    - Login to domain problem I have a SBS2k server. I have a remote site with a few PCs. I have a VPN setup on a T1 between the offices. Some of the PCs log onto the domain fine, some say they cannot find a domain controller and logon using cached credentials. All are configured the same, running NT4SP4 or above and using DHCP from the Router/Firewall/VPN. They all can ping the WINS server in the main office. Any ideas? How should I go about troubleshooting? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide. Tag: SMTP attachment filter Tag: 124811

    - OT: Remote User protect We have a number of remote users that access the system via dial up account to isp's and then vpn into the system. With the problems that have been exposed via Blaster worm etc.. what would be the recommended way to secure these clients from attacks from viruses and port scanning etc.. I must point out that all the machine's have av software loaded and they have the latest updates automatically installed. Is the only way to have ZoneAlarm or other personal firewall software loaded on the machines. What do you guys use. I would normally expect remote users to have a hardware firewall but as they are accessing via BT OpenWorld accounts then they are unable to have multiple IP's. Any suggestions?

    - Routers vs. bridges I changed DSL providers recently (from ADSL to SDSL) which required a new router. Connection to the Internet from inside the network is just fine. However, remote access does not work as it should - I can connect into the network, but cannot connect to any drive using TCP/IP. The only protocol that works is NETBEUI and I can't connect to the Internet using a browser at all. My previous ADSL router was set up as a bridge and I had no remote connection problems. I had thought to have my provider change over the router into a bridge, but they are going to charge me to do so. Considering that the router works from inside the network, I believe that it should be able to be accessed remotely without switching over to a bridge, but I'm at a loss as to how to make it happen. Hopefully someone can help. Here are the particulars: *Router setup* LAN IP Address 10.10.10.1 WAN Data PVC 0*38 WAN Protocol RFC 1483 WAN Connection Speed DOWN 384Kb/s : UP 384Kb/s Bridging enabled IP Routing enabled WAN IP Address 64.245.73.89 WAN Gateway 0.0.0.0 DNS Server Address 0.0.0.0 : 0.0.0.0 Address Translation enabled *RRAS setup* General tab - Router (LAN and Demand dialing) and Remote Access SErver checked Security - MSCHAP v2 IP - Enable IP routing; Allow IP-based remote...; IP address by DHCP checked. Obtain DHCP from Internal NIC *NICs* Internal NIC is set with the IP address 192.168.16.1 and the DNS is set the same External NIC is with IP address of 10.10.10.2; gateway of 10.10.10.1 and DNS of 192.168.16.1 Tag: SMTP attachment filter Tag: 124789

    - Making Distribution Groups Unavailable From To The Outside World Hello, SBS2K. I have a few distribution groups on my server for different departments (along with the default group that SBS creates that include everyone). The problem is that people from the outside world are sending messages to these groups and we are getting mass spam to them. These groups only need to be used in house. Is there any way that I can close these addresses to the outside world? Thanks, Chris Tag: SMTP attachment filter Tag: 124787

    - Security Groups - How to Remove I have taken over a network someone else setup. I can't add any workstations to the domain easily. I have setup effective firewall and don't need or want all those restrictions. What is the easiest way to remove ALL Group and Local policies - figuring I would need to alter the "My Business" snap-in within MMC. Guessing that this is where the policies are being picked up and applied to all domain computers. Thanks in advance! KevinC, MCP Tag: SMTP attachment filter Tag: 124784

    - e-mail help I am using SBS2K on a 7 node network. Siince our ISP or web/e-mail host doesn't provide MX records, plus the fact that we can't get any faster than 128K ISDN, I am trying to bypass exchange and use a 3rd party mail server program called workgroup mail pro. I have it set up correctly, but 2 of the client PC's can send and recieve internal and external mail just fine, but the five others cannot. I am using OE on 6 of them and Outlook 2K on the other. All have the same settings and the same software installed. There aren't any error messages, it seems to conect to the servers just fine, its just not pulling any e-mail from the ISP's servers. My server is assigned a static IP but its a DHCP server. I have the server's IP address listed in the POP3 and SMTP address box as the instructions say. I have ISA firewall disabled on all clients, exchange is pretty much disabled. Is using the proxy server for the Internet the problem, going through port 8080? is their a config problem with ISA? I'm clueless about this stuff. Thanks in adv. Dave BTW I will pay someone in the Dallas area with extensive SBS knowledge to "check my work". This is my first SBS install and I have been pulling my hair out. And my client isn't too thrilled either. Contact at davenTAKEOUTTHEBOLDTEXT5150@hotmail.com Tag: SMTP attachment filter Tag: 124783

    - emails not received by exchange server Hi, I've an SBS server and a mac email server. My DNS is hosted on the mac, and on the SBS it's a secondary. On my dns settings I have 2 MX records domain.com MX 10 dns2.domain.com domain.com MX 20 dns.domain.com dns2.domain.com IN A sbs's public ip address dns.domain.com IN A mac server's public ip address When I send emails from external, on my external mail server's log it showed that emails are sent to sbs's ip but inside my exchange I can't seem to see any emails at all. So to test whether was it my DNS settings which is having problems, I stopped the exchange services in sbs and mails start to flow into the mac email server without any problems. So now I suspect its my exchange which is having problems but what problem exactly? Can anyone help me please? Thanks in advance Tag: SMTP attachment filter Tag: 124748

    - Public Folder sync from remote office Hi guys, I have a SBS setup in one state and the remote office in another state which access various programs through TS and a VPN connection. The connection is via ADSL. The remote office also uses isp/pop email directly on their desktops (not through TS) What I want to do is give them access to the shared company address book which is in a public folder on SBS. This should be easy enough through the VPN and it is.. as long as the internet connection in the head office does not go down. So my question is.. what would be the best way to allow them access to a local copy of this address book which is synchronised when they are conncected through the VPN. I suspect I know the answer, but feedback would be appreciated. Thanks Raa Tag: SMTP attachment filter Tag: 124730

    - Software Assurance advice (UK) I wish to buy SBS2000 now and receive a free/discounted upgrade to SBS2003 when it is available. Can anyone confirm the following? To achieve the above I can buy SBS2000 (5 licence) now and pay an additional £99 for SA. This £99 "Guarantees" that I will get a free upgrade to SBS2003 (5 licence) when it is release as long as I purchase it within 2 years of purchasing SBS2000. So effectively all I pay for the upgrade from SBS2000 to SBS2003 is £99 ? Have I got this right? Thanks Paul Tag: SMTP attachment filter Tag: 124729

    - Migration (SBS4.5 -> SBS2K) headaches - Recommendations? I'm in the process of a SBS4.5 to SBS2K migration, and stumbled upon a few issues that I can't seem to find an answer in any faq, article or white paper. Here's my current setup: PDC: SBS4.5 - dual homed, running SQL7, Exchange 5.5, IIS4, VPN (SMTP and PPTP ports open), OfficeScan SBS Member servers: NT4 Server Win2k Server - dual homed, IIS5 (FTP, HTTP and SSL ports open) Win2k Server - SQL2K The dual homed NICs on the PCs are on the DMZ side behind firewall, and SBS is not using MS Proxy Server. What I am trying to accomplish is this: a) Install SBS2K on a new PC with SQL2K, Exchange2K, IIS5, VPN, TM C/S/M Suite (same name as old server, same network addressing scheme - 10.0.0.0/24). This would be a temporary SBS PC. b) Replace the old SBS PC with 1 above to keep users happy and working. c) Upgrade old SBS PC hardware (mainly HD upgrades) d) Reinstall SBS2K on upgraded PC with same services and reimport data Basically I have to do the migration twice, once to a new PC, have it run for a few days while I get the old server upgraded, then reinstall SBS2K on the upgraded PC (this is the one that has RAID, the other PC doesn't). We want to be able to switch back to the old SBS4.5 PC if there is anything wrong with the SBS2K PC. I don't plan on using ISA, since I will be using the firewall as the gateway. Is there any advantage to installing ISA just to protect the SBS PC? Now some of the questions I hope to get answered are: 1a) Is there a way to keep the SMI (Single Message Instance) of Exchange if I am doing a new installation? I've heard rumors of being able to do some inplace upgrade by moving databases from 5.5 to 2000, and using the same PC name, users, etc. Am I dreaming here? I think I'm pretty much stuck with using ExMerge. The reason here is that I know that SBS limits you to an IS of 16GB, which may be exceeded if I move individual mailboxes. 1b) Does an inplace upgrade of SBS4.5 to SBS2K maintain the SMI of Exchange? If so, I can consider doing an inplace upgrade, then backing up the Exchange data to migrate to the new "temp" SBS2K PC (and then doing that again when I need to move the data back into the "real" server). Would this work? 1c) How about a site to site transfer from Exchange 5.5 to Exchange2K while both servers are up? Granted currently both use the same PC name, IP and domain name.. is there a way to do this with SBS and use the Exchange Tasks to do that? At the very worse, I can get around this by doing ExMerge twice.. Once when I go from Exchange 5.5 to 2K on to the "temp" PC, then once again going back to the "real" server. What would people recommend here? 2) Okay, done worrying about Exchange. When I'm ready to get the "real" server back online, and about to take the "temp" SBS PC off, how do I migrate the AD users and groups, permissions to the "real" SBS PC? Both PCs will still be named the same, as well as on the same IP and domain. Don't I need to use ADMT to do something like this? How do I pull this off? (Going to be reorganizing users into different groups than they currently are assigned when installing SBS2K the first time. I don't want to go thru this again when doing the 2nd migration, and I'm not sure how that'll impact the workstations..) Sorry for the mega post.. but I've tried to outline it as best I can to get some answers. ;p Regards. Tag: SMTP attachment filter Tag: 124720

    - hfnetchklt on SBS I am trying to setup something for my clients to manage their server and workstations for updates. The lite version of HFNetChk allows up to 50 computers which is perfect for the SBS network. I know it is recommended to install on a workstation to push the updates as this is what I do on my own network. But can it be installed on the SBS and accessed with Terminal services? I am thinking of installing it on the servers and access it remotely to administer updates. I know that I can probably take control of a workstation also but I didn't want to disrupt someone that might be working on their workstation. Any thoughts? Pros or Cons?

    - <warning venting ahead> End user awareness To whom it may concern: I have a inside mail account and a public mail account [i.e. my pacbell.net account]. I only pull off email from it when I get home at night. Due to the number of SoBig.F, between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. PDT, my 25MB mailbox got full of Sobig messages... I've now increased the mailbox size to 125MB...hopefully that will hold until I can get home. To those unlucky people reading this vent/rant... I'm sorry. Here goes.... a. In this day and age, to SELTZER COMPUTER, PENNY COMPUTER, and the 3 other identifiable computers that are nailing my mailbox with Sobigs, if you can't even get up to date antivirus on your systems, then unplug yourself from the Internet. You are incapable of securing the most basic of computer functions. We MVPS were pinging back and forth and all agreed that most of us are doing a 'every hour on the hour' pull of new updates from the Trend site. If you are only doing a once a day pull... you aren't protected enough. 2. End users.... You ....yes... you there reading this. If you get an email with a .pif attachment.... trust me... it's ALWAYS a virus. Pif files are never sent by "mere mortals wanting to send Word Documents or other sources of vital information needed to do "real work", PIF files are used in the same vein as .exe files and .bat files. Instruct your clients that even if you fail to do #1, that no one who is a sane person should click and launch a .pif file. Furthermore....... 3. You as the IT consultant network admin...yeah you.... PIF files should ALWAYS be be blocked and stripped off of all email files. I've never received a PIF file in that I've truly wanted.... they're always viruses. And if you allow your end users employees to open up PIF files... then do me a favor and before you leave tonight...yank your rj45 cat 5 connection from the wall so that my mailbox doesn't overflow by the morning. We can blame Microsoft for a lot of things..... this one is our stupidity. We don't HAVE to open up every attachment you know....some of them are NOT good. 11 more emails in the 5 minutes I've taken to type this rant/vent up.... 10 of them Sobig.F files. oh I spoke too soon...and another 10 additional emails hit my box.... all 10 out of 10 SoBigs. -- "Don't lose sight of security.

    - ISP Blocking incoming SMTP Exchange Mail This is wacky. We have several clients that have been using SBS2000 SMTP mail with the their ISP connection through Adelphia. Starting last Thursday, none of them were able to receive mail, including my business. Their MX record is forwarded from where their domain is hosted (not Adelphia). Speaking with Adelphia Tech Support (basically useless), they told me they have put a policy in place last Thursday to block mail to port 135 (not sure what that means)becaus of the worm virus. This is what eventually would go to the Exchange portion of the SBS.. Can somthing be changed on the Exchange end?

    - Cannot see shared folders or use outlook after ISA install HELP! Before I installed ISA our users (all on external IPs) accessed our SBS via its external NIC. We were able to use Outlook and access shared folders on the SBS. Today I installed ISA straight from the CD's setup.exe. (I couldn't find an option for it in "Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs -> Add/Remove Windows Components" or in the menu that appears on inserting SBS CD 1.) I also migrated a few machines to the internal network. I've added a packet filter in ISA to allow any protocol in both directions on the external NIC. I've added a protocol rule to allow all protocols to be used by Domain users. WHAT I CAN DO: Use Exchange as per usual via OWA. Ping the IP address of the server. View the server via VNC. WHAT I CAN'T DO: Use Exchange from MS Outlook - emails do not get sent or received. See the server or any other client in Network Neighbourhood. Access any file shares from the server. Ping the server by name. Set the domain for a client - I get the error "The domain name BLANK.BLANK.co.uk is either invalid or does not exist". I have tried using the magic disk but I get the error "The network location cannot be reached... Cannot set computer name BLANK" Could someone please advise me on how to get Outlook and the network shares working? Many thanks Andrew Benjamin Tag: SMTP attachment filter Tag: 124575

    - Slow Performance/Locking Up For no APPARENT reason the server has been moving very slow or locking up. Users are losing connectivity to the file drive randomly. It seems like the more people who log on the more pronounced the problem becomes. Doesn't seem to make sense. It did give me a ring buffer(for the mouse) warning in the event viewer. Could it be memory (chip) related? Any ideas? Tag: SMTP attachment filter Tag: 124574

    - Adding users - more probs, please help! I have tried to follow the instructions in the "How to setup a Windows XP Pro Client in SBS 2000 Network" but I am still having problems.

    - Offline Files/Folders on SBS 2000? Hi, Anyone know why the offline files tab under folder options is not available on Small Business Server 2000? I saw an article on Windows 2000 server that if you run termianl services this tab is unavailable. Does SBS 2000 have Terminal Services, or does it not support the offline files feature? I would like to enable offline files on the SBS 2000 server to sync files with another server? Thanks Tag: SMTP attachment filter Tag: 124558

    - DNS updates Is there any way of speeding up the DNS updates within SBS2K. We have some remote users and use DDNS to connect to these workstations (ftp & remote admin) as their srvice providers will not supply static IP. When the IP changes the DDNS entry is updated almost instantly, & if I ping the DDNS name using a notebook connected directly into our router I can access the site immediately. So the DDNS service & our ISP are doing their job. Problem lies when we try to access it from internal desktops through SBS/ISA, if I ping the DDNS entry the IP address of the remot site could be out of date by as much as a day! So it seems the DDNS tables within ISA do not get constantly updated, more like once a day. Anyone any ideas? Thanks in advance John Tag: SMTP attachment filter Tag: 124550

I set up attachment filters in the ISA server's SMTP
filter, but the blocked attachments are still coming
through.

I blocked by name "*.pif", as well as by extention ".pif"

Any idea what might be amiss ?

TIA

Have you restarted the ISA services?
