Please help! New SBS Install missing RDC
All Discussion Groups,
Weird situation. I just noticed that I'm missing Remote Desktop Connection
in the Communications folder of Assessories. Microsoft doesn't appear to
have the download. Does anyone know where RDC resides in the setup program?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DvPaGQEskSKM
Chorus:
Bill Gates got run over by his software
Walking home from our house Christmas eve.
You can say there's no such thing as Linux,
But as for me and Ballmer, we believe.
Verse 1:
He'd been drinking too much eggnog,
And we begged him not to go.
But then he forgot his thumbdrive, and he
Staggered out the door into the snow.
When we found him Christmas morning,
At the scene of the attack,
He had WGA stamped on his forehead,
And product keys recorded on his back.
{Chorus}
Bill Gates got run over by his software
Walking home from our house Christmas eve.
You can say there's no such thing as Linux,
But as for me and Ballmer, we believe.
Verse 2:
Now we're all so proud of Ballmer,
He's been taking this so well.
We saw him in there with his X-Box,
Drinking Kool-aid and
chumming with Linus Torvalds.
It's not Christmas without Bill Gates,
All the family's dressed in black
And we just can't help but wonder:
Should we open up his Linux gift box,
Or send it back?
{Chorus}
Bill Gates got run over by his software
Walking home from our house Christmas eve.
You can say there's no such thing as Linux,
But as for me and Ballmer, we believe.
Verse 3:
Now Window's Vista's on the table
And the Office beta is complete
All we need now is new hardware
To get it up and running will be a feat.
I've warned all my friends and neighbors
Better watch out for your house,
They should never give a license
To a man who talks with penguins
and plays with a mouse
{Chorus}
Bill Gates got run over by his software
Walking home from our house Christmas eve.
You can say there's no such thing as Linux,
But as for me and Ballmer, we believe.

Free instant zero configuration VPN software
The product allows users to create virtual private networks over the
internet. Once the network is created, users can access each others
machines just as if they were on the same local area network. User can
share folders and file, share printers, and much more. In addition, the
Leaf 2006 application includes plugins that capture LAN traffic off one
member's network and route it to the other member's network. These
plugins allow devices such as XBoxs, windows media centers and TiVo, on
one member's network to be shared across the Leaf network. This means
users can play XBox head-to-head, digital media receives can play and
view media from other member's media centers, one TiVO can retrieve
movies from another members TiVO, all across the Internet. The Leaf
2006 application includes a peer-to-peer chat client and a built in
firewall for the Leaf network interface for your protection.

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!

OT: Trend Micro in the UK
I am being messed about by Network Associates and their supplier in my

I understand Trend Micro comes highly recommended by users in this group.
I assume the product I'm looking for is Client/Server/Messaging Security for
SMB. We have just 7 clients.
However, last time I attempted to get any information at all about the
product here in the UK I was met with total indifference from the supplied
list of 'preferred partners'.
So can anybody from the UK please recommend a company I can contact.

SBS2k - bad msgs in Exchange
All,
You helped me get out of a hole a while back with Exchange >16GB
database.
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?

smart host
Hi there
We have an sbs 2000 with exchange and a fixed IP over an ADSL line. Our
problem is that the our IP address is included in a block of address that is
listed as a spam source. 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. By the way we are thinking about getting one of those antispam
tools too!!! Also do you know somebody who can provide the service.
If you have any pointer please feel free to post them.

Exchange Crashes on Help
I'm in the process of setting up SBS2003. I installed SBS2003 and applied
all the udpates, including the latests service packs to both SBS2003 and
Exchange. Everything seems to be working until I go the Exchange System
Manager and pull up any Help files.
Whenever any help within Exchange is envoked, Exchange System Manager just
crashes and I receive the following error:
"Microsoft Intelligent Message Filter has encountered a problem and needs to
close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
Error siganture is:
AppName: contentfilter.dll AppVer: 6.5.7638.1 AppStamp: 430e739c
ModName: hhctrl.ocx ModVer: 5.2.3790.2744 ModStamp: 44b3a49e
fDebug: 0 Offset: 00013368
Any suggestions as to the cause and fix for this? SBS2003 has SP1
installed. I tried re-installing SP2 for Exchange but nothing changed. My
last option seems to be to uninstall Exchange and reinstall from scratch, but
I think that will also force me to uninstall SP1 for SBS2003 since it
requires Exchange SP. Tag: Re: Frohe Weihnachten Tag: 178842

Slow response in SBS Admin Console
In the tree, opening stuff like Computer Management (local) is immediate,
but other stuff, like First Organisation (Exchange) and Active Directory
Users and Computers takes around 30seconds each time. Similarly, looking at

Exchange timing out
We have Small Business Server 2000 and it has been timing out
repeatedly in the last two months when users try to retrieve mail.
There are only two users. 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. Our admin
person is busy until January - any help here perhaps? If someone can
give me a clue I will be most grateful.

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?

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?

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.
Any suggestions?

SMTP connector unavailable
I have a client running SBS 2000 with a dynamic IP address. I have
repeatedly tried to get this converted to static but no one will listen to
me. Naturally, outbound e-mail is a problem. I tried using a smarthost for
all the outbound e-mail, but the outbound mail queue would get stuck until I
switched it back to DNS. But when I use DNS, then AOL and others get cranky
because it's a dynamic IP. Finally, I set up a second SMTP connector just
for AOL and its ilk, leaving everything else on DNS. I had about one or two
dozen domains on the smarthost. This seemed to work for a long time, but
yesterday the client called complaining that the e-mail routed through the
smarthost was not making it out. When we look at the status of the smarthost
SMTP connector, it shows "unavailable." Right-clicking on it and starting it
releases the mail, but shortly afterward the connector goes down again. The
smarthost (a cable ISP) pings okay, and I was able to set up Outlook Express
on the server with an account at the ISP, which worked fine. I need at a
minimum that the smarthost connector resets itself it it goes down so that
the mail eventually goes out. Where do I go from here? Tag: Re: Frohe Weihnachten Tag: 178749
Connector for POP3 Mailboxes service terminated unexpectedly
We're running SBS2000 with all of the latest service packs and updates
available from the Microsoft Update site. The other day our server logged the
following event The Microsoft Connector for POP3 Mailboxes service terminated
unexpectedly. Event ID 7031. Whenever the service is restarted, it stops
again about 7 minutes later. No other services are affected and no other
events are logged - I've turned up the POP3 logging to maximum. Our server is
unable to run the POP3 service long enough to download all of our mail - so
we don't get any - its all still in our ISPs mailbox.
I've scanned for viruses and nothing found.
Any help with fixing this would be greatly appreciated. Tag: Re: Frohe Weihnachten Tag: 178745
Priv1.edb & stm moving
I have SBS 2000 and need to move these Priv1 files to another drive.
If I use Echange manager and browse to new location does it automatically
dismount and move the databases like it does when you move the logs or do you
have to manually move them?
Thanks

SBS 2000 Computer Name
When the SBS 2000 Server was originally setup, the PC's were joined to
MYCOMPANY.COM ... this was used only for local Exchange Address books; there
was no actual MYCOMPANY.COM. Now though there is a Web Site and we are
experiencing multiple (DNS?) problems (slow logins, intermittent internet,
etc.). Is this because of the naming convention, or (I suspect) malware?
The only way to get the Internet to work properly is to input the ISP DNS
address in the DNS properties instead of the SBS NIC, and the SBS keeps
losing its shares. Thx in advance Tag: Re: Frohe Weihnachten Tag: 178740
VPN using PIX 501
Hi
I'm trying to set up a VPN connection using a PIX 501E Firewall and Cisco
VPN client.
The server has a router two NICs static IP addresses and ISA.
The external NIC address is 10.0.0.2 and the internal NIC is 192,168.16.2.
The PIX 501 issue the VPN Client with an IP address of 192.168.18.n
The client creates the VPN successfully, but connecting to the Exchange
server is not consistent, and I cannot acess any shares on the server.
I'm not sure if I need to configure anything on RRAS

domains.

Now here's the kicker.... My ISP thought there was some virus comgin from
our server last weekend...so I scanned the server with Symantec Corp Edition
AV. I can not tell you if email had stopped before or after that scan...but
when I was researching the SMTP problem I found out what a bad idea that is
on a server that is running Exchange. File level scans on the M drive are
not good....apparently. So I looked at the default scan settings and the M
drive is in there...so it was scanned.
So I thought maybe the scan corrupted something so I did the reinstall of
IIS and Exchange. No change. So something could still be broke by that
scan?? Or SMTP could be blocked by ISA?? My ISP says they did not block
port 25 coming out (even though thety did that a long time ago when the
server was an open relay).
Any Ideas?

SBS2k post build SQL install
All,
Need to load SQL onto a running SBS2k Server.
Can I just run the install from CD2, or must I let CD1 autorun?
Have tried CD1, but chickened out in case it decided to install SBS
fresh over the top without giving me an 'add component' option.
Also, will it use the license strings that appear (greyed out, but
there) when CD1 autoruns. - I can't find any paper certificates /
strings onsite.

local policy does not allow you to log in interactively via TS
Hi, I have SBS2000 DC and when a any user beside administrators try to logion
via TS, they get this error message
"local policy does not allow you to log in interactively"
I made sure that the users group have access rights to loon locally from the
security ploy for the domain but still get the same error.
When I add any user to the administrators group, then they can logon with no
problem.
Any idea what I need to do to have users loon to the TS without having to be
in the administrators group?

On a network where WSUS was introduced this afternoon, a user has just
reported that they cannot enter anything in the username or password
fields at Ctrl-Alt-Del.
If they select shut down, there is the Install Updates option you get

Restarting the PC (without installing any updates) has returned the

Shared fax service fails to generates receipt
I have a problem with the SBS 2000 shared fax service. It has recently
stopped generating email receipts to exchnage recipients and produces the
following error in the event log:
The fax service has failed to generate a positive delivery receipt using SMTP.
The following error occurred: 0x80040211.
This error code indicates the cause of the error.
I belive this behaviour may have started on updating exchange with Update
Rollup for Exchange 2000 (KB836488) but removing this update does not resolve
the issue.
I am running SBS 2000 with the service pack 1.
Would appreciate any help.

DNS server assignment...
We have a Win2K small business server and a member win2K3 DC in our
environment acting as a backup DC.
All PC's in our LAN have been assigned the IP address of the SBS machine for
the "Preferred DNS server" and have been assigned the IP address of the
backup DC machine for the "Alternate DNS server" setting.
Recently I heard that the DNS addresses for all PC's should be an outside
machine - not an internal one. Now I am second guessing myself! Am I correct
in having all machines on the LAN being assigned our SBS machine as DNS
server or should I have an outside as secondary and leave the SBS as
primary? And, if I did this, how would PC's know what machine to get logon
credentials from etc... if the SBS machine goes down??? (that's why I have
the backup DC as the secondary DNS - and it works well)
What should I be doing?
Thanks, Brad Tag: Re: Frohe Weihnachten Tag: 178706
