Changing default location (OU) for domain computers
Hello All, To bring some better structure to our AD, we're looking into organizing our client domain machines in AD, under an OU hierarchy. Part of this was also (possibly) changing newly joined machines to go to a separate OU, versus inside of the default Computers container. I've found a couple of methods for doing this, however, I'm not sure if this is a supported thing to do. I'm curious what others' opinions are of this. ThanksHow to switch Container OS on Windows Server 2022
I have installed docker on Windows Server 2022 (in Azure VM). Am able to run & build windows based container as per MS articlehttps://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/windowscontainers/quick-start/run-your-first-container Further my requirement is to run Linux containers. In above MS article it is stated to use below command to switch between containers. & $Env:ProgramFiles\Docker\Docker\DockerCli.exe -SwitchDaemon However, when I try to switch between containers OS using above command, it throws error that 'DockerCli.exe' is not recognized as a name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or executable program (see below screen). How can I get DockerCli.exe? Is there any other option to switch between containers OS on Windows Server 2022? Is there a way to get DockerCli.exe as part of docker installation on Windows Server 2022? Appreciate your help. Thank You.
Unable to access shared folder
Hi, I have one shared folder. when i am trying to access it OR trying to change its permission it is not allowing me and says access denied. I tried it using Domain Administrator. It give below error. "Failed to enumerate object in container. Access denied." If i take ownership of folder after that i can access only that particular folder but if i try to access subfolder OR files located in it then it will again says Access denied. Inheritance is already enabled. Domain admin has full permission on folder. Server is located on premise. Is there any fix for above issue ?
Windows Server 2025 Desktop Experience: Hyper-V cannot be installed
I have a lab with various Servers running Windows Server 2025. Some of them are installed without Desktop Experience, some with. Aside from Desktop Experience, the VMs and the operating are configured the same way using automated setup scripts. I exposed the VirtualizationExtensions for all VMs on the host using Set-VMProcessor -ExposeVirtualizationExtensions $true. Moreover, I configured all VMs to use static memory assignment. However, when I try to install Hyper-V on Windows Servers 2025 with Desktop Experience, I receive the error Hyper-V cannot be installed because virtualization support is not enabled in the BIOS. The issue occurs without any updates installed as well as with KB5050009 (2025-01 Cumulative Update for Microsoft server operating system 24H2 for x64 based Systems) installed. On machines without Desktop Experience, Hyper-V can be installed without any issues. As a side note, on VMs using Windows 11 24H2 on the same host, I can install Hyper-V without any issues.
