    - Reconfigured Internet access, now POP3 won't work. I'm baffled but pretty sure what I did caused the problem. I had SBS2000 configured with ISA using two network adapters. Everything was working fine. I reconfigured the Internet to just go through a firewall/router on the network. I disabled ISA, disconnected the second network adapter, and configured the server to use the Internet through the single network adapter connected to a router, etc. I then reconfigured the clients and everything seemed to be running fine. Outlook users get their e-mails, all can access the internet, VPN works fine, etc. I just noticed a problem with a user who was using a phone/pda device which was pulling their e-mails from the server through POP3 service. Ever since I made this switch, I cannot connect to the server using POP3 in Outlook Express, etc. I get the following error: The server xxxxxxx unexpectedly disconnected. error code 0x800CCC90 No error messsage. When I try to telnet to the server through port 110, it is immediately disconnected. I can telnet through port 143 and 25. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Sorry for the long post.

    - SBS2K Server, how to change local policy, auditing on. Make Effective Setting. Hello, I ran Microsoft's MBSA 1.2.1 and noticed that auditing was not on on one server. I turned auditing on for the domain on the server, I verified the xp workstations were correct, auditing is on in GP. But how I do it turn on auditing for the local server itself? I changed the domain policy through Active Directory Users and Computers. For the local server itself, I thought it was done through Domain Controller Security Policy. But the server itself states, in the Domain Controller Security Policy, that the only Local Setting set (success, failure) and Effective Setting set is "Audit Account Management." The rest state the correct setting in Local Setting but "No Auditing." in Effective Setting. And I Change the Effective Setting. Was I supposed to instead of editing the default domain policy in Active Directory Users and Computers, add a new one? I tried that, to no avail. I am missing an obvious setup in this equation. Thanks in advance, Smith Tag: Coming Soon: Windows Small Business Server 2003 Service Pack 1 Tag: 172728

    - Missing installation Media I'm running SBS 2000 in a 25 user office. I was reviewing our disaster recory plan and noticed that we do not have the orignial SBS 2000 installation CD Media. My company got the server thru a reseller who is out of business and the person I took over from has no clue about the CD's. We do have the invoices and the CAL floppies. Can I get the CD media from Microsoft? I do have a trial version of SBS 2000 and thought I saw someplace that it could be upgrade/activated to the licensed version ?

I am using SBS 2003...I see on the users Profile where I can set the time they are allowed to Logon....but the problem is, How Do I make Sure they Log OFF at the Specified Time? If they Logout, they are unable to Log back in until tomorrow, but providing they do not Log Off, they can remain connected to the Network.

    - SBS 2003/.net framework I am about to upgrade to SBS 2003 from SBS 2000. I gather that 2003 comes with .net framework version 1.1. We currently use a .Net application that is only tested to work on .net framework ver 1.0 When I upgrade will the current 1.0 framework be upgraded to version 1.1, or will it install a new version of 1.1 and leave the exisitng framework alone? I understand that both versions of the framework can be installed on the same machine. If it does upgrade the current version will I be ok installing 1.0 again on SBS 2003?

    - Upgrade path(s) from SBS2000 Hello, I'm am trying to find out the most sensible upgrade path from my current SBS2000 network. I currently have a Dell Poweredge server with 2Gb RAM, approx 210Gb of RAID 5 storage and 50 CALs. Currently I am using approx 140Gb of disk space, I have 55 users that would like(!) to login, we use exchange (approx 8Gb store size), OWA, SQL server, IIS, ISA, Trend CSM, Vertias BackupExec, MailEssentials (for SPAM) and obviously file & print services. I need in the short term to (a) get the 5 extra users on the system (b) add another 5 users. In the medium term I expect to have to add another 10-15 users. I see two possibilities:- 1. Move to SBS2003 2. Move to seperate servers. Firstly, if I want to move to SBS 2003, what upgrade/licences do I need to buy? I have seen mentioned Transistion, upgrade and full copies of the (premium) product plus transistional, upgrade and additional extra CAL's Alternatively, if I move to seperate servers how many (or more appropriately how few!) do I need and what are the most sensible licencing options for Exchange, SQL server and IIS?

It so happened that the user had some messages that were 40/120mb in size emails. I used the filter on the deleted items folder and set it to anything less than 5mb in size.

    - Fax Server issues.... I know this isn't the correct area to post this issue but hopefully someone has had this issue before... We have installed a BrookTrout TRUFax 2 port board into our WIndwos 2003 "standard" server and installed the "Fax" services so we can send receive faxes... The software installs fine but it will not "see" the fax board. It simply says "All fax printers are inaccessible" in teh status area (bottom right) of the "Fax Monitor". If you attempt to go into "Tools->Fax Service Manager" a message is displayed saying... "Could not open a connection to the fax service. The faxx service might not be started or the computer name might be incorrect". The fax service is strted and runing under the Local system\nt authority account" It will then take you to the "Fax Service Manager Window" but you cannot do anything. If you right click "Fax" in teh left pane and click "Properties' I get an "Access Denied" error... Also, if I right click the "Fax" printer added to "Printers and Faxes" and right click to access the Properties, I get a "You do not have security permissions to complete this operation. Contact the fax administrator for more information." error message. I even found a document that suggested adding the "Local System", Network Services" and "Administrators" groups to the local security policy - Windows Settings/Security Settings/Local Policies/User Rights Assignment - "Generate Security Audits" policy but that did not solve the problem... This Win2K3 server is a backup domain controller and I am logged on with my domain account. Has anyone ahd this type of a problem??? Thanks, Brad PS... This partiular brooktrout board is meant for a Win2K3 server - it does not work in a WIn2K server. Tag: Coming Soon: Windows Small Business Server 2003 Service Pack 1 Tag: 172681

    - Cannot Find Number of Licences Installed? Hi, I've inherited a Small Business Server 2000 that was built by somebody else, anyway it had none of the SBS admin stuff on there so today I installed it all from the SBS setup on CD1. I still cannot find how many licences are installed, any suggestions? I'm quite sure the server came with 5, but the company I worked for have 9 employees, however I don't want to buy a 5 CAL pack if they'll soon need 20. Likewise I don't want to buy 20 if they already have 10 installed!!! Thanks in advance Daz Tag: Coming Soon: Windows Small Business Server 2003 Service Pack 1 Tag: 172678

    - Network with SBS via VLAN's What am attempting to accomplish is to have 2 Vlans. One VLAN would have the SBS server on it and would support my computer network and IP Phones on that priviate network. Then I want to create a 2nd Vlan that would just support IP Phones and would not require and of the services of the SBS. Basically what I am trying to accomplish is to have a 2 node IP Telelephone system. Adtran make a device that that a router, a managed switch, and Power over Ethernet all in one. I plan on using this Adtran device to set up the 2 VLANs' and also connect my broadband connection to it. I plan on mapping the two VLAN's together so the IP Phones can communicate. I would set up the SBS Server with only one network adapter and the Adtran router would become the default gateway. I will also be installing a Harware firewall. Do this sound like it would work. Thanks in advance for any input. gregp Tag: Coming Soon: Windows Small Business Server 2003 Service Pack 1 Tag: 172671

    - Another Question on Exchange Disk Space Again, thanks to you all for your input on my question about disk space for Exchange. I did an Exchange-aware backup last night and freed up about a half-gig of space on the M: drive. That still leaves me with only 1.9GB of free space on my M: drive. But as I understand it from your responses, if the M: drive is a virtual drive pointer to the Exchange database stored on my C: drive then the amount of free space on the M: drive is irrelevant since that's not where the data is stored If what I said above is correct, then I'm still low on disk space for Exchange because I have less than 2GB of free space on my C: drive. But I have almost 40GB of free space on drive F: which is where I store users' home folders and company folders. Would it be OK to move the Exchange database to the F: drive under an Exchange folder even though it's not a partition? Thanks so much.

    - Server Replacement I have an old SBS2000 server, very old CPU, maxed out RAM wise. Old system has 2 HD (20 GB C:, 80 GB D). Am purchasing a new server, Dell PowerEdge 800 with two (2) 160 GB drives. I need to replace my OLD SBS2000 server with the new one, but don't want to have to manually reconfigure everything.

    - Exchange 2K is getting hammered We are getting mercilessly hammered with what looks like people relaying spam through our Exchange server. I followed the advice last year to make sure we aren't an open relay but the Current Sessions queue in SMTP is constantly filled with email from outside domains and we are getting 10-20K undeliverable emails everyday. If I adjust the Access checkboxes so Anonymous Access is removed the spam stops but we don't receive outside email. This is an Exchange 2000 server with SP3 on SBS2K and we are hosting our own email for three different domains. I talked to our consultant today and he suggested putting another box in front of the Exchange server so it can get hammered and not the SBS server. I'm going to research this and I was wondering if anyone else had some alternate ideas on dealing with this. Thanks! Tag: Coming Soon: Windows Small Business Server 2003 Service Pack 1 Tag: 172629

    - Forwarding mail to external mailcontact and deliver locally Hi all, I have this problem on a SBS2000 and also on the SBS2003 version. Forwarding (AD Users, Exchange General, Forwarding) to an external contact works fine. Sending Mail directly to that contact also works fine! But when I ask exchange to deliver the messages to both the forwarding address and Exchange mailbox, the forwarding doesn't work anymore. :-( Strange thing is that this used to work on several servers, but now (maybe due to a service pack update?) this doesn't work anymore for new forwardings! Does anyone has suggestions? Thanks in advance, G! Tag: Coming Soon: Windows Small Business Server 2003 Service Pack 1 Tag: 172581

    - Questions about how to set up exchange 2003 Hello, I want to run the wizard to connect to the internet especially for Exchange. I'm not sure about some of the questions. We have a domain name registered and hosted by our ISP. We get pop3 e-mail from them without a problem. I don't know how to answer the wizard when it asks to "Use DNS to route e-mail" or "Forward all e-mail to e-mail server at your ISP" Next question is "E-amil is delivered directly to my server" or "Email held at ISP until my server sends a signal". How do i determine the answers to these questions and what do i ask my ISP to get the answers to these questions. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    - Problems with mail delivery Sorry for posting twice.Not sure if this one went trough, I don't see my message anywhere, so here I go again. This is my scenario: We use exchange to send internal emails, share calendar, ect, we use and outside service to receive external emails. Guys something weird is happening here with one user when one user cpalermo CC people within the office (ex.cnicholes) and does "sent to" someone outside the office and when the person from the outside replies he receives the following message: Subject: Delivery Status Notification (Failure) The following message to <cnicholes@mydomain.local> was undeliverable. The reason for the problem: 5.1.2 - Bad destination host 'DNS Hard Error looking up mydomain.local (MX): NXDomain' When I go to cnicholes account in AD his default emial address is cnicholes@mydomaim.com which is correct and this is how it should be. His secondary is cnicholes@mydomain.local Also some users have in their address books with types of entries (FQDN and non-FQDN) for each person email address from within the office. By default, their Outlook inserts the non-FQDN. I would apreciate if some one can tell me or help me look for a solution for this one. This is only happening with this one user. Thanks to everyone in advance. Denise Tag: Coming Soon: Windows Small Business Server 2003 Service Pack 1 Tag: 172564
