    - Submit to Portal Area and Grouped Listings. We are trying to create a top level area that contains all of the companies documents as contained in the multitude of document libraries within our portal structure. To do this we are using the Submit to Portal Area feature on the documents. However. When we make a change to the original document in the doc library the submitted version (who's URL is the same as the original) does not reflect the change made. Is this by design or have we misunderstood the concept? N03L. Tag: .ink files Tag: 57355

    - Deleting Site Question Hi, So under SPS, I have a sub-area that holds our sub-sites that are created. When I want to delete a sub-site, do I have to go into that WSS sub-site first and delete it there and then go pack into SPS and delete it from the "Manage Sites" area? I tried deleting one by going into Manage Sites area and chosing Delete, but I can still access the subsite via the URL. If I delete the sub-site first and then come back into Manage Sites area the site still shows. What is the correct way to delete a sub-site that you don't want? Alan Tag: .ink files Tag: 57352

    - Access denied on extranet server Hi all, I finally got my sharepoint portal up and running in extranet and intranet environment. + intranetserver: virtual directory A with WSS installed virtual directory B with Portal running + The extranet server also has 2 virtual directories that point to the same content as the intranetserver, but SSL with Windows integrated authentication. Users can access the intranet-part and the extranet-portal, but the extranet-WSS gives an access denied for all users but the administrators! After 3 logon attempts, they get the sharepoint access request-form, although they ARE users of the site they try to access. Any idea ? Kind regards, Jeroen db Tag: .ink files Tag: 57348

    - Specify Configuration Database error I'm trying to get Sharepoint Server set up. I'm at the Specify Configuration Database Settings page, but I can't get past it.

I was getting a longer message, but now I'm just getting this "Unexpected" one. Any ideas as to what may be wrong? I selected the "Install without Database Engine" option because this server has SQL Server installed. It also is the only server. There are no other servers connected to it.

    - MultiPage Meeting Site Layout Hi, I posted this in the WSS newsgroup but didn't get an answer so I thought I would try here. We will be having multiple Mutipage Meeting subsites. Right now, when a user adds a new page the page comes in blank and they are required to add the webparts. I would like to modify the default layout of a new blank meeting tab so that default webparts are already included then they add it. In addition, I would like to change the layout from 3 columns to something else. The first request is a must-have, the second is a nice to have. Ideally changes could be made using FrontPage and not development. Is this possible? Can some one point me in the right direction? Alan Tag: .ink files Tag: 57338

    - Elevate to Production Am I correct that the best way to elevate the portal from test to production is actually backing up the portal and then restoring it on the production box? or is there a better way. Most of the changes will be to 'sub-areas' and what if we have mulitple 'jobs' in test and only want to elevate one of them? Do we need to only have one at a time in Test. Also moving from Dev to test.... I would do the same backup/ restore? Basically it comes down to is I am looking for a procedural guideline on how to manage a complete DEV/TEST/PROD environment and have production secure and only have design changes allowed by admins... not developers. Make any sense? Thanks in advance, Curt Tag: .ink files Tag: 57334

    - Crawl of Sharepoint 2003 portal with SSL fails Hi, We've setup a Sharepoint 2003 portal, which works quite fine. To do so we used three new servers : One SQL server One job server (index & job) One web server (web & search) The search works fine in almost every case! For one of our customers we need to setup SSL for security purpose together with basic authentication. In this case, the search doesn't work well! We get the following error message : The address could not be found, (0x80041205 - Access is denied. Check that the Default Content Access Account in SharePoint Central Administration is correct, or follow the "Exclude and Include Content" link to add a rule to specify the proper crawling account to access this URL. ) If we don't require SSL and change include & exclude content, everything works fine! All the documents get indexed and you can search through them! Tag: .ink files Tag: 57332

    - Compile audience error - see KB article 827843 Hi, I'm having a problem compiling audiences. I get the symptoms as described in the KB article 827483 (cut and pasted here for clarity):- BEGIN QUOTE SYMPTOMS When you try to compile an audience, or specify an audience compilation schedule in your portal in Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003, you receive an error message that is similar to one of the following: An error occurred while setting the schedule. Please check below for details. -or- An error has occurred while accessing SQL database or system resources. If this is the first time you have seen this message, please try again later. If this problem persists, please contact your administrator. -or- The search service is unavailable or access was denied. Check that the search service is configured properly and running. Back to the top CAUSE This problem occurs if both of the following conditions exist: .The configuration database administration account information is changed. -and- .This changed account information is not updated to the portal. In this scenario, when you try to compile an audience, or create an audience schedule, you should receive the following error message instead of the error messages that are described in the "Symptoms" section of this article: Scheduler_LogonFailure_Error The user name or password is incorrect. Check the account information for the configuration database administrator account on the Configure Server Farm Account Settings page. Back to the top WORKAROUND To work around this problem, verify the credentials specified for the configuration database administration account. To do this, follow these steps: 1.Start SharePoint Central Administration. 2.Under Server Configuration, click Configure Server Farm Account Settings. 3.In the Configuration Database Administration Account area, click to select the Specify account check box. 4.Enter the user account in the Domain\username format, and then type the password in the Password and Confirm Password boxes. 5.Click OK, and then wait for the changes to be propagated to the portal. Back to the top STATUS Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article. END QUOTE I tried to follow the steps outlined in the workaround, but still have the problem - can't compile an audience, and I get the same message (second variant shown in SYMPTOMS above). I note that Step 3 above refers to 'Configuration Database Administration' account, whereas the SPS page I am looking at only refers to :- 'Default Content Access Account' I have tried this using an Active Directory domain account and a local account, both of which are members of the SPS Server's local Administrators group (and should thus have full rights to change any settings for SPS, as I understand it). Can anyone shed any light on why I cannot see this setting to change it? Is it likely that something is corrupted? (I am a relative newbie to SPS, and the initial setup was done by a third party. Hope someone can offer some advice here). Thanks. Tag: .ink files Tag: 57326

    - ANN: The new SharePointV3 yahoogroup is open for business As Microsoft quietly begins to the drum beat leading up the release of Windows SharePoint Services "V3" and SharePoint Portal Server "V3", it is a good time to kick off a mailing list for discussions about V3 information that is in the public domain. I suspect that some MS customers and partners are beginning to learn about V3 on an NDA/confidential disclosure basis. This mailing list is *not* for sharing confidential information you receive from Microsoft. Rather, as you see SharePoint V3 snippets in weblogs, news articles and various beta sites that track early Microsoft product developments, plse share a link to those sites by emailing mailto:sharepointv3@yahoogroups.com.

    - Document Quotas Hello! Recently we have run into a problem with the number of documents our users are uploading into a single document library. According to the document "Capacity Planning for Windows SharePoint Services" (http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/wss/2/all/adminguide/en-us/stsb07.mspx) we should be creating sub-folders in this document library since there are well over 2000 documents in it (about 20,000) all contained in the base folder. Is there a mechanism for quotas on the number of documents in a library? I know we can create quotas based on overall size, but we are interested in quotas on numbers of documents...preferably per folder. I did not find any information on these types of quotas. The crux of the issue is that this interfering with the CommVault backups of our portal. According to CommVault, we need to fix this based on the information contained in the "Capacity Planning for Windows SharePoint Services" document. Any help is most appreciated. -- Take care, Brian Tag: .ink files Tag: 57292

    - Help! Design tips for a Portal Knowledge Base At the company I work for, our small IT staff is running into the problem that our employees don't have a proper storage space for their documents. They complain that they have documents that are useful outside of their department and would like us to create a designated site/area for these files. This has been an ongoing problem for everyone and to solve it I would like to design a central knowledge base where we can upload, organize, and possibly discuss these docs. We're all n00bs with Sharepoint and are having issues coming up with a good design and structure for this KB. What we would like to have is a tree hierarchy (not unlike a discussion board) that's organized by topic or category. Where users can post articles, comments, start discussions, and upload/attach documents. In addition we'd like for our documents to belong to multiple categories/topics as they are applicable. For example: I have a document on HOW TO use Remote Desktop. That document could fall under the topic: Accessing a Remote Server, but also the topic: Assisting Desktop Users. If I search for "remote desktop" I want that document to show it is a "member" of those topics. Perhaps there's a way to use metadata? At this point, anything is helpful!!

Please verify that the server can be contacted or install Document Management components on the server." The sharepoint is actually installed on the same server that I'm trying to contact. Sherepoint actually had no other problems during configuration or usage or portal on this server. Even I can create documents in the library from my PC. So why do I get the above error when configuring server topology? My understanding is that Document Library component is installed by default and no additional components are needed.

Go to My Computer > Tools > Folder Options and the File Type tab. Find the
.ink file type and select it. Click the advanced button below. In there will
be a check box for always confirm open after download - uncheck it

Sorry I typed an i istead of an L

I want to run a .LNK file "Shortcut" on my intranet site.
I have already tried to change the File Type Tab and windows just
erases it everytime.
I've also tried to change the extention to .whatever and then set
windows to open a .whatever as a shortcut. IE still blocks this.
There must be somewhere in the registry that you can change this.

There should be a checkbox on the pop up message that states something like
always perform this action.

Yes there is a checkbox on the pop up message but its greyed out. I
want to know how to un-grey out this box. Its a .LNK file.
