In my AWS account we have 3 different applications, A, B, C.
I want to create an IAM policy for the B team that allows them to create new EC2 instances, but limit it to be tagged within the B resource group, or some other constraint that can definitively associate that new instance with the B group. Is that possible?
My active directory account just got locked out. On a whim I unplugged the ethernet cord and turned off the wifi radio switch and I was able to log into my account. I plugged the ethernet back in and then tried to RDP to another computer on the network and got the "your account is locked" message. So I ctrl+alt+del locked my active desktop session again and tried to log in. once again got the "your account is locked" message. Then I unplugged the ethernet cord again and was able to log in to my session.
Is this intended design of active directory?
Usually Windows shows SPX on the System Information screen - is that the case for Windows Server 2008 R2? Is this a reliable way to verify whether or not SP1 is installed on this machine?
An organization I help with operates in a large warehouse. Their network consists of a Clearwire modem hooked up to a consumer wireless router upstairs. Most people upstairs connect via secure wifi. One person has an ethernet line. Another ethernet line goes out through the rafters about 200 ft and connects to another consumer router downstairs. About 10 users at a time might connect to this router wirelessly. One of the ethernet ports on this router is connected to one more router about 100 ft away, and about 100 users at a time might try to connect to this router.
Lately their network has been pretty flaky and I'm sure their network architecture is mostly to blame. Ideally I'd have them hire somebody to rewire the whole building to allow for a central hub, but budget constraints are budget constraints. Are there any reliable ways of chaining network devices without significantly disturbing the existing ethernet wiring throughout the building?
I had to restore a TFS 2010 virtual machine and am having trouble getting WSS running. When I try to go to the Sharepoint Admin portal localhost:17012 it fails. In the event viewer I see a bunch of
SQL database login failed. Addition error information from SQL Server is included below.
Login failed for user 'TFS\TFSREPORTS'
TFS\TFSREPORTS is a local user (running in a workgroup not a domain). How can I re-establish this user as an appropriately permissioned user for WSS?
My Hyper-V Server 2008 R2 box has 2 partitions, one for the OS and a second for data. Can I configure my guest virtual machines to have access to that data partition? Preferably so that the guest OS sees it as a physical drive, not a mounted network share.
I have a file win7.vhd that I've been using in a Boot to VHD scenario. Now I want to run that Windows 7 instance within Hyper-V Server alongside a few other VMs I have. I sysprepped win7.vhd and copied it over to the the Hyper-V Server and tried creating a new VM using that .vhd file. I get the "Boot failure. Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device" error. Any suggestions?
How can I tell if SP3 is installed for my SQL Server 2005 instance?
I have a win7 VM running in VMWare Server that I built from scratch. I wanted to use this VM as a baseline and use Converter to clone it. However while using the Converter tool, it says it can't find sysprep. I need to be able to reconfigure the SID and machine name, etc. How can I accomplish this?
I have a couple virtual machines running in VMWare Server. I can RDP to them using their intranet IP address, but not by their machine name. Why is this? Is there a setting that will allow this? my host OS is Win7 and my VM is Win2k3 and they are both set up to get a static IP through DHCP
