Hi all, hope someone can help. I have a Dell Poweredge 2500, 1GB ram, RAID
5, etc. We recently had mutiple power outages (however we do have a UPS on
the server) and ever since the server is taking around 8 hours to log anyone
onto it. With it just sitting doing its server role it is ok, P's can log on
fine to the network and everything works, but if you log onto the server
itself as any administrator you have to wait hours.
When the server does finally get to the desktop you can't change ie
connection settings (which it has also changed post power outage) so we can't
get into our Firewall, etc. We can't get into control panel, and a number of
other settings to try and make things better. Even having problems restoring
via Backup Exec...I've even threatened it with a large hamer!
Please help
