    - Song of the Week - Aug 15, 2004 Well, what a start to August ... first we survive the release of XP SP2, and then we had to deal with Hurricane Charley. And the push is on for SMB Nation in a month from now. Mix that in with issues with USB disk drives, Trend, and Malware, and things have been a proverbial whirlwind around here. Talking of rain and wind, I'm reminded of one my favorite songs, a James Taylor's classic hit --- Fire and Rain (aka Patches and Bugs) Just yesterday morning they let me know you went down, Sue Bradley, the QFE's they made put an end to you I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song I just can't remember who to e-mail it to I've seen patches and I've seen bugs I've seen service packs that I thought would never end I've seen lonely times when I couldn't reboot again But I always thought that I'd see you again Won't you look down upon me, Bill Gates You've got to help me make a stand You've just got to see me through another day My body's aching and the new server is not on-hand And I won't make it any other way I've seen patches and I've seen bugs I've seen service packs that I thought would never end I've seen lonely times when I could not reboot again But I always thought that I'd see you again Been searchin' my mind to an easy time, when Google was just a math term Lord knows when the cold wind blows it'll turn your satellite around Well, there's hours of time on the newsgroup line to talk about things to come Sharepoint dreams and ISA machines in pieces on the ground I've seen patches and I've seen bugs I've seen service packs that I thought would never end I've seen lonely times when I could not reboot again But I always thought that I'd see you again Thought I'd see you one more time again There's just a few things coming my way this time around, now Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you patches and bugs, now -- Kevin Weilbacher [SBS-MVP] "The days pass by so quickly now, the nights are seldom long" Tag: XP SP2 and LaCie Firewire Drives Tag: 163041

    - Help With ISDN and ISA server I have an SBS2000 server running ISA server, but am trying to setup a sarian ISDN modem to use to connect directly to the bank over an ISDN line and carry credit card transactions from the card swipes on our new EPOS system. The modem and ISDN line have been fully tested and work fine on other machines, but when it is connected to the server i cannot get to the webaccess config page and if i attempt to do a credit card transaction from one of the tills it comes back saying there is no carrier signal. The sarian is definately installed on the server as i can see it using hyperterminal and it is registered in the device manager so it must be ISA server that is blocking the traffic attempting to use the ISDN connection. Any Ideas? Tag: XP SP2 and LaCie Firewire Drives Tag: 163040

    - OT: Test your E-Mail AV Scanner I've always used the EICAR test virus (http://www.eicar.org/anti_virus_test_file.htm) to verify the operation of my virus scanning software, but somehow never became aware of the services that will e-mail you a test virus for the same purpose. Although there are several of these services, this one will send you a variety of formats (your choice), and doesn't require any signup or verification of your e-mail address. I've been testing ZIP file scanning, and that's one of the choices they offer. http://www.declude.com/Articles.asp?ID=99 If you're not familiar with the EICAR test virus, check it out at the first link.

    - << SMB Nation - THE get together for SBSers>> My apologies for the blantent promotion ... but this is one event that I know that if there is one training event to go to, pick this one. [and in full disclosure, as a speaker, Harry Brelsford is covering the hotel but I don't get any "speaker" fees and I'm taking personal vacation days for the days I'll be in Seattle] This conference is like my experiences with the MVP summit....more than the other geek conferences and events, there is a level of communication that occurs with SMBNation and MVP summits that are beyond any other. First off, we're totally all SBSers and we don't have to explain why we are as wacko as we are, we KNOW hands down the product works. And this year, even more so than last years conference, man are the attendees in for a treat. You do realize that per the schedule http://www.smbnation.com/schedule.htm you will be face to face with SBS dev team members/ marketing team members based in Redmond. Just like the MVP summits I've gone to, SMBnation, you arrive, you begin to talk SBS "geek" talk, and you don't stop talking SBS talk until the time you leave. Impromptu chats over dinner, "birds of a feather" type meetings, swapping tech stories, business ideas. Those of you guys and gals that attend your local user group meetings.... think of that and multiply that by 10. Those of you guys and gals that only meeting up via online, this is the opportunity to put faces with email addresses. Again my apologies for the promotion, I hope you will indulge me in this posting as in my personal opinion, will send you back to your businesses more recharged and pumped up than ever before. --------------------- P.S. I know us SBSers are cheap and in fact Anne Stanton and I are sharing a room because.. well it's flat out more fun for girl talk and just because. [Okay so in honesty it's because we really have fun catching up on the girl talk... it's fun to have a fellow girl geek around] So if anyone is on the borderline about going, consider sharing a room.

    - help with relay problems I have searched this site and smallbizserver.net - and used a few MS KB articles to resolve what appears to be a relay problem on my server. I recently set up OWA using SSL. All of a sudden I'm getting 100 non deliverable messages each day. I have followed the steps to turn off relaying on the server and yet I can still see IPs pop up in the Current Sessions section of the Default SMTP Virtual Server. I have turne on max logging and I don't see anyone logging in. I can't figure out how to stop this. I stopped the Default SMTP Virtual Server until I can figure it out - will this prevent relaying?

    - \\Access path not found etc messages Hi, This is a weird one. I have a small network consisting of desktop and laptop PC's attached to an SBS 2000 server. They all work fine i.e. log-on / off the network, can access everything they need on the server etc. However if I sit at the server and using explorer via My Network Places click on three of the PC's (2 x desktop and 1 x laptop) after a few minutes of watching the 'egg timer' I get a \\xxxxx path not found message for one desktop and the laptop or \\xxxx cannot find server message for the other desktop. By the way the same PC that gives the cannot find server message also tries to become the master browser from time to time thus logging an error in the event log?!! I can access all other PC's with no problem. Sitting at each of these PC's I can ping both the local loop back and fixed IP address with no problem using both the IP address and DNS names. Sitting at the server and trying to ping these three PC's using both the IP address and DNS name all I get is timeout errors. Does anyone have any ideas why this should be happening? By the way all desktops / laptops are Windows XP Pro and all machines are at the latest update levels. Regards, Ken. Tag: XP SP2 and LaCie Firewire Drives Tag: 163002

    - SIP VoIP Phone (Snom 200) Hi, I've installed a small network with a SBS 2003 Pro server as its domain controller etc. I'm trying to use SIP as my VoIP telephone system. I've succesfully set up a SIP telephone connection using a Software Telephone on one of the Window XP Pro desktops. However I can't get a dedicated SIP telephone (A SMON 200) to work. It gets its local IP address and gateway info etc corectly from the SBS2003 DHCP service but then can't get any Internet access. It can't even connect to a time server. How do I allow a network device like a VoIP dedicated telephone access to the Internet through the ISA firewall (which I assume is blocking the phones trafic)?

    - Disk space 'disappearing' Hello, The disk space on my system drive appears to be disappearing. According to the drive properties, I have a 4,055 MB partition, of which 3,653 MB is currently used, leaving 402MB free If I analyise the contents of the drive, the following space is reported as being used. Program File 1,475 MB WINNT 1,312 MB [root] 257 MB Inetpub 57 MB Documents & settings 41 MB Other folders (Total) 0.1 MB TOTAL 3,142 MB Does anyone know where the missing 511 MB is and how I can get it back? I have checked that the above figures for the space used by the folders are the actual disk space used (total of file sizes is 3,105 MB) and as far as I can tell, I have included all hidden/system folders/files. The only folder I have any doubt about, is 'System Volume Information' which I cannot seem to access in anyway. I am running SBS 2000 with SP4 on a Dell PowerEdge 2400 with a RAID 5 disk array.

    - Upgrade from one W2K SBS to one W2K3 Enterprise Server and one W2K3 Standard Server As of today, my company has one server running W2K SBS. We have bought a new server and are now going to upgrade to W2K3 Server. I was wondering if anybody has suggestion to do the following: * We want the new server to be the domain controller, with W2K3 Enterprise edition running on it. * We want to install W2K3 Standard Server on the old server, and install Exchange 2003 Enterprise Edition on this one as well. This server becomes a member of the new domain server which will be running on the new server. How would you guys out there approach this scenario? Hope you can be a little detailed here, so I don't get anything wrong. Thanks in advance!! Tag: XP SP2 and LaCie Firewire Drives Tag: 162979

    - Mail not appearing in outlook inbox I has just set up an SBS2k server with 3 clients so far (xp pro sp2) The following is happening on all the clients.... Messaging appears to be working fine except that whenever a message arrives for a user (be it internal or external) it doesnt appear in the user's outlook inbox until some interaction takes place with outlook. EG a user may have a number of messages waiting - when the user selects another outlook folder, say calendar, all the messages immediately appear in the inbox. Not sure if this is an outlook issue or an exchange server one. Can anyone throw any light on this? Thanks Stewart Tag: XP SP2 and LaCie Firewire Drives Tag: 162938

    - Workstation Question I have a problem with one on my workstations that I just setup. Fresh install xp with sp1. When I install the NIC and plug in the cable it pulls the address from DHCP. However, I cannot no matter what I do get the computer to ping the server. Things I have tried: 1. Reinstall nic and still pulls address but other than that nothing. 2. Install 2 totally dif nics, pulls addresses but still wont connect. 3. On every nic which I installed I also tried to just a direct internet line which also will not work. At first I though it was the nic but now I know it is not. The LAN is split into my workstation through a swtich so I know the connection works. This computer has had to internet access at all. Complete brand new install of windows XP SP1. Any ideas what I could try? Eddie Tag: XP SP2 and LaCie Firewire Drives Tag: 162935

    - Logon problem I'm having a strange problem at one site. I can add computers to the domain during setup. But when trying to logon to the domain, the computers first displays the greyed out logon box end then nothing but the standard blue background. The problem first occured when I had changed some registry values (as described in this NG) to make XP browsing faster. I immediately changed those settings back to their normal value. When I'd changed those values back the computers that hadn't been started up for the day could logon, but the ones that had been started directly in the morning had to logon locally and access the resources on the server from there. All this happened a few months ago, but I didn't do much to solve the problem then. I planned to reinstall the "faulty" computers at a convinient occassion. But when I added two new computers the other day, I got same problem. They are added to the domain, but can't logon to the domain. Now I have eight computers that can't logon to the domain and four who can. All computers running WinXP Pro SP1 with the latest patches. Anyone having any ideas where to start looking? I've been thinking about using packet sniffers, but I really don't know what to look for. Any help would be greatly appriciated.

    - SBS 2000 and adding a "Member Server" Ok .. I've seen the notes - read the FAQ's but am really lost.. :-( I have a single SBS 2000 server .. I need to add a Windows 2000 server to the domain as there will be an application installed on it to do e-mail to mobiles.. So - I need to install windows 2000 server and give it full rights to read / write / send for each user. I understand I can install windows 2000 server as a member server .. so I 1) Install Windows 2000 server (default options taken to install) 2) Install drivers for network card and the likes 3) Configure network card for a static IP, subnet, gateway - Pri DNS to be the SBS server, Sec DNS to be the new 2000 server. 4) Create a user on SBS that has full admin rights. 5) Reboot the windows 2000 server - then Start - Control Panel - system - network - join to the domain - enter new user username/ pass it joins OK - reboot. 6) what now ??? The SBS server needs logon rights to the 2000 server ? does it create them itself ? I've read about having to dcpromo it .. but it fails .. (but doesn't it have to be a member server BEFORE I dcpromo it? In AD on the SBS I have moved the computer (the windows 2000 server) to the Domain Controller section - Lots of questions I know ... I just really want to get this server to be a member server ! how's it meant to work step by step guide anywhere ? Looked on www.sbs2000.info but nothing of use there.. Looked through the Microsoft site and cannot find correct answers .. Any help appreciated.. (sound like such a newbie sorry! .. give me a Cisco router and I'd be well away!)

    - User web browsing issue, W2K client I thought I might post a solution (work around?) I found to a perlexing issue we had with web browsing: it may be no use to anyone but would have saved me hours! I had a single user who could not browse the web via IE6 on a W2K client machine (SBS "internal" web pages were correctly served). For any URL, the ISA server returned a 403 error "The ISA server denies the specified URL (12202)". Every other user was able to browse normally and the user with problems could browse from all XP clients we have on site. The Firewall client is installed and configured correctly on all machines. IE settings were correct as per SBS defaults (i.e. pointing at the SBS2000 ISA: http://ISASERVER:8080) There were no differences between this user's setup and that of all other users in terms of group memberships (local or Domain). Looking at the various ISA logs, any connection that this user tried to make from IE generated entries in the Firewall client log rather than the Web Proxy log entries that other users generated. An example log with authenticated, Rule 1 and Rule 2 fields on as well as the defaults (user name replaced): 10.0.0.50 *** IEXPLORE.EXE:3:5.0 Y 2004-08-12 09:06:10 ISASERVER - 207.46.245.92 80 15 - 3415 80 TCP Connect 20000 BackOffice Internet Access Protocol Rule - 21 84 This suggested that for whatever reason, IE was trying to connect via the Firewall service and not via WebProxy. After much playing with Firewall and IE proxy settings, the only solution I found was to clear all the local IE cache, history etc, clear the IE proxy settings, quit IE. Then reopen and set IE proxy setting to ISASERVER:8080, including setting the advanced proxy address field to ISASERVER:8080 (all protocols checked). Note that I had already tried reentering http://ISASERVER:8080 and this did not work. Firewall client remains enabled. Why this solved the problem I don't know (HKLU registry issue?), although I'd appreciate any suggestions on the underlying cause. Andy Sims Tag: XP SP2 and LaCie Firewire Drives Tag: 162923

    - VERY Useful SBS2000 info Been happy with our SBS2000 SP1 set up for years now finally got around to deleting the 600MB or so in the NT/Temp folder - sure there was some files that cound not be deleted as they were in use but I got rid of most of it. The server seems to be performing noticably faster now AND those PERFLIB errors that could come at any time have stopped - Over the years I knew exactly how to bring up Perflib hell - but no more !!!

    - Serious SBS issues Firstly, I know this isn't the SBS 2003 group, but I am under pressure big time here and don't have time to use other news servers at the moment. A customer has SBS2003 Premium. Running on a high spec IBM server. We rebooted because of backup problems and upon logging in, and the desktop coming up, I get the following message: mmc.exe - Unable to locate component (red X) This application has failed to start because MFC42u.dll was not found. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem. Because of this, I can't get into things like the event viewer. Other apps seem to be OK.

    - Spam Relay Problem - what else can I do? Please Help. Hi folks, I haven't had to deal with spam relays like this before and am really getting bombarded. Here is the scoop: SBS 2000 w/ ISA on public IP Server was already defined to not relay I unticked check box so that even authenticated users can't relay I followed MS KB article on configuring SBS for non relay, purging queues and deleting bad mail. I only had a few hundred emails stuck in queues, but I'm a little upset that they even got there. So after all of this work last night, I remote in and check the queues and there is an smtp connector in there for the usbank scam. I enumerated it and deleted it. Later on this morning, there are smtp connectors for yahoo and our local roaddunner cfl.rr.com. Is this anyway related to webmail usage? Should I ever see any more smtp connectors than the default four that are always there? Does anybody know the default nature of the relay process in exchange? If everything is configured correctly, am I going to temporarily see a relay in the queues before it is nixed by policy? Is it possible that a user's computer is infected and that is why we are having this problem? All computers are running updated AV. I also turned up the logging as defined in the KB articles and I'm getting some events that: EXPS is temporarily unable to provide protocol security with "matrix". "CSessionContext::OnEXPSInNegotiate" called "HrServerNegotiateAuth" which failed with error code 0x8007052e ( y:\transmt\src\smtpsink\exps\expslib\context.cpp@1462 ). Thanks for any insight and help. I'm not sure where to take it from here. Steve Tag: XP SP2 and LaCie Firewire Drives Tag: 162858

    - Dumb question - how long is the SBS 2003 demo? I can't seem to find this anywhere. Not that it is a huge deal but we are considering upgrading SBS 2000 to 2003 and I would like some time to play with 2003 and I can't seem to find how long the demo lasts and if there are any restrictions on functionality. MS site for ordering demo just states it is a "limited version" of SBS. Thanks Tony Tag: XP SP2 and LaCie Firewire Drives Tag: 162853

    - Problem with Admin permissions MMC won't open - erro message says "Cannot open empty document". No admin tools will open - "MMC cannot open the selected file". Some software won't install - Admin permissions required although I am logged in as Admin. My guess is that permissions were changed and now I can't open the users or policies to revert back to default permissions. Running Win2k Small Business Edition and badly stuck. Help much appreciated. Tag: XP SP2 and LaCie Firewire Drives Tag: 162845

    - Automated backup to 4mm DDs Tape - NTBackup.exe Hi, I run a scheduled backup off the SBS to a file on disk every evening, this seems to runs fine. However I have never succesfully managed to get a scheduled backup to run from the file to a tape. When the file to tape job starts it complains about the media in the tape unit. When using the Backup Wizard to set the job up I tell it to overwrite the media and the name of the media but it always complains that it is not the correct tape. What do I need to do to get this file to tape backup to run every morning automatically without NTBackup complaining? Regards, Ken. Tag: XP SP2 and LaCie Firewire Drives Tag: 162841

    - Application Log Full Message Hi, I keep getting the application log full message popping up on a regular basis. It fills up with lots of information messages, mainly POP3 information messages. I have altered the Event log Group Policy for this log so that it will overwrite as required and I have used the property settings of the application log itself to filter out information messages - all to no avail, the message still keeps popping up saying the log is full, and it is with POP3 information messages? Any ideas? Regards, Ken. Tag: XP SP2 and LaCie Firewire Drives Tag: 162840

    - SBS SP1a I am trying to install SBS 2000 SP1a from CD. I had previously installed the individual components (e.g. EXCH SP3) but am trying to install SP1a from CD to get the Outlook update. When i run the update it returns error: Microsoft Small Business Server 2000 Service Pack 1 - Error 1722 There is a problem with this Windows Installer pckage. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. This appears both on screen and also logged in the Event Viewer. I have tried various fixes including KB326929 plus a recommendation to uninstall Microsoft Office and reinstall from the Sp1a CD. No go.. Does anyone have an idea or reason why this is happening? It won't even let me reinstall Outlook from an original Office 2000 CD. Belinda Tag: XP SP2 and LaCie Firewire Drives Tag: 162838

    - Exchange Server Vs POP3 We are trying to implement a dual heading of email access where the clients recover AND send their email using a remote POP box. We are using .OST files rather than .PST because we need Exchange Server to hold a mirror of their emails. All works fine except if you email another client of the Exchange server in which case the email is not sent out to their POP box but retained by Exchange Server internally. The trouble is that the client may be working off-site and expects all their email to be in the POP box. What settings do we need to change to force Exchange Server to leave outbound emails alone and let them go outside to the POP box in all cases? Tag: XP SP2 and LaCie Firewire Drives Tag: 162813

    - Funny exchange behavior I had the following behavior from my sbs server Setup SBS 2000 ADSL fixed IP Router Linksys BEFSR11 Symptom: very slow response from outlook when checking mails other than plain text messages. While checking the behavior, I noticed that I could not connect to the internet neither from the clients nor from the server. I decided to reset the router, and presto all the problems were gone. Could somebody explain to me this. Maybe this is a bigger issue than reseting the router. BTW the last time that I had to reset the router was 2 months ago. The reason was that I could not VPN to the server from my home. Regards Miguel Sánchez Tag: XP SP2 and LaCie Firewire Drives Tag: 162812

    - Adding a second processor to Windows 2000 w/SBS2000 Does anyone have any experience with adding a second processor to a Windows 2000 server? I'm hoping to replace a single 733Mhz processor with 2 x 933Mhz processors. I know that I need to add multiple processor support in Device Manager but I'm just wondering if anyone has had any bad experiences? Tag: XP SP2 and LaCie Firewire Drives Tag: 162808

    - Linking two SBS offices? I was wondering if anyone knows of any good info on linking two remote offices, each running SBS. We're planning on opening a new office and using SBS2003 on a new server. Our current office uses SBS2K, and all is fine so we have no plans to upgrade this installation. Anyway, I don't know what the best way to manage these two servers is to provide as "seamless" an integration as possible (i.e. can 1 exchange server handle all the email? Can the two servers be VPN'ed to each other to share access to each other's resources, etc.) Thanks! Darrin Tag: XP SP2 and LaCie Firewire Drives Tag: 162804

    - Help: Spam problem with Exchange! We were told by our ISP that we are sending SPAM emails and we were given an example email that we sent. When I traced that example SPAM email under Exchange Message Tracking Center, it is shown as From: xxx@africamail.com To: a list of email addresses including us. The Event is shown as: SMTP: Message Submitted to Advanced Queuing SMTP: Started Message Submission to Advanced Queue SMTP: Message Submitted to Categorizer SMTP: Started Outbound Transfer of Message --- My question is if the message is from from someone (Spam) to us why it is shown as "SMTP: Started Outbound Transfer of Message"? i.e we are sending out this Spam again. Is there somewhere in the Exchange (Windows 2000 SBS) can prevent this happen? Many thanks Leigh Tag: XP SP2 and LaCie Firewire Drives Tag: 162797

Just a heads up for anyone with a LaCie external device that supports
Firewire 800.

If you're planning to install XP SP2, make sure you get and install the
11 Aug Firmware update from LaCie first, or your LaCie device will
become unusable post-SP2. Indeed, XP with SP2 will not boot properly
with such a LaCie device attached. This applies even if the connection
you're using is Firewire 400.
