Windows 10: All control lost when primary machine sleeps and control on other machine

I have two machines, A and B.The keyboard and mouse of A are used to control both.If A sleeps when the mouse and keyboard are redirected to B there is no way to wake A other than the reset/power button.Even Ctrl-Alt-Del does not work.

Lost ability to access Win10 from WinXP machine

Hi,

This is a lab I constructed since following this thread.

Setup:

Virtual Box
Windows 10 fresh install, latest ISO fully patched.
Windows XP Latest Version As patched as it need.

Setup:
Both Virtual machines virtual adapters Bridged to my Local Network
Both NetBios forced Enabled
Both in the same Workgroup
Both firewalls located in Private network

Enabled SMB1 on W10 Host

Created user named "monkey" with the password "banana" on both machines
Created a Share named !TEMP! on both machines, created a cookie File in each folder.
Give full control access to everyone and "monkey" on both shares.

From there I was unable to access the shared folder Without authentication period.
Automatic authentication did not work and using "Everyone full access" did not change anything.
I had to specifically log on the machine to gain any access.

CMD output:








If you want, you can do a step by step troubleshooting of your problem.
From the problematic machine.

Try to view if your Machine appears on the Network List:
Code:

If Your Machine appears on the list, try to view it:
Code:

The available shares will be listed there.
If it does not work you can use:
Code:

To verify if authentication is working properly, if it succeed, you can carry on... But nothing will be permanently saved.

Then Try to List the content of one of the directories:
Code:

This should list the content of the directory,

If all this works Try to map a drive on the share:
Code:

In my setup both windows are at the default initial configuration, no tweaks, and wont accept any of these commands without prior authentication.

 

Make Second Domain Controller Primary

I have 2 domain controllers, Primary is Windows Server 2012 and the secondary Domain Controller is Windows Server 2022. Primary successfully replicates to Secondary without issues and visa versa if I make changes in Secondary. I want to decommission the Primary DC, I followed the steps to transfer all 5 FSMO roles to secondary and now secondary is supposed to be Primary.

All servers see the secondary DC and it is listed as a DNS in ipconfig/all. When I shutdown the old 2012 DC, I Could not access any of the servers with domain name only IP. I tried flushing DNS but that did not help. I turned old server back on and was able to access my servers again but some servers had issues with RDP but are okay now.

Did I miss a step to make the 2022 server a Primary DC so old one can be decommissioned? do I have to make any changes on DNS Management?
