What is stackoverflow? If it is a mixture of wiki and forum, isn't it a wikorum?

comment Copy windows shared file from cmd
Thanks for this answer! This is also compatible to Windows Server 2008 R2 Core, where there is only a shell and comes with the OS... But I guess it should read double-backslash before the ip address?

comment “No active network adapters found” Hyper-V 2008 R2
Thanks, that looks very good! Reinstalling didn't take long, but I appreciate this a lot for potential future problems - reinstalling feels bad if there is actually data present... I don't understand why this is not an integral, not to say the integral part of the distribution, but I guess that question is out of scope ;)

Ok, I re-installed Hyper-V Server which fixed the problem. Strangely enough, the second install seemed a lot easier (I didn't have to use the hvremote script, it just worked). Also, the VM finally managed to fetch updates from Windows Update. Thank you all!

comment “No active network adapters found” Hyper-V 2008 R2
Hm, I see :( I guess I'll just install Windows Server 2008 and use VMs hosted by it. I feel Hyper-V administration is a major pain by now, all the tools seem to be highly immature (if they exist at all). Certainly, I'm unexperienced w/ Windows administration, but this type of problem should not occur ever. Where is the red button I can press locally? darn Thanks for your help!

comment “No active network adapters found” Hyper-V 2008 R2
Sorry, my question was not precise (updated): I can't access the Hyper-V manager, because that requires a working network connection already. I can only access the console on the Hyper-V Server directly. So I need to do that using the console. I guess there is a registry key or some other tool, but I couldn't find any information on that.

comment Hyper-V Virtual Disk Creation Taking Forver
The disks are simple SATA II disks in a RAID 1 array. I see it takes a long time, but Chris suggested a shocking 1 hour per 0.5GB. That translates into a month (!) for 350GB...

You gotta be kidding?! That is one month! That can't be, I mean that really makes the VM completely useless...

comment Virtual Server: RDP under attack?
Anonymous and Forms authentication are turned on - the website uses forms login. However, I didn't establish what is being attacked here: IIS or RDP. From what MSDN says, it rather seems to be IIS. However, what is being attacked in IIS then? I'm a little confused. I guess my initial question is badly formulated because it might essentially not even have to do with RDP - will try to investigate further. Thanks!

comment Virtual Server: RDP under attack?
Thanks for the hint. Names are {Administrator, Admin, IUSR, user, server, etc.} - looks like an attack. LogonType is alwasy "NetworkCleartext". According to MSDN that is typically an IIS login attempt? LogonProcess is always "advapi". I found this link blogs.msdn.com/puneetgupta/archive/2007/08/20/… but it seems to be a little over-engineering for my small vps.
