    - ISA Server Issues I have an issue with the ISA Server. It appears that after installation of Service Packs or Hotfixes that the ISA Listeners on Port 80 and 443 were re-enabled. Also, I noticed that port 1720 (Microsoft Netmeeting) is open on my SBS Servers. There are no packet filters allowing this in. My understanding was that if there wasn't a packet filter then it would deny access! My concern is that what other ports are open by default on ISA server! Anyone else noticed these behaviors? Thanks, John Tag: Internet through VPN Tag: 145884

    - ISA Security Question If you uncheck the "Ask all unauthenitcated user for identification" on the incoming web request tab do you open the network up to anyone? This was a fix from MS so I do not get the prompts for passwords multiple times. Thanks. Peter V Tag: Internet through VPN Tag: 145881

    - Cisco PIX Firewall I recently added a Cisco Pix Firewall so we could use Cisco's secure 3DeS VPN Tunnels. The pix doesn't want to work with 2 nics in the SBS2000 Server. I reconfiged for using only 10.0.0.2 and disabled the second NIC. Now I'm getting NetLogon DNS Event 5774 Errors... Anyone know where to start to make all of the necessary changes from TWO NICS down to ONE NIC??? -Dennis Tag: Internet through VPN Tag: 145880

    - removing router I have sbs2k running just fine, I was using a linksys router BEFSR41 router...and life was good. 2 stable years into this solution, users started having internet connection problems, intermediately Internet connection would drop, It seemed like router was the device causing this, I replaced the unit with a newer version of the same router (v3), every thing worked just fine with the exception of the VPN in to the box, After calling Linksys support there seems to be an issue with this newer version V3 unit...as not be "stable for VPN" go figure newer version isn't as stable. So in hopes of getting VPN back I am considering hooking the cable modem directly to the external nic, I do not want to re-run ICW, and I am lost after trying to hard code the IP address/ sub net, and gateway from the router (dynamically received from the ISP to the router) on to the external nic.

    - XP pro client cant see active directory I have 2003SBS PDC w/xp pro clients and NONE of my clients (although they seem to authenticate just fine) can browse active directory objects or even see active directory on the server. I get permission denied errors connecting to server or client shares. I used the network id wizard to join the domain and my users are all copies of the admin account. I know I'm doing something silly that can be easily fixed but I can't figure it out. I have changed the NICs and Switches thinking its hardware but to no avail. I have one nic in the server and Terminal Services loaded. DNS-wise I have the server pointing to itself and the clients pointing only to the server. Tag: Internet through VPN Tag: 145875

    - Auto install Client apps when joining a computer to SBS 2003 I am setting up SBS 2003 so that when I join computers to the SBS, Office XP and other software are installed automatically. I have added the software to the clientapps directory and all users have read/write access. It works great, however my problem is this. I want a complete install without user interface, but I cannot figure out in what file to place the product key so that this screen does not appear during the setup. Can any one help?

    - Helth Monitor alert Hi all, Getting Health Monitor Alert - System Processor Use: Warning condition WMI status:0. It's because the processor queue is set to alert if the length is >2. Do I need to worry about this or change the queue length? The Server should be more than powerful enough - Dell dimension 8200 with a Pentium 4, 1.8GHz CPU & 1.5 Gb RAM. Another problem which is baffling me are event id 1001, 1008 - source IISInfoCtrs & Perflib respectively. I've checked them on the Kb & it's something to do with the performance counters, which I've never been into. These errors have occurred after event id 2003, & following Kb 267831. Has anyone come across this & give advice? I don't want to dig the hole deeper. TIA, Gary Tag: Internet through VPN Tag: 145871

    - Help! Changing out Computers We are running SBS2000, 20 user. We are replacing 5 older computers with new systems. We will be installing the new computers on the network with the old ones still on the network to make the transition easier for the users. The computers will have different names than the older ones. Will there be an issue with this plan? Thank you for your help in advance! Candace Sparks Tag: Internet through VPN Tag: 145867

    - VPN I have configured my Cisco 837 Router to accept VPN using Cisco VPN Client. I have a Network with a SBS2K server. When I connect from home (Windows ME machine) using my Network logon and password I can ping devices on my network, I can even search for devices but when I try and connect to them, it says must supply password, 'Resource:\\COMPUTERNAME\1PC$, Password: ' What do I need to do so I can browse the network properly (ie as if I was in the office).

We have a problem with our server & I am not in the office can I get access to the server admin console? The problem we had was then a user tried to open folders on the server a message popped up saying "their are no available logons at this time" We have rebooted the server and when the users started their pc's it took about 10 mins for the pc to load personal settings & when they had loaded up they are crashing when using many different file types? -- Regards Simon Hardstaff --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

When I push the connect button, the system seems to not work (task manager reports program not responding for many minutes).

    - SMTP Queues SBS 2K We have a small network (25 users) all using win2k & a SBS 2k server, this connects to the outside world via a linux firewall, if the firewall (or the ADSL line) goes down any mail sent during this time ends up in the destination unreachable queue, understandable, however all subsequent outgoing mail ends up there also, & the only way to move them is to stop & restart the SMTP service, any ideas why this is happening? and more importantly how to stop from happening? & all firewall hardware & software has been replaced anyway, however we are able to produce this behaviour at will by simply rebooting the firewall or disconnecting the adsl line, as soon as there is no connection outgoing mails go into the destination unreachable queue & stay there and all mail sent after this even though the connection is back up go in there as well, we can clear them (usually) by stopping & starting SMTP service but this shouldn't happen? Any & all suggestions gratefully recieved, I don't have all that much hair left! __________________________________________________________________ Mike ICQ#: 122232506 Current ICQ status: + More ways to contact me __________________________________________________________________ The wise man learns more from his enemies than a fool does from his friends. - Chinese Proverb Tag: Internet through VPN Tag: 145857

    - SBS remote office > Exchange head office...? Hi all, Theoretical set-up - looking for advice on feasibility and/or potential problems [indeed, if this is workable!] Remote Office: 6 users Currently running bog-standard W2K Server Outlook clients connecting directly to individual POP3 mailboxes at ISP - NO internal mail whatsoever Broadband connection via Broadband Router on LAN - 512k ADSL Head Office: W2K Server Exchange2K Server Cisco 1700 Router Cisco PIX 515E Firewall Mailsweeper Websweeper McAffee EPolicy Orchestrator McAffee Virusscan Broadband is 2Mb SDSL Customer is looking to have the Remote Office link with the Head Office in the following way: 1] ALL email either incoming or outgoing to go via Head Office - they [at present] are looking for all internal mail within the Remote Office to also pass via Head Office, but I'm dubious as to whether this is the most efficient method of achieving things for them 2] 'Constant' VPN access during working hours to allow file/document sharing between sites We've [thus far] told the customer that they've got the following basic options: 1] Set-up the constant VPN connection between the offices either server-server or router-router and configure all the Outlook clients at the Remote Office as offline clients of the Head Office Exchange Server - downside is that all the internal mails are sent to the Head Office then back to the Remote Office which is pretty bandwidth inefficient. 2] Go SBS at the Remote Office - this will provide firewalling at the Remote Office [at present its just the NAT on the Router!], internal mail at the Remote Office stays within the Remote Office while external email can be forwarded to a Smart Host of the client's Head Office Exchange Server and incoming mail can be downloaded from the Head Office Exchange Server via POP3 [or SMTP?] Reasoning for SBS: 1] If the VPN link to Head Office goes down, the client in the Remote Office still has internal mail and we could [if the outage were a long one] configure them to send outgoing emails directly out via DNS. They'd get ISA to protect their network [and adding a 2nd NIC] in order to provide FAR more security than relying on the existing router's NAT. Basically to provide a degree of fault-tolerance in addition to ease of remote administration and increased security. Reasoning for non-SBS [more from customer's perspective than ours]: 1] Cheaper - perhaps slightly tighter integration with their Head Office existing set-up Notes: 1] Client does NOT wish to go W2K3 at this stage - therefore it would need to be SBS2K if we went down that route Anyone got any pointers/advice/potential pitfalls?

I have a problem when I go to Start>Programs>Admin Tools>Routing and Remote Access and Enable RRAS for VPN users to clients through our server. When I enable the service, I get pop-up warnings saying that DHCP will assign IP addresses to any clients. Furthermore, as soon as the RRAS service is enabled, a few clients are experiencing problems browsing the web - as if the RRAS blocks access to the web. On clients that have this problem, the ISA firewall client can update to the SBS, but cannot browse the web although their browser is set to look at the Proxy server (ISA on SBS). Please can someone help me on this. The SBS has two NICs - LAN and WAN. The LAN IP is 192.168.16.2 and the WAN IP address is 172.16.1.2 (as it goes through a Firewall that NATs the IP). The WAN card is hardcoded with the IP, even though the firewall runs DHCP. The SBS is fully patched via Windows Update and Service Packed for SBS SP 1a. skc Tag: Internet through VPN Tag: 145832

    - SBS SSL Issues Hello all, I am trying to connect to a secure web site, that is using a unnormal port address of 19638, I am using a SBS server with ISA firewall, and I know that I need to add this port to the exsisting range of ports that my server hold. But I have no idea how to do it, I have tried the SDK for SBS and that does not help, tried all meta sites but still no luck. Can anybody help ? Thanks Mike Tag: Internet through VPN Tag: 145831

    - Help! Help! Cannot add CALs: Message: Your Server is not running Microsoft Small Business Server Hi, Help needed urgently! Our new SBS-2000 server is nearly installed and is going in "use" tomorrow. Today, I wanted to add additional client access licenses. I have a SBS-2000 client add pack for 20 clients. When I run setup.exe from the diskette, I get the following error message: "Your computer is not running Microsoft Small Business Server. You can only add licenses to a computer running Microsoft Small Business Server" But I definitevely have SBS-2000. I also detected another strange thing: For some reasons I do not have the "Business Server Administration Console", it simply does not exist on my server!!!. Reading some newsgroups articles, I found out, that the console should be in the folder "C:\Program Files\Microsoft BackOffice\Managment...." But also: I do not have a folder named " C:\Program FilesMicrosoft BackOffice"!! Reading the Knowledge Base article KB234929, I tried to apply the registry patch to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Small Business\Version. The key was empty, so i changed it to Value = 5.0 (5.0 for SBS-2000). After that, I got another error message when I tried to run setup.exe with the following text "You can not add more licenses becaus this would place your computer over the allowed maximum numbers of licences. The I ran setup.exe -v from the diskette which displayed the following infos: Use count: 0x0000000 Concurrent Limit: 0x00014 Previous Limit: 0x0005 Current Limit: 0x000a So, that's all I know for now. What's going wrong with my installation of SBS-2000? Are there any tips that could me? Any help is greatly appreciated ... Thanks a lot in advance ...

    - Publishing Outlook Web Access with ISA Server and Exchange on the same machine Does anyone know of a way of manually configuring ISA to publish outlook web access when the ISA server and exchange server are the same machine ??? the ICW (internet connection wizard) for SBS crashes. so we set up a destination set to include www.lfe.org.au/exchange*, www.lfe.org.au/exchweb* and www.lfe.org.au/public* then set up a web publishing rule using this destination set to point to the internal IP address of our ISA server on port 81. our website (www.lfe.org.au) works doing this but OWA doesn't ?? any ideas please ? ....thanks....

    - ISA blocking access to web site SBS2000 has been setup and things had been working great for almost 2 years but we finally hit a snag. We are not able to get to the web site wwwdotmydomain.com (not the real domain). When we setup the server we were told that this office would host their own web site and email so we setup the domain as mydomain.com with a Dell PowerEdge2500 with many bells and whistles. Well the owner 2 years later transfered his web site and email to be hosted by his ISP. For email all I really had to do was configure Exchange with POP3. When I try to hit the web site now from the LAN it asks me for a Domain Username and Password. The LAN's domain is mydomain.com which may be a problem with the ISP hosting mydomain.com I can get to the web site using the IP Address, and I have modified the host table on the server and get a reply back with the correct address when trying to ping wwwdotmydomain.com but I can not get to wwwdotmydomain.com without it asking me for a domain username and password. Any help would be great, thank you. Tag: Internet through VPN Tag: 145813

    - SBS2k with 1 NIC and no ISA server Am migrating an SBS install from one box to another. This new box is on a network that has a 2Mg broadband feed supplied by an ISP that is firewalled by them. The broadband feed is presented to us as an ethernet cable with an IP that is on the internal range of our network. I have asked they map a fixed external IP to our new SBS2K box internal IP for email delivery, TS etc. The question: with this set up I cannot see how I would use ISA server (needs 2 NICS right?) and so am not going to install it. Instead I am going to have DHCP give out the broadband ethernet IP as the default gateway. I am pretty happy with the ISP's firewall technology (Nortel Shasta), but does this set up pose problems I have not foreseen? Will DNS set-up from default be fine or will it need work? Anyone with any info, pointers about SBS2K with 1 nic would be most welcome. thanks Gerry Tag: Internet through VPN Tag: 145781

    - DotNetNuke on SBS Bit OT, but I'm a gonna try here... How many folk are running a dotnetnuke site on SBS??? One at least - I am - using it to put all the documentation for the client online for them. I *really* like it. At the moment, it's internal access only. In the near future, I want to allow external access over SSL (we'll generate a certificate ourselves). I also have a problem on the client install of my dotnetnuke site, it seems to have gone all case sensitive on me (it's running fine on my own PC).

    - SBS2K => SBS3K - upgrade OK, read a bit here about migrations n' stuff - but for many of us, with smaller networks, it's not economic to migrate to a new server. I have a client, for eg. with a one year old server (nice PC, will last another couple of years I hope) - they don't wanna fork out another $20K for another server (it's just not necessary). The current one is doing the job nicely. So it'll be an upgrade, or fresh install of SBS3K. And yet!!! - I've read very little on this NG on *upgrading* experiences that folk have had - surely many of you have done this. I'd like to know of your experience, and what can go wrong. Are folk waiting for SBS3K SP1 or something? :) -- Duncan Tag: Internet through VPN Tag: 145772

I did notice 2 days ago that I received about 4500+ NDR's from email trying to go out but I don't know where they came from. This raised a flag as to the possibility of my server being used as a spam relay but that has not panned out, at least not that I can see.

    - VPN SBS2K to SBS2K3 We have a LAN in Denver with SBS2K, and a LAN in Phoenix with SBS2K3. Both have DSL with Static IP. Phoenix is setup totally stock, and Denver is behind a Cisco Pix501 firewall. We can VPN for Phx to Den easily, but are unable to VPN from Den to Phx. I've been able to VPN to Phx from every machine I've tried that isn't on the Denver LAN, so I suspect is has something to do with the the Cisco Firewall. Unfortunately I don't have much confidence in the company that set up our firewall. The guy who did the work is gone and the new guy seems lost. He suggested a tunnel which would require purchasing another Cisco 501 for Phx. Is a tunnel possible without the new piece of equipment? Is it possible to VPN from our Den LAN to our Phx LAN without a tunnel? I'll paste the log file to the end of the message.

    - SBS2K Backup/Reconfigure Drives/Restor We have an SBS2K installation where the C: drive is only 4gb and we are running out of space frequently. The system has 3 18gb SCSI drives configured as follows using Disk Manager. C: is 4gb mirrored on Disk0 & Disk1. D: is 14gb Raid-5 on Disk0, Disk1, and Disk2. Our original thought was that this would be a safe and well performing configuration. Eventually our Data storage requirement outgrew the 14gb D drive, so I installed 3 large IDE drives arranged in a Raid-5 where all the user and company files now reside. My hope is to complete a full backup of C: and D:, then reconfigure the drives using Recover Disks, and restore. Everything backedup on C: will resore to C: and the same on D:, Its just that they will different sizes and probably different raid configurations. My questions are: Will the restored windows system recognize the change and load properly? Will the shares be OK? Will SQL and Exchange server be OK? Do you have any suggestions for configuration?
