Assign IP Address for Windows Server 2025 VM on Hyper-V
I have built my first Windows Server 2025 VM on HyperV and trying to assign an IP address. I want the VM's to be like an actual server so I Created an external vswitch. The HyperV server IP is 172.16.1.41 with a physical gateway of 172.16.1.5. I have tried to assign the new VM with 172.16.1.42/255.255.255.0 and the Gateway is 172.16.1.5 also. However, I cannot get a positive ping. Do I need another VSWITCH configured or what am I missing?
SNMP Query fails with Error: Error in packet. Reason: (genError) A general failure occured
I have enabled a win Server 2022 and a Win11 machine to answer SNMP requests. However both machines run into error while doing a snmpwalk. I have started with OID just before errornous OID. Both machines show same behaviour. Does someone experience same problem? Can someone recreate this problem? Does someone know a cure fort this problem? Does someone have any ideas how to proceed? root# snmpwalk -Os -v 1 -c public <hostname> .1.3.6.1.4.1.77 comVersionMaj.0 = STRING: "10" comVersionMin.0 = STRING: "0" comType.0 = Hex-STRING: 03 00 00 00 Error in packet.

Contexte Windows Server 2022 [Standard/Datacenter — à préciser], rôle Hyper-V installé. J'ai créé une VM invitée Linux nommée « Wazuh » (installation d'une plateforme SIEM), elle démarre correctement. ce serveur est une VM imbriquée dans un autre hyperviseur type VMware Workstation. je suis en simple groupe de travail (workgroup). Ce que je constate PS C:\Users\Administrator> Start-VM -Name 'Wazuh' PS C:\Users\Administrator> vmconnect localhost Wazuh vmconnect : The term 'vmconnect' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again. At line:1 char:1 + vmconnect localhost Wazuh + ~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (vmconnect:String) [], CommandNotFoundException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException PS C:\Users\Administrator> Get-VM -Name 'Wazuh' | Select-Object State, Status State Status ----- ------ Running Operating normally PS C:\Users\Administrator> vmconnect localhost Wazuh vmconnect : The term 'vmconnect' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program... La VM est bien « Running / Operating normally » selon Get-VM, donc le souci n'est pas la VM elle-même mais l'accès à sa console. Ce que j'ai déjà essayé Get-WindowsFeature *Hyper-V* → [colle ici la sortie exacte que tu as obtenue] Install-WindowsFeature -Name RSAT-Hyper-V-Tools -IncludeAllSubFeature → toujours pas de vmconnect.exe fonctionnel après coup Je soupçonne que ce serveur est installé en mode Server Core (pas d'interface graphique locale), et j'ai lu que la conversion Core → Desktop Experience n'est plus possible après coup depuis Server 2016. Ma question pour la communauté Est-il vraiment impossible d'obtenir une console graphique locale (vmconnect / Hyper-V Manager) sur un Server Core, même une fois les outils de gestion Hyper-V installés ? Quelle est la méthode la plus fiable pour accéder à la console d'une VM Hyper-V hébergée sur un Server Core, en environnement non-domaine (workgroup) : Windows Admin Center, Hyper-V Manager distant (config WinRM/TrustedHosts), ou faut-il simplement réinstaller en Desktop Experience ? Si quelqu'un a déjà mis en place Windows Admin Center ou du Hyper-V Manager distant sur un lab en groupe de travail (sans AD), un retour d'expérience serait très utile. Merci d'avance !
Two-tier AD Certificate Services error importing cert into SubCA
Hello, I'm new here, but excited about being able to hob nob with all you in furthering our IT goals. I'm setting up my root and Subordinate CA and I'm importing my rootCA issued, subCA certificate into the subCA. I get I get the same error when the subCA automatically exports its cert req to the root Ca and when I do it manually. I also get this error whether i'm using X.509 or p7b files. what's unusual about this error is that it seems to be referencing a .req file with a '(1)' added to the end of the title. Original .req did not have the '(1)'. any assistance I can get from the community would be appreciated.
Issue with Temporary Profile on Windows Server 2025 after renaming built-in Administrator account
Hi everyone, I am facing an issue with a temporary profile on Windows Server. Environment details: ・OS: Windows Server 2025 Datacenter ・Setup: On-premises environment with 2 servers (AD DS Domain Controller and Web Server) ・Affected Server: Web Server (Domain joined) Recently, I renamed the built-in Administrator account on the Web Server. After that, the system became completely unresponsive, so I had to force a power off. Upon signing in after the reboot, I received the error message: "We can't sign in to your account" (or "You've been signed in with a temporary profile"). It seems the profile folder or registry mapping for the renamed Administrator account was corrupted due to the force shutdown. I tried restarting the server, but the issue persists. Could anyone please advise on the proper way to resolve this registry/profile conflict and safely restore the renamed Administrator profile? Please note that I am a native Japanese speaker and a beginner in IT, so I may not fully understand complex technical English. Simple, step-by-step instructions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance for your help! Translated by Gemini, grammar checked by DeepL
Migrating from VMware to Hyper-v
Hi, I've recently deployed a new 3x node Hyper-v cluster running Windows Server 2025. I have an existing VMware cluster running exsi 7.x. What tools or approach have you guys used to migrate from VMware to Hyper-v? I can see there are many 3rd party tools available, and now the Windows Admin Center appears to also support this. Having never done this before (vmware to hyper-v) I'm not sure what the best method is, does anyone here have any experience and recommendations pls?
Hyper-V Converged Networking for VEEAM Backups
Hi All, As per the image below, I have 3 x HPE DL380 Gen 12 Servers, Server1 and Server2 are ADDS domain joined, VEEAM Local Repo is not. For the converged networking to work, is there anything else I need to perform in terms of additional power-shell commands, VLAN tagging etc? Thanks!
Unable to Build Switchless Storage using Network ATC
3-Node HV/S2D Cluster using Switchless Storage and Network ATC getting Network HUD Error I have a Dell 3-node server cluster being used to host Hyper-V with S2D. Each node is identical and certified to pass S2D requirements. The networking consists of 2 onboard 1 Gbps and 2 quad-port PCI(e) NICs at 10/25 Gbps. The 2 onboard ports are being used for the management intent, 2 ports from each of those NICs are being connected to 2 top-of-rack switches for the compute intent at a total of 12 10 Gbps connections, and the other 2 ports from each of those NICs are being connected directly to the other nodes in a dual mesh method for the storage intent at a total of 6 25 Gbps connections. Very similar to the Microsoft diagram for a three-node storage switchless, dual TOR, dual link deployment network reference pattern for Azure Local, but I am using Windows Server 2025 Datacenter, not Azure Local. The problem I am encountering is when I attempt to create the switchless storage intent, I get an error (shown below) that reads "Failed to fetch physical NIC mapping from the Network HUD service. Please diagnose..." If I leave off the switchless option, it builds without issue. The error only occurs when I attempt to use the switchless option. I tried without configuring the NIC IP addresses first, as well as trying configuring the NIC IP addresses beforehand. I tried without having a cluster built first, as well as building a failover cluster without storage before running the network intent command. The error I posted below shows my last attempt after having the NICs configured with IP addresses and having a failover cluster established before running the command. The error has remained the same throughout the process. Has anyone else run into an issue like this with switchless storage? It seems like everything that I am trying to do is within scope and should be a supported solution. My fallback plan is to use my existing switches, but that drops my connection speeds down from 25 Gbps to 10 Gbps due to hardware limitations.Prnproc$ Share on Windows Print Server
Hi all, I was wondering if anyone had some information in regards to the pronproc$ share on Windows print servers? I am running a Windows Server 2019 instance and had the share flag as a potential vulnerability for allowing read & execute on the share. From what I can see the built-in users group has this permission on the share. Is this share something the can be locked down for privileges or will it break the functionality of the server's services?
