    - How to use the Guest account with (XP) roaming profiles? I'd like to utilize the Guest account/Group for, well, guests (Internet and printers access but no files or Exchange). Enabling the Guest account works but how do I customize the darn XP profile? It insists on recreating it anew every time I log on (as a guest). I insured that the Guest has access to it's user folder and the profile path is in the properties but it refuses to remember the settings. Any ideas? (Ordinary users use the roaming profiles without a hitch.) - Robert. Tag: Replace Drive - now what? Tag: 115152

I am dialing directly into the server via modem and am able to establish the vpn - but I can't get to exchange/TS/or files. (on the network I can get to exchange and TS no problem) Any suggestions?

    - is it known issue? We have 3 companies that share a single domain, and we have installed a new server with SBS in one of those companies.after installing Windows Server (CD 1) the server was joined to the domain, when we tried to continue with the SBS installation an error occured and the reason:you cant install SBS on a member server. we disjoined the server from the domian and tried to continue with the installation, but the wizard went through the installing Active Directory step. My question is: I need to install another 10 CALs on this SBS server because it will run an SQL application and I cant install the licenses without installing the SBS management Console, however, I dont want to install Active Directory as I want this server to be a memeber server, is that possible?

    - Is 400 / 500 paging faults per second excesive. Hi Have a server running SBS 2000 service pak 1. It has two processors, a gig of memory and loads of hard disk space. I am recieving warnings of high page faults. The threshold is set for 200 but currently I have current faults at 541, minimum at 142, maximum 14220, average 467. Is this normal? SQL server, exchange, web proxy and normal functions are running on the server. The pages per sec are current 1, min 0, max 2156 average 3.5. Page inputs are 1, min 0, max 2156 average .99. Again is this normal should I just increase the threshold, or is it a problem and what steps do I take to resolve this? With thanks Calvin Tag: Replace Drive - now what? Tag: 115106

    - email filter Currently I am running SBS on a single server. Using Exchange 2000 as the internal mail server. I have configured outlook for exchange and exchange to hook up and download mail from my ISP (Earthlink) on a 56k modem (only choice). When I set up ISA server with default filters and enable filters I am unable to download mail from my ISP. Unchecking enable filters gets my mail through, but shuts off my firewall. I have tried several custom filters to get my mail through to no avail. Any help on creating a mail filter or resources to work it out myself would be appreciated.

    - fax client won't install on XP I was just assigned the task of figuring out why the SBS fax client won't install on any Windows XP workstations. I found a technet artical that references disabling the fax client that comes with Windows 2000 before trying to install the SP fax client. The artical didn't reference XP however.

    - XP Client logon over Linksys VPN slow or fails entirely We have recently tried to add a remote location to our HQ small business 2000 networkusing an IPsec VPN tunnel. The remote location has a win2k server running as a domain controller also. We want to add them in order to use exchange, shared folders, and control web access using a product called surfcontrol. We set up both the remote and hq locations with 128k "fixed IP" dsl lines and Linksys befsx41 router/firewalls. A VPN was established between the two routers. I can ping between them with no problem using local lan IP addresses. I can ping the machine name of the sbs server from the remote location. We added an xp client from the remote to the HQ domain. Although the process took quite a while it semed to work OK. However the login process takes a long time (10-20 minutes) and about 50% of the time when its done we can't access the server. During this long login process, there does not seem to be much traffic over the VPN nor is the perf monitor showing much in the way of system activity on either the client or the server. It just seems to be waiting for something that sometimes never happens. We took the same xp client that exhibited this behavior to the hq location, put it on the LAN, and it logs in and works OK. There are no user error messages displayed when this happens. Event viewer has a few messages about services not being able to find a domain controller. The only thing I can find differently about the VPN connection is that we can not send as many bytes in a ping packet as we can on the local lan whithout getting a timeout. 45 bytes less works OK. I assume that is for IPSec info or something. Is this our problem? Any ideas? Tag: Replace Drive - now what? Tag: 115078

    - Transfer domain from Win2k ADC to SBS 2000 I have finally convinced the boss to buy SBS2000 (mainly for Exchange). I need to "transfer" the existing Windows 2000 domain (running on a Win2k ADC) to a new SBS2000 machine. Resulting in the SBS machine having the master active directory roles. Is there a knowledge base article or whatever with instructions on how to do this? Thanks Tag: Replace Drive - now what? Tag: 115049

    - SBS2K Slower than it should be I just setup a new SBS setup with only 3 clients setup so far. Fast SCSI drives, fast gigabit nics, 39160 adaptec ard.. Built it. Very fast workstation but slow over the network. Well, it should be faster for what is has. It is SBS2000, SP1 installed. ISA Server is on. All the duplex settings match. Internet access is fast though. It is just copying files over. I don't even have my antivirus installed yet. It is a XEON 2.8. I have older Pentiums that are just as fast and don't have the fast scsi drives. Is there a way to improve performance on the server. I remember a way of setting the server that it should be a certain way depending on how it is used but I don't remember where that setting is. I remember using the setting back when SBS 2K first come out. This server is primarily a print/file server, ISA, Exchange. Where is that setting? I am having a brain fade.

    - SBS with two DHCP servers Is there a particular reason why you can't have 2 DHCP servers in a SBS enviroment? I mean... why SBS was designed this way? Since Win2k let's you do this... why SBS does not? What's the difference? I know that in most cases 2 DHCP servers in such a small network is not a great advantage... but why get rid of this feature? -KW Tag: Replace Drive - now what? Tag: 115031

    - How do I Troubleshoot Problems? Hello all, I have almost completed a move of my Small Business Server 2000 installation to a nice new machine, but I am having a little trouble with Exchange Server part of it. I have setup the software suite, added the users to A.D., ExMerge'd the old mailboxes and ExMerge'd them onto the new server, connected the clients and verified they can login and see their old mail. The bit I am having trouble with is what I think is referred to as 'transport'. When I send messages (to other clients) I get nothing; no NDR's, no event log messages and certainly no mail on the receiving end. I am running the old server which worked fine for a couple of years, all be it slowly, along side (but not connected) and I have replicated the settings from the old to the new, but still nothing! I would like some advise on how to identify the point at which the system is failing. Is there a way of having Exchange log activity in the way other programs or services do into event viewer complete with event id's to find solutions from? Any ideas gratefully received. Regards James tgl Tag: Replace Drive - now what? Tag: 114568

    - Problems in accessing news sites; external ftp and AvantGo I have SBS2000 installed and around 10 workstations all running W2kpro or XPpro. The server uses the default configuration for IIS and ISA (except that I have enabled OWA and had to do some specific stuff to enable that - following the MS knowledgebase instructions). The network is all private addresses accessing sharing a single public IP address. Until around two weeks ago I (as the administrator) could access newsgroups (like I am now - but I am doing this from home), upload stuff to my company website (hosted by the ISP) via ftp and sychronise my Sony Clie using AvantGo. Here are the problems: a) My assistant (who has administrator priviliges on the system) has never been able to upload pages to the website via ftp. She gets a proxy error every time from her machine (running XPpro) but can connect and upload from a different machine; b) I cannot now connect to newsgroups. Outlook Express reports that the news server is unreachable); c) AvantGo also times out with a proxy error - it previously d) Realplayer (both 8 and One) report proxy errors - so, for instance, I can't now access the live radio feed from the BBC website. With the exception of a), I could do all these things 2 weeks ago. I have no policies which block this traffic. I haven't changed anything I am aware of. All the protocol and filter rules seem to be in place and active and the applications filters are set to allow ftp and streaming media. I can't see anything in place to stop this traffic yet it will not pass. I can't find anything on the MS site to help me. I've got Tom Shindler's book (and I've looked on the website). Neither describe the problem or, therefore, offer any remedies. Now, I'm assuming this is probably an ISA server problem - because of the frequent 'proxy server' error messages. I might be wrong. Has anybody any thoughts which might help? Paul Coventry/UK Tag: Replace Drive - now what? Tag: 114280

I had a SCSI drive fail, which I am replacing. It is not
my primary drive, so my server does boot up. I don't have
Raid. How should I proceed. I had two logical drives, and
some development and test files on that hard drive. Must
I manually create the logical drives, or is there a better
way? Then what, restore from backup?

Is there no reasonable way that I can repair that drive? I
no longer see it on my server.

the drive should show up in disc admin. You will need to format it and
assign it a drive letter, then she should be good to go
