Here is the trouble.....afflicted server, icon is MS-DOS CP 437
(dosapp_0.fon). Non-afflicted servers it is dosapp.fon (dosapp.fon). I
copy from good server, to bad, it tells me to remove the newer first. I
remove the MS-DOS CP 437, copy and install dosapp.fon from a good server (in
change user /install), and it changes the name to MS-DOS CP 437.
ARGH!

Rick Mack gave some really good information at Briforum about fonts. They
should be installed in changer user /install mode and the paths may get
messed up so look at hklm/software/microsoft/windows nt/current
version/fonts on your server and make sure that the dosapp has the proper
directory and path set up.

Look to see if you can see anything in the startup either in the Startmenu
or registry HKLM\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\run
See if you see something that is new that possibly shouldn't be there.

I suddenly have several servers, asking for the CD for WIN2K upon logon, and
the file they are looking for is DOSAPP.FON. They each have this file, I
have tried replacing the file, I have tried copying i386 to the server, and
altering the source in REG., still looks for that file in d:\i386. Others
at my company have begun to see the same and similar instance on other
servers. So far, I am at 4 servers confirmed with this issue.
Any ideas? Seen this before?
