    - Changed User Name, BE8.6 doesn't backup her mailbox Hi, Running SBS2000, fully patched. User got married and I changed her last name in the users area of the SBS (Back Office Manager) from the SBS Admin Console. Also changed her initials and alias (and everything I could change on the user properties tabs). Everything is working fine (she can logon, she's getting e-mail, has access to her files, everything says the new name) but BE 8.6 is not backing up the new mailbox. When I look at Mailboxes under Mailbox Store under the First Storage Group, her mailbox is listed by her new name. When I look at the list of mailboxes in the selections area of BE8.6, it lists the correct mailbox name but that has the *old* initials in brackets. The BE log says the mailbox cannot be found and refers to the initials. There's an option in the BE selections window for the "text version" and it appears that I can edit the initials to reflect the new initials. However, I did this name change with very little research (5 minutes of Google groups searching) and thought I'd ask the experts here before I proceed further. :) Should I do the text edit? Is there a way to force BE to refresh the initials to the correct initials? Something else? John Tag: Spam Tag: 137503

    - SBS 2000 REPLACEMENT TO A NEW HARDWARE I am running a SBS server 2000 on a an older hardware and hence I want to move it to a new better server. This is the master domain server in the network. (I have one mor file server-another domain controller-not an exchange server-THIS SERVER HAS THE USER PROFILES) I was thinking to do the follwoing : 1.) build a new server with exact server name, dns etc (only thing different will be bigger hardrives; raid 5 instead of mirror) 2)Then restore (using disater recovery switch) system state and Storage group(mailboxes) to the new server from a back from the old server 3.) Then unplug the old server put in the new server. USING DISASTER RECOVERY SWITCH, WILL IT DESTROY THE NEW MACHINE??? OR 1.) build a new server with exact server name, dns etc (only thing different will be bigger hardrives; raid 5 instead of mirror) 2) CREATE ALL USERS EXACTLY IN AD ( I HAVE ONLY 20 USERS) WITH EXCHANGE MAILBOXES. COPY THE OLD MAILBOXES FROM THE OLD SERVER 3)Then unplug the old server put in the new server, CONNECT ALL CLIENTS Will this work? What are the things I am missing Detailed help is appreciated. thanks sam Tag: Spam Tag: 137501

    - Strange OWA Problem OK OWA used to work fine. Trying to use it now after long dormant period (i.e. have installed loads of service packs since it was last used so cant narrow probelm down to a service pack install). Anyone who is a member of the administrators group can use it fine, either remotely or while on the network. However, for anyone not in this group it will not work at all, it just keeps prompting for the password 3 times and freezes (all the menu icons are displayed properly but no inbox displayed) I have made sure that its just Anon and Basic authentication enabled in IIS. The weird thing is that if I add an affected user into the administrators group it works fine - indicationg that perhaps it's a permission problem, but even wierder still, when I then take them out of admin group, it still works fine! Anyone got any ideas? Tag: Spam Tag: 137484

    - Security Groups On a fresh SBS 2000 box that will replace our old one, I want to assign security groups. There will ultimately be three types of security groups: high, med, low - where the high group will allow users to have full Admin access to their machines, med will have semi-admin access and low will be no admin rights at all. Currently, we do not use security groups on the SBS domain. All I do is take off Local Admin rights for each user - so they cannot install/uninstall programs, move files into the System/WINNT folders or change the clock. Some software needs registry tweaks for it to work under these conditions. I want to deploy these three groupings (or maybe just two - high and low), where I will assign myself "high" (as I constantly add/remove software from my machine) and "low" to all users so that they cannot do anything! How do I set up these groupings and the necessary tasks before I add the users one-by-one to AD and assign them to the groups. I need step-by-step help as I have not done this before. skc Tag: Spam Tag: 137481

    - Administrator not administrator I am currently setting up a new SBS 2000 box remotely before I deploy it on our current SBS 2000 Domain. The new SBS 2000 box is identical in it;s functionality, but it has the all important RAID5 redundancy and has a better spec. I have installed SBS 2000, and I am now patching up the whole machine using Windows Update. I will also run SP1a for SBS 2000. What I want to do now is make the Administrator user not Administrator, but to set up a new user that will be Administrator. This is for security, as I know that a lot of people do this, as Administrator as a Username is 50% of the way of cracking the password anyway. How is this done? Do I make a new user in AD on the new SBS and assign the same "Member Of" components to this user and then disable the user "Administrator"? I can then log the server on as this new Administrator knowing that the Username is not Administrator. Am I going along the right tracks...I need advice!! Thanks. Tag: Spam Tag: 137480

    - Add Exchange to SBS2000 domain Hi everyone, I'm having big problems installing Exchange on to my SBS2k domain, and I'm currently pondering suicide :-) I am trying to move Exchange from SBS on to a new Win2k server in a data-center (i.e. on to a new server, running a full-blown copy of Exchange). I have created a new administrative group (i.e. a seperate admin group from the 'first storage group'), and the plan is now to install the new Exchange server here, and copy the mail boxes across. I understand that when you install Exchange you should be prompted, and asked which Organisation and administrative group you want to install within. For some reason I am not - the install runs through and the server does not appear in the administrative group I have created. Please Help!!! Any advice or pointers would be much appreciated. TIA, Stuart Arnold Tag: Spam Tag: 137475

    - Adding SBS Client apps to a TS This is a bit of a repost, so I apologize up front for that. I'm trying to install the client apps for SBS (firewall client and IE) onto a Terminal Server. I added the SBS_LOGIN_SCRIPT.bat to the profile tab and told SBS to install the apps to the TS. When I log in under the TSAdmin account, there is an extremely short flash of the SBS script window (the minimized command prompt window) and then it runs the rest of the scripts I have. The SBS apps don't install. Am I misunderstanding the directions or the results? Here is the procedure I am following: To add a TSAdmin user account: 1.. From Small Business Server 2000, open Control Panel, and then click Administrative Tools. 2.. Click Active Directory Users and Computers, and then click Domain Users. ==>(Domain Users isn't a group, but Users is, and I assume this is what they mean) 1.. From the Microsoft Management Console window that appears, click Action, and then click New User. 2.. Name the user TSAdmin, and type in a unique password. 3.. On the remaining screens, use the default settings, except for Logon Script on the Profile screen. This field must contain the following: SBS_LOGIN_SCRIPT.bat ==>(There is no space in the new user setup to place this script pointer in, so I added it after the user was created under the profile tab) This ensures that the client installation program runs properly when you log on to the Terminal Server as the TSAdmin user. ==>(I set the TSAdmin user as a Domain Admin member and went to the SBS Personal Console and told it to install IE and the firewall client to the TS, but to no avail.) Any direction to investigate would be appreciated. Thank you. Tag: Spam Tag: 137465

    - SBS Office 2000 and Printer Lock-Up Hi. We've got a LAN with 8 workstations plus server running SBS2000. We have 3 printers on network and up until yesterday, all worked fine. Yesterday a user at a workstation sent a print job to the newest networked printer (HP Laserjet 4100). The job does not appear to have ever reached the printer itself (i.e. the printer is not acknowledging receiving any data and has no job to cancel). The job is, however, clogging up the print que. We have tried to cancel/delete the job, from both the user who created it's workstation and the server. Both attempts appear to be successful (i.e. no error message), and the job's status changes to "deleting", but it doesn't ever delete (over 24 hours now). We have tried uninstalling that printer from that workstation and reinstalling, which works, but when reinstalling, the subject bad job is still in que (under status "deleting"). We have tried deleting and/or uninstalling the subject printer from the server, which again appears to work (status of printer changes to "Deleting") but the printer never gets deleted. We're at wits end! Have searched net but could not find any information. Any help would be greatly appreciated. If you could cc: any responses to mcpineny[nospam] @netscape.net (without the text: "[nospam]") it would be doubly appreciated. Best regards. Tag: Spam Tag: 137454

    - How does the CAL licensing thing work? Would someone explain to me how this CAL licensing things works for SBS 2000 or 2003? I'm gonna have two persons accessing Exchange on it, so obvioulsy I need 2 CALs. How about me, the admin, do I need a CAL for myself? What if I setup an ftp server on it, do I need a CAL for absolutely anyone who accesses the ftp server? Cause that makes no sense. Or are CALs used only when someone logs onto the domain? Any other access to the server is not counted as a CAL? Does SBS actually know how many CALs you have and prevents anyone from accessing it if you exceed it or is it just MS lawyers that do?

    - Remote Access to SBS W2K Exchange Server Hi all, I am hoping that someone can help me. I have implemented SBS W2K and all is well. MS Exchange is currently configured to collect POP3 mail for our domain and this also works OK. We are on an ADSL line with a fixed IP address. There are an increasing number of users based overseas who need to access the server for their emails. Although they can use the Outlook Web Mail interface via a browser window I am wondering if there may be a better way of letting them collect their mail straight into their MS Outlook win32 client. Is there a way of achieving this short of implementing a VPN, eg: remote users collecting their mail via a POP3 connection to the server (this way they will also receive internally sent mail as opposed to creating a email forwarder at the ISP that they could collect from). Any suggestions or comments on possibilities or best practices much appreciated. Thank you in advance, Simon Tag: Spam Tag: 137442

    - Active Directory Migration Tool (ADMT) I was looking to move user profiles and their computers from an NT domain to SBS2K. The ADMT looks like the perfect tool except for the premise that they expect you to incrementally move users over to AD while allowing access to resources in both domains. This requires a trust - which SBS cannot allow. I just want to move user profiles over but the SID issue is a problem. I don't need to have users gain access to both domains, I can move everyone in one shot. Has anyone attempted the ADMT method on an SBS without involving trusts? Does anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks, Buddy Tag: Spam Tag: 137404

    - Bogged Down SBS2k Server, no Resources Constrained: Virus? I have SBS 2k setup with a 2-NIC setup (perm connection via a T1.) I am running Trend's OfficeScan. Starting this Monday, with all clients powered off, everything is fine. With some XP clients started, the server is way bogged down: web surfing via the proxy is slow, connection to NT Shares slow, Outlook on clients slow, even circling the mouse on the actual server hangs up like it's at 100% utilization. I only have about 10 clients. But, no resources are being constrained. Plenty of mem free, CPU% at about 10-20%. No disk queueing. Only clue I have is that a couple of the XP clients (as seen with Netmon on the server) are doing continous ICMP's to addresses in incrementing order (ie 207.100.25.101, 207.101.25.102, 207.100.245.103, etc.). Seems very strange. One PC will do this, even with all (apparant) apps off and mappings off. NOTE: Addresses given in example are fake. The addresses the pc's are going after do not reolve with NSlookup. Do I have a virus problem that OfficeScan is not picking up? Do I have a worm or SpyWare? The network is basically useless when all the people are on. . . . . Help! Tag: Spam Tag: 137341

I get messages like the following: DNS does not exist (error code 0x0000232B RCODE_NAME_ERROR); the query was for the SRV record in .... (I checked the query lisitng, and it seemed to be correct). I have tried DHCP, static IP,etc. How is the domain name supposed to be input? (domain name) or (domain name.local)? I checked my WINS data and for my server it lists 1 record (01h - Other) at the current servers correct "internal" NIC's IP, another record (03h - Messenger)is set to the servers "external" NIC's IP (192.x.x.x), and one record (20h - File Server) at a different address (10.x.x.100) THIS may be the culprip, I'm thinking (I changed the server IP after initial setup from the 100 to the 101 address. Any thoughts? I would appreciate them!!! Tag: Spam Tag: 137287

    - RIS FAILED RECENTLY ON TWO DIFFERENT SITES: NTLDR is corrupt. The system cannot boot. RIS has been working ok, now there's suddenly problems. Installation begins normally but right after login part, when the actual installation is supposed to start, an error displays: NTLDR is corrupt. The system cannot boot. This is happening on two different sites. The other is SBS2000, other plain Win srv2003. Both clients are WinXP SP1a Finnish. No changes have been made to RIS, only windows update. In both cases app log show following warning: Event Type: Warning Event Source: BINLSVC Event Category: None Event ID: 1101 Date: 22.10.2003 Time: 19:51:49 User: N/A Computer: XXXX Description: An error occurred during parsing of an INF file netclass.inf in the given section Manufacturer. For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp. Data: 0000: 02 01 00 e0 Is this some magical MS patch work or have I just done something wrong?

    - More than one server with SBS? We are an engineering design firm that uses a very large number of vendor catalogs and selection software. I've grown past weary of trying to keep all my client machines current with piles of typically poorly written software. I'd like to consolidate all this.....well, lets call it 'stuff' to be polite...onto one machine. I'm supposing a Windows 2000 Server Machine running Terminal Services is exactly what I want to do. My questions begin here: 1. Can a Windows 2000 Server running terminal services coexist in a SBS2000 Domain? 2. My W2K clients all have a TS license built in. Do I need to buy additional CAL's for the periodic connection to the W2K Server on top of the SBS? On average I should have no more than 5 people connected to the terminal server at one time. 3. Can this server talk to the SBS? IE, can I save documents to a project directory on the SBS and print to printers on the SBS? I'm not looking for people to have to waste their time trying to set it up for me, I just want to know if its possible before I start investing money into the project. Thanks everyone.

    - Migration to new SBS 2000 Help!! Hi, We have been running SBS2000 for around 2 years now where we have recently decided to upgrade our current Dell PE2500 due to redundancy reasons. The new Dell PE2600 has a RAID-5 array (PERC4), x3 36GB SCSI HDD, x2 NICs for LAN and WAN. We ordered the box from Dell with no OS, as there was no point considering that we had all the CDs and licencing for the old SBS2000 anyway. At the moment, the old SBS is being used as a Domain Controller, Email server (Exchange 2000), Web proxy (ISA 2000) via a 24/7 ADSL line, and runs the Symantec Corp Edition that protects and updates the server as well as all of the clients. The new SBS will take over the roll, as it will be much more powerful with RAID-5 redundancy (in case of a HDD crash). We already have a deployed fileserver on the network where I have configured the SBS logon script to map client drives to the fileserver. This is currently working quite well. We just had the new SBS Dell 2600 machine delivered, and I need some pointers as to how to set it up. I have been reading the Microsoft Small Business Server 2000 Migration Upgrade White Paper quite carefully, but I need some questions answered as well as comments on my method of approach. 1. Upon powering up the new Dell, it asked for the OpenManage CD as there was no OS installed out the factory. I loaded the CD, and it gives me a wizard. I am on step 2 or 3 where it asks me for the OS partition size. Can I specify 20GB instead of the normal 8 or 12GB on a typical RAID-5 array? The reason being, is that we are running anti-virus software that creates a quarantine folder on the C drive, and this is currently causing us problems on the current SBS. What limit is there on partition size for SBS 2000 sitting on Windows 2000 Server? 2. Page 4 suggests that I need to create new accounts on the new SBS 2000 machine: security groups, user accounts, mailboxes, computer accounts. Is there a way of getting these from the old SBS (export wizard?) or do I have to write-down each item and re-create it on the new SBS? What about SSID? Is it the case of simply recreating these objects in AD or are there any other things that need to be done? 3. It mentioned the configuration of ICW. We have two users setup who are allowed remote access (VPN). Does this need to be done in ICW or just in the user's account in AD? 4. The old SBS has a static IP address of 192.168.16.2 which I will re-use for the new one as well. All the clients are dynamic and assigned IP addresses via DHCP. Do I need to do anything to DHCP to recreate this, or do I just hardcode the 192.168.16.2 for the LAN adaptor of the new SBS and that is all? 5. For Exchange 2000, I need to create the mailboxes on the new SBS 2000 and Exmerge data out of the old SBS onto the new SBS. Can I create the new mailboxes using the add new user wizard in backoffice, as this adds the user to AD and has the wizard for creating new mailboxes 6. I intend to change the emails for the company, where currently it is <firstname>@domain.com. If I make the emails <firstname>.<lastname>@domain.com, then will this be quite easy? This is because we recently employed another John, which clashed with an existing John@domain.com. We pick up our email via POP3 at the ISP, so I will also have to leave the <firstname>@domain.com for a few weeks so that all external recipients are fully aware of the new email policy. 7. P12 suggests that I need to configure the ISA Server Local Address Table.what does this mean? Where can I find this out on the old SBS? Please help!!! Thanks. skc Tag: Spam Tag: 137244

    - Instant messaging I've enabled this service for all users on SBS, where do I get the client software from ? Ta Tag: Spam Tag: 137239

Currently I am using GFI for spam control. I install the demo just to see
how it works and was wondering if there are any other spam softwares out
there that are equal to GFI just to compare features.....
