Windows server with dual wan router

Hello, I have a doubtful scenario to be addressed. We had our 2008 server running on a single internet connection, but since its not reliable and has down time we planned to get another one. We also bought a
DUAL WAN Router so that we get some of the IPs without the group policy applied for testing purposes. So if we run a DHCP
server on the router instead of the Windows 2008 server, will it work? We need one internet connection as the main connection and the other as standby for continous internet access.

Guys,
This is getting difficult to follow the conversation. Let me try to clarify,..this is way way simpler than what it is being made (as far as I can interpret the situation).
1. The dual WAN is completely irrelevant to the situation. It could easily be a single WAN (single ISP) and it wouldn't make any difference.
2. The WAN Device is the "Firewall",...meaning it is the NAT device,..and the only NAT Device
3. There is no VPN,...but if there were the VPN would have to be performed by the WAN Device, meaning that you would have had to purchased one capable of such.
4. The private LAN, as far as I can tell from what I read, is a single subnet "flat" network. Hence there is no router, none, zero,...and there should not be.
5. The result of #3 and #4 mean that RRAS should not be enabled on any server on the LAN anywhere.
6. DHCP needs to be, or at least it is best to be, "Active Directory Aware". Therefore it should be run on the Domain Controller. The WAN Device should have Client serving DHCP completely disable.
7. Group Policy is applied to an OU. If a machine account is in such OU then the policy will be applied, if the machine account is not in the OU then it will not be applied. GPOs should be applied to specific OUs,...not at the "root" of the tree.
The only policies that should be applied at the "root" are the Default Domain Policy and the Default Domain Controller Policy,..and those should never be touched and left at their "default" so that you have a place to return to if GPO things go badly.
Do not leave objects within the Default Containers (Computers, USers, etc). Always create one or more OUs (you can even nest them), move the objects into them, and Link (apply) the GPOs at that level.
Hope this helps clarify things.
Phil

VPN and a Dual Wan router confusion

I am running a Border Manager 3.9 server with a Dual Wan router supplying the 2 ISPs load balancing to a single NIC on the Border Manager Server. I want to try setting up a VPN.
Whats the easiest most pain free way of doing this?
Just wondering,

Hah! Well, inbound traffic in general can be problematical on a
dual-wan system.
Here you have two issues, if the router is like ones I've worked on.
First, load balancing. You can't (probably - this is based on my
experience) set up a static NAT of one of the public IP addresses to
the BM 'public' address and still load balance. My experience is that
as soon as you do that, it forces both inbound and outbound traffic
onto that particular WAN link, so it kills load balancing/failover.
Which means you need to do port forwarding on the router for all the
VPN ports. You will need TCP and UPD 353, and UPD 500 and 4500 inbound
(and replies outbound). If using a site-site VPN, you also need TCP
213 inbound.
You will have to configure the VPN address in BMgr to use one of the
WAN public IP's. The VPN will only work on that one WAN link.

Replacing a windows server with a Mac server

Hi all,
So this is a big company with about 150 employees using PC's (win xp and 7), considering replacing the current Windows server with a Mac server.
Is it possible to give users profiles once they log in like Windows server does? So when the user logs in they get to their own personal stuff? Can Mac server do that?
Can the user also get to the default printer and send prints to it regardless where they log in from inside the company?
And can the home directory to each user NOT be copied anywhere on the local machine where they log in? Meaning that after they log out there will be no traces to their files on that local PC..
Thanks a lot in advance!!

By some standards, 150 is not "big" but a large small business :-)
Regardless, please plan and test and plan some more, very carefully !
The picture for what you want to do once looked far better with 10.6 server but that had its limitations as well.
With 10.6 server, Apple was using Samba - they are no longer doing so,
but/and the version of Samba they were using only provided NT-Domain level support.
So that would not work with your Win 7 stations either. But could be made to work relatively well with XP workstations. You can no longer buy any new Mac that runs 10.6 server and 10.6 server would be hard to obtain.
Not a great route to go.
Bear in mind that the key problem with Apple's Samba was that Samba changed their licensing,
and there's not a thing in the world Apple could do to implement a current version of Samba without violating their own operating principles and the licensing requirements.
You'll be heading into heavily uncharted territory here. Odds are good that any desired domain-functionality is not going to work for you.
Honestly, Apple appears to have thrown in the towel on directory-level support for Windows,
and the best way to support Windows workstations in that regard is with Windows server and AD.
Basic filesharing works, with some caveats.
If there's no AD involved at all, then have a look at my earlier post,
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3206725?start=47
Which worked a-ok for me but your mileage may vary.
Samba new current versions and GPL3 licensing issue:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3206725?start=75&tstart=0
"GPLv3 makes it impossible to provide signed binaries without also providing the signing keys. A few seconds of thought will reveal why Apple is unwilling to provide copies of the keys they use to sign system software. Part of locking down OS X security profile required removing anythign that used GPLv3.
Short version: GPLv3 is specifially desinged to be anti-company, and you are going to see a ever widening schism in the FSS/OSS community between GPL and all the other licenses, and you will be seeing less and less GPL code in commercial OSes and more BSD/Apache/&c code."

RV325 Dual WAN Router - Use only one IP

I have a rv325 dual wan router. I have setup load balancing on the router, but I don't want one of the servers here being load balanced. How do i set it to only use a specific WAN while everything else is load balanced?

Michael,
I like to share link that will has a step by step screenshots on how to configure protocol binding. Your source ip will be server and Destination is whichever WAN you are shaping that traffic. Hope this helps

How to join to window server with NIP policy

how to join to window server with NIP policy?

Since you refer to MySQL as the default database, I presume that you're talking about using PHP.
Yes, you can link to MS SQL Server - as long as you're willing to code everything by hand. If you're looking for automated code generation, though, the answer is no.
Even the default PHP/MySQL server behaviors are not really worth considering for professional web development. They're fine for quick prototyping, but they use deprecated functions that are not suitable for a production environment.

OS X Server as a Dual WAN Router

Hello.
I am studying a way to use a Mac Mini with Snow Leopard Server as a Gateway for our network (about 20-30 clients). I know I can use a USB NIC as a 2nd interface to the internet. I wonder if I could use 2 USB NICs to simulate a 2 WAN router. Could it work for load balance? I have 2 ISPs and my router (Hotbrick) has just died.
So my config would be: 2 USB NICs to handle the 2 ISPs connections and the integrated NIC to connect to my internal network.
As I have very little experience on MAC OS X server, I ask if I could this way have NAT, Firewall, Load Balance and VPN services.
Thanks in advance.

There's no inherent load balancing option within Mac OS X, so using Mac OS X to load balance multiple upstream WAN links is going to be tricky, for sure.
There are ways of doing it, but it's far outside of the box, and I wouldn't recommend it, especially if you're new to using Mac OS X Server.

Mac keeps trying to log into a Windows server with old password.

My iBook for some reason is trying to log into a server at work we use to share files on (let's called it Xserver). I recently discovered through logging my network traffic on my router at home, that my machine was still trying to access XServer.rr.com Xserver.socal.rr.com even when I was not in the office. It doesn't stop trying, over and over and over it goes, trying to find XServer. I was wondering why my account on XServer kept becoming Locked Out (Windows Server), and this is obviously the answer because it's not using the correct password.
How can i find out where OSX is instructed to connect to XServer automatically and keep trying, and tell it to stop?

Look in SystemPreferences>Accounts>yourAccount...and then into Login items. see if this server login is set to be automatic there.
If it's just a wrong password you need to fix, look into Utilities>KeychainAccess...see if this server is in there, remove it. Or do Keychain FirstAid.
There is an automount function somewhere, but I forget where that is.

Connect Azure Pack to Service Bus for Windows Server with Custom DNS

Hello! I'm trying to configure Azure Pack to use Service Bus for Windows Server 1.1 with Custom DNS.
All runs on one virtual machine (Windows Server 2012 R2) in Windows Azure.
I following this post:
roysvork.wordpress.com/2014/06/14/developing-against-service-bus-for-windows-1-1
Replace FramDNS "servicebus" to "mymachine.cloudapp.net", and create certificate:
SelfSSL /N:CN=mymachine.cloudapp.net /V:1000 /T
On Windows Azure Virtual Machine:
1.I'll set publuc DNS: mymachine.cloudapp.net
2.Open ports: 10354,10355,10356,10359,10000-10004
3.In hosts file: 127.0.0.1 mymachine.cloudapp.net
4.Create certificate:
SelfSSL /N:CN=mymachine.cloudapp.net /V:1000 /T

Set-SBFarm -FarmDns 'mymachine.cloudapp.net'
Update-SBHost –Verbose
Start-SBFarm –Verbose
New-SBAuthorizationRule -NamespaceName ServiceBusDefaultNamespace -Name MainRule -Rights Manage, Send, Listen
Afther that i can connect to my ServiceBusDefaultNamespace with SAS.
It's work perfect. But, When I try to create Service Bus Namespace from Azure Pack Tenant portal - in Log an Exception:
Namespace Provisioning Exception. TrackingId: . SystemId: . Namespace: SomeNamespace.
Method: Activating. Exception: System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException: An error occurred while
sending the request. ---> System.Net.WebException: The underlying connection was closed:

System.Security.Authentication.AuthenticationException: The remote certificate is invalid according
to the validation procedure.
And status of namespace - Activating.
Please help!

Hi Alexander,
According to the log, it seems that the validation process of the certificate failed.
Please make sure that the certificate is installed in the client properly.
Usually, self-signed certificate should be installed in the Computer Account-->Trusted Root Certificate Authorities.

Window Server cannot connect to Router?

I have installed a windows server 2012 r2 datacenter on virtual box using windows7. I installed AD Ds, DHCP and DNS on it. To install DHCP on window server I first disabled the DHCP service on my router and then on server I changed the ip address to static(10.1.10.2)
and added default gateway as 10.1.10.1 (IP address of router). But by doing that my server and other computer connected to network are not connecting to router.(i tried pinging router)? I am a student and I am working on a test lab using d-link router which
is further connected to main house router.
Thanks

P2V of a Dell Windows server with HW Raid

Hi,
I've got a few very large WIndows 2003 Dell Servers to Virtualize. The problem I've got is that each of the Dell Servers has a hardware raid configured (using the device driver mraid.sys). If I perform a standard P2V of the Dell Server the Windows image fails to boot because it cannot find the 'C:\' Drive. To overcome this I pefromed a Linux DD of the Dell Server to an 'intermediate' standalone server that doesn't use a raid controller (standard SATA HDD), peformed a Windows repair and then did a P2V from this 'intermediate' standalone server to create the VM Image.
I don't want to modify the original Dell Server (the one with the HW Raid controller), just incase the P2V doesn't work.
Q: Can anyone suggest a better way of pefroming a P2V on a Windows Server that has a HW Raid controller (the device driver is the problem here).
BTW the P2V 'sees' the HDA Partition of the Dell Server. Alternatively is there a way to 'remove' the device driver mraid.sys and repair the VM Image?
TIA

If you have a My Oracle account (support) take a look at KB article 1122170.1
This is an article that addresses the same problem after virtualizing a HP server (hard ware raid). It has something to do with the MBR placement.
