RemoteException: A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name 'IncludeDFSN' - windows

I am trying to use Windows Admin Center's Storage migration Service to transfer data from a share drive server, to a new 2019 server. I have connected my new server to Windows Admin Center and connected to it, downloaded Storage Migration services, and I start the process. When I get to Enter credentials for the devices you want to migrate, I put in my Active directory admin account information, and hit next and get the error: RemoteException: A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name 'IncludeDFSN'. I have downloaded DFS and DFS management on the server.

See the following known issues;
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/storage/storage-migration-service/known-issues
To resolve, update the Storage Migration Service extension to at least version 1.113.0 in Windows Admin Center. The update should automatically appear in the feed and prompt for installation.

Where to find domain credentials for Jenkins 2.289.3 Windows Installer?

On my new Windows 10, as I am trying to install Jenkins, I encountered following prompt:
Since I don't know what local or domain user creds to enter, I keep on getting following error:
Error logging on DESKTOP-xxxx\user: The user name or password is incorrect
From reading the official doc, I am understanding that this is something new that Jenkins installer is doing for running as a Windows service, but where do I find these credentials on Windows?
Most of the applications when installed on Windows OS may want to run as a service using either the local system account or a specific account which needs specific permissions on the OS. Please use any local admin account which already there on the system where you are trying to install Jenkins. If the system is joined to a domain, prefer to use an domain account which has admin privileges on the system.
The worst advice to grand admin permissions for a single service.
You need to use local existing credentials from your windows system (if it's not connected to a domain) or a domain creds. Don't use admin creds for the installation.

IBM Websphere 6.1 start up with limited user access

I have successfully installed IBM websphere on my windows 7 machine as administrator user.
Now, when I am trying to run the server using limited access user login, it is exiting with message .
However, when I try to run it using administrative login, server runs successfully.
Since my user Id is of limited access, what needs to be done for starting successfully the server with user login.
Do I need to first create a profile associated with user login.
If yes, then how to create new user profile.
Since IBM Websphere was installed as administrator user, its installation directory (c:/Program Files/IBM/Websphere/*) was not accessible by limited access user. Since log files were also in the same directory, system was not allowing to start the server.
Also, I needed admin access on my system for starting/stopping the server.
I got read-write access on the installation folder and then again tried to start server using command prompt (serverStatus.bat server1).
The server started successfully on ports 9060/9043.

TFS - Asking for Credential Every time

I'm using Vs2013 and TFS for my project.
I have to run my VS in admin mode because of some reason but it ask me TFS credential every time when i start vs.
I'm tired of being provide it every time.
Is there any workaround so that TFS will connect automatically without asking credential every time.
Note: I logged as Normal user and running VS in admin mode by using "Run as".
If you log into your local machine with the same credentials as you are trying to connect to TFS you will get automatic ostrich with active directory. The fact that it is asking for credentials at all is unusual in an active directory configuration. If you are logging into another domain with credentials that are not the same as your local ones then use the windows credential store to save the credentials for the TFS server name or domain name.

Recovering RDP access to potentially compromised GCE Windows 2008 R2 server

I have a Windows 2008R2 server in GCE that is behaving oddly (may be compromised). I can no longer access it via RDP. When I reboot the machine and look at the serial console, I see at the very bottom after the boot sequence, that something called Credentials Manager runs and appears to delete or change some username/password. I suspect that this is what is changing the RDP password. (see image attached). On a normally running Windows VM, I do not see this in the trace.
GCE Agent started.
Starting AddressManager
Starting CredentialsManager
Credentials have changed. Updating...
Changing username...
Deleting old user...
Username or password was updated successfully.```
I have tried resetting or adding a new password using the metadata windows-startup-script-cmd = net user but that does not seem to do anything.
What I get is an error message of the form:
Booting on date 05/05/2015 10:22:49
WARNING: Computer Name windows does not match Compute Engine Instance Name XXXXX.
Did you forget to run gcesysprep?
attributes/windows-startup-script-bat value is not set or metadata server is not reachable.
attributes/windows-startup-script-ps1 value is not set or metadata server is not reachable.
So the question is, how can I get into the machine to see what is happening? Is there a way that the GCE startup sequence could be changed to not call the credential manager to change the password or username?
What you could do is if you have a Gcloud SDK (https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/gcloud-compute/) installed, you can run the following command while that instance is running:
gcloud compute instances decribe instance_name
This will provide all the information about the instance and you will see a section called MetaData which will display the users and the passwords. Then you can try to remote in and remove any credentials setup in the Credentials Manager located in Control Panel -> User Accounts.
I hope this give you access to your VM

how do i run appliaction as service in windows

i created a ruby application and its working fine but when i run it as service it giving trouble. actully i have mysql as a databse in my application and i am using it to store only name of the file and placing the physical file on sambha server now when i run my applioaction as as service it's not able to find the path of sambha server... any hlep...
What user account is running the service? Windows defaults to using the local SYSTEM account, which cannot/should not access the network. If you change the service to run under the "Network Service" or a specific user account, it may succeed.
