Server Dies :: Loaded It With Windows 2003 And Linux
Feb 8, 2008
I have a server that keeps dying on my mysteriously. I've loaded it with Windows 2003 and Linux. Both crash about once every other day. So I'm guessing this isn't a software issue, but a hardware one.
When it crashes the screen turns blank. Only a hardware reboot will work. The power doesn't go off though.
Anybody here experience something like this before? I'm guessing it's one of the following:Power supply
CPU
Motherboard
However I'm thinking it's probably not the power supply as the server is relatively idle. I did stress test the server and it didn't crash then.
The thing is, there are no event logs from the BIOS or anything.

We use Plesk 12 with ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS ......
Plesk 12 does not create backups for Customers.
If we restarts the server, Plesk created again for 2 days backups and then again not. There are no errors present.
The backup should be loaded on a FTP backup server after the Create
This makes Plesk but only if you restarts the server. Otherwise, no backups are created or loaded on the FTP backup server.....

As a webhost, what would you recommend in terms of dealing with a situation where one of your servers has just died?
Obviously, you would hope that you can get someone on-site to fix it, but diagnosing these kinds of problems can be very time-consuming. And while this is happening, over a hundred clients are calling you saying, "Where's my site?".
We have been considering having a server with nothing on it for these kinds of situations - so we can pull out our hot-swap drives and simply put them into the working machine.
HOWEVER - the hardware in the working machine is not identical to that in the faulty machine. Will Linux simply reconfigure and work, or will it spit the dummy?
We are using CentOS Linux. If I'm way off-base and you have a better solution, please let me know.

I've gone through 3 servers lately, upgrading each time. All three have been linux this far, but I'm really not accustomed to it and don't like running on something I'm not familiar with.
On the other hand, I'm very familiar with Windows 2003.
So, what are your experiences running a vbulletin forum website with windows 2003? Any huge security flaws with Win2k3 compared to CentOS? Would I be able to use SSH to tunnel and remote desktop into the Win2k3 box? It'd be so refreshing to be able to use a gui instead of command prompts.
I see a quad core with 8gb for under $150 right now, compared to my current dual core with 2gb of ram I think it'd definitely be a huge improvement.

I have a Windows 2003 server running on a machine, and I'd like to convert this machine to a Linux (Fedora) machine.
Suppose I don't have a CD-Rom/Floppy/USB drive. Is it possible to install Linux?

With Windows 2003 server, there are comprehensive lists of what you need to do to secure the server before use. For Windows 2008, I wonder is there such a list? Or is it true as what I heard from Microsoft that it is already secured out of the box?
Anyone has any resources on the hardening or preparation of 2008 for server hosting uses?

This is my first dedicated and I am plugging away at it.I am running windows server 2003 web edition and I have my database, website, and ftp setup and everything is working so far. Now if you go to 66.96.196.102 my site that I'm working on will show up. My question is my domain and site that I am in the process of moving is hosted on a shared server on 1and1. Now I need that domain to point to that ip. Do I need to set up name servers on the server? If so can someone point me in th right direction.

The download / process, ends itself.
How can we keep running the download or any process, even when we log off?

We have two Windows Server 2003 machines as active directory controllers and DNS servers for our in-house operations. For our purposes, let's say the domain name is example.com.
Both servers have DNS, and example.com is stored in Active Directory to allow us to use the benefits this provides. Our issue is probably simple, but I'm not sure how to fix it.
Let's call server one EX1, and server two EX2. These have local IPs of 192.168.1.111 and 192.168.1.112, respectively.
We want example.com to be resolved to an external IP address (for web hosting), let's say 1.2.3.4. The problem is, the two domain controllers keep registering example.com with their internal IP addresses .111 and .112, so the DNS round-robins between 1.2.3.4 and the two internal servers, which aren't web servers.
Is there a way we can get those DNS controllers to stop registering their internal IPs as example.com?

Just purchased a Quad Core Xeon Server with 4 gigs of ram and trying to decide if I should run Windows 2003 Standard 32bit or 64bit?
Basically I have a few asp.net 1.1 C# application and I want to make sure they will work properly.
Also does anybody know if Plesk 8.2 supports 64 bit?
Also I would assume and hope Microsoft SQL 2005 Express suppports x64?

The past week I've been trying to answer the hardest question. I'm an expert windows user and a Novice Linux user.
I have a server built and ready for an operating system, this will be a development server for database and web development. It will also likely turn into an encrypted file server as well.
I do not plan on doing much else other then that.
Is it worth it to struggle through and learn the Linux command line or should I go for Windows Server something I am more familiar with?
I've considered VMware although I have "Fake Raid" and ESXi does not see my Raid-1 setup.

I have a windows 2003 server with Plesk installed. It keeps crashing and requires a reboot every couple of days.
Here are screenshots of event logs and task manager.
Also, its a Pentium HT with 1GB memory, so it isn't too slow for Windows.

My new data center does not sell Windows server 2003 licenses like my old DC did. Is there anywhere I can lease the license for a monthly fee? This is essentially what happened at my old DC.

I have a windows server 2003 server with IIS 6 installed on it. My site runs fine, then all of a sudden becomes VERY slow.
I asked server hosts to take a look at it, and they noticed an IP that is has attempted to connect on port 80 432 times in a few seconds, causing the site to slow down.
Is there any software i can use to try and combat this spam/abuse? I have a trend micro anti-virus and firewall installed on the server. I have blocked that IP, but there is nothing stopping that from changing.
Also, are there any free/cheap server monitoring tools for the server that i can monitor the server remotely with?
The server has SNMP installed and configured according to my server hosts... watever that is.

I have to move my primary DNS server (on Win 2003) from one machine to another.
There aren't a ton of domains, but I'd rather not re-create the whole thing.
Anyone know of a tutorial out there to help me get through the process?

I work for a big organization that has a check list for standard windows server 2003 installation.
The list includes stuff such as , removing some users and adding some domain users, changing system name, windows update, ie7 installation, adding the system to the domain, installing norton anit virus from file shares and so on.
Is there anyway to auto mate this or atleast everything to do with system settings including windows update ? (Minus norton install)
I am sure one can make an answer file but i am not convinced by that answer as the post installation changes require editing regedit and other local security policies.

I've been working on a large online browser game for the last year on and off - it's due to open for beta in Oct. This game is coded in PHP/AJAX with MySQL. It's quite heavy on different graphics with characters, items, illustrations etc. It will also have a selection of Flash games to play. Similar gaming sites have more than 1000 users online in peak hours and we estimate that and more within the first 3-5 months of opening.
I want to open my site on a Windows Server as I'm a lot more familiar with Windows (Having an MCP for Windows Server 2003). I am unsure however what edition to go with. At first I thought Windows Server 2003 Web Edition (Being a website!), but this only supports up to 2gb of ram I believe? and may prove to be an issue if we need to upgrade due to the high demand of online users.
I understand I can have more than one server, but would you recommend another edition?

I have to setup a company server over a huge hardware profile made for me:
- 8 cpu
- 16gb RAM
- gbits LAN
- 1 TB of RAID-5 storage bay
The server will be splitted in two server (it's actually a balde running ESX and two guests).
My question is:
- I am better to setup 64 bits or better run the old and stable 32 bits?
I consider this question because:
- I might install Exchange 2007
- I might upgrade to Windows 2008
Out of this, is there known problem/issue with 64 bits Windows 2003 OS?

I just installed php on a windows server 2003 machine but php code just shows up as normal text. I've followed the steps outlined here. Then I restarted the server and the files are served as they should, but php code is not parsed.
In the troubleshooting section it says to try to add php5isapi.dll as an ISAPI Filter, and so I did, but it still won't work. The question is, do I have to restart the whole machine to test if the ISAPI Filter setting solved the problem, or does an IIS reset suffice? The reason I'm asking instead of trying is that a lot of business critical applications are running on the same machine, so restarting the machine is quite the process.
