    - Crazy Switch Hi. I have a DELL 1600SC with MS SBS2000 SP4 installed. Mi system worked fine, but after few days, i realize the switch's LINK/ACT leds started to blink, and never stops. Even i reboot the server, the switch immediatly start to blink again. I think it happened after i configured the domain on the server and clients. Could it be the cause? Please, can somebody tellme how can i detect the procces or the machine who is sending traffic on the net. Is there a tool or utility to find and kill that proccess. TIA.

    - Identify source IP for Security Log Failure Audits (ISA?) I am getting lots of failed logon attempts from a particular OUTSIDE workstation. I want to identify the port & source IP. I am running ISA with the usual SMTP, POP, DNS, TS, FTP and a few other ports open - I use all of them for one purpose or another. Is ISA the place to look to identify the source IP and port?

    - Question about Exchange backup/restore Hello all, I have a customer who has decided to replace his SBS2000 server hardware (the whole box) I will have the new box completely setup with his existing SBS2000 software in advance, then will 'down' his old box and bring the new box up in it's place. I will have tape backups of everything before I start. His existing AD domain is mycompany.com (Yeah, yeah, I know... his choice), but I would like his new AD domain to be mycompany.local, *and* the machine name will change from sbserver to mail. What is the best way to migrate his Exchange data from the old to the new box. (I have a week to plan for this) Thanks in advance for your suggestions. Tag: Administrator account losing permissions?

    - Outlook 2002 Client on SBS I have a laptop which will not install Outlook 2002 client from the SBS admin console. When the user logs onto the laptop (winXP)the message states software ready to install (click install or cancel) as it should but when i click the install button it simply hangs and then reboots the laptop. It does look as though it is attemtpting to install though. If i try re-running the add software wizard from SBS admin console the next time the user logs on it simply says software ready to install again upon login and then comes back with a red cross saying installion not ok in a dialog box after a couple of seconds. If i look in ADD/Remove programs Outlook2002 is in there however no shortcuts are placed on the desktop or i can't access through the run command also when i do a search for outlook from run/search all i get is outlook express coming as result. I installed Outlook the way i always do by right clicking the computer name in SBS console and choosing ADD software then selecting the outlook2002 checkbox. This machine initially had Outlook2000 a while back under a different users profile then we upgraded it to Outlook2002 for her but sometimes this users was getting an option saying cannot find <FileName> on Office disk1 then if you cancelled that a few times Outlook woudl work ok.. I have had no problems with most installs of the Outlook2002 client but i seem to recall having a problem similar to this problem about 6 months ago. Also can someone tell me if they believe it is best to install Outlook etc. as the propsed user of a system or as the Domain Administartor. Any advice much appreciated.

Is there a good RAS solution for dial-up or would GSM phone connection be better? I have used MS PPTP VPN (SBS 2000 RRAS) alright with ADSL, but with dial-up it is unusable in this way.

    - can vpn but nothing else Hi I have, what I think is, a working vpn between my sbs2000 server (ip 10.0.0.2) and a remote sbs2000 (192.168.16.2). I can ping all pcs on the remote (192.168.16.x) network I have taken off the whole 19.2168.x.x range from my own LAT to avoid any potential problems. The problem is that I can not connect to the a remote terminal server (part of the remote sbs2000 domain) using ts contact manager even though I can ping the terminal server. What is wrong here and how can I fix it? Thanks Regards Tag: Administrator account losing permissions? Tag: 160089

    - Relocate Useres Shared Folders I am currently migrating my existing SBS 4.5 to a new SBS 2000 installation and want to relocate User's Shared Folders to another drive. On my existing SBS 4.5 system, I have done this and shared out each sub folder as User1$, User2$ etc. In this way, each user gets access to his own share, but can't see any others. I have tried doing this on the new SBS 2000 installaion, but the Add User Wizard seems to complain because I've got rid of the "User" share. Do I have to have the "User" share, or is there a registry hack to get around this situation? Thanks, Gary Tag: Administrator account losing permissions? Tag: 160022

Previous to this installation I had Win 2003 Server on my drive. The Boot.ini file on my C: properly directed the load up depending on which O/S I chose at the startup. The problem I am now experiencing is that when I choose to go to my Windows XP drive Windows 2000 SBS starts to load, but crashes immediatley looking for a file in windows/system32. Windows is the correct folder for my Win Xp drive (vs. Winnt on SBS) My Boot.ini was removed from my C drive to my desktop during the installation. When I try and paste it back on to c: I get a message saying do I want to replace the boot.ini file already on C:, which I can't see or find (proper setting have been applied to show hidden files. I have elected not to overwrite this file. I am concerned that if I do a repair on Win XP (did one on SBS it did solve the problem) that I will screw up access to both systems Any help would be appreciated.

    - Veritas WMI Backup problem Hello Group, I have a customer running Veritas 9.1 SBE on a 2000 SBS. All was fine until the backup stopped working, with "An error occurred retrieving the WMI Repository data directory" displayed in the Veritas backup log. I tracked this down to http://support.veritas.com/docs/253921 which suggests I manually backup the WMI data through the WMI properties. This produces an error "Failed to connect to local computer because windows server execution failed." The Veritas article helpfully states that if an error is produced then Microsoft support should be contacted, but I can't find a relevant knowledgebase article. Please help, our customer isn't getting a backup. Rob Tag: Administrator account losing permissions? Tag: 160015

    - SID Hi I am getting the warning in the event log Source: SceCli Type: Warning Event ID: 1202 Computer: Computer name Description: Security policies are propagated with warning. 0x534 : No mapping between account names and security IDs was done. For best results in resolving this event, log on with a non-administrative account and search http://support.microsoft.com for "troubleshooting 1202 events". A user account in one or more Group policy objects (GPOs) could not be resolved to a SID. This error is possibly caused by a mistyped nor deleted user account referenced in either the User Rights or Restricted Groups branch of a GPO. To resolve this event, contact an administrator in the domain to perform the following actions: 1.Identify accounts that could not be resolved to a SID: From the command prompt, type: FIND /I "Cannot find" %SYSTEMROOT%\Security\Logs\winlogon.log The string following "Cannot find" in the FIND output identifies the problem account names. Example: Cannot find JohnDough. In this case, the SID for username "JohnDough" could not be determined. This most likely occurs because the account was deleted, renamed, or is spelled differently (e.g. "JohnDoe"). 2.Identify the GPOs that contain the unresolvable account name: From the command prompt type FIND /I "JohnDough" %SYSTEMROOT%\Security\templates\policies\gpt*.* The output of the FIND command will resemble the following: ---------- GPT00000.DOM ---------- GPT00001.DOM SeRemoteShutdownPrivilege=JohnDough This indicates that of all the GPOâ??s being applied to this machine, the unresolvable account exists only in one GPO. Specifically, the cached GPO named GPT00001.DOM. Now we need to determine the friendly name of this GPO in the next step. 3. Locate the friendly names of each of the GPOs that contain an unresolvable account name. These GPOs were identified in the previous step. From the command prompt, type: FIND /I "[Mapping]" %SYSTEMROOT%\Security\Logs\winlogon.log The string following "[Mapping] gpt0000?.dom =" in the FIND output identifies the friendly names for all GPOâ??s being applied to this machine. Example: [Mapping] gpt00001.dom = User Rights Policy In this case, the GPO that contains the unresolvable account (gpt00001.dom) has a friendly name of "User Rights Policy". 4. Remove unresolved accounts from each GPO that contains an unresolvable account. a. Start -> Run -> MMC.EXE b. From the File menu select "Add/Remove Snap-inâ?¦" c. From the "Add/Remove Snap-in" dialog box select "Addâ?¦" d. In the "Add Standalone Snap-in" dialog box select "Group Policy" and click "Add" e. In the "Select Group Policy Object" dialog box click the "Browse" button. f. On the "Browse for a Group Policy Object" dialog box choose the "All" tab g. Right click on the first policy identified in step 3 and choose edit h. Review each setting under Computer Configuration/ Windows Settings/ Security Settings/ Local Policies/ User Rights Assignment or Computer Configuration/ Windows Settings/ SecuritySettings/ Restricted Groups for accounts identified in step 1. i. Repeat steps 3g and 3h for all subsequent GPOs identified in step 3. How to solve this problem Tag: Administrator account losing permissions? Tag: 159997

    - Backup exec quirk? 9.1 BE, SBS2k. Public Folder backup. Hi All, Using BackUp Exec 9.1 SP1 on an SBS2k Server. I was reviewing my backup selections in a new installation of BE and noticed that under the selection "Microsoft Exchange Public Folders" I only see "Internet Newsgroups." Where is my public calendar? But I see the "Public Folder Store" under "Microsoft Information Store" > "First Storage Group". In addition, I also see the "Mailbox Store" under the same group of "Microsoft Information Store" > "First Storage Group". Is this by design? Has it always been like this but I never noticed? Note that the HTTP Exchange Virtual Server is disabled in this case, if this makes a difference. Thanks John Tag: Administrator account losing permissions? Tag: 159994

    - SBS POP3 Connector Client has been using the POP3 conector to retrieve mail for several months; yesterday it stopped working. If I click the 'Retrieve now' button on the properties dialogue, get message 'Initialization Error'. No error number, nothing in the application event log in event viewer. I have set diagnostics logging to maximum for this connector. Is there a separate event log for Exchange / POP3 connector events? I have tried removing and replacing the global ISP mail host record in the POP3 connector dialogue, and also re- booting the server. Anyone got any ideas how to troubleshoot this? TIA Paul Tag: Administrator account losing permissions? Tag: 159975

    - Solution - Win2k SBS POP3 Connector - C0000005 ACCESS_VIOLATION Group, Had this error yesterday, a Google search didn't come up with a quick solution so I thought I'd post how I fixed it, in our case. (I think) it turned out to be a corrupt message in the POP3 Conn. queues. I had read on some older posts that corrupt email can jam up the service, and proceeded to delete the mail on our hosting server - did not fix the problem. We also had a corrupt event app log, which I thought maybe hung up the service. So I fixed that (set eventview service to Disabled, reboot, delete ..\system32\config\*.evt, reset service to Auto, reboot). POP3 Conn started, but would not retreieve mail. Finally I stopped the POP3 Connector and deleted orphaned messages in ..\Program Files\MS BackOffice\???\POP3 Conn\Incoming and InForward, and another directory full of .etb files (can't remember as I write this, on different machine now) that turned out to be the account information. Recreating the account information after restarting the service seemed to solve the issue and the POP3 Connector is working again. Something in there was corrupt. We also had those event log problems and my wins db was corrupt, and CHKDSK took a long time (was remote so couldn't see screen + logging was disabled) so I'm thinking drive issues. Possibly antivirus quaratined something out of there and fubared it, I have since excluded the directory. Hope this helps someone in the future.

    - Users Hi, If the server is SBS2000 then you do not need to create the computer account on the server. With Win2000 servers the accounts are created when the computer is joined to the domain. Make sure that you have joined the domain using a user account that has permission to create the account. Tag: Administrator account losing permissions? Tag: 159965

Every day I take a look at the backup report by clicking on "Backup" on the
Server Management page. This morning I got the message " ... must be a
member of the Domain Admins group" to view this page. I am using the
Administrator account which is a member of this group.

What would cause such an issue?

Thanks.
