Sounds like a 4 hour drive out there may be less expensive than paying AT&T to go there. And you get fresh air, and you get to see that big ball of fire that people say is in the sky... Joe Heaton

McSpadden [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 13 March 2008 11:41 To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Remote server won't allow management That's what I am figuring on. But they cost $180 hour to show up. It sits in an AT&T data center 4 hours from my location. It is my 'backup' DC for AD. No real worries today but just would like to not have to pay AT&T to start it up and mssonfig it back to normal.... ----- Original Message ----- From: Ames Matthew B <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: NT System Admin Issues <mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2008 7:40 AM Subject: RE: Remote server won't allow management so that leaves the option of somehow causing the machine to bluescreen and hope it then reboots..... What does the server do? if it is on a remote site with no "bodies" there, is its unavailably going to be an issue until a body arrives on site? (who could then possibly manually reboot it/power cycle it for you) ________________________________ From: Rankin, James R [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 13 March 2008 11:38 To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Remote server won't allow management If it won't take a remote shutdown command (from the ResKit), then it is probably out of reach. Most stuff relies on some form of RPC communication. I sometimes use pskill to kill the winlogon process which generally makes it bluescreen, but this may not work either in diagnostic mode ________________________________ From: David W.

McSpadden [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 13 March 2008 11:20 To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Remote server won't allow management I have a remote server I would like to get into but is was last restarted in Diag mode from MSCONFIG. There is no one at the remote site. Is there a way to get it unstuck? I can ping it but that is all. ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System.
