Ports Replication Used by Active Directory


If replication is failing between servers in Active Directory, ports below should be checked whether they are open, block or other application is using them.

Port           135     RPC-based replication (Dynamic) TCP
LDAP       389     UDP / TCP
LDAP       636     TCP (SSL)
LDAP       3268   (Global Catalog)
Kerberos   88       UDP / TCP
DNS         53        UDP / TCP

From the list of ports the easiest one to troubleshoot is port 53, if replication is failing and at the same time users are complaining that they are not able to access websites using domain names such as facebook, twitter or youtube.

Then put DNS as top priority on troubleshooting procedures.

One good habit that Sys Ad should have is to take record every little change that has been made on the system.

Troubleshooting can be easier if there is a record for every change made.

Print error 016-799 - Fuji Film Xerox

016-799 Fuji Xerox or Fuji Film print error code. That shows a description error as “Print instruction Fail detected in decomposer.” The error code and error description are alien languages for users and even system administrators who are not familiar with Fuji Xerox error code. The error code is quite simple and easy to fix, if the job print goes to the printer but print out doesn’t come out. So, basically the print job was received by the printer, but the printer just doesn’t know what type of paper or what size to use or which tray to utilize for the print out. In some instances, this is just a paper mismatch but the error description; if using Windows 10 to print does not exactly points to what is the issue. First thing to check, is the paper size selected by the user to print. Example, if the printer configuration is A3 and A4 sizes only. But then the person printing the file accidentally chooses “A4 Cover” then this error 016-799 will occur. ...

WMIC get computer name

WMIC get computer model, manufacturer, computer name and  username. WMIC is a command-line tool and that can generate information about computer model, its manufacturer, its username and other informations depending on the parameters provided. Why would you need a command line tool if there’s a GUI to check? If you have 20 or 100 computers, or even more. It’s quite a big task just checking the GUI to check the computer model and username. If you have remote computers, you need to delegate someone in the remote office or location to check. Or you can just write a batch file or script to automate the task. Here’s the code below on how get computer model, manufacturer and the username. Open an elevated command prompt and type:     wmic computersystem get "Model","Manufacturer", "Name", "UserName" Just copy and paste the code above, the word “computersystem” does not need to be change to a computer name.
