View 1 RepliesI recently set up a Windows 2003 server which will serve about 10 computers in 3 locations through terminal services. In addition to these three locations I have a sonicwall SSLVPN2000 for employees to login if they need to get access from home. I purchased 10 CAL licenses for the server which are being run in per-server mode which allows for 10 simultaneous connections.
I am nearing my 120 day limit where the licensing system will start being enforced, and it came to my attention that for Terminal Services sessions, I need TS CALs in addition to the CALs. Furthermore they are not available in per-server mode: only per-user and per-device mode. Ideally I would like to user per device mode, but then I would have to license the people connecting remotely from their homes. Then I realized that the network may show the connections coming from the SSL VPN that they are navigating through as the device the employees were connecting from. Would assigning a per device TS CAL to the SSLVPN take care of any employees trying to access the network from home, or would the 2k3 server recognize that the SSL VPN is not an actual machine. If this does not work, would it probably just be best to do a per-user setup?
One Webhost is offering MS SQL 2005 Standard Edition (Processor Licence) for US$385 per month.
Another webhost is offering MS SQL 2005 Standard Edition with 5 CALs for US$35 per month.
The first webhost says CALs are not available and that:
"A Processor License is required for running a Web server that is open to public access. Using CALs may put you in question from Microsoft's legal point of view if the inappropriate license is applied."
Only 3 people have access to the server and the website, I think, is very standard. www.culture360.org
Our org does not wish to do anything illegal. Which one is most appropriate? The price differences are very large.

But would one of those embedded Youtube-videos take up space (or bandwidth), if I had one on my site?
I don't know what they are called (that is why I called them Youtube-videos), but I mean videos that you can view on sites other than Youtube, but still have the Youtube-interface and can also be found on Youtube.
I would like my entire website to be password protected except for one file called allowThisFileWithoutPassword.php.
How could this be accomplished. Below is my attempt :
Code:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName example.com
ServerAlias *.example.com
# ServerSignature Off
ErrorDocument 404 /error-404.html
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
<Directory "/var/www/html">

Does HTTPS on a Windows site require SNI like it apparently does on Linux nodes? If it does, I've been avoiding moving a site to an existing server that only has one IP, so I may as well move it there instead of setting up a Windows node in PPA.
View 2 Replies View RelatedOn my previous server and on some other hosts, I was able to write to files (for example with PHP) without having to chmod the files first.
Now I cannot, and files are required to be chmoded properly so I can write to them.
I cannot even touch() a file with PHP.
Is there any way to have this permissions removed?
I don't want to chmod the all thing, all I want is to change the configurations so I can fwrite() or file_put_contents() normally.
I's a dedicated un-managed server, so basically any advanced configurations can be done.
how I could have both PHP4 and PHP5 work on a Win2003 server. Currently PHP5 is installed and works.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have win2003 server running IIS hosting an asp website, I am wanting to use CDONTS to send emails.
I am no pro and not really sure what I am doing with setting up the server for SMTP. I have installed SMTP Virtual Server but do not know what settings I need or what else I need to setup to get it to work.
I have always used hosted space before where it is all setup for me.
How do I go about it?
* I have a Windows 2003 Professional Edition server with 8GB installed.
* /PAE is enabled to use more than 4GB memory
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)WINDOWS="Windows Server 2003, Enterprise" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptOut /PAE
* I can see 8GB installed in the Task Manager
* This server is not for hosting but for running some cpu intensive applications. (I am not into webhosting industry)
But the maximum I ever seen been used is 4.66GB, and after that I run often into "Memory allocation failed" "Out of memory exception" application error.
How to use the full 8gb? Or is my box configured to use 8gb? Or is it dependent on application. Do I need a memory manager third-party software?
Im running a windows 2003 web edition server with apache 2.2.4 installed and a ported module; mod_dosEvasive, my server is vurnable for some sort of single machine dos attack. Not only my own server is vurnable but basically ANY apache 2.2.4 win32 server, even without additional modules (lik php) installed ( i checked by installing apache2 on 4 machines, all vurnable)
The tool used to attack apache is described here:
[url]
When attacked by the specific syn flood attack apache2 becomes useless and doesnt send any responses out anymore. When the attacker stops sending this flood Apache starts responding again.
how to secure a windows apache server against such an attack?

How do I lock this down? How can I block these guys from trying to login? The IPS are coming from all over the world though. I did whois for a few, and they range from Poland, Russia, to China.
I have a problem connecting to my win2003 server from my work. The thing is that everything is turned off. I dont have administration rights. The remote connection in win xp doesnt work, telnet also dont work. Im behind proxy, all ports are closed. Is there any way, to install software on my server or smth else, so somehow i could connecti to my server remotely? I need to be able to connect to gui interface or maybe just be able to start programs, which crashed.

I don't have any SMTP server
Its a dedicated unmanaged server that has windows 2003 and apache running. I heard you need IIS to enable SMTP on a Windows machine but I don't want to run IIS because I feel Apache is better.
Site is currently running on a single code single cpu p4 server. Am thinking of upgrading to a quad core Xeon server.
My site is pretty dynamic with lots of hits to php / mysql, and has trouble keeping up with the requests sometimes. Would a quadcore Xeon significantly help?
Server Software:
Windows 2003 Server
php 5.2.6
apache 2
mysql 4.1
Current Setup:
P4 2.8 single core/cpu.
Proposed setup
Xeon 3210 quadcore
I guess my confusion lies in the following:
1. Can win2003 server make use of the quadcores?
2. Does php / apache / mysql make use of the quadcores?
3. Will i see a significant increase in the amount of pages i can serve?
