    - Total rebuild of SBS2000... I have an SBS 2000 server in bad shape. I am the 4th generation admin on it and I really don't think my predecessors had a clue. I have decided it's time to rebuild it. What I would like to know is how do I preserve the user accounts, shared files, exchange mail and most importantly the Active Directory data? I know I can backup system state data but won't that possibly include messed up Active Directory states/settings? I think I can just do a backup of exchange and import it in to the new server right? I really don't want to have to join the computers to a new domain and migrate profiles so any help would be great. Thanks, Rex Tag: Site to Site VPN in SBS2000 and NG R55 Tag: 171171

    - I can't remember OK. I think that the brain bucket has a huge hole in it. Can anyone tell me why I am not able to connect Outlook 2000 on a WIndows 98 system to my Exchange server. I cannot find the option that allows me to connect to Exchange, just POP/SMTP. I am running SBS2003. Thanks in advance. I know that I should know this one. Sorry.

    - adding another server. Cals question Hi, We are running sbs2000 and are looking to add another server to our domain (win 2003). It will mostly be used for storage purposes etc. We currently have 15 cals for sbs. Is it correct that the server itself takes up one cal, but we don't need to purchase extra cals for each user accessing the new server. Its cals are rolled into the sbs2000 cals. So technically if we have 14 users, 14 cals are taken up by the users and 1 cal is taken by the new server. This means we don't have to buy any cals associated with the win2003 server. (If we needed to buy any cals it would be additional cals for the sbs2000 server). Please let me know if I am wrong. Thanks Tag: Site to Site VPN in SBS2000 and NG R55 Tag: 171147

    - exchange backup getting very large Hi, We are running SBS2000 and are backing up exchange via the NTBackup. I have noticed our backup file is getting very large (> 2GB). We only have 13 users and looking at the mail box size for each user, the total only sums to around 1GB Max. Why is the backup so much larger? Is there any way you can reduce it's size?

    - SBS3000 upgrade stalled due to underscore in netbios domain name It seems what should have been a straightforward upgrade from SBS2000 to SBS2003 is now a nightmare, because of a little underscore in the domain netbios name (VAN_INT). Microsoft allowed this in SBS2000 but is not allowing it in SBS2003 to conform to RFC. Apparently this is a showstopper for the upgrade and next step is to do a fresh install of SBS2003. (which means building AD and Exchange Server again). Does anyone know of a way to get past this (or rename the domain netbios name in SBS 2000)?

    - PC diagnostics utitliy Howdy. I need to get a diagnostics utility. I think that when I worked in a retail repair shop we used one called PC Check (not sure). Is there a decent one out there that is not too pricey that anyone has had luck with? I have a system that has been acting quirky for a while now. I have swapped out parts, etc. but still have not been able to find what the problem is. Don't know how many times I have reloaded Windows. Hoping a diag. can tell me what is happening.

Over the last weekend I had to replace a couple of disks in our sbs2k server in favour of a new hardware raid array. 4 disks in a raid5 config.

    - Change description of Exchange Server Header Hi again, Were using a SBS2K setup. Our incoming faxes are routed (by the administrator) to a public folder. The Incoming Fax subject header has the following description: "Fax server ABC received a new fax from +662 872 5002" I was wondering if there was any way to change the description of the subject header to read something like: "Fax server ABC received a new fax from DEF Company Limited", where the company name is substituted through recognition of the fax number?

    - Exchange 2000 all going to badmail... We have a Windows 2000 Small Business Server that *was* runningInternet Security and Acceleration Server and getting email justfine. After taking ISA out of the picture all incoming email isgoing directly to BadMail and we cannot figure out why. Here's what we did: 1. We unplugged and disabled the WAN adapter. (Internet connection now coming from Enterprise Firewall not ISA.) 2. We ran the Internet Connection Wizard and changed it from a broadband connection to router. We were told that ISA would not be used in this configuration and that made us very happy. 3. It then made the changes to Exchange and ISA and the connection. 4. Next I disabled Microsoft Firewall and the ISA related services. 5. We then changed all the clients on the LAN and things were good as far as getting to the internet but nobody was getting mail. 6. We run ORF and knew it was getting to the server but Message Tracking said it was going to BadMail. 7. At this point we did the exact same thing on the test server we have at another location. Well almost exact. I left the services alone. Everything worked perfectly. 8. So we enabled Microsoft Firewall and the ISA services and still no email. 9. We re-ran the Internet Connection Wizard and still nothing. Presently that's where we are at. We have email being delivered but Message Tracking says it's going right to BadMail. How can we fix this or figure out what the problem is? Thanks, Rex Tag: Site to Site VPN in SBS2000 and NG R55 Tag: 171124

    - Physically moving SBS2000 to newer motherboard setup (drives and nics) I know this may sound like a stupid question, but before I attempted it, I thought I would find out what the majority thought. I'm currently running an sbs2000 machine on an old PIII motherboard. The scsi drives it resides on are fairly new and would not need to be replaced. What I would like to do, is lift the drives which contain all the sbs information and put them into a new machine (motherboard and cpu's). Is it possible to just take the existing hard drives and put them in the mix on the new motherboard without losing the already provisioned 2 nic setup? Will the drives operate as normal on the new motherboard setup? I'm guessing not, but this would be nice if I could just take the drives out and install them in the new box and have it just fire right up. If I have left out any info, please ask away, I'd be happy to include more information. TIA Tag: Site to Site VPN in SBS2000 and NG R55 Tag: 171118

    - Spam Our outgoing email suddely stopped a couple of days ago. After a lot of head scratching I discovered 6000 emails in the outbound smtp queue, mostly from someone I had never heard of. After deleating this lot it left 19 genuine emails which have now gone out. Is exchange bright enough to spot that it was full of spam and stopped sending? It's SBS 2003. Now I have to find which machine has been generating the spam. Thankfully there are only 15 to go at! Simon Tag: Site to Site VPN in SBS2000 and NG R55 Tag: 171082

    - Trouble Removing Client Computers After disconnecting a PC from our network for rebuilding I'm having trouble removing that PC from inside the Administrator Console under / Small Business Server / Shares (Local) / Computers. The computer name is listed but when I select it, right click and select 'Remove Client Computer' I get an error that basically says 'That computer does not exist on the network'. How do I remove it (the PC name) from the list? Do I have to remove it before I actually disconnect the PC from the network? Thanks for any help!

    - Problem with Backup Hello, SBS2K. Back when I originally set up an SBS, I wrote a script that ran the imbedded MS backup program to back up the entire system each evening. The script then emails me the log file so I can see how the backup went. After working without a problem for almost 3 years, I got the following message in the log from last night's run: Error: You do not have permission to access portions of System State\Registry\software. Please see the owner or administrator to get permission. Warning: Unable to open the file \Registry\software - skipped. Backup completed on 2/22/2005 at 2:19 AM. Directories: 335 Files: 2401 Skipped: 1 Bytes: 510,611,337 Time: 10 minutes and 34 seconds Of course, the part of the message I am asking about is the first three lines about the permission problem. I wrote the script to run under the Administrator account. What could be the problem with this system state area of the backup. I cant think of anything I had done in the past few days that would effect the backup. Is there anything I can do to find out what's wrong? I appreciate the help. Thanks, Chris Tag: Site to Site VPN in SBS2000 and NG R55 Tag: 171069

    - FYI - MUP.SYS Howdy. This is not a question but an informative post in the hopes that it helps someone else in the future. My parent's computer was heavily infested with spyware including the TIBS dialer. They had been complaining that the system had not been working well for a while so I tried to clean it. Ended up just backing up their data and starting over from scratch. FDISKed and Formatted with a 98 boot disk first and then reloaded their XP Pro with NTFS file system. This is a system that I built them with AMD Processor and Gigabyte MB. It worked great until I took it to their house and started installing their new USB2 card and printer. The system started hanging. Tried to reboot and it would not go past the MUP.SYS file. I googled this and found as many answers as people having this problem. I did the normal troubleshooting (removing pieces a bit at a time, etc.). I noticed that many of the fixes on google had to do with the system BIOS. I Unplugged the computer and removed the BIOS battery for 45 seconds. Replaced the battery. Accepted the default BIOS settings and everything is working fine now. I don't know if this will help anyone else but just wanted to put it out there. Thanks for your time and all of the great help that I have received here.

    - MTADATA & MDBDATA I have not been able to get approval to spend the money on the Exchange and SQL agents for our backup software so I have been using the native backup in SBS2003. This means that the log files are piling up in Exchange. Is there any safe way to clean up the MTADATA & MDBDATA folders until I can get those agents? Thanks.

    - 2k Migration Pack Moving from Multiple SBS domains and exchange organsiations to a new 2003 AD single Exchange infrastructure Hi can anyone tell me if the 2k Migration Pack is still available from MS for SBS 2000 I have a consolidation operation consisting of some 7 companies to a new organisation and a number are running SBS 2000. Shared Fax SQL ISA with a separate DNS namespace etc.. My view was to purchase the migration pack for each affected site and the required number or cals then perfrom the migration, and split off the required services, adding hardware I would then look to upgrading to Windows 2003 move to a new single AD domain and maintain central and site based services while performing hosting and routing for the old domains Anyone know if this is an allowed upgrade path TIA Rgds Steve_S Tag: Site to Site VPN in SBS2000 and NG R55 Tag: 171059

    - event ID 1002, 9004, 1005 I am having trouble getting my exchange to start up. The last thing I rember doing prior to it not working was a windows update. These 3 errors come up every time the server is started and no one can send or receive email. From researching the error, I have removed and reinstalled both IIS and Exchange. During the exchange reinstall an error came up saying to consult Q266418 at support.microsoft.com. From this I have concluded that one of the update put Outlook Express on my server. I cannot find a way to remove or unistall. It does not show up under the programs add/remove from the control panel. Here are the errors from my event log: Metabase Update agent failed to start. Error code is 80040a01. For more information, click http://www.microsoft.com/contentredirect.asp. All 3 events show this same error. Can anyone help me resolve this?

    - Need faster connection Hello all and thanks for all of the good advise that has been dispensed before. I would like some advice from some gurus that have dealt with this more than me. I have VPN set up and can connect great but many things do not work well more than likely due to slow upload through my ADSL connection. What would be a good upgrade in connection to make VPN work better. The users would like to access files on their server based folders, they time out opening Excel docs now. I have an SBS2003 2 nic set up with approx 30 users. I have 6 users that are now working remotely. So what would be a good way to go? T1, ISDN, mental telepathy? Thanks in advance.

    - ISA Question A vendor wants me to add the following to our ISA to allow updates for their particular software package. From what I can gather is that this will allow port 80 & 443 traffic inbound to any internal computer that establishes the connectionâ?¦. Or will this allow any port 80 443 traffic in (even if itâ??s not requested from an internal host). Any help is greatly appreciated! Thx. 1. Create protocol rule, http request, direction inbound and outbound, rule applies to all IP traffic any RCP server. 2. Open an IP packet filter name it Lacerte, action, allow direction inbound, filter type HTTP server, port 80, remote computer any protocol TCP 3. Open a second IP packet filter name it Lacerte 2, same as everything in #2 except filter type is HTTPS, port 443. Tag: Site to Site VPN in SBS2000 and NG R55 Tag: 171025

    - No OWA outside of office Good day, I'm trying to get OWA to work from outside the office and am unable to do so (internally no problem.) This is our setup: 1) Two Nics, a dynamic IP address, ISA, router http://www.smallbizserver.net/Default.aspx?tabid=50 2) OWA without SSL http://www.smallbizserver.net/Default.aspx?tabid=82 3) Our ISP gives us a dynamic IP so I am using a dynamic DNS service (DynDNS.org) for IP/DNS resolution from outside the office. We have support built in at the router for dynamic dns. Upon entering the URL in the web browser, for example, http://domain.dnsalias.com/exchange, I get a 'page cannot be displayed' message in IE.

    - Problem accessing SQL2k server outside SBS2k network Hope someone can help me with this. Recently (sometime in the past 3 weeks) I have had trouble accessing a SQL server that's held outside my network (on Fasthosts UK servers). I keep getting a "server not found" message. I've tried with a direct dial out to the interent and i can get access, but when i try to access it via SBS2k server it can't find the SQL2k server. I've opened ports TCP 1433 and UDP 1434 in ISA server but this has not made any diffrence, (i've also stopped the ISA service on the server and this also has not made any diffrence.) The reson i think it is the SBS server is the fact if i connect the machine to a phone line and dial out using the same ISP I can find and get connected to the SQL server. When i use the DTS package to connect to the SQL server i get the following error: Error Source : microsoft SQL-DMO (ODBC SQLState:08001) Error Discription : Unable to connect to source server for transfer. [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.

    - Many logon "failures" ??? Recently, while troubleshooting an issue I was havng, I turned on the logging of Log-On failures on our Win2K SBS machine. I was able to find the answer to my problem but have noticed a ton of logon failures being generated. This must be having some impact on the performance of our machine - not to mention I can not understand why I am getting all of these - some I can understand but others I cannot. For example, at 6:12 am today, there are 12 event log # 676 all logged for the exact same user and same machine. The error desc was an "Authentication ticket request failed". If I scroll down the log a bit further, I will find yet another 12 entries for the same machine and user - exact same error. I see this for a few different users. I know they are not here becuase it is the middle of the night. Clearly, something else must be trying to use their credentials for something??? Here is an example of the message description for the 676 error I am seeing... Authentication Ticket Request Failed: User Name: <user or computer name> Supplied Realm Name: <domain name> Service Name: krbtgt/<domain name> Ticket Options: <options> Failure Code: <hex failure code> Client Address: <ip address> One of the failure codes I am seeing is a 0x12 - which has to do with the time restrictions. Since these are happening in the middle of the night when no one would be logging on, wehat else is trying to log on???? Any help in troubleshooting this would be appreciated!!
