    - Repost: Router on Internal LAN range - need to use AS WELL as ISA... Hi all, Hopefully not too strange a query here. We have a nice working SBS2000 set-up here, Internet connection via 2nd NIC and Broadband Router. We also have a PBX which also acts as a Router and also provides some nice CTI functionality. Query is this: We [or more specifically certain users on the LAN] need to be able to route out via the PBX's integral router to certain customer sites. To access the full CTI functionality of the PBX we need the PBX sitting on our INTERNAL LAN range. By default obviously, any packets not destined for the internal LAN get routed outwards by the Server - hence no routing to clients via the PBX... What I've done thus far is this: 1] Moved the PBX to our internal LAN [was previously sitting between the external NIC and the Broadband Router - worked fine in that set-up but less CTI functionality] and assigned it a fixed IP address on our LAN which is reserved in the DHCP set-up on the SBS box. In the Router config on the PBX I've entered a default route pointing at the Server's internal NIC address so that any packets not for any of the PBX defined routes/addresses get passed to the SBS box. 2] This has enabled the full CTI side - so far, so good 3] Re-ran the ICW and Internet access is working fine from both Server and LAN clients 4] I've also amended the DHCP scope to have the PBX/Router as another Router and moved this to be first in the list of router addresses provided via DHCP 5] From a standalone laptop without the ISA client, I can route to clients via the PBX no problem - so it *appears* that the DHCP/routing side is working fine 6] From LAN clients we *can* now ping remote clients using the PBX router, whilst still having full Internet access via ISA and our broadband connection 7] However, from my PC with the ISA client I cannot route via the PBX using the PBX management software 8] If I connect a standalone laptop to our LAN side as a DHCP client, I *can* use the PBX management software and route via the PBX router - only change is that it does not have the ISA firewall client installed I *think* that the ISA client *appears* to be the likely thing I need to configure somehow but I'm unsure how to do so - can anyone provide any pointers? What I want [ideally] is to have all packets from any LAN clients going to the PBX/Router initially and if they're destined for one of the remote clients on that side, get routed by the PBX. If not, the packets should be forwarded to the SBS box and dealt with as normal. Or is what we're trying to achieve impossible? Thanks in advance, David Tag: Upgrade RC copy Tag: 144368

    - Email address issue I have setup a new SBS 2000 to replace our old SBS 2000. At the moment the box sits on an isolated network with the same credentials as the old SBS - same servername, same Domain name, etc... So far I have only installed SBS2000 and I am currently service packing the machine and installing Outlook 2002 for client deployement. I have not yet configured the POP3 connector for Exchange with our ISPs details. What I have noticed is that when I add a new user, his/her email address becomes <username>@<domain>.local instead of <username>@<wwwdomainname>.co.uk. Have I done something wrong here? Furthermore, when I right-click the user>Properties>Email Addresses, the users only have: SMTP: <username>@<domain>.local X400: c=us;a= ;p=<DOMAIN>;o=Exchange.......... On the old SBS, the user has two SMTP addresses, the second one being the public email address so POP3 mail can go to that person: e.g. <username>@<wwwdomainname>.co.uk Please can you tell me where I configure this.

    - HP8150 printer loosing connection to SBS2K after paper jam Hi, We've the same problem on several installations; LJ8150DN (with a JetDirect card) configured with a fixed IP address and connected to SBS2K server with all the latest patches and drivers. Usually after a paper jam or format mismatch, the printer stops printing and is indicated as 'not ready' on server printer page and the only way to get it printing again is by restarting the spooler on the server - otherwise the printer works fine and we don't have the same problem with other printers on network. HP suggests using their "Install Network Printer Wizard (INPW)" on server (if printing from server is required) and workstations and creating HP Standard TCP/IP port as opposed to a Windows TCP/IP port and printing directly to this port from workstations. If I remember correctly there were a lot of issues using HP software on SBS4.5 so I'm a bit reluctant to using HP software. Has anybody else used INPW successfully on SBS2K server and workstations without any conflicts? Any suggestions or solutions would be greatly appreciated. Irshad Tag: Upgrade RC copy Tag: 144349

We have problems passing our firewall Our office network is using an Cisco 827 ADSL router, with firewall and intrusion detection. Traffic then goes to the outer NIC of our Microsoft Small Business Server that runs MS ISA Server 2000. The internal NIC on that server is connected to a Dell Gigabit switch that serves the LAN.

    - Why are some performance counters disabled in SBS? Hi I'm trying to use some software called Monitor Magic to keep an eye on my customers servers. It works but I get bombed with warnings in the application event log. The error is Perflib #2001 and the message is: The "MSSCNTRS" service does not have a Performance subkey or the key could not be opened. No performance counters will be collected for this service. The Win32 error code is returned in the data. There's another with the same details but for MSExchangeIS Looking into this using Knowledge Base I suspect that it is because SBS has registry keys in: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Current_Control_Set\Services\MSSCNTRS\Disable_Performance_Counters = 1 and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Current_Control_Set\Services\MSExxchangeIS\Disable_Performance_Counters = 1 Can anyone tell me why? Is it safe to switch these off by changing the setting to 0? Any help would be appreciated Thanks Shane Tag: Upgrade RC copy Tag: 144344

It seems to send to all domains except this particular one although our pop3 and smtp hosts say there is no problem with other customers sending to this domain.There are no filters which would block this domain and although I suspect it to be an authentication problem I cannot find where the problem is. The e-mails end up queued in the smtp queue on our server with a blue arrow beside it and on looking at the properties it says "SMTP prorocol error" Any ideas Brian Tag: Upgrade RC copy Tag: 144334

    - Outlook Install problems I'm having problems reinstalling Outlook 2002 on SBS2000 client machines. Background: I originally installed SBS2000 and setup the (WinXP Pro) clients and installed Outlook 2002 at that time. Had problems with the server and had to completely rebuild it. Temporarily rolled back the clients (but did not uninstall Outlook) in the meantime. Later when the server was rebuilt, I uninstalled Outlook from two clients and then ran the setup disk, but Outlook would not install even though it is listed in Add/Remove programs. Performing a Repair or Reinstall did not fix the problems. On the remaining clients I did not uninstall Outlook before rerunning the client setup disk and had no problems other than having to manually create the Outlook profiles. Have tried running the installation by manually connecting to the share on the SBServer and running setup and also from the CD. In both cases when I get to the page listing the programs to be installed Outlook has a red "X" next to it and is listed as "Unavailable". Does anyone have any ideas how I can get Outlook installed on these computers? Andy Nestor Tag: Upgrade RC copy Tag: 144277

    - Backup dhcp server & SBS recovery This week had the misfortune to have two mirrored disks in a SBS2000 server fail thus rendering the server u/s. I had another W2K server configured as a domain controller to authenticate users however the main issue was that I didnt have a backup for the dhcp server so clients could not get the correct IP address allocation. Any ideas on how to set this up would be appreciated. For those who have not ventured down the SBS recovery route yet, I restored the server from tape using backup Exec 8.5 and the procedure listed on the veritas web site for manual recovery. I already had this to hand in my disaster recovery procedures. The only issue that was not listed was the SFN problem (again I was aware and had supporting documentation to hand) which I resolved by re-installing affected applications + patches.

These were: c:\progra~1\common~1\micros~1\triedit\triedit.dll c:\progra~1\veritas\backup~1\nt\shuie.dll c:\winnt\$ntser~1\idq.dll c:\winnt\$ntserv~1\webhits.dll c:\winnt\$n6bec~1\idq.dll c:\winnt\servic~1i386\webhits.dll c:\winnt\system32\dllcache\ieshwiz.exe c:\winnt\system32\dllcache\perform.exe c:\winnt\system32\dllcache\triedit.dll c:\winnt\system32\idq.dll c:\winnt\system32\ieshwiz.dll c:\winnt\system32\perfmon.dll c:\winnt\system32\webhits.dll I am note sure whether to try and restore these files from backup, from the MS cd or what. As they are in qhat I consider to be quite significatn folders i am wary about just ignoring this. Any ideas opr advice please Harry Tag: Upgrade RC copy Tag: 144222

    - SUS installation - initial mirror question Hi SBS2000 SP4, SUS SP1 I am running SUS on my server. I'd like to roll it out to my end users & many of them including myself, use a 56k modem for Internet access. This makes the initial SUS mirror take about 3 days. (In my rural location, a 56k modem runs at 28k!) Is there a way that I can upload the initial CAB files by CD? I can see the \sus\content\cabs directory but there are also other directories which may include details which should also be copied. Regards Nick Tag: Upgrade RC copy Tag: 144193

    - SMTP Delivery to AOL Hi All We have SBS2k with SMTP setup to deliver directly to the recipients email address this works fine. The problem we have is AOL will not take mail from directly our server so I setup another SMTP for delivery of AOL email to relay to our ISP mail server. This worked for one day & with no other changes to the setup AOL mail is now trying to go out by our SMTP not the new relay? Is their a way to force the AOL mail to be routed to the new relay SMTP to our ISP mail server? -- Regards Simon Hardstaff --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

    - XP Workstations running S-L-O-W OK, I'm at my wits end and tried just about everything suggested in the Knowledge base. 5 Windows XP workstations take between 8 and 15 seconds to open Word and Excel documents, which all other machines open near- instantaneously. The docs were created in Office 97 and all machines are now running Office XP, and the NT/2000 machines are fine, just the 5 new XP CAD stations. I've disabled Oplocks, I've installed SP's and hot fixes, disabled kernal mode filter driver for Backup Exec and McAfee, lots of re-boots and no difference. Performance profiling shows that the workstation is 99% idle, no network traffic, just waiting for the server to respond. Server: Intel Vero Beach, Dual Xeon HT, 1024 GB, 1Gbit backbone, raid. Workstations: Tyan Thunder, Dual Athlon 2400, 2048MB, 3Com 10/100, Quadro FX, uSCSI. All latest drivers and patches. The users of these stations are all local administrators, and I've even tried upping them to domain admins. HELP!!!! John Bilton Tag: Upgrade RC copy Tag: 144171

    - Antivirus Exclusions I have just installed Panda Antivirus on my server and want to be sure I have excluded all files and directories that should not be scanned. I found knowledgebase article 328841: Exchange and Antivirus Software. This takes care of the Exchange components. What about Windows 2000 and ISA? I also came across article 822158: Virus Scanning Recommendations on a Windows 2000 Domain Controller. I cannot find any recent references to this article in the newsgroup though. Should I follow these guidelines and make the registry changes? I thought the recycle bin is ususally excluded from virsu scanning. If there are any knowledgebase articles I am overlooking please let me know. Thank You, Don Tag: Upgrade RC copy Tag: 144161

    - Crash A client has just had some lightning damage on his network. His server is also misbehaving now (not sure yet if hardware is too blame, yet). The server hangs at the "network connections" splash screen. Removing the NIC does not help. It wont start in safe mode. I have just done a repair from the installation CD to no avail. Are there any other methods of diagnosing before we pull all the hardware to pieces? There is no visible lightning damage on the server. Thnx. Tag: Upgrade RC copy Tag: 144159

    - Backup problem (repost) Trying to backup to a tape drive (Seagate STT3401A/Travan Tape) via microsoft backup. Get this message: Required Media Missing There is no unused media available with the selected type. Add unused media or click Cancel to select another type. (Note: It may take 60 seconds for removable storage to recognise new media) This is a first backup routine. In the MS Backup wizard I have two options in the Backup Destination field: "Travan" and "miniQIC" and have tried both. Under Backup Media or File Name Field only have "New Media". Checked Device Manager and it says Tape Drive is working. Looked at Help and have checked Removable Storage as far as I can understand it! EG: A "Media Pool" snap-in has been created called Backup with miniQIC and Travan as sub snap-ins. Can see nothing untoward in their properties, but.... may be missing something. Under the "Physical Locations" snap-in a Seagate STT3401A snap in has been created with sub snap-ins called "Media" and "Drives". The tape injects and ejects from the Seagate snap-in menu. However there is nothing in the details pane when "Media" snap-in is selected. There is a Drive 0 in the details pane when the "Drives" snap-in is selected, however this says "Empty" in the state column. Help! Thanks in anticipation Tag: Upgrade RC copy Tag: 144156

    - SBS 2000 Rebuild on New Hardware Hi, Can anyone point me to a document on how to completely re- install SBS onto new hardware. Specifically do I just do a full restore over the top or is there a way of doing a clean install, then restoring AD, File and their security and Exchange thereafter. I am not confident the previous install is very healthy so a clean with a restore over the top of the main data is preferred. Curious Guy Tag: Upgrade RC copy Tag: 144147
