TFTP.exe

[Guest]

I am trying to load Service Pack 4 on Window 2000 Exchange Server (from a
disk that I ordered from Microsoft) and I keep getting an error that says
TFTP.exe Set up can not copy this file. Ensure that th location specified
below is correct or change it and insert 'Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 source
files" in the drive you specify. I change the location and tried again. I
can not get it to load. How do I load Service Pasck 4?

Thanks,
Cheryl

Sounds like you might have a bad disk or a problem with your CD_ROM. You can
download and install Windows 2000 SP4 from Windows update.

I tried to load it that way also but it says that it can not copy that file.

Dump the contents of the IE Temporary Internet Folder cache (TIF)
start --> settings --> control panel --> internet options --> delete files

Open a Command Prompt.

In the Command Prompt type the following...

CHKDSK C: /F

If it replies..
"Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another process.
Would you like to schedule this volume to be checked the next time the system restarts?
(Y/N)"

Choose - Y

type; EXIT

Reboot the PC.

A full Check Disk will want to be performed, allow it.

When it reboots, perform a defragmentation of the hard disk.

You can get to the Defragmenting program easily by executing; dfrg.msc

Start --> run ->
type; dfrg.msc

After this is done, try to reinstall SP4.

Thank you I will try that.

Reset the permissions on that file just let it take on the permissions of the parent. Someone did that to make sure it could not be accessed by hackers. A very good thing actually.

ok so now when I try to download Service Pack 4 it says that ftp.exe and
tftp.exe files are corrupt. How do I fix those?
Thanks

If you performed a complete Check Disk and now FTP.EXE has the same problem as TFTP.EXE, I
am *very* suspicious that malware has crept into your computer.

1) Download TrendMicro Sysclean by other of the following 2 methods

Trend Sysclean Method 1
---------------------------------------
Trend Sysclean Package
http://www.trendmicro.com/download/dcs.asp

Latest Trend signature files.
http://www.trendmicro.com/download/pattern.asp

Create a directory.
On drive "C:\"
(e.g., "c:\sysclean")

Download SYSCLEAN.COM and place it in that directory.
Download the signature files (pattern files) by obtaining the ZIP file.
For example; lpt592.zip

Extract the contents of the ZIP file and place the contents in the same directory as
SYSCLEAN.COM.

Trend Sysclean Method 2

Trend Sysclean utility and Adaware

George,

Where do I go to reset the premission on those files?

Thanks

 

[George Hester]

Right-click the file | Properties | Security | check Allow inheritable permissions from parent to propagate to this object. But if you want to be a safe Windows 2000 user remove ALL permissions from it after you apply the Service Pack.

The only probelm is that I cannot find the tftp.exe or the ftp.exe. I tried
to copy them but I can not see them. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Cheryl

These files are in C:\WINNT\system32. I don't think they are hidden files but enable viewing system and hidden files to be sure. Windows Explorer | Tools | Folder Options... | View. Also sign in as Administrator.

I have tried that but those files are not there.

These files are in C:\WINNT\system32. I don't think they are hidden files but enable viewing system and hidden files to be sure. Windows Explorer | Tools | Folder Options... | View. Also sign in as Administrator.

 

[George Hester]

Go to the location that I told you C:\WINNT\system32 in the command prompt Start | Run | cmd | OK.

Then enter these commands after you type them hit ENTER

cd\
cd WINNT
cd system32

Now I want you to do this:

ftp

what happens? If you get a ftp session hit ctrl-BREAK

and then type this:

attrib ftp.exe

Tell me the result of that.

All Windows products come with a FTP program. If you do not get a find on ftp or attrib tftp.exe returns "Not found" we can always extract them from the Windows 2000 CD-ROM or Service Pack so don't get upset. I'll need to know your Service Pack you are at SP3 I assume.
