    - Determining what process has a file open... I am trying to delete a file. I keep getting an error indicating that the file is in use. Looking at computer management does not show this file in use by anyone/thing. Is there some utility which will show you all locked files and what/who has them open??

    - Trend CSM Anti-Spam in Public Folders? Hi all, I've just upgraded to CSM v3.0 on my Small Biz 2000 server and all is working well. Users' spam is being correctly filtered into their respective spam folders but public folders still seem to be getting the same level of spam. I've looked at all options on the Security Dashboard and tried the Trend website but can't find any way to configure Anti-Spam for public folders. Any ideas?

    - CALs floppy I need to add 5 CALs to a SBS2000 server with 25 CALs installed. I know I have to buy SBS2003 CALs and downgrade them. But the question is: where I can buy/find the floppy diskette?

    - MI5 Persecution: Dirk Gently on the Toronto Case Dirk was on the West Coast when he got the call. An old friend at the Toronto police department thought he would like to fly up and take a look at a homicide which had occurred the previous evening. He decided to skip the last day at the World Holistics conference and take the next plane out of San Francisco. The flight was bad; Dirk had been hit on the back of the head by the Newspaper trolley, the drinks trolley, the dinner trolley and now the gift trolley. When the hostesses weren?t trying to tear his arm off they pestered him to stop leaning into the aisle - ignoring the fact that the guy next to him was taking up one and a half seats. Air Canada used to be the flight which was so good you just didn?t wanna get off - on this occasion Dirk would be glad to see the back of the plane and the over sized alternative comedian wedged into the window seat. After breathing in a couple of lungfulls of crisp Canadian air Dirk took a taxi into town. There was a small group of demonstrators outside the MacDonalds and the taxi driver insisted on stopping on the opposite side of the street. ?Don?t Eat Meat? the placards read and the demonstrators chanted. A couple of policemen where stopping the crowd entering the restaurant itself - one held up his arm and challenged Dirk. A wave of the fax he had been sent and the policeman pushed open the door. There were few customers in the restaurant. Not surprising really with a demonstration going on outside, half the dining area roped off with tape and a dead body seated at one of the tables. ?Mr Gently sir? the officer in charge called out as he peeled one end of the tape off a column ?We were told not to touch anything til? you got here?. The body of the man slumped awkwardly in a chair. Then even a dead body would start getting uncomfortable in a MacDonalds chair after twenty minutes - and this one had been there for at least eighteen hours. Two back legs and the tail of a cat hung out of the man?s gaping mouth. Dirk turned to the officer, ?I suppose you are going to tell me this is the darndest thing you ever saw?? ?Ain?t this the darnd...?. The officer seemed annoyed that Dirk had second guessed him. ?We?re removing the body in a few minutes, so if you can get through as quick as possible? ?Many people eat cats in fast food restaurants?? Dirk asked and without waiting for an answer leant over the table to pick up an untouched burger. ?And what?s this?? he asked waving it in front of the officers face. ?It?s a Vedgie Burger? The waitress, who was cleaning one of the adjacent tables, shouted across. She walked over to Dirk. ?We started doing them because of that lot out there? she nodded towards the protesters who were pressing there faces against the windows ?They?re called Linda McCartney Vedgie burgers - ever heard of them?? Dirk suddenly felt faint, perhaps a combination of hunger and jet lag. ?This is deja vu all over again? he thought to himself. He glanced at policemen - at the badge on his shoulder ?OPD? but this wasn?t Ontario this was Toronto. OPD - Officially Pronounced Dead. It dawned on Dirk what was happening, he knew what he would see if he looked out of the window. Sure enough, there it was, the Volkswagen Beetle parked across the road - number plate 28IF - 28 IF Paul McCartney had lived. And amongst the lyrics of the song blaring out into the restaurant he could pick out the words ?I buried Paul?. Now it was though Dirk was viewing the whole scene though a TV screen. This was conspiracy. Not -a- conspiracy, or -the- conspiracy, but just plain conspiracy. ?You look faint - are you OK mister? The waitress asked. Dirk shook his head ?Probably a bit hungry? Then to economise on dialogue took out a pack of cigarettes and held it out towards the girl. She was about to take one but Dirk snatched the pack away, held it up to his mouth and drew out two cigarettes. He lit both then passed one of them to the girl. It was the closest he had come to a sexual encounter in three months. ?Want a Burger?? the waitress asked. Dirk looked down at the Vedgie Burger on the table. ?No thanks - just a plate of fries? The waitress walked away and Dirk looked around the room. Apart from a family seated in the far corner there was only one other person in the restaurant - and he wasn?t eating. The guy was about mid twenties and had straggling, shoulder length hair. On the table in front of him were lots of pieces of paper cut into squares. Every so often he would pick up a camcorder and pan it around the room and then, when he was finished, speak into a microphone which was attached to a tape recorder. Dirk walked over to where the man was sitting. The small pieces of paper had paragraphs of text written on them and were stuck to the top of table with blobs of mustard. Lines had been drawn, some solid some dotted, on the table top with a marker pen. The lines ran from one piece of paper to another. ?What are the lines for?? Dirk asked, realising straight away that ?What the hell are you doing?? would be more appropriate. ?You see? The man replied nervously ?The dotted lines are weak links and the solid lines are strong links. The dotted lines are things which are happening in the rest of the world and the solid lines are things which are happening to me. Now you see I draw over a dotted line, replacing it with a solid line, when I can link something back to me. Like this? The pen squeaked over the Formica and before Dirk could interrupt the man added. ?You see I lost my short term memory and, as a consequence have a very short attention span. I write down, record and film everything then put it all together later? ?So? Dirk interrupted. ?You filmed what happened here?? ?Yes, yes, it?s here on this tape? The man pushed the cassette across the table. On the label the words ?Grassy Knoll? had been crossed through and replaced with ?MacDonalds?. Suddenly the man sprung from his seat. Dirk turned and saw that the body was being removed on a stretcher. As it passed the man picked a small object off the edge of the stretcher itself. ?This is important? he said, laying a blood stained bullet on one of the small pieces of paper on the table. Suddenly the room was filled with a deafening throbbing sound as a Black Helicopter landed in the street outside. Two men in United Nations uniforms got out and collected the stretcher. Back at the table the long haired man was replacing all the dotted lines with solid ones. Dirk panicked and began to walk backwards at some speed. Barging through the swing doors he stumbled into the kitchen, tripped and felt himself sink slowly into a large vat. ?The guys fallen into the batter? Dick heard someone shout before he sunk below the surface. He came to sitting in a chair with the batter solidifying all over his body. He surveyed the room through two eye-holes someone had cut. Suddenly the chair on which he was sitting was picked up carried through the restaurant and out of the building. As the chair was being lifted and put into the back of a van, Dirk caught a glimpse of the waitress following him. ?Your fries mister, your plate o...?. The doors of the van shut and Dirk tried desperately to steady himself as it sped across town. Eventually the doors flew open and Dirk was flung into the road at which point the solidified batter shattered and set him free. Standing up he found himself outside the international departures terminal of Toronto airport. In the departure lounge Dirk had time to reflect on the day?s events. He had got caught up in the conspiracy theories and the haphazard welding together of pieces of irrelevant information. It was time to catch the person who was operating the bizarre cognitive engine which appeared in front of him like a fairground mirror, distorting any flaw it could find in his own, fragile, map of the real world. Dirk leant into the aisle of the plane as it took off for London. The oversized person next to him swung his arms violently as he complained about every thing from the supper in a plastic tray to the state of British politics. With a shaven head and a badly fitting suit the man looked as though he could have worked behind the reception desk of the Kremlin. However when he spoke he did so in a Liverpudlian accent. ?Me I blame the Con-serv-a-tive government, me. The Tour-rees. That-cher. Me. They need a good kicking? He jerked his feet forward and struck the seat in front with his Doc Martins. ?With these. Me Doc Martins. Doctor Martin?s, Doctor Martin?s, Doctor Martin?s Booots!? The phrase was now being sung over and over again as the man writhed in his seat and clicked his fingers. Dirk looked down at the boots and thought of the reaction most people used to deal with the paranoids at the end of the wire. A nice quick kick. ?Oi nutter - get some therapy?. This is the easy way out and perhaps the safest. After all there you are sat, alone, in front of the screen. No body language between you some paranoid. No way of telling if he really is some gibbering psycho. Look at it too long and you be drawn in. Fall into the tangled database of weird links with him. Who knows he may be watching you, reassembling and linking your experiences with his. How sure are you of you own cognitive threads. After all cognition is only a bug fix for a neurological system which was designed in a hurry - it?s abused by everyone from politicians to advertisers. If people really can convince each other that a bottle of washing up liquid is as exciting as an orgasm using just television God knows what they can do with a computer. Better to avoid the risk. A swift kick. After all if you?re Homophobic you put the boot in because you are scared of any ambiguity in your own sexuality - why not be Nutterphobic as well. Although Dirk would have liked to devoted time to tracking the culprit down he decided to let it rest. The Internet changed over the next twenty odd years. A lot of the people who used it went out and got lives. And those who already had lives burnt them away. The number of users had dwindled after someone had invented a C++ program, with truth as a variable, to deal handle politics and government. Dirk had already retired from finding old ladies cats with the help of obscure science when he got another call from Toronto. It was 4th March 2025 when he booked onto the Air Canada flight from Heathrow. The silver haired woman in the seat next to him painted bright red lipstick around her mouth. ?Of course it was no surprise to be offered the job after Claire Raynor retired? she sneered? After all I used to be a psychiatric nurse... Now if Blokes had periods they would understand...? By chance the taxi ride to Toronto mental hospital took him past the MacDonalds - where the whole thing had started. Of course it was barely recognisable having become a Church Of Scientology Vedgie Bar. Police in riot gear kept the two sets of demonstrators apart. Dirk didn?t really know what to expect when he got to the hospital. The girl at the reception desk directed him to a row of chairs in a wide well lit corridor. There was a strong smell of disinfectant, the furniture and the carpets were immaculately clean and behind the rows of teak veneer doors the ?nutters? were all safely locked away. For some reason Dirk started thinking about CompuServe forums. A tall blond woman in a white coat approached. ?Mr Gentle, I assume? ?Yes? Dirk replied shaking her by the hand. ?You?re the nurse who...? ?Doctor? She interrupted, ?Doctor Killfile? She led Dirk across the corridor towards one of the doors then stopped with her hand resting on the handle. ?Now you know about this person don?t you?? and after Dirk nodded she continued ?Don?t tell him anything about yourself - don?t let him get into you head. If he does he?ll screw it up? The door opened to reveal a frail man sitting in from of a TV screen. He had a keyboard on his lap and next to the television was a computer screen. Dirk glanced at the walls of the room and remembered that his settee at home need upholstering. The nurse left the room and the man looked up ?So you come to my daughters wedding and ask me to kill a man? he said in a dry cackling voice. ?Look? he continued, pointing at the screen, ?I know that man. They?re talking about me now - listen?. The man stared at Dirk. ?What?s your name? Are you one of my friends from the Internet? - Are the lambs still screaming Dirk?? Dirk, at first recoiled in horror, then felt a sense of anti climax. So this is what they hyped up to superstar status on the back of their own fears of madness. Dirk was reminded of the film ?A day on The Beach? where a submarine had set off to search a post nuclear World to track down a signal coming from a remote military base - only to find it was being sent by a Coke bottle half balanced on a Morse tapper. Outside the room the nurse waited for him. Because his nicotine craving had returned - and to avoid an awkward piece of dialogue - Dirk turned to her and asked . ?Patch?? Dirk took two nicotine patches from his wallet the first of which he stuck onto the inside of his arm. Stepping closer to Doctor Killfile he opened her white coat and slid his hand into the opening at the front of her dress. He pressed the patch onto her leg as close to the top of her inner thigh as he dare. She took a deep breath and then slowly breathed out. ?What Bogart could have done with these things? Dirk thought to himself. ?Is he crazy?? Dirk asked tilting his head back to towards the door. ?Who knows? Doctor Killfile replied ?We let him type away. He sees something on the TV in the morning and it keeps him busy all day. What he types doesn?t go anywhere it just stays on a mainframe in the basement. It can be read by anyone else in the building but that?s it. We got them all in here conspiracy theorists, racists, nationalists. They?ve created a world within a world really...? Her voice trailed away and she stared down the corridor for a while then added ?So long are two things are different neither will come to be in the other and so become at once both one and two.? Dirk gave her a puzzled look ?You mean their brains are fried?? ?Fried?? Killfile smiled at Dirk ?No that was Plato?. Then the smile fell from her face. ?You must remember, mister, plate o...? 695 Tag: Exchange Server Build Number and Mailbox Store issues Tag: 178947

    - MI5 Persecution: Security Service Tribunal Denies Security Service Tribunal Denies In June 1997 the Security Service Tribunal wrote to me regarding the complaint I had brought against MI5 in February. They say, The Security Service Tribunal have now investigated your complaint and have asked me to inform you that no determination in your favour has been made on your complaint. Again, I do not believe their denials. I think MI5 *has* taken the action against me as described, and is refusing to admit what they have done. To the best of my knowledge, the Security Service Tribunal has *never* found in favour of a complainant. This tends to strongly suggest that MI5 lies on a routine basis, and the Tribunal can't fulfil its functions in the face of Security Service falsehoods. 695 Tag: Exchange Server Build Number and Mailbox Store issues Tag: 178946

    - MI5 Persecution: Communications with Security Service Tribunal in 1999 Communications with Security Service Tribunal in 1999 I took some more potshots at the SS-Tribunal in the first half of 1999. The correspondence between myself and the Tribunal Secretary is detailed on this webpage. Ultimately I decided not to pursue another complaint with them, partly from Robin Ramsay's advice (and that of a solicitor I consulted), but mostly because it was rather obvious from Mr Brooks' replies that the Tribunal has no investigative means of its own and is that useless animal, a toothless watchdog. Included with this first letter was a copy of the leaflet, "Complaints about the Security Service". This tells you that the Tribunal can order "the service to end its inquiries about you; the service to destroy any records it holds about those inquiries; the quashing of a property warrant; financial compensation". Yeah, right. Look, there's a flying pig, oink-flap, oink-flap. My subsequent letter to Nick Brooks, Tribunal Secretary, dated 25 March 1999, said; Dear Mr Brooks, We spoke on the phone last week and you kindly sent a copy of the form, "Complaints about the Security Service". I have a few questions which I should like to ask you, before I undertake the task of making a formal complaint. As you know I made a complaint in February 1997, and in June of that year the tribunal made a bland and unsatisfactory statement that "no determination in your favour has been made on your complaint". During our phone conversation I expressed the view that the Tribunal was incapable of performing its functions and acts as a whitewashing body for the Security Service. My questions are as follows; (1) Has the Security Service Tribunal ever during its existence found in favour of a compaint against MI5? (2) Is the Tribunal able to disclose whether "no determination in your favour" is made because MI5 claims to have no inquiries on a subject, or whether it is made because MI5 admits to actions against a subject but claims justification? If disclosure is not possible for individual cases, then in 1997 for how many cases (out of what total) did MI5 claim justification? (3) Is the Tribunal able to investigate information such as British Airways passenger lists, given that these could conclusively prove MI5 involvement? Would the Tribunal be forced to rely on MI5 to carry out such investigations, or would it have some other means of investigating? It might look slightly ridiculous for the Tribunal to rely on MI5 to investigate their own misdeeds. When I made my previous complaint to the Tribunal in 1997 I gave very little information as to the nature of my complaint. This time I intend to give as complete information as possible; but before I do so, I would ask you to answer the questions above, to outline the "ground rules" for a Tribunal investigation and reporting of its results. Yours sincerely, Mr Brooks replied by sending me a photocopy of two pages from the 1997 Report of the Security Service Commissioner, as follows. The photocopied pages from the 1997 Report follow. In particular, the answers the report gives to my questions are; the Security Service Tribunal has NEVER found in favour of a complainant; see sections 29 and 31 of the scanned report. Nick Brooks has confirmed orally over the phone that he has no memory of the Tribunal ever finding in favour of a complainant. Secondly, the question of whether the Tribunal is able to disclose "no determination in your favour" is because MI5 claims to have no inquiries on a subject, or whether it's because MI5 admits to having inquiries but claims they are justified. The answer to this one is in section 24, which says the ambiguity is intentional; and the Tribunal will in no circumstances give an unambiguous answer of whether MI5 claims or disclaims inquiries on a subject. In section 27 of the report, SS Commissioner Lord Justice Stuart-Smith says the blanket denials "might lead some to speculate that members of the service are carrying out operations involving unlawful interference with property, such as the installation of eavesdropping equipment, without first obtaining a warrant from the Home Secretary." He goes on to try to deny this speculation. But we've heard from Peter Wright that this went on all the time in the 1960s. So why wouldn't it still be happening now? Of course it is. The Tribunal Secretary had avoided answering the question from my previous letter, of whether the Tribunal had any independent investigative capacity. So I asked him again. Dear Mr Brooks, Thank you for your letter dated 6 April enclosing an extract of the 1997 Report of the Security Service Commissioner. This answers two of the three questions asked in my letter of 25 March. The third question remains. In 1993 I travelled on a British Airways flight on which there also travelled four men, one of whom stared at me, laughed and said, "if he tries to run away we'll find him". I took this to mean that these were the men who had been pursuing me for some time in the UK. This leads me to ask again the last question in my previous letter; (3) Is the Tribunal able to investigate information such as British Airways passenger lists, given that these could conclusively prove MI5 involvement? Would the Tribunal be forced to rely on MI5 to carry out such investigations, or would it have some other means of investigating? It might look slightly ridiculous for the Tribunal to rely on MI5 to investigate their own misdeeds. I would very much hope that some means is available to the Tribunal and Commissioner to investigate possible MI5 malefaction, other than relying on MI5 themselves. When I receive an answer to this question from you, I will work to put together a more comprehensive and detailed complaint for the Tribunal's consideration. Yours sincerely, Brooks' reply was; Brooks doesn't want to give a direct reply to the question, since that would place him in a bad light. So he gives an indirect answer; the tribunal, he avoids saying, has no investigative capacity; there is no mention even of any investigative capacity provided by MI5 themselves; nobody can investigate anything, all the Tribunal can do is ask MI5, and they, in their "Alice in Wonderland" world, can redefine the truth as it pleases them, and dissemble, and lie. Before deciding not to put another formal complaint before the Tribunal, I asked Robin Ramsay, editor of Lobster magazine, what he thought of the idea of making a complaint to the Tribunal. He replied; RESPONSE Yes it is a waste of time. They will do nothing. In a further email he elaborated; As for quoting me on the Security Service Tribunal - if you think my comments would mean anything, feel free. The problem people have is this: they almost have to go through the motions of going to the Tribunal for if they don't they will always be asked, 'Why didn't you go the proper authorities?' (This is one of the chief functions of 'the proper authorities'.) Robin Ramsay So the sum of the various parts of this story is; DON'T GO TO THE TRIBUNAL. If you do, then MI5 will open a file on you (if you don't have one already). Don't do as I did, do as I say. If you feel a really deep-seated urge to complain, do so first under an invented name, which will make you understand just how useless the Tribunal is, how little information they provide, and how unpleasant it is to know that you have given MI5 a reason to officially open a file on you in their Registry. 695 Tag: Exchange Server Build Number and Mailbox Store issues Tag: 178942

    - MI5 Persecution: Eye Say, and Lord Gnome Answers Eye Say, and Lord Gnome Answers My interactions with Private Eye started in May 1995, shortly after I'd started bleating on usenet. I tried to get the Eye interested in my case, as I thought they more than anyone have their finger on the pulse, and would surely already know something about my case. In my first email to them, entitled "pas de bouteille?" (wot no bottle?), I asked if they had the nerve to publish what was known to many thousands of people. Their email flunky answered; Date: Thu, 11 May 95 13:40 BST-1 From: strobes@cix.compulink.co.uk (Private Eye) Subject: Re: pas de bouteille? In-Reply-To: <199505102232.SAA19988@freenet.carleton.ca> Bottle? Dunno really - but I've passed your mail on to the Ed for his consideration. Steve Mann (strobes) ========================================================== Date: Mon, 15 May 95 12:51 BST-1 From: strobes@cix.compulink.co.uk (Private Eye) Subject: Re: hello again In-Reply-To: <199505122236.SAA02574@freenet.carleton.ca> Hello yourself... Thanks for the email. Unfortunately, I can't say whether or not the Eye will do anything with this... I'm only the messenger. As the only computer-literate peron in the Gnome organisation, I get to read all the email and then pass it on to the Editor. Sorry -- not very helpful, I know. Steve Mann (strobes) The following year I gave PE another little prod, which yielded the following; Date: Tue, 13 Feb 96 11:38 GMT From: strobes@cix.compulink.co.uk (Private Eye Magazine) Subject: Re: Previous communication In-Reply-To: <199602102320.SAA26182@[snip]> Sorry not to reply sooner... we've been swamped with email and I have very little time to answer it. However, the editor sees all the email received here and I'm afraid he hasn't expressed an interest in your story so I can only assume that he feels it isn't for us. Sorry. strobes Given that I couldn't provide the evidence to persuade the Eye of the credibility of my claims, I did the next best thing, which was to take out classified adverts in their "Eye Say" and "Eye Tech" columns. My motivation for doing so is obvious; the Eye is read both by many thousands of ordinary folk, but also makes its way into the homes and consciousness of the UK's political and media elite. It is also a known favourite with "Five". What better way of taking the fight to the enemy? The first small ad appeared on 10 Jan 1997 in issue 915 in "Eye Say". It ran in that column on 24/1/97 and 7/2/97. On 21/2/97 it ran in "Eye Tech", and on 7/3/97 and 21/3/97 again in "Eye Say". I then changed the ad's wording to read "BBC Newsreaders Conspiracy", and the new wording ran in "Eye Say" from 4/4/97 issue 921, 18/4/97 to 2/5/97. The word "xenophobic" in the first advert had been intended to convey the sense of exclusion through the bigotry of my enemies, both on the basis of race and mental condition, but it seemed a bit too non-specific. "BBC Newscasters Conspiracy" was a little more immediate, although readers had to actually wade through the website to find out what it was that the newscasters were conspiring to do. My next effort tried to spice up the text. "MI5/BBC Conspiracy" ran for six issues in "Eye Say", from 5/9/97 issue 931 until 31/10/97. I suppose there is something a little sad about somebody who knows he has mental illness, placing adverts about a conspiracy in which MI5's watchers enable BBC newscasters to personally and directly communicate with him while reading the news. It is pretty sad, but unfortunately it is also true, both in the objective reality we all inhabit, as well as in my own mind. There followed a hiatus of about a year until I resumed advertising on 2 October 1998. I paid over £200 for six months advertising of the new improved text "MI5 Persecution, BBC Newscasters Spying on my Home". This text ran from issue 960 until issue 972 (19 March 1999) in "Eye Say". Private Eye's editor Ian Hislop denies knowing anything about my case, as the following email illustrates. Date: Tue, 3 Nov 1998 14:10 +0000 (GMT Standard Time) From: strobes@private-eye.co.uk (Private Eye) Subject: Re: PLEASE ANSWER - THANK YOU CC: strobes@private-eye.co.uk Reply-To: strobes@private-eye.co.uk Sorry to take so long to answer. As soon as the editor returned from holiday Steve went away. Steve is still away and so I am answering your letter. I have asked the editor and he knows nothing about any conspiracy between M15 and the BBC. Hope this helps.

    - MI5 Persecution: Counter-surveillance sweep by Nationwide Investigations Group Counter-surveillance sweep by Nationwide Investigations Group In July 1994 the private detective agency Nationwide Investigations Group conducted an electronic counter-surveillance sweep of my parents' home in London. They checked for radio transmitter devices, and tested the telephone line for attached bugs. They found nothing. I am afraid that I was unsurprised at their not finding any evidence of covert surveillance. It had been made very clear to me, particularly during 1990-92, that audio, and almost certainly video, surveillance of my parents' home was taking place. But this would not have been made quite so obvious unless the persecutors were confident of their apparatus being undetectable using the technology the police, or a private agency like Nationwide, would be using. I don't know very much about the surveillance technology that has been used against me, but I understand that devices can be built which switch off on receiving a coded command, and may switch on again after a counter- surveillance sweep has completed; that devices may rapidly alter the frequency of transmission, "frequency-hopping" devices which presumably cannot be detected in a sequential scan of the sort employed by Nationwide; and of course "probe" microphones can be inserted "through-the-wall", although I hesitate to believe our neighbours would permit this. We paid Nationwide £411.25 (including VAT) for the surveillance sweep, which took them about an hour and a half to complete, using a "Professional 5000 multi-scanner, CCL UHF scanner and Guideline telephone tap detector." As I said above, I don't know very much about these things, so I can't comment on the capabilities or otherwise of this equipment. But clearly the "watchers" are using technology which in 1994 was beyond the detection capabilities of a good private detective agency. 695 Tag: Exchange Server Build Number and Mailbox Store issues Tag: 178940

    - Security Groups we have a sbs 2000 machine that is the Domain Controller(all the 5 FSMO roles actually) in our network. I was testing out Exchange Server 2007 which seemed to require the Windows 2000 mode (and not Mixed Mode, which supports Pre-Windows 2000). I changed that from Mixed Mode to Windows 2000 mode. Now the permissions for all the Security Groups seem to be messed up. Is there anyway I can change the mode of all the security groups to Windows 2000 instead of mixed mode. thank you.

    - SBS2K3 - Bad sectors on RAID 1 Our server has three disks - one for the system and two disks setup as RAID 1 array for our data. We have 652 bad sectors now being reported for the data drive in Windows. CHKDSK has been run with the /R switch, so I think the bad sectors are now identified and marked as 'do not use'. Can we / should we ignore this now, and just monitor that the bad sector count doesn't increase? The RAID 1 is via Dell hardware, so I am unsure how to tell which disk is the faulty one (or in RAID 1 are the bad sectors on both?!). I guess I can physically remove one disk and run CHKDSK against them in turn, but in doing this will I destroy the integrity of the RAID 1? Thanks for any suggestions.

    - Try to free up space on Exchange Server 2000 I have a 35 gig hard drive and I have reached the max on it. I have been deleting emails hoping it would free up space. I am noticing on the server that the free space is still getting smaller. What do I need to do to free up the space. Is the deleted emails still hanging around somewhere? I have heard that doing the backup program in the accessories can free up some of the files in exchange. I have already gotten rid of all the other files that I can. My only option is to delete more emails. I would think this would work because my inboxs are slammed with huge attachments. Please help. We need this to work by tonight. Thanks everyone.

    - SBS2003, Outlook 2003, POP3 from client PC Hi all, Current situation: We have SBS 2000 with three clients. On these clients we (and by that I mean our boss, the one who pays us) can get mail though Exchange and we can also send and receive mail direct through POP3. New situation We have just installed a new server with SBS2003 and wanted to go live tomorrow. At the moment this isn't looking likely. Our mail box on Exchange is fine, but we cannot send or receive anything through POP3 on the client machines. I've read lots today and know that many of you hate the idea of using POP3, but it's not my choice, it's the boss'. As far as I'm aware, we didn't do anything special on the SBS 2000 setup to get POP3 mail working, it just did (after running the ICW). Any ideas? At the moment I think I'll be working althrough the night :-( By the way, we're not techies. Our SBS knowledge is gleaned from the net and two books by Russel et al, and Neale et al. HELP!

We now have some messages which cause Outlook to 'hang' on Client machines. - I think the messages do not exist, but some sort of header/pointer does. With a preview pane, if you highlight one of these messages, you do NOT get a preview of the message, and Outlook locks up. I have sat at a machine and left it for 15 minutes to see if it finds the message. Only way out is Ctrl-Alt-Del. Will eseutil /p be enough to fix this? Or, will I need to investigate isinteg?

Now with the recent surge in spam our legitimate emails are getting bounced.Our ISP supplier is a monopoly so they could not care less about his problem. My question is: could forwarding our email to an SMTP service solve the problem? I know that there is going to be a cost, but something is better that nothing.

I was out sick for the two days, plus the weekend, so I had over 400 messages. It took from 9:30 to 1:30 to get them. I use a program to get only the message headers. It would get 30-40 messages, and then time out. My boss uses Outlook and it takes forever to download just a little mail. Additionally, for her, the server is keeping the message, not deleting it as her client is configured. I am at my wits end, and do not know where to go from here.

    - Canon IR3300i and SBS Well, this one has me stumped. I have a canon ir3300 connected to a small business server. It prints well, no problems. The issue is with the scanning. When I set up the one-touch button for the scanning project, it gives me the chance to choose between sbs or ftp. Choosing sbs, I am allowed on the printer to scan the network. When I scan the network, I can see the sbs server as well as all the workstations on the network. I can browse directly to any workstation shares, and sucessfully scan to it. However, when I try to browse the sbs server, it prompts me for authentication. When I enter the admin user name and password, it comes back with an error that the user name and password are invalid and it cannot connect. Using the same user name and password, I can connect directly to the server. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    - XP Clients with SBS2000 I've upgraded 4 of our users to XP pro, and somehow I keep making a mess of configuring the client PC. This is the procedure I just followed for another new (out of the box Dell) PC: At the SBS box add a new user, JohnDoe and a new computer JohnD. At the client box first start up, during XP installation/configuration give the username, JohnDoe, and the computer name, JohnD. The client PC then starts up as local user, JohnDoe. I then follow KB316418 to join the XP client to the SBS domain, for example MYDOMAIN. Re-boot the client PC, this time logging on as JohnDoe on MYDOMAIN. Again follow KB316418 to install the firewall client. At this time I get Error 1925 - insufficient priviledges. In the client PC User Accounts I note that user JohnDoe is only a member of the JohnD domain, so I create another user JohnDoe, member of MYDOMAIN, standard user group. Re-boot the PC and log on again as JohnDoe. Still have error 1925 when I try to install the FW client. Log off JohnDoe and log on as Administrator on JohnD. This time the FW client installs OK. Log off Administrator and log on as JohnDoe on MYDOMAIN. Internet access is forbidden. In the client PC User Accounts I change JohnDoe to Administrators group. Internet access is now possible. So I get there in the end, but it is all a bit laborious, and I'm not happy about making my user a local Administrator - or is that a necessary step? Question - is there a slicker method of arriving where I want to be? Regards Tag: Exchange Server Build Number and Mailbox Store issues Tag: 178812

    - conflicts with WAP on LAN Our network is setup as follows: DSL modem --> Sonicwall Firewall/Router --> 24-port 10/100/1000Base-T Switch --> [cat5 to each workstation] Currently we are trying to install a WAP in one of our offices to provide our on site programmer with the ability to send/receive data from a Dell Axim PDA to any of our workstations. The WAP is a Linksys WRT54G which happens to double as a 4-port switch. Our mission is to replace the 4-port hub we currently have in that office with this WAP/switch. As of right now the WAP/switch is hooked up to a Cat5 wall outlet properly and my laptop, the programmer's laptop, and the PDA can all ping the WAP. All wireless devices can also ping the other two workstations hard wired into the ports on the switch. So basically, any and all devices contained in that specific office can talk to each other fine. Where the problem lies is in the fact that we cannot connect to any of the workstations outside of that office.

    - SBS 2000 Licenses Hello, How many CALs does SBS 2000 come with by default? I have the SBS 2000 Installation CDs and also a Floppy Disk with 5 Client Add Pack. Does the CDs include 5 when you install it? Does this mean that with the CDs and diskette I have 10 CALs? Thanks Tag: Exchange Server Build Number and Mailbox Store issues Tag: 178793

    - Restore a user profile We have managed to lose a user profile (desktop settings, roaming profile etc). We can recreate it but, my first question is, can we restore it? We've been making backups of our server for ages. Now, when we need to restore this data we don't know where to find it! My second question is, can anyone tell me where this info is kept on the server? -- - Regards Boris Merryweather Tag: Exchange Server Build Number and Mailbox Store issues Tag: 178783

    - Reinstalling SQL 2000 from SBS 2003 - HELP I am trying to reinstall SQL 2000 on a SBS 2003 Premium system. I do not want to have to reinstall the entire system, just SQL 2000. I was having problems with one of the databases in SQL and thought I would start over with a new intsallation. I know with SBS 2000 you could simply find the installation directory on the disk, but I can't seem to find it with SBS 2003. Can anyone tell me how I can do this install without reinstalling the entire SBS 2003 system? Thanks! Tag: Exchange Server Build Number and Mailbox Store issues Tag: 178781

    - Moving INstallation I have just purchased SBS 2003 and am looking to install in the next couple of days. In the mean time, I have an extra Dell PowerEdge server that I want to install my current SBS 2000 on so I will have as little downtime as possible. I will install SBS 2003 on my new server as the other works for now. Problem is I am not allowed to add my cals without calling Microsoft and getting a password. I am doing exactly what the technical support file on the CAL disk says to do. I just called Microsoft and the lady I taked to says I have to pay for the technical support. All I need is the password for the reinstall of the CAL's. I have a 20 CAL disk and a 5 CAL disk. Am I calling the wrong group or can I do it online. Any help would be great.

My Mailbox store keeps unmounting with ESE 445 error stating that the
database has reached maximum size. I added the registry key to temporarily
expand the store, had users clean up about 6GB of emails, ran online defrag,
ran backup of exchange, ran eseutil with t and p option to defrag the
database and my store still dismounts with the ESE 445 error. The drive that
my store is on only has about 10GB of free space but my temp DB location has
at least 100GB. Why isn't my store recovering the free space? I have been
working on this issue for about 2 days straight now with 2 hrs sleep.

I have also recently noticed that my exchange server build number is 6249.4
but I have all of the Post SP3 service packs installed.

What's your 'deleted items retention' time? The 6GB of recent deletes wil
not be removed from the database until the retention time expires.
