Hello,
I'm new at Server 2012 Standard-edition (V-Server).
Since several days I'm trying to establish a VPN-Connection to this server.
My latest problem ist error 720 when trying to connect.
Google told me that it could be a problem with protocols.
Where do I find the protocols, used at server-side?
Thanks Carsten
I'm have a quite peculiar and highly frustrating problem.
I have recently set up a Windows Server 2012 file host, sitting on top of kvm, using virtio drivers and a PCI-E passthrough HBA (debian host).
Performance is great internally, and I get great download speeds from the network shares (essentially full disk/network speed).
However I have found that the two Windows 8 Pro desktops that I have connected to the domain (separate Windows 2012 server on the same KVM) effectively cannot upload files to the server.
They either immediately drop their speed to 1kb/s or spend forever "calculating". I tested uploading from a Windows 7 VM on my MBP and the upload speed are perfect.
I'm beginning to think that something isn't right with SMB 3.0? (as that would only effect the Windows 8/Windows Server 2012 combination). I have tried playing with a few of the network adapter settings (disabling offloads/checksums) with no difference.
Network adapter drivers are all up-to-date on both server and client.
It looks like it's going to be a setting on the server somewhere as I'm happy with the speeds between two Windows 8 Pro machines (which will also be using SMB3.0)
When I copied files from a Windows 2012 server to some Windows 7 PCs, it often prompts me the error 0x80090006: Invalid signature.
Once I clicked ‘Try Again’ button, the copying progress will resume. I tried on 3 ‘Windows 7’ computers and 1 ‘Windows Server 2008 R2 with SP1’ computer, it promoted the same error. The error was not always prompted, sometimes I could not reproduce this error in a whole day.
The anti-virus software that installed in those Windows Server 2012, Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 with SP1 is System Center Endpoint Protection. Actually all of them are installed with System Center Configurations Manager.
Is there anyone knows what causes this error and how to solve it?

powershell>msiexec /x {GUID} triggers evtid 1035 (reconfiguration) instead of uninstall ... cmd>msixec /x {GUID} uninstalls and works ...
Also the help ui for msiexec pops up instead of uninstallation.
So exactly the same command in the format msiexec /x {GUID} works at the command-shell prompt (uninstalls GUID and post in application evtlog sequence of evtid's 1040, 11724, 1034, 1024 ... i.e. beginT, removal completed , removal status success, endT)
... but not at the powershell prompt (prompt msiexec help ui and post in application evtlog sequence of evtid's 1035, 1035, ..., 1035 product reconfiguration ... so a sequence of reconfiguration across several GUID packages btw) ...
Hello,
Could you please tell me if Exchange 2013 can be installed on the Essentials version of Windows 2012 ?
If it is possible, are some Exchange CAL needed ?
Thanks i,n advance for your answers.OK, I have the 2012 (eval) up and running, meets all suitability testing. Now I want to put it into production with the license key received.
But we cannot change the key from eval to licensed on a domain controller. According to <http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj574204.aspx> And of course it's true, we cannot install the key on an existing dc.
SO, can I install a 2nd eval server,
join it into the domain,
remove AD DS from the 1st eval server,
then install the key on the 1st (configured) eval server, (putting it into production)
then put AD DS role back on this production server? Keeping all the Domain & app setup, not having to rebuild all the detail!
(Then remove the 2nd eval instance from the domain).
Hi All,
After installing a wealth of new server 2012 servers in various smaller businesses I was shocked to learn that in the small print for server 2012 direct access its notes that windows Pro clients are not compatible.
All this talk of easy to deploy direct access servers and then no support for pro clients is fully contradictory!
If you buy small volumes of Laptops from a suppler, say Dell, they come win windows 8 pro and that's what small businesses use.
I'm really upset by this and the fact that its never mentioned in any promotional material and that a professional version of windows cant use professional creatures.
MS, get your act together! Server 2012, exchange 2013 could have been fantastic but instead they are suffering from many flaws like this one.
Hi all,
I'm testing DA under Windows Server 2012 and have a working configuration using IP-HTTPS for both Kerberos Proxy and Windows 7/Windows 8 hybrid mode scenarios (using client certs). I've now expanded testing to include the OTP capability and followed the instructions here:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831715.aspx
I'm seeing authentication requests being processed correctly and the DA Server authenticating correctly with the selected RADIUS server. In the event log I say a RADIUS Accept message for authentication. On the test Windows 8 client though, when logging on, from the CTRL-ALT-DEL screen, using the OTP Credentials, I'm getting the following error message:
Authentication Failed due to an Internal Error x80040008. Try again or ask your administrator for help.
On the CA I see a failed request for the (smart card) certificate to be enrolled.
The parameter is incorrect. 0x80070057 (WIN32:87). Denied by Policy Module
I've tried this configuration on a couple of different CAs (Windows 2008 and Windows 2008R2), but the results are the same. The CA is reachable from the DA client as required.
Looking at this article
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831379.aspx
1. Anyone have any ideas why the DAOTPLogon certificate is failing during the enrolment process?
2. There's a DAPROBEUSER account I've created which is used to determine the availability of the RADIUS service, but where is the corresponding password specified on the DA Server to be passed to RADIUS? I saw a reference to this registry key ( HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DirectAccess\OTP\ RadiusProbePass) but the DirectAccess path doesn't exist so I'm assuming it's a Beta thing..

Mylo
All,
I have two 08R2 core servers I'm using as hyper-v hosts, I'd like to upgrade these to 2012. Is an in place upgrade supported and if so can someone point me to some documentation? From what I gathered I can only upgrade to the same version and configuration level (i.e. core -> core or gui -> gui), any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Sean

Hi :)
I've created in Win Svr 2012 task on event to start program (because send mail is deprecated - DISASTER ! - shame on you MS ;)
I've entered in program filed call for powershell and in parameters field:
Send-MailMessage -From "sender@md" -To "receiver@md" -Subject "subject" -Body "text“ -SmtpServer smtp_server_address
Becase it is triggered task running it have make no sence, history says that task is executed.
If I run command manually in powershell it is executed and mail is sent.
I've try to "inject" in event log event which should triggered to task be executed with PS:
Write-Eventlog -Logname "event log name" -source "source" -eventID event_num -EntryType Warning -message "TEST"
And I can see new event in log but task scheduler not execute task on event :(
Any idea or suggestion ?
Thank you.
Best regards
Hi,
I would like to know/understand local admin limitations in server 2012.
1. just added Server 2012 to domain. Logged in as domain admin. When trying to save text file (from notepad) on C:\
C:\test.txt
You don’t have permission to save in this location.
Contact the administrator to obtain permission.
Would you like to save in the My Documents folder instead?
[Yes] [No]
2. Saved the file on Desktop. When copy to C:\ the message: you must to provide Administrator password appears. --> Continue...
File saved successfully, without prompt for the password.
What is this whole game? I know general recomendaton for running Setup files as Run As...
But things like above... And it happens in different scenarios (saw it previously, but always have to find a workaround).
At some post I saw a statement "a local Admin doesn't have full Admin rights"
Please explain what is hidden behind all this security.
Thanks.
I have 2 brand new HP DL 380 G8 servers running Server 2012 Standard. They have been operational for about 2-3 months and about 2 weeks ago one of them started to spontaneously and randomly crash. It has done it 5 times now in the last 2 weeks. I analyzed the dump file with Debug Tools for Windows, and all 5 crashes are the result of the Microsoft driver vhdmp.sys. The version of the driver on the crashing server is the same version as the non-crashing server.
I contact HP technical support and we ran all the usual server diags and everything came up clean, so from a hardware perspective there are no apparent issues with the server. HP told me to find an updated vhdmp.sys driver from Microsoft or contact
their tech support about the issue, so that is where I am at.
I searched for any KB updates for Server 2012 regarding this driver and/or known issues, but have come up empty for anything pertaining to Server 2012. It appears there may have been some issues surrounding this driver as it pertains to running Hyper-V role and/or VSS based backups on Server 2008R2, but again nothing specific on Server 2012. I run both the Hyper-V role and VSS based backups on this server. I have since removed the Hyper-V VMs on this machine, but need to continue to run backups.
If anyone has any ideas or suggestions on where to go with this, I would welcome your help! I am at a loss for ideas at the moment.
Thanks,
Jeff
Server 2012 metro UI malfunction
When I move the mouse cursor to the top right I get the standard pop out slide for search, settings and so forth. However, it flickers like crazy and is not functional at all. When I hit the windows key and x I get a blank pop up window. When I revert to the metro UI the tiles pop up for a second and then disappear all together, again rendering the UI useless. The only way for me to get back to the desktop is to ctrl, alt, delete - task manager... I have tried changing resolutions and a multitude of other considerations from user blogs and TechNet suggestions. Does anyone have a simple fix for my server 2012 UI???
When I try to open the Remote Access Manager on Server 2012 Essentials I get the following error message. (error loading the configuration)
Bur remote access, direct access and vpn work without any failures.
But, if you type "Recycle Bin" in the Control Panel Search box, you will be shown this:
(I used the Snipping Tool in W7 to capture what I saw. The image is fine if I look at it with Windows Explorer Preview. Using the Insert Image icon on the HTML section of the Body box of this message results in the piece of crap above - I tried this five times!).
Display
Show or hide common icons on the desktop.
Clicking on Show or hide brings up the missing Desktop Icon Settings dialog box.
Maybe this is another Metro feature - nothing should be easy.
