HVRemote (Hyper-V Remote Management Configuration Utility)
- HVRemote reduces the manual configuration steps needed for Hyper-V Remote Management down to a few simple commands.
- HVRemote can diagnose common configuration errors.
- HVRemote is locale neutral, although output is in English only.
- HVRemote can configure all combinations of workgroup and domain joined clients and servers.
http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/HVRemote
In the Client and Server both in workgroup, the following things need to aware:
1. The local account on server should be local administrator
2. The hostname and IP address of Hyper-V Server need to add to hosts file of the Client for Remote access (Eg. Windows 7 remote server administration tools (RSAT)).

Tradelink on Terminal Server
The tradelink internet network connection setting by default is using a Windows dial up/PPPoE ..... connection
When a user to try to connect to trandlink in a corp. network (e.g. be hide firewall), they will got the following error. It is because the tradelink try to use the network connection e.g. PPPoE, dial up …… to connect the internet.
The solution is use the administrator account login the tradelink system, go to “admin” -> “system parameter” -> “system” - > “Internet connection” -> select “Use leased line connection”
But for the terminal server environment, there are some different:
It depends on the installation method of the tradelink (e.g. in user mode/in admin mode during the install and the user account of the terminal service). It will make the tradelink use the “Wini.ini” in different localtion
The following is the location of “Win.ini”
e.g. C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\WINDOWS (For Multiple user environments)
e.g. C:\Windows (For local login only)
e.g. User home folder H:\Windows (If User domain account have home folder setup)
The following is the tradelink configuration in the “Win.ini”
[SEDIF_Schedule]
ConnectControl=ON
CONNECTMIN=60
ActionAfterConnect=Both Send and Receive
ConnectType=CETS
[TRADELINK_CONNECTION]
RASProfile=
Leaseline=1 [The “1” = “Use leased line connection”]

How To Configure SpamAssassin for HMailserver in Windows Server 2003
- Download SAWin32 3.2.3.3, which is the latest windows build of SpamAssassin (As of September 8, 2009).
- Download the latest SpamAssassin for Win32 command-line tools 3.2.3.5
- Unzip both files into your computer with HMailServer installed under the path "c:\sa\"
- Next we will have to create a new Windows Service called "SpamAssassin". This will allow HMailServer to use SpamAssassin.
- Install the Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit Tools. This will give you the necessary INSTSRV.EXE and SRVANY.EXE files to run SA as a service
- Go to Start Menu -> Run -> cmd
- Under the command line, enter in the following line (with quotes):
"C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools\INSTSRV.EXE" SpamAssassin "C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools\SRVANY.EXE"
-
- Once installed, open up Regedit
- Go to HKLM -> SYSTEM -> CurrentControlSet -> Services -> SpamAssassin
- Add a new key called "Parameters"
- Under Parameters, add a new String Value of Application, and set the value data to (without quotes):
"c:\sa\spamd.exe -l -s c:\sa\spamd.log --round-robin"
-
- Then go to the services control panel and start up the spam assassin service.
- If there are any issues, check the c:\sa\spamd.log file for more info
- Then you might have to allow dccproc and spamassassin in your firewall
- Adjust your hMailServer settings to allow the incoming e-mail check against SpamAssassin
- And finally you might have to restart your hMailServer service for the new service to take effect.

Beware of Unused NICs (From: http://windowsitpro.com/article/articleid/96610/beware-of-unused-nics.html)
Executive Summary:
When you're configuring a new Microsoft Windows server that has multiple network interface cards (NICs), it's important that you disable any NICs that aren't plugged in to the network. If you don't disable an unused NIC, problems can arise on domain controllers (DCs) running Domain Name System (DNS). The DNS server problems can impede the performance of client computers.

Show User and Computer Name on Desktop (From: http://www.pctools.com/guides/registry/detail/370/ )
This tweak will rename "My Computer" to "Username on Computername" making it simple to determine which computer you are logged on to and which username you are logged on as.
|
Using REGEDT32.EXE (this is necessary for REG_EXPAND_SZ) open your registry and find the key in the settings section below. Then continue following the steps for your Windows version.
For Windows NT
Delete the existing value called "No Name" and add a new REG_EXPAND_SZ value with an empty value name and set the value to "%USERNAME% on %COMPUTERNAME%".
For Windows 2000
Rename the value named "LocalizedString" to "LocalizedString.old". Create a new REG_EXPAND_SZ value named "LocalizedString", and copy the contents of the original value to the new value except change the words "My Computer" to equal "%USERNAME% on %COMPUTERNAME%". For example, the new "LocalizedString" value may equal "@C:\WINNT\system32\shell32.dll,-9216@1033,%USERNAME% on %COMPUTERNAME%".
For Windows XP or Internet Explorer 6.0+
Rename the value named "LocalizedString" to "LocalizedString.old". Create a new REG_EXPAND_SZ value named "LocalizedString", and set the value to "%USERNAME% on %COMPUTERNAME%".
Exit the registry editor, click on your desktop and press F5 (for refresh). The "My Computer" icon should now be rename to "Username on Computername".
Note: Users of Internet Explorer 6.0 or greater should use the method for Windows XP.

Microsoft Active Directory Topology Diagrammer
The Microsoft Active Directory Topology Diagrammer reads an Active Directory configuration using ActiveX Data Objects (ADO), and then automatically generates a Visio diagram of your Active Directory and /or your Exchange 200x Server topology. The diagramms include domains, sites, servers, administrative groups, routing groups and connectors and can be changed manually in Visio if needed.
