SBS2003 How to solve wrong domain assignment – server.mshome.net

0

Issue: DHCP server asign [server.mshome.net] to local server instead of [server.mydomain]

Diagnosis: Everything works just great. Reconcile scope on DHCP verifies as: The database is consistent. There are no assigned strange IP-s. RRaS has no issue.

Info: If your DHCP / RRaS server works as supose to then most probable explanation for wrong server name and domain is the hosts.ics that stores IP/NAME/and most important LEASE DATE as shown in taken screens.

Resolution: Go to [c:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\] open hosts.ics. The file is automatically generated by ICS and they recommend “Please do not make changes to the HOSTS.ICS file” … yah ! sure. Now you can:

  • simply delete the file [hosts.ics]
  • delete all the lines

in both cases the [hosts.ics] will no longer be involved in IP/NAME/LEASE assignment and will be recreated / rewritten if is the case. There is more, you multiply the line and change the IP/NAME for your LAN hosts. Save and scan to see results.

phpMyAdmin access denied under Wamp Server

0

How to solve #1045 – Access denied for user ‘root’@'localhost’ (using password: NO). For those who chose to add password to access MySQL and get the following error:

Welcome to phpMyAdmin

Error
MySQL said:

#1045 – Access denied for user ‘root’@'localhost’ (using password: NO)

phpMyAdmin tried to connect to the MySQL server, and the server rejected the connection. You should check the host, username and password in your configuration and make sure that they correspond to the information given by the administrator of the MySQL server.

The solution is:

  • go to c:\wamp\apps\phpmyadmin3.3.9\
  • open/edit [config.inc.php]
  • find line [$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = ”;] and insert your password,  you should have something like [$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = ‘MyPassword’;]
  • save and refresh http://localhost/phpmyadmin/ ,  you can restart WAMP (Restart All Service) if you want but is not really necessary
