Help Newbie Server 2000 crashed

G

Guest

I am new to administrating. I am in a small company where I know the most
about computers so I get assigned as admin. Our server crashed yesterday.
I have 2 servers connected both 2000 the one that crashed has Exchange 20000.
I went into the event viewer and these were the errors I saw around the
time of the crash. Any help in troubleshooting would be greatly
appreciated. We also run citrix on this server for off site network
connections.

network traffic, the time service will wait 960 minutes before trying again.
No synchronization will take place during this interval, even if network
connectivity is restored. Accumulated time errors may cause certain network
operations to fail. To tell the time service that network connectivity has
been restored and that it should resynchronize, execute "w32tm /s" from the
command line.

* For these two above you might call Dell or check your documentation for
the steps to recondition your controller battery. May be as easy as starting
OpenManage, right-click the controller, and click "Recondition"

What I mean by crashed is it froze up and I was unable to do anything but
restart the server. Thanks for the info I will look into those and see if
fixes problem.
