- Hyper-V live mig failing from 2025 host to 2022 hostI'm having an issue with my one hyper-v cluster. I have 4 Server 2022 hosts, and 1 Server 2025 host. Live migration works INBOUND to the 2025 host, but live migrations fail OUTBOUND from the 2025 host. I have tried everything I can think of to make sure settings are ok. I have tried both setting it to use all networks, and the specific network. I've matched the live migration NIC settings to mirror what the 2022 hosts have. I've made sure the Hyper-V Live Migration settings all match. They use CredSSP and compression. Nothing seems to be working. Is there some really subtle 2025 bug that doesn't allow for live migrations to lower OS version hosts?24Views0likes0Comments
- Windows Server 2016 and internet issuesHello everyone, I'm relatively new here and hoping for some help. I'm IT at a school in Manhattan that has an old Dell tower running Windows Server 2016 in the basement that is not in use any more with the school as they have transferred over everything to digital. This was set up before my time working here and the person who set it up unfortunately did not leave any notes. We are ready to disconnect the machine as all of it's functions have been moved elsewhere. But, every time it is turned off or disconnected from our network patch, the internet in the entire building goes dead. I do not have previous experience with these kinds of servers and am trying to figure out what could possibly be causing this. I am concerned because the machine is old and feels like it's being held together by duct tape, and if it goes down, I hoping internet doesn't go with it. Looking for any advice or knowledge about these servers and what I can try to do to disconnect it.146Views0likes4Comments
- Why Does Allergy Center Islamabad Website Load Slowly on Phones?I tried opening https://allergycenterislamabad.com several times, and the page either loads very slowly or stops halfway. Could it be related to heavy images, mobile optimization, or server speed? Would appreciate any suggestions on how to fix this — especially for users on slower connections.
- Noob needs help with RDP ServicesI am new to Windows server management. I setup a 2019 Server in a VM (Hyper-V). I installed the licenses we got for RDP from MS after installing the Remote Desktop Services. I am getting an error about Remote Desktop Licensing Mode is not configured. Tells me to use Server Manger to specify RD Connection Broker. Either I neglected to install it or configure it, not sure. Articles I find say go to Server Manager -> Remote Desktop Services -> Overview... BUT, that tells me I am logged in with a local account but must use a domain account to manage servers and collections. Again, not using a DC. This server is not part of a domain. We do not run AD internally only AzureAD online. We have 1 program we still run internally and users RDP to it. Should I remove the service and reinstall? What about the licenses I added already? How to I keep them? Any assistance will be greatly appreciated... J91Views0likes2Comments
- Active Directory Unable to reset user passwordsI am managing a Windows Server 2025 Active Directory environment with client machines. I created a test user and enabled the option “User must change password at next logon.” I then provided a temporary password to the user, expecting them to get the prompt to change it on first login. However, when the user attempts to change the password, they receive the error: “The user must change password before signing in.” My goal is that when I provide a temporary password to a user: They get the prompt to change the password at next logon. When they change it, it should not throw the “user must change password before signing in” error. I need guidance on how to achieve this so users can reset their passwords successfully.
- Regarding Existing Microsoft Applications for End-to-End Operational ManagementI would like to inquire whether Microsoft offers any pre-built, production-ready applications—preferably within the Dynamics 365 ecosystem—that are currently in use by customers and proven to be stable, which support the following functionalities: Work Order Management Operational Management Production Planning and Control Resource Management Asset Management Quality Management Inventory Management Barcode Scanning for real-time job tracking (start/finish) Profitability and Financial Reporting Hours Variation Analysis( Planned Vs Actual) Cost Variation Analysis( Planned Vs Actual) We are seeking a solution that integrates these capabilities into a unified platform, ideally with real-time data capture and reporting features. If such a solution exists, we would appreciate details regarding its availability, deployment options, licensing, and customer success stories. Looking forward to your guidance
- Unable to manage DFS namespace from DFS MMCError: The namespace cannot be queried. The specified domain either does not exist. Hi, I have an issue with DFS at our site. It has been working fine for years, but recently the ability to manage it using the DFS MMC no longer works. DFS is still working for the users fine and I can map to it manually, but the MMC tool no longer connects. I can create new namespaces fine though. The error is: " The namespace cannot be queried. The specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted. " I can't risk recreating the namespace due to the impact on users, so anyone have any idea to fix this? Many thanks DB55Views0likes1Comment
