    - Version of Outlook for OWA I am in the process of setting up OWA however the SBS 2000 server I'm working on looks to have a pre-Outlook 2003 client installed. Most of the folks in our office work with Outlook 2003. If I install Outlook 2003 on the server, will OWA use that version? Thanks in advance. Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178719

    - 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?

    - Username & password greyed out 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 with Windows Update. Restarting the PC (without installing any updates) has returned the Ctrl-Alt-Del prompt to it's normal state. Was this problem liked to WSUS? I cannot find anything on the net for this issue - are we the first to have it?! :-) Cheers Rob Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178713

    - 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. Regards, Bruce Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178711

    - 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: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178706

    - Changing an SBS2000 Premium box to SQL2000 server Hope someone can give me ideas for this project:- I've swing migrated our SBS2000 Premium to a new WSBS2003 Premium box. I now want to convert the old SBS2000 box to something running SQL2000 standard edition (an additional SQL server to the one built into the WSBS2003 box). Can a Transition pack do this, or is it cheaper to wipe it and lose the 30 CAL's in favour of a new Windows Server 2003 and SQL 2000 standard editions and CALs.

    - Unable to open the Administrator Console in SBS 2000 When trying to open the Server Management console I get the following error: Server Busy This action cannot be completed because the other program is busy. Choose 'Switch To' to activate the busy program and correct the problem I then have 3 options 'SwitchTo', 'Retry' or 'Cancel' No matter what option I try I just end up with the same message - Server Busy Once I've tried to open the Server Management Console, the whole of the START menu is unavailable - meaning that I can click on the START button (or press the windows key) but nothing happens. The only way I can get any response is to reboot. Even then I struggle to get into other applications: Am trying to open Network connections, but whichever way I try the window will not open. Have tried via the START menu and via My computer | Control panel Other symptoms is that the server seems very slow. Task Mgr performance shows server running at between 47% - 100% yet I have little running in the way of Applications. Task Mgr Processes shows highest peak memory usage by W3Proxy.exe, Svchost.exe, DriverServer.ex (yes .ex - whatever that is?), sqlservr.exe and LSASS.EXE I've ran Panda and cleaned the odd item found. Have tried to run TrendMicro clean but application gets so far and then hangs, before even starting to scan. Norton reports everything ok virus wise. Although have now noticed that I can't get into the Symantec System Centre anymore. Dispite these issues on the server the network itself seems ok, users are not complaining as yet!

    - Installing licenses with a USB floppy I recently had to rebuild a server for a customer. It is SBS 2000. The new server did not have a floppy drive. I need to use a USB floppy to install the license upgrade pack. However, when I try to install the license, after agreeing to the license agreement, I get a message that the license diskette is either damaged, a copy, or illegal. It is a brand new license disk, purchased in an unopened package. I've tried 2 license disks and have even replaced the USB floppy twice with no success. Any ideas as to what is going on here? Any way anybody knows of to get these licenses installed? The customer is a non- profit and doesn't really have the funds to buy a copy of 2003 SBS. Any help would be appreciated.

    - Event ID 1221 I was just reviewing the event log on my server when I noticed Event ID 1221 with the following description: The database "First Storage Group\Public Folder Store (SBSSERVER)" has 1 megabytes of free space after online defragmentation has terminated. I am very concerned that there is only 1 megabyte of free space available in my Public Folder Store, however I don't understand why this is the case. Given the 16gig limit for Exchange, when I browse folder C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\MDBDATA my database is nowhere near this size limit. Following is a directory listing: 11/08/2006 09:35p 592,650,240 priv1.edb 11/08/2006 09:35p 113,254,400 priv1.stm 11/09/2006 08:16a 1,016,209,408 pub1.edb 11/08/2006 09:35p 182,460,416 pub1.stm As you can see my public folders are only using 1gig of space. So I am confused, is there an immediate crisis going on with my Exchange database? Do I need to start purging e-mails right away? Or is there a 1gig limit being imposed on the folder, and if so how do I increase it? Please help! Don Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178687

    - Upgrading to SBS2003 R2 & New hdwe. Do the CAL's for SBS2003 work for sbs2003 R2 or do I have to purchase new CAL's too? I will be purchasing a new server and installing R2 on it. Is the SWING method for upgrading really the best way to move everything from one box to another? And what exactly does it "move"? I only have about 30 users so I don't mind recreating them. My biggest concern is NOT loosing their email. I would like to have as much of a "fresh/clean" install as possible since we had someone poking around the SBS box trying this and trying that. Who know what's been changed and "made" to work but might not be done the "right" way. Any suggestions on new server hardware? The box will have VERY heavy printing loads and be used for file serving. Thanks, in advance, for anyone's suggestions. Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178686

    - Slow Response Times Some users have been reporting slow response times when opening their e-mail messages. From what I saw it would take about 5 to 10 seconds for a message to open. I checked the mailboxes in Exchange 2000 and nobody has an excessive amount of messages on the server. I run a backup every night of the Exchange store. I am not sure how to tell how much of the 16gig alloted space is used up, however I don't believe we are even close to the limit. Are there any other cleanup processes I should be running on a scheduled basis? To throw another curve into the mix, some of the users are complaining about the network in general being slower than usual. I have monitored the CPU, Hard Drive and Network bandwith on the server. All seem to be well within acceptable ranges. I am sort of at a loss as to where to begin troubleshooting these issues. The network has been running flawlessly for about 3 years now. It has only been withing the last month that the complaints have started to come in. Thank you in advance, Don Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178685

    - RDC over VPN stopped working One of our remote workers (at a hotel) is currently having a problem with a RDC over VPN that has always worked in the past. He connects to the VPN with success, then when launching his RDC, he gets this message: "The client could not connect to the remote computer. Remote connections might not be enabled or the computer might be too busy to accept new connections. It is also possible that network problems are preventing your connection. Please try connecting again later. If the problem continues to occur, contact your administrator." We tried other RDCs & he cannot connect to any desktop at work location. The RDC is set to use Static IP address of desktops, not computer names. >From my location, I have successfully connected to his desktop through the same VPN. Could his hotel be blocking something? If so, how do we tell for sure? And Secondly, why would the VPN connect, but not the RDC. Thanks Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178681

    - Network goes AWOL after a couple of minutes (pt 2) Hi This continues the issue raised here: http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.backoffice.smallbiz2000/browse_thread/thread/c5eb3d85f5853655/01915ae1a5b1d808?lnk=st&q=robsavage&rnum=2#01915ae1a5b1d808 Since then, the issue has come back repeatedly, and no matter what processes of elimation we try, we canot nail the problem down. For the past 2 months, they have had my own Cisco 2950 (not a 2940 as I said before) in place and had not a single problem. However, I want my switch back now! I am typing out a quote for a new Cisco switch, but expect them to ask why they should pay several hundred GBP just because we cannot identify the cause of the problem. I'm also dead nervous that if we sell them the switch and then the problem does happen again....! To recap - network goes down intermittently, with all lights lit up on the switch. Restart the switch and all is fine again. I have since plugged the server into the firewall so that in these situations, at least their mail server is still up and running to collect mail. But the problem remains. So it ain't the server causing the issue, as all that is connected to the switch when it goes down now are PCs and a printer. It just baffles me why the Cisco switch is so solid in this regard as opposed to the other switches. We had the original Dell unit back in place a couple of months ago, and they were getting the problem several times per week. I installed the Cisco, and there's not been a single occurrence since. Any further suggestions would be greatly appreciated, else I shall have to email them the quote! Cheers Rob Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178670

    - Router to SBS-2003 VPN Connection I have an SBS-2003 Server installed with its standard Basic Firewall ... After configuring RRAS, the Remote Windows Clients can successfully VPN the SBS-2003 and the performace is very good ... My delima is when I have tried to connect a Branch Office using different VPN Routers (NetGear - LinkSys) through IPSec but was never successful ... Also, I have followed Microsoft Guidelines in KB:816514 for configuring IPSec Tunneling in Windows 2003 Server and did all the recommended settings but with no luck ... For example, the NetGear FVS124G Router VPN Log shows the following: :: IKE phase-I negotiation started :: IKE phase-I message not received after retries :: Sending a Delete payload of protocol ISAKMP and Peer IP: 4568441c :: Deleting the IsakmpSA As seen from the above, the IKE Phase-I SA doesn't get a response and after (5) retries, it will delete the Phase-I SA proposal before even going to Phase-II SA ... Is there any other steps that I need to configure on the SBS-2003 Server-side other than creating the IPSec Policy ??? ... Appreciate your help so that I can setup this Branch Office to connect to the SBS-2003 ... Thanks ... Reda Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178668

    - SBS2k Exchange recovery - HELP! All, SBS2k, Exchange has hit the end-stops bigtime. Ran offline defrag, and got system back up.. Client didn't have enough time to offload anything before ISP did a 'Mail DB failover'. - This resulted in the same emails coming in twice! Exchange lasted 16 hours between the end of defrag to keeling over again. This time, there was also an event log entry saying that the disk with Mdbdata on it had got to below 10MB free. - This not true. Partitions set to run chkdsk, and server rebooted. I presume there isn't a hack to increase the database size, as there is in Exchange2003? Is there a way to extract a mailbox from Exchange, when exchange won't run? If I did this, could I then uses eseutil to compact what was left, then clear out a sizeable chunk, then get the extracted mailbox back in?

    - When internet went, so did access to other servers? Odd one... and it has never happened before... Our T1 line from Verizon went down this AM, and within a couple of minutes, my users started getting Timeout issues connecting to the SQL Enterprise Edition on another server (which is a member of the domain). I could have sworn that they were unrelated at that time... I took one of the users PC's and changed it to a workgroup (removed it from the domain), and it could run the software on the other server which accesses that SQL server with out any issues. Went to one of the PC's that was still logged into the domain, and it could browse that SQL server, but would time out connecting to the database. T1 from Verizon comes back up... and bang... back in business. No more time out issues. Any suggestions, comments, what to do's? We have lost our internet connection in the past, and it has never effected us elsewhere running apps. -Dennis Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178648

    - Can I add a second CPU to SBS? Hi all, Planning my NT to SBS 2003 R2 migration, I found that I don't have the full documentation on the server hardware - I know the CPU is a XEON 2.4 GHz, but not the frontside bus speed - could be either 400 or 533. I will need to add a CPU (board supports 2, currently 1 installed) but the CPUs must match. Seeing as I'm currently running NT 4 on this server, I can't use Intel's product info utility to get the info - Windows 2000 or higher required. Once it's running SBS 2003 I can easily run the piu utility to get the full processor specs in order to get a match. Can I add the CPU to the server AFTER the migration? Any gotcha's or watch-its? I know NT 4 was a nasty piece of business to add a CPU. TIA, SusanV Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178647

    - Motherboard Upgrade for SBS 2000 Server We have a customer with a SBS 2000 Server that is about five years old. The hard drives were recently replaced, so they have plenty of capacity and they are fast SCSI drives. We are getting ready to replace the motherboard, CPU and memory to get the server's hardware up to date. I have done this same procedure with a Windwows 2000 Server. In that case the operating system had trouble booting, so I just booted on the Windows 2000 CD and ran a repair, which loaded the proper drivers for the new hardware and everything was fine. Can the same procedure be used for SBS 2000 (running a repair install to get the correct drivers for the new hardware)? Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178636

If I log in locally or on a terminal server session, multiple copies of the "QuickLaunch" tool bar are being loaded. In some case 5 or 6 instances! It basically takes up the entire bottom of the screen. So to fix, you have to right-click somewhere on the task bar, click toolbars and uncheck the multiple instances of the QuickLaunch toolbar that are checked there.

SBS Administrator Console->Server Status (BackOffice Home)->About As per: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;296052 However, this doesn't work. For some reason, the Server Status page is broken and nothing is shown, therefore I can't click the about button. I'm not particularly fussed about fixing this at the moment as the Upgrade will remove the SBS2000 version of this console anyway. However, I do still need to know the number of installed liceneses. Anyone know any other method? Is it stored in the registry anywhere? Thanks in advance. Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178573

    - VPN Connection problem Hi, I am trying to setup a VPN connection in SBS 2000 which is configured with two nics and NO ROUTER device is involved. From client side I'm getting error TCP/IP error 733;From server I'm getting error 20050( no network protocol were sucessfully negotiatated). I already tried changing DHCP ip address assign to static pool in RRAS, changed MTU setting for VPN connection in registry, disabled multilink connections and nothing worked. I tried also to connect from inside network and still I'm having same errors. I've narrowed to reinstalling TCP protocol, or reinstalling ISA ( maybe is ISA problem) or making some changing based on article ID 292822, found in microsoft webside " Name resolution and connectivity issues on a RRAS that also runs DNS or Wins". I'd like some advice before proceding making these changes. Thanks, -- Thanks Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178572

    - Upgrading from SBS2000 to SBS2003 Some advise needed please. Firstly "Microsoft Windows Small Business Server 2003 - Additive version upgrade licence - 5 device CALs - English" Microsoft Product # T74-01214 Can anyone tell me what "Additive version" means . Will this allow me to upgrade our SBS2000 5 Cals setup? Secondly, the standard version of SBS2003 does not include ISA and SQL Server whereas the Premium does but they are the 2000 versions. So can I upgrade SBS2K to 2K3 and effectively have 2K3 Premium by using ISA2K & SQL Server 2K from the previous SBS2K install? Ideally I want to start with a clean sweep so can I re-format the hard disk, load 2K3 (either by installing 2K first or maybe inserting 2K disk or supplying product key when asked) then install ISA2000 & SQL Server 2000 from the SBS2K disks? Many thanks Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178570

    - Exchange 2000 POP3 to SMTP Hi I'm having trouble getting my SBS2000 server to receive mail through SMTP. Until now we have been happy using the POP3 Connector, but now we'd like to use SMTP. I have started by running the ICW, telling it to use SMTP and Disable POP3 and it has made a new SMTP connector. The Virtual SMTP server is using all un-assigned ip's on port 25 with no filters and Access control has Anonymous, Basic and integrated checked.- there are also no IP restrictions. Even after running ICW the POP3 connector still exists - is this right? When testing the setup on the server itself using 'telnet \\servername 25' I get 'Could not open connection to the host, on port 25 : Connect failed' Active Ports states that inetinfo.exe is listening on port 25. FWIW - I don't have ISA installed but I am running IIS & GFI Mail Essentials. Any ideas why I cannot get the exchange welcome message when opening port 25 using telnet? Many Thanks James Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178555

    - Incorrect login information and roaming profile We have user on the network who when they login using their roaming profile to any of our new Windows XP machines and start Outlook she received error: "Your logon information was incorrect. Check your username and domain, then type your password again. If your account is new or if your administrator requested a password change you need to click Change Password then logon with your new password. " If she tried to enter her network username and password again it just continues to prompt her and eventually boots her out. She also has the same issue when she opens IE. She is prompted constantly for username and password. One message she received mentioned something about the username she is entering is different to the one used to login to the computer. I have changed her username and password so she can now get past these prompts by entering the new information but she is still getting the prompts. Any ideas?

    - Updating from Microsoft Update Is there an issue with updating SBS2K from the Microsoft update site? I've just completed a new install of SBS and manually applied W2K SP4, SP4 rollup, and IE6. When visiting Microsoft Update it advised that I needed some OS updates (KB842773 and Windows Installer 3.1). They consistently failed with error 0x80004002. Manual installation from Microsoft download worked OK, and now it looks like the update site is downloading and installing OK. Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178542

    - Can I add an Exchange server to an SBS2000 Echange ORG? I would like to migrate the users off the SBS2000 server before doing an upgrade to SBS2003 then with the transition pack, move to native 2003. I want to do this so that when I upgrade the SBS2000 server, the e-mail will not be interupted for the users. Has anyone done this before? I've done many Exchange upgrades, migrations and move mailbox tasks, so the mechanics is not an issue, just if it will let me join the SBS2000 ORG without barking. For your troubles, I'll share this with you. Exchange replication that works using "exmerge" and a scheduler. http://www.schmooseme.com/recovery.htm RSC Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178540

    - Stop SPAM entering Exchange Svr (due to space issues) Hi, Our disk space is at capacity (we are due to move to a new SBS2003 server) but we are being inundated with spam. Is there a way to block mail from a certain domain before it is stored in ES ? - like, turn it away at the gate (by spam, I mean emails addressed to a certain user, or coming from a certain domain?)

    - Single NIC settings for DNS & WINS I had a problem updating the Broadcom drivers for a single NIC SBS 2000 system. The update failed and the configuration got screwed up. I was able to get the update process to work. ICW fails. I rebuilt the NIC's TCP/IP manually and the server is basically functioning. Some of the information seems wrong. Please respond on the following questions about the NIC's Advanced TCP/IP Settings: 1) Should the list of DNS servers include the NIC's IP address as the first server? 2) Should the list of WINS addresses include the NIC's IP address? The list is currently empty. 3) Is there some log showing more information about ICW failures? Nothing shows in the event logs. Thanks, Joe M Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178533

    - problem with Trend Micro Vulnerability Scanner(TMVS) Hallo, when I start the Trend Micro Vulnerability Scanner(TMVS) on my Trendmicro officescan server, it does not work anymore. I see the memory usage increasing and increasing, but nothing happens. So my question is if there is a possibility to reinstall TMVS or to download a newer version of TMVS? Best regards CB Tag: SBS2k post build SQL install Tag: 178521

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.

TIA,
Philip Partridge

Run SBS Setup, either from Add/Remove Programs, or CD1.

Work your way through to the component selection page, and you'll get to
decide what to do, and can choose to just install SQL Server.
