Dear Team,
I have set up a Windows Server 2003 on a laptop PC in order to experiment
with Visual Studio .NET.
On attempting to set up Active Directory, I get the message:
"The wizard has detected that there are no valid IP addresses assigned to
any of the network adapters for this computer. Please verify that the
network cable is connected, and that a DHCP server is available or the
computer is configured to use a static IP address, then click Next"
As I don't intend that this laptop will be connnected to a network, what is
the best strategy for me to use as regards setting up an IP address for it?
I do occasionally connect to the Microsoft website to download updates, and
want to retain that capability.
Looking at the help file I find I have a large number of options:
Install Simple TCP/IP
Configure TCP/IP for dynamic addresssing
Configure TCP/IP for automatic addressing
etc.
etc.
but no particular case seems to fit my circumstances.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Thanks for your post. I reviewed your request carefully, and now I'd like
to share the following information with you:
1. We need to dediate an IP address in order to install Active Directory.
Please refer to the following KB article for detailed information to
resolve the problem:
How to Configure Active Directory on a Home Network http://support.microsoft.com/?id=260362
Does your laptop have a network card? If not, you should install and
configure "Microsoft loopback adaptor".
BTW, in the future, it would be best to post these questions in the
following newsgroup.
Microsoft.publi c.windows.activ edirectory
Microsoft.publi c.win2000.activ e_directory
Have a nice day!

Hello,
I am trying to find a way to create a scheduled task or
service that will copy my local profile folders
under "Documents and settings" to a network drive. This
would allow me to restore my settings if my profile became
tampered with or corrupt. Is there any sample code
available out there?

Hi,
When i use to work on Windows 2000 advance server and Sql 2000
I was able to do network restoration by using a mapped drive where my
backup use to be lying.What i did was I assigned administrator rights
to my login and in Services (mssqlserver)i added my login.
Then I was able to access any mapped drive from my network in Sql

We have an ASP.NET 2.0 web application running on a Windows 2003 domain

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
