Hi,
In combination with my previous post (APC UPS Management on XenServer), I also installed apcupsd on my Windows Server.
This is a less important server, so by shutting it down automaticly after 5 minutes, I will save power for the important XenServer.

Hi,
Couple of days ago there where a couple pc’s that wouldn’t start anymore.
They would boot and then stop just before the logon screen (Ctrl+Alt+Del Login).
Booting to Safe Mode resulted in the same stop.

After moving the Favorites folder to a second hard drive (together with the other profile folders), I got an “Unspecified Error” while trying to add a favorite.
I already suspected some permission problems but couldn’t solve it immediately, instructions after the break.
Installing SBS 2008 on XenServer

Hi,
When trying to install Windows Small Business Server 2008 on a XenServer System, i encountered several errors.
The first ones I don’t really remember, but they where fixed by installing the XS-Tools before starting the SBS configuration wizard.
- Install SBS 2008
- On first boot (when the Configuration Wizard shows up), press Ctrl+Shift+Esc
- Choose xs-tools.iso in the DVD Drive dropdown list
- Go back to the Task Manager, click on “File”, “New Task”.
- Browse to the cd and run the setup.
- After this reboot the server (once or twice).
- Continue with normal installation
Then there was another problem when trying to install on XenServer 5.5. At some point in the installation the server rebooted and then stated that you should retry the setup.
The only fix for this problem that I found was to choose ”Other install media” as the Template, and not “Windows Server 2008 x64″

Just installed Microsoft EBS 2008, and suddenly Outlook keeps annoying me with password prompts.
Sometimes it seemed to work perfectly for a couple of hours, and then suddenly the prompt is there every minute.
