then I used the "net use" command to check the status for the network drive mapped before, it showed good. But when I opened "my computer",
I couldn't see the network drive mapped before in the explorer.

Hi,
After you created the mapped network drive with "net use", are you able to find the mapped driver letter information in the registry HKCU\Network?
Please also try to map the network drive via GUI tool under Explorer "Map network drive" option, check the result.
for net use command, please make sure that you've set the correct parameters

Windows explorer keeps computing items after accessing a mapped network drive

Our organization has decided to upgrade to windows 7 but we are running into a problem with windows explorer green progress bar hanging after accessing a mapped network drive. When you try to go back to computer or access the control panel after going
3 or more folders deep into the mapped drive, windows explorer just keeps searching.
When you expand the arrow in the address bar it states that it is computing items and never stops.
The only way around this is to right click on libraries and select reset back to defaults and everything is back to normal.
We are deploying this image of windows 7 to over a 1000 computers and we cannot have this problem lingering, does anyone have a solution to resolve this issue. This does not happen in Windows XP.
We have tried to turn off windows search and remote differential compression and this does work but the problem is that you lose all search capabilities in windows. So windows search needs to be enabled. We also tried to adjust the MTU, change GP settings,
and nothing seems to work except to turn windows search off or reset libraries back to default.
We also did some research online and there are so many people experiencing the same problem, with no resolution expect they have to go back to Windows XP. That is not an option for us.
Please help us we would really greatly appreciate it.

Hi,
The issue could be related to searching and indexing feature in Windows 7. I suggest rebuilding the indexing files.
Click Start -> Type
indexing options in the search box -> Advanced -> Index Settings tab-> Rebuild buttion.
For more information, you can refer to:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Change-advanced-indexing-options
If the issue persists, you can perform the following troubleshooting steps.
1. Go to update your network adapter drivers and BIOS from manufacture's site manually.
2. If any router is involved, please update the firmware.
3. Perform a System File Checker.

Can't map network drive (1204) The specified network provider name is invalid, Windows 8.1 Webdrive 10.2

I have just 'upgraded' from windows 8 to 8.1.
I use Webdrive 10.2 to map a drive to a secure ftp server.
Worked fine in Windows 8, does not work now I have upgraded.
When I try to initiate the connection from Webdrive I get a really helpful message...
"Can't map network drive (1204) The specified network provider name is invalid"
I cannot see where I can downgrade back to Windows 8 from 8.1.
Any solutions anyone?
Thanks.

Ok I have a HP Touchsmart 6000 running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit OS. It is my 74 year old mothers computer and about 3 months ago it started acting up. First thing that happened was the internal DVD Burner started working intermitently, recognizing
her QuickBooks backup DVD files occasionally. I got her a new internal DVD burner and it worked for a while. during that time on Startup Help and Support would all of a sudden popup right away. Then recently Adobe Acrobat would
launch a PDF file about Flash and keep opening multiple instances of it. Now her new DVD doesnt work again and on startup at the windows desktop she gets an error "Windows Explorer has Stopped Working". No matter what I click the error
keeps looping. No program has been opened that causes it to crash because the error happens immediately and keeps repeating. I have tried to boot to Safe Mode, Safe Mode with Networking and have tried System Restore to no avail.
I have ran Malwarebytes Antivirus, Malwarebytes AntiExploit, AntiRootkit as well as Combofix. I have run the AntiMalware software from Microsoft and have updated all the drivers for the HP system. To no succcess.
At one point the system did load and an error came up JAN2OSD failed to start due to missing ACPI or something like that. For that brief moment Explorer stopped crashing. When I finished updating driverss though the error came back.
Please Help as she is about to cry and no one wants to make a 74 year old woman cry.:)

Location is not available to mapped network drive in Windows 8 using Synology NAS

Original Thread:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-files/location-is-not-available-to-mapped-network-drive/ca7eac5c-0e3d-494b-b488-e245978e4db9
I have recently upgraded to Windows 8.1 standard edition. I have come across a problem when using the option for mapped network drives. Under Windows 7 I would normally map a network drive (Synology NAS) and I could access all files, copy and paste, install
apps, and link media, all from within the mapped network drive. However, under Windows 8.1 I have come across a couple of problems.
1. When I try to copy a file from my "Mapped Network Drive" to the C:\Drive (OS Boot Drive), I get the following error,
"E:\ is unavailable. If the location is on this PC, make sure the device or drive is connected or the disc is inserted, and then try again. if the location is on a network, make sure you're connected to the network or internet, and then try again. If the
location still can't be found, it might have been moved or deleted."
However, if I copy a file from the "NETWORK/Network Location" the file copies just fine with no problems. And, If I also copy a file from a "Added Network Location" the file also copies just fine with no problems. And, if I copy a file from
my "Mapped Network Drive" to my D:\Drive (non OS Drive), the file copies just fine with no problems.
2. When I try to install apps from my "Mapped Network Drive" they will sometimes install and sometimes not (I am also choosing the option to run the programs as Administrator). Again if I try to install using either the "NETWORK/Network Location"
or an "Added Network Location" the apps install just fine with no problems.
3. When I link media (music or videos) from my "Mapped Network Drive" they will work but once I reboot they no longer work as if they have lost the file path or link of the original source location.
4. When I use FireFox (browser) and I set my default download dir to my "Mapped Network Drive" it will work once originally set it but after I reboot, it no longer works. However, again if I set the default download dir to either the "NETWORK/Network
Location" or an "Added Network Location" the default download dir works fine even after reboot.
While I am able to access my network drive using any of the three options, "Mapped Network Drive", "NETWORK/Network Location", and "Added Network Location" but only "NETWORK/Network Location", and "Added Network
Location"appear to be reliable. Tbh I would prefer to be able to use my "Mapped Network Drive" in Windows 8 as I have been able to under Windows 7.
More info:
I currently have UAC set to "Never Notify".
I also have Windows 8.1 installed on three different systems and all of them give me the same exact problems. One of the systems is a completely clean install with no 3rd party apps installed.
Just so its clear I am able to access the "Mapped Network Drive" but unfortunately this method of access appears to be unreliable in Windows 8 but in Windows 7 it works flawlessly.
If I map a network drive from another pc running windows 7 or 8, I can access and use the mapped drive with no problems. This problem appears to be related to the Synology NAS devices and I have researched the Synology forums but only found one thread about
the problem, here:
http://forum.synology.com/enu/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=76687
I have searched several forums and attempted to pick the brains of my local computer shops for any incite on this problem but I have been unable to find a solution/fix.
Any help resolving this is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Based on your description, we can temporarily disable the firewall to see whether the issue persists.
For this issue seems related to the Synology NAS devices, in order to get professional help regarding the product, we can contact the vendor support to see whether the issue
can be fixed.

Windows sharing (smb) stopped working

Hello,
At work we have a huge network of windows computers. I access most of them on a daily basis, and there's one I'm connected to all the time, both to the filesystem and the windows printer.
All other computers work fine but this one in particular is giving me a headache. YEsterday, all of a sudden and with no configuration change on either my mac or the windows machine, samba stopped working.
When I'm asked my username and password, no matter what I type, I get a "unauthorised access". It didn't use to matter what I typed in there .. as long as the username field wasn't empty, the windows machine would accept it. Now it doesn't.
As I said, I can access other computers just fine.
Any ideas how to fix this?

This is so strange.
I created a user account on the Windows machine and I could access it through my mac.
10 minutes later I tried again and again the same error. Even though the user account and password are correct.

BEFSR41 V3.0 - DHCP server periodically stops working; rest of functions ok

I have a BEFSR41 V3.0 latest firmware (1.0.5).
Sometimes the DHCP server will stop working. The rest of the functions are ok. I normally monitor the unit via PING and unfortunately, this won't alert me if the DHCP server stops working because the unit still responds to a ping.
Does anyone know of a fix?
The workaround is to power cycle the unit, but that needs me to be at the office and I'm not always here.

It is the DHCP server within the Linksys BEFSR41 that intermittently stops working. I do not have another DHCP server on the network.
I'm curious why changing the MTU would help. If you could explain, I'd certainly give that a try.
At the moment, the BEFSR41 serves as the DHCP server and firewall for our guest network. I keep an eye on it by enabling external ping response. However, I have found that the firewall part of the BEFSR41 will work and it will respond to a ping. But newly connected computers won't get an IP address lease. I power cycle the unit and its DHCP server will work again. The trouble is, because the unit responds to a ping, I won't know if the DHCP server is not working until someone reports it. And I'd like to be proactive about things.

Windows 7 Error Message: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library Runtime Error.... Followed by Windows Explorer Has Stopped Working

I am running a system that is not quite 6 months old, which is loaded with Windows 7 Professional, 64 bit.
The error message that I get is as follows: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library. Runtime error! Program C:\windows\Explorer.exe. This application has requested the runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the
application's support team for more information.
Once I respond to that message, I get a message that says "Windows Explorer has stopped working. Then I get "Windows Explorer is re-starting"
I don't know if the next event is related - today, immediately after getting the message above, I got a pop-up that said "An update to Adobe Flash Player is available" - and I am given the option of installing it or not. Today, I did not install
the update - although I recall having accepted this update in the past (again, I don't know if the two situations always occur together).
Is there some help I can be provided to correct this problem? I have looked at several related topics in this database, but have not found anything that seems to directly relate to my question.
Thanks! Mark

Hi,
Did you try to reinstall the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable
Package (x86) to check this issue?
What about to boot the computer in safe mode and Clean Boot to test this issue?

Mail Server suddenly stopped working

My mail server has stopped working, and I can't figure out why. This is a brand new MacMini with the latest Maverics Server (preinstalled) that I just setup last month. (We migrated from an Xserve running 10.6.) Up to this point, mail has worked flawlessly.
This afternoon I used the Server app to create a new user. I then went about setting them up for ssh access and installing a public/private keypair (this is for a git repository). Around the same time, my mail server simply stopped working. As far as I know, no other configuration changes were made.
When I go into the Mail service in the Server app the status perpetually says "Starting...". The 'postfix status' command says that postfix is not running. I've checked every log and error file, and I can only find three anomolies:
The SMTP log file reports:
Feb 11 01:31:06 mail.gloaming.com postfix/postmap[7152]: warning: /Library/Server/Mail/Data/scanner/amavis/local_domains.db: duplicate entry: "mail.gloaming.com"
This warning has been logged before, several weeks earlier, so I assume it's not a serious problem.
The other warning is:
Feb 11 00:10:49 mail.gloaming.com postfix/postfix-script[23141]: warning: not owned by _postfix: /Library/Server/Mail/Data/mta/./guid_device_maps.plist
Other threads seem to indicate that this warning is benign.
The only other problem that looks really suspicious (to me) is in the system.log:
Feb 11 01:22:52 mail.gloaming.com ocspd[4947]: ERROR: unable to get the receiver data from the DB!
I'm not sure what that means, but it doesn't sound good.
Some threads point a finger at the virus and junk mail scanners. If I disable all mail filtering, the mail server status will finally change to "Serving mail at mail.gloaming.com". But it isn't. All attempts to get mail from the server are refused.
(Oh, and I've restarted the server several times.)
The postconf command tells me that the postfix system isn't accepting outside connections:
inet_interfaces = loopback-only
So it would appear that Server is setting this. Any attempt to change it back to "= all" fails, as the server software overwrites it with "= loopback-only" at its first possible opportunity. (Editing the main.cf file and reloading postfix doesn't fix it either.)
Here's the really strange part. The server just started do this today. I recovered a backup of the main.cf file from yesterday and diffed it with the one that's not working:
mail:postfix root# diff /Library/Server/Mail/Config/postfix/main.cf /Users/admin/Desktop/main.cf
675c675
< inet_interfaces = loopback-only
> inet_interfaces = all
682c682
< smtpd_helo_restrictions = reject_non_fqdn_helo_hostname reject_invalid_helo_hostname
> smtpd_helo_restrictions = reject_invalid_helo_hostname reject_non_fqdn_helo_hostname
692c692
< mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, mail.gloaming.com
> mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, mail.gloaming.com, $mydomain
712d711
< postscreen_dnsbl_sites = zen.spamhaus.org*2
As you can see, the Server software has deliberatly started setting inet_interfaces to loopback-only and I can't figure out how to get it to set it back to "all".
Some of the other threads have suggested "wipe and reinstall", but I've spent three weeks setting up this sever and shipping it to a co-location facility—starting over really isn't an option.
I'd really just want to know why the Server software is suddently configuring the mail server so it won't receive any mail!

The mystery continues.
This morning, I decided to take a fresh look at what's going on by recovering a backup copy of my entire /Library/Server/Mail/Config directory from last month. Looking at the item capture list, it shows that none of the files in my Mail/Config directory have changed since late last month.
Here are the disturbing changes.
In Server/Mail/Config/dovecot/dovecot.conf, there is one different line.
working:
     protocols = imap pop3 lmtp sieve
now:
     protocols = lmtp sieve
So clearly, the server doesn't think we should be running IMAP or POP. Which is probably the root of the problem.
In Server/Mail/Config/postfix/mail.cf, there are a number of minor/cosmetic differences, but the problematic ones appear to be
working:
     inet_interfaces = all
     mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, mail.gloaming.com, $mydomain
now:
     inet_interfaces = loopback-only
     mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, mail.gloaming.com
Again, this configuration would imply that there are no public mail services.
Some other odd change occured in the Server/Mail/Config/postfix/main.cf file
working:
     smtpd     pass -       -       n       -       -       smtpd
     pickup    fifo n       -       n       60      1       pickup
          -o content_filter=smtp-amavis:[127.0.0.1]:10024
now:
     smtpd     pass -       -       n       -       -       smtpd
          -o receive_override_options=no_address_mappings
     pickup    fifo n       -       n       60      1       pickup
          -o content_filter=
Reading through some other posts, I also found another inexplicable change reported by other users having similar problems. The /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.postfix.master.plist suddenly changed.
working:
    <key>OnDemand</key>
    <false/>
    <key>ProgramArguments</key>
    <array>
        <string>master</string>
        <string>-c</string>
        <string>/Library/Server/Mail/Config/postfix</string>
    </array>
now:
    <key>OnDemand</key>
    <true/>
    <key>ProgramArguments</key>
    <array>
        <string>master</string>
        <string>-c</string>
        <string>/Library/Server/Mail/Config/postfix</string>
        <string>-e</string>
        <string>60</string>
    </array>
The postfix service is now "OnDemand" with a new, and myserious, "-e 60" option added. (I can find no documentation for an -e option in the postfix control tool.)
Ultimately, I "fixed" the problem by restoring the backup copy of my entire /Library/Server/Mail/Config folder, the /System/Library/LaunchDaemon/org.postfix.master.plist file, and immedately restarting the server. The mail servers started and everything appears to be normal.
But this whole experience has made me very learly of the Server app. Why did these configuration changes occur? What settings or circumstances caused them to spontaniously change to an, essentually, unusable state? I'm now afriad of making any changes via Server.app for fear it will decide I shouldn't have a working mail server again.
If anyone has any insights, I'd ver very interested in hearing them.

after upgrading to IOS8.1 my microphone stopped working. cannot make a call, cannot record a voice memo, but Siri works !!! Surely this must be software since I presume there are not two microphones, one for Siri and one for everything else. Tried resetting, rebooting, switching off noise cancelling. What else is there?

Hi there hansadj,
