    - Help - VPN's disconnecting Can anybody help please. We are setting up SBS and are having problems (I bet that is a surprise). When we VPN into the server from remote locations we get 'disconnected' after varying amounts of time. We were testing 3 different laptops: 1 using a telephone line, and the other 2 from another office behind a simple router. We 'usually' get in ok (why not every time?), but then the laptops seem to get disconnected (from the VPN only) after varying times of between 2 and 15 minutes. Any ideas ? Thanks Robert Tag: ReInstall Exchange Server only Tag: 127261

    - User rights and login script SBS Hello, On NT4, Win2000 and XP I have encountered the same problem. I don't want users on workstations to have local admin. rights but when I change the rights to power user. Every next time they login they get a message when the login script is run about not being a member of the admin group. Is there a way to get rid of this message ? or can I give users full rights to run only the script (I need to block settings on the workstations because some people tend to fiddle with computer settings they shouldn't fiddle with! plus illegal software installations, etc,etc) Thanks in advance for your help Len Geeve Gorinchem, Netherlands lendrix2000@hotmail.com Tag: ReInstall Exchange Server only Tag: 127260

    - POP3 Connector Problem Hello all, We use Earthlink for our incoming email and another ISP for our ISDN connection. I am using the ISDN ISP to send email which does not require outgoing authentication. The problem is, I must set up each users computer to send and receive Internet email at each individual workstation. I know that this can be done all at the server but I cant get it to work. I set up the pop3 connector to handle all of the email and all it will do is receive mail. Could someone please walk me through the steps to this up. All SP's and updates are current. (SBS 2000, Outlook 2002) Thanks, Robert Tag: ReInstall Exchange Server only Tag: 127253

    - New errors happening, sort of related Hello, Have two clients, two sbs servers. identical Dells, two companies in one building, different networks. On both servers, one up for about 6 months, the other up for three months, I am seeing the following errors in the event logs on all the clients. All XP PRO Service Pack 1 PC on Server1. A mixture of Win2k/XP Pro PCS on server two. Event Id 1003 DHCP Your computer was not able to renew its address from the network (from the DHCP Server) for the network card with network address....... The following error occurred: The Semaphone timeout period has expired. Your computer will continue to try and obtain an address on its own from the network address DHCP server.

    - SBS 2k - ISA I dont normally install ISA as SBS install however I have done it twice now and both times ISA behaves differently to a standard version of ISA. The issue I am having is ISA appears to work fine ports are locked users cannot access certain protocols etc etc however the users can get internet access without a proxy configuration in their IE setup. The usual configuration of servername:8080 does not work. Whenever I have done this normally i have always had to use a proxyserver:portname in IE on the clients ? is this something different with an SBS build ? do I need to care about it seeing that its working anyway ? oh server is dual homed direct into a router and the other to a switch.

    - DHCP client error Dear all, Thanks for your time first here. I got problem on my DHCP client computer. I can ping ther DHCP server by name and IP. The dynamic IP I got from the server also seems alright to me. But the problem is that I can not get on public internet. However, one of the computer in the same DHCP network can actually access to the internet..... I tried a lot of thing, such as ipconfig /release, renew.... I feel like that the DHCP server blocks the DHCP client to the internet, but I am really not sure and stocked. Please give me a clue if anyone knows anything. Thanks a lot.

    - Naming sender in shared mailbox At a clients site I have setup two users (husband and wife owners) with their mail being sent to the same mailbox. I originally set up each user with their own mailbox and now mail to the husband is being forwarded to the wife and not being retained in his mailbox. All the mail is being delivered to the wife's mailbox ok and when you look at the message it says who the message was sent to, but when she replies to a message that has been sent to the husband the outgoing message says it was sent by her and I would like it to say it was sent by him. Clear as mud!! How do I do this? Thanks Paul Tag: ReInstall Exchange Server only Tag: 127220

    - Changed ISP / Exchange not OK I recently changed ISP. Thus I received a NEW IP-address. The SBS contains 2 nic's I use the "mariette knap" methode. 1 internal / 1 external Exchange uses DNS and smtp to handle it's mail. I reran the Internet Connection wizard. and set both new DNS entries and the routers IP-address (routed subnet) I can send mail but do NOT receive mail The provider says DNS (public) has been changed The webserver is functional (both with IP-address and DNS name (www.mydomain.com) What can be wrong?

    - VPN reposted G'Day I can connect via a Draytek 2600 Router remotely via VPN & run RDP to SBS if I remove bitmap caching. I cannot run RDP on the W2K Terminal Server remotely. RDP runs OK in-house on all the workstations. I can ping the Terminal server & SBS by ip address & name once connected remotely to SBS. Could this be an ISP bandwidth problem. If so how can I prove it. Any help would be appreciated as this has gone on for weeks now & I need to maintain the TS remotely Regards David Hellewell Tag: ReInstall Exchange Server only Tag: 127207

    - Restoring SBS2K from Scratch We had a system crash and we are trying to get it back up. Backup was ran using BackupExec 8.6 SBS edition. First problem is the version of SBS that we are working with does not allow parallel install (no option during setup to pick WinNT directory). Then after we get the systme up and running, all ok at this point. We try to restore AD and and then all hell breaks loose. We lose all the drivers for NICs (called MS on this one and ended up worse than before I called them). We also can't get the Exchange to restore, keep getting error that the restore loses connection or something. I know there are a lot of issue with restoring SBS, but it has to be recoverable. Any links to how to get this thing back up and running would be greatly appreciated. Oh yeah, called Veritas and they say everything should be working....

    - Auto-disconnect failing I have an SBS2K SP3 server setup with ISA and a dial-up connection to the Internet via a modem. The dial-up is set to disconnect after 1 minute inactivity. This is failing and the modem is staying connected. It was working originally and has now stopped for some reason. No new apps have been loaded and there are no errors in event viewer. I have checked for viruses and ad programs and none are running. I have applied the blaster and nachi updates in case of those issues and have tested the server in isolation in case it was a workstation causing traffic. WHat I notice is that when the dial-up is monitored using the systray icon every 30 secs or so there appears to be a few packets, this must be the server as there were no workstations running. My next option is to apply SP4 ( sbs SP1a) and see if that helps but any other suggestions or known issues would be helpful. regards Steve Tag: ReInstall Exchange Server only Tag: 127185

    - Exclude The program files in "Exchsrver " directory ? Hi All With reference to the post down below, seeing as Exch2000 log files are in the main program directory, not the M drive, does that mean that the "Exchsrvr " install directory should be excluded from an a/v scan ? We don't use Norton, we use norman & had to exclude M drive some time back. We have "Norman for Exch2k" but as far as I know, the exch server enabled a/v programs only scan the emails/database, not the program files themselves So,,,, Comments most appreciate Cheers Dotun Tag: ReInstall Exchange Server only Tag: 127184

    - How to Reinstall SBS IIS Directories I recently installed Windows Small Business Server 2003 and REALLY like the improvements over SBS 2000. However, I have somehow trashed the IIS directory structure and cannot access many of the CompanyWeb services. I have tried reinstalling the "Internal Web" from the install disks, but this did not help. Is there a tech article to walk me through a complete IIS SBS 2003 reinstall? If not, would the following work? * Uninstall SBS "Internal Web" * Uninstall IIS * Delete IIS directories * Reinstall IIS * Reinstall SBS "Internal Web" If there is a better way, I am open to any good suggestions.

    - easy ISA question? I'm running SBS2k. I'm working on trying to limit a packet filter to a specific range of external computers - not just one IP... (It works correctly right now with the "All remote computers" option, but I want to limit the remote access for security reasons)... So, after the packet filter is set up, if I choose properties on the Remote Computer tab, there is an option "This range of computers". Since my user has a dynamic IP - but it is always an IP within a certain range, can I setup a subnet/mask to only allow computers from her IP range? How do I do that? I'm not 100% how subnet and mask relate - I guess I expected the choice to be more of a range like 24.x.x.x to 24.y.y.y or something like that... Tag: ReInstall Exchange Server only Tag: 127143

    - Unknown virus/trojan attack Hello all: I think that one of our XP workstations has been compromised with some sort of backdoor / trojan control that is NOT being detected by Symantec AVCE v 8.0 with the most current LiveUpdate defs. When users login, I can see a window titled "update" that starts up in the bottom taskbar next to the start button. If I click on it, I can freeze it for a few seconds, and one time I was able to read additional windows titled with expletives, etc. I have physically removed this machine from the network until it can be fixed. I have looked for unknown programs in the registry key Run, but I don't see anything unusual. This machine did have a virus named Hacktool that was quarantined by SAVCE. I'm wondering if its payload was deployed, but the tool is so new that it hasn't been identified as of yet. Any suggestions? Thanks, Chas Armstrong Tag: ReInstall Exchange Server only Tag: 127140

    - Anti-Virus Question We are running Symantec's Corporate Edition on the SBS2000 and all clients, where updates and schedules are tweaked on the server and relayed to all clients. At the moment, two machines on our LAN do not have AV on them, as the users insist that AV slows down their machine...in fact, he showed me a program he ran on a large database file (GB's worth) and it took double the amount of time than it did with no AV running. Although we disabled the Heuristics in Symantec's BloodHound technology etc..., it still made a difference. I am concerned about these two machines running no AV. I want to install a "light" AV so at least I know that the machines are covered but will not interupt or slow down programs being run (data processing!). Can someone help me and tell me what is a good "light" AV product to buy that is easy on processing power. The machines in question are Windows2000, SP4 patched with all updates and Blaster. The two guys VPN in a lot from home and abroad, so they could easily infect their machines! skc Tag: ReInstall Exchange Server only Tag: 127102

    - Public Folder has unvisible owner - no access for other users Hi, I'm having problems with my public folders. After a complete SBS 2000 re-install (we had a major server crash last week) I've restored all mailboxes and public folders. The mailbox restore went ok, but all public folders now seem to have owners that do not exist on this new system: instead of a real username, in Outlook it displays 'NT User:S-1-5-21-32906815...' as the folder contact. No matter what I try, I cannot get access to the folders. It appears as though the invisible users have access only. I want to remove these invisible users and replace them by either an administrative user or one of our 'power users', like they were in the past. I've tried replacing the permissions in the Exchange Server Manager, and have 'everyone' having 'all rights', as well in Public Folders as in the Public Folder Tree, but that does not seem to change anything. I've searched Google and this newsgroup and although this question has been asked, I could not find a suitable answer. Can you help? Thanks, Rudi Tag: ReInstall Exchange Server only Tag: 127096

    - RAS No Domain Server could be found I have a new SBS 2000 server. The remote dial up clients could access the previous SBS 4.5 server. The remote system connects and is issued IP address and settings via DHCP correctly (DNS WINS mask). However, the whenever the user name, password and domain are issued the error "no domain server can be found" occurs. I can continue past this and ping the server. I can ping the Internet router (separate) and browse the Internet. The IP, WINS and DNS server addresses are correct. I can access the Exchange Server and send mail (Occasional retry required). If I use an invalid user name then I am advised of that. I have configured the hosts and lmhosts files on the clients with the SBS server IP and domain name details. This problem happens with Windows 98 SE clients and Windows XP Pro (SP1) clients. I have granted RRAS group policy access. I have configured other Windows 2000 SBS RAS servers before. (We have one in our office that I access regularly - I have tested remote client access to our office server without error). We have loaded Windows 2000 SP4. (had error before (SP3) and after) TCPIP only protocol at server or clients. Have released network card protocols on remote client pc network card. Running out of options - any suggestions? Appears to be a DNS or WINS issue. Client now needs to travel and requires remote access with 24 hours. Tag: ReInstall Exchange Server only Tag: 127092

    - Client PCs lose their connection to the server Hi, I've been having problems with my SBS2000 setup since downloading Microsoft's upgrades relating to MsBlast. Every so often, my client PCs lose their connection to the server. In Explorer I get a red X across the drive so, for example, when I click on my K drive I get the message "K:\ drive is not accessible. The networkpath was not found". Clicking on the drive letters several times does not get back the connection so I don't think it's the time-out issue I've read about. It's not always every PC on the network that loses the connection but, more often than not, it is. The only way that I seem to be able to get around it is by rebooting all the machines, starting with the server. I haven't noticed that I am doing, or using, anything unusual in the sense that the only thing that has changed over the last few weeks is as a result of the Microsoft upgrade (coincidence?). I'm running SBS2000 with a maximum of four client PCs. The server has one NIC and has the ADSL modem attached. Three of the PCs run Windows 2000 and the fourth runs Windows 98. The latter was not on this morning when the latest two events happened. Any ideas? Andy Tag: ReInstall Exchange Server only Tag: 127091

    - Backup Software Choice Hello I am going to be backing up our SBS server to a DAT or DLT. I am trying to decide on backup software at the best cost. Backupexec is a common one but comes with various add-ons for different functions. A bit complicated. The other I have looked at is Tapeware. They have a product called the Small Business Server Pack. It appears easier and cheaper. Questions. Does anybody have any preferences ? If so why. Is backup software bundled with backup devices these days ? Does the "full" backup / disaster recovery (as indicated with HP drives)....really work, and is it the software that does it ?

    - Odd internet connectivity problem What is happening is periodically the internet will go down. The setup is a dual nic to a router as per Merv's excellent instructions. When we make some investigations here is what we find. 1. we can ping the external NIC. (192.168.16.2) 2. We cant ping the router (192.168.16.1) 3. We reboot the router and we have the same problem. 4. we Reboot the server and we can then ping the router and the internet starts to work. I am assuming that this is due to the fact the server can ping the router after a reboot. Any suggestions would appreciated. TIA Tag: ReInstall Exchange Server only Tag: 127088

The FBI is "confident" that it will capture those who are responsible for creating and spreading the MSBlast worm and the Sobig.F virus, the bureau said on Tuesday. Companies and home computer users have had to deal with the MSBlast worm -- also known as W32/Blaster and W32.Lovsan -- which started spreading on 11 August; a worm that attempted to plug the hole exploited by the MSBlast worm; and the Sobig.F virus, which spread through email attachments opened by unsuspecting people. http://news.zdnet.co.uk/0,39020330,39115922,00.htm Secure gateway email servers key to virus blocking Gateway email security is key to stopping the spread of virus outbreaks such as Sobig.F, according to analyst group Gartner. Sobig.F used spoofed email addresses to spread itself from infected computers - and the problem was compounded by a deluge of spam caused by anti-virus systems, which sent an alert notifying the spoofed sender that the message they had supposedly sent was infected. http://www.silicon.com/news/500013/1/5753.html ISPs Add Filters to Anti-Virus Arsenal http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A54406-2003Aug27.html Why Sobig is bad for privacy and AV vendors http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/56/32510.html Worming into my inbox http://www.cnn.com/2003/TECH/08/27/hln.wired.worm.inbox/index.html Barbarians at the digital gates http://www.boston.com/business/BCWorkbench/site/business/BCWorkbench/site/business/technology/articles/2003/08/27/barbarians_at_the_digital_gates/ Microsoft fires up security Update beta project http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=11221 http://www.itweb.co.za/sections/internet/2003/0308270949.asp Microsoft Using Linux-Based Network in Wake of Attacks http://www.newsfactor.com/perl/story/22171.html Companies Brace for SoBig's Next Punch http://www.newsfactor.com/perl/story/22170.html Worms a plague -- or nuisance http://www.startribune.com/stories/789/4063564.html - - - - - - - - - - Aussie antispammer shuttered by DoS attacks Osirusoft, one of the largest antispam blacklist, has been shut down by its operator following a barrage of massive Distributed Denial of Service (DoS) attacks that have crippled the service.

    - REQ: What am I doing wrong? I can't get deleted item retetion to work. Hey gang! I was wondering how to get the "Recover Deleted Items" function to work with Exchange 2000. I had it working previously with Exchange 5.5 and Outlook 2000, but when I did a fresh installation of SBS 2000, with Exchange 2000, it no longer functions. I believe I turned it on correctly. Do you need a newer version of Outlook in order for it to work with Exchange 2000? Thanks in advance for any advice. Tag: ReInstall Exchange Server only Tag: 127081

    - ISA SMTP Filter Hi there I have a customer who is getting heaps of Sobig virus emails. I have been experimenting with the SMTP filter that comes with SBS2000 but it is saying that because the SMTP server and ISA are on the same computer it is not going to work. Has anyone used these filters with SBS2000?? Thanks Daniel. Tag: ReInstall Exchange Server only Tag: 127067

    - Report generation problems Hi I am having problems generating regular reports from the ISAS. I follow all the steps in Mr Brelsford's book (re Naughty and Nice reports), and manage to create the report definition OK, but get a failure everytime when it comes to actually generating the report. Are there some other settings that have to be switched on before I can do this? I am sure I was able to do this before, but seem to have lost the ability now (and have no idea what has changed). Any help with this matter would be appreciated. -- Regards Keith Laurie Tag: ReInstall Exchange Server only Tag: 127050

    - Upgrade SBS 4.5 to SBS2000 on new hardware - Questions I've read the MS document on how to do this, as listed in many replies to this class of question. However, I don't see a method to do this whereby you do not need to remove/join domain on clients. My Client has 50 pcs, and I don't want to remove/join, as well as setup the users profiles on PCs. MY Client has software installed that requires special settings for the users. Creating a new Domain SID would mean that each user gets a new profile on their workstation. This would cause me to have to perform many steps on each PC after moving to SBS2000. I thought that perhaps the following would work: 1) Install Win2K Server as DC on existing domain. 2) Remove SBS 4.5 from network. 3) Install SBS2000 on Win2K server box to keep AD info. or 1) Remove SBS4.5 from network. 2) Install SBS2000 on new server. 3) Use AD Migration tool to migrate data from existing NT BDC. Any assitance would be greatly appreciated. Again, my goal is to keep the domain SID while moving to a new server. Thanks Sean Trimm Tag: ReInstall Exchange Server only Tag: 127049

    - Active Directory...... When add the client computers to the domain, they're put into the default container 'computers' under Active Directory. At this point, I am able to install programs to the clients via the wizard. I then added another OU called computers under the My Business OU. This was so I can use Group Policy on the workstations. When I moved these computers to this OU, I am not able to push programs down to the client via the wizard. I get an error saying that the computer is not available on the network. Do I have to keep the computers accounts in the default container in AD and not move them to another OU in order be able to use the wizard to push programs to the clients? Is there something that i am missing or something that i can do in order to have group policy to work on these clients without going to the domain level of the AD? Thanks in advance to anyone that can help. Mike Tag: ReInstall Exchange Server only Tag: 127039

My clients all use office 2000 but SBS2000 has outlook 2002. Can I use the 'add software to computer' wizard to upgrade to outlook 2002 without loosing the settings? 2) Also I have set the firewall to allow FTP but clients cant FTP do I need to set up anything else to allow access?
