    - Roaming profiles and redirection. Hi, I am currently using roming profiles and was wondering if I was to keep the roaming profiles as there are users that need to work on mult computers ie outlook. If I setup the my docu to folder redir. will it cancel out the roaming profiles from copying the my documents folder back and forth. Or is there a way to completely kill roaming profiles and altogether and still be able to have user setting carry from computer to computer....

    - SBS internet connection Replacing an SBS server (functionally ok) with a much faster one. I've been through this nightmare before, installing SBS on a muli-homed machine. It won't even recognize the cable being plugged in on the nic to connect to the T1 line router. I know the nic card works, because if I reverse the connections the "cable unplugged" nag goes away. I have all the adapter setings just as they were on the old computer, and I'm using the connection right now on a new computer not connected to the LAN to send this message. I think I have something misconfigured in ISA, my hunch is that it's blocking access. Need help urgently, I'm at my clients branch location in another state and have only a couple days to replace the server and most of the workstations.

    - ** 03-023 Buffer Overrun in HTML [It's Wednesday Patch day] - - --------------------------------------------------------------- Title: Buffer Overrun In HTML Converter Could Allow Code Execution (823559) Date: 09 July 2003 Software: Microsoft(r) Windows (r) 98 Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition Microsoft Windows Me Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 Terminal Services Edition Microsoft Windows 2000 Microsoft Windows XP Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Impact: Allow an attacker to execute code of their choice Max Risk: Critical Bulletin: MS03-023 Microsoft encourages customers to review the Security Bulletins at: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS03-023.asp http://www.microsoft.com/security/security_bulletins/ms03-023.asp - - --------------------------------------------------------------- Issue: ====== All versions of Microsoft Windows contain support for file conversion within the operating system. This functionality allows users of Microsoft Windows to convert file formats from one to another. In particular, Microsoft Windows contains support for HTML conversion within the operating system. This functionality allows users to view, import, or save files as HTML. There is a flaw in the way the HTML converter for Microsoft Windows handles a conversion request during a cut-and-paste operation. This flaw causes a security vulnerability to exist. A specially crafted request to the HTML converter could cause the converter to fail in such a way that it could execute code in the context of the currently logged-in user. Because this functionality is used by Internet Explorer, an attacker could craft a specially formed Web page or HTML e-mail that would cause the HTML converter to run arbitrary code on a user's system. A user visiting an attacker's Web site could allow the attacker to exploit the vulnerability without any other user action. To exploit this vulnerability, the attacker would have to create a specially-formed HTML e-mail and send it to the user. Alternatively, an attacker would have to host a malicious Web site that contains a Web page designed to exploit this vulnerability. The attacker would then have to persuade a user to visit that site. Mitigating factors: ==================== - By default, Internet Explorer on Windows Server 2003 runs in Enhanced Security Configuration. This default configuration of Internet Explorer blocks automatic exploitation of this attack. If Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration has been disabled, the protections put in place that prevent this vulnerability from being automatically exploited would be removed. - In the Web-based attack scenario, the attacker would have to host a Web site that contained a Web page used to exploit this vulnerability. An attacker would have no way to force users to visit a malicious Web site outside the HTML e-mail vector. Instead, the attacker would need to lure them there, typically by getting them to click a link that would take them to the attacker's site. - Exploiting the vulnerability would allow the attacker only the same privileges as the user. Users whose accounts are configured to have few privileges on the system would be at less risk than ones who operate with administrative privileges. Risk Rating: ============ Critical Patch Availability: =================== - A patch is available to fix this vulnerability. Please read the Security Bulletins at http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms03-023.asp http://www.microsoft.com/security/security_bulletins/ms03-023.asp for information on obtaining this patch.

    - differences between SBS2000 and it's individual components... Greetings, A small business client of mine is purchasing a new properly management package to replace their old DOS based package. The new package is web based and runs on Win2k, IIS, SQL Server 2000 and Exchange 2000. The small business client currently runs an old Novell server and about 6 older Win95 and 98. The vendor of the new software made recommendation regarding the new server (Dell 2x Xeon, 2GB RAM, Raid 5) and also recommended the purchase of individual packages of Windows 2000, Exchange 2000, and SQL Server 2000 and the appropriate numer of CAL's for each. The vendor also stated that the backup program shipped with Win2k Server is more than adequate to back up this server properly. I came back with the recommendation that they consider the purchase and use of SBS2000 instead of the individual components. Purchasing SBS2000 would save about $3000 over the individual components so it's not a trivial sum. I also recommended the purchase of a third party server backup package (Backup Exec, Arcserve, etc.) to take care of the system backup needs. The vendor responded that SBS2000 wasn't the same as the individual components and that they've had lot of problems when using SBS2000, but could not provide specifics about these problems when asked. The vendor also stated that the level of support from MS was different and inadequate for the SBS products when compared to the individual components so that was another reason to not use SBS2000. The vendor also stated that they would allow the use of SBS2000, but would charge an additional 8-16 hours of install labor if SBS2000 was used. As a seasoned veteran of the consulting and small business technology support profession, I know what my feelings are towards what this vendor has to say. I'm interested in hearing from anyone who cares to comment regarding this vendors recommendations. Tag: Upgrading a Novell network to SBS 2000 Tag: 115392

    - Please keep away from Symantec corporate 8.1 Hi all, Had a very bad experience with the latest Symantec Corporate Multi-tier version 8.1. You need to register it on Symantec site and they are supposed to send you a license file by e-mail which permits you to run liveupdate, I'm still waiting for the license file after 8 hours - the symantec support is pathetic (here in Europe). The problem is that even if you manually update to the latest virus pattern files, Symantec keeps on reverting to original pattern file i.e. 23/03/2003 so the server and clients are not fully protected. If tomorrow I don't get the license file, I'll revert back to old version and probably order Trend. If anybody is thinking of buying one please be aware. IK .

    - RAS users passwords keep going invalid We have several outworkers who have laptops, and who can connect to our network in the usual way when they come into the office, and they can do so without any difficulty. However, if they try and use RAS to dial into the server, their passwords become invalid,and they can't log on. Once their passwords have been reset on the server, they can RAS in again. Their accounts are set up as 'passwords never expire'. Does anybody know why their passwords keep getting invalidated, and how to stop it?

    - Exchange SBS and Hard Drive Space I am relatively new to working with Exchange and have followed the directions on installing and setting up SBS 2000. After 2 weeks of being in use, I have noticed that both partitions on my 120 Gig hard drive are full. We are a small 5-person office and do not received near enough email or other data to have filled this hard drive. The larger partition (100 gig) had almost no data on it, so I removed the data and had the partition reformatted. This cleared up the space and was fine. To better utilize the public folders and some data we wanted stored there, I moved the logs and database to the empty partition. After the next reboot, 95 Gig has vanished. The Public folders and the email boxes on the server have been disconnected from all of the Client systems and all the email was put on Local PST files to clear up space on the server prior to formatting the secondary partition as a precaution. I am at a serious loss on how to proceed. Any help that anyone can offer is greatly appreciated. Tag: Upgrading a Novell network to SBS 2000 Tag: 115346

    - Question for a skulker... Good Morning, I have been skulking in this group for almost six months gleaning information since I was chosen to look after our companies install of SBS2K. I will give you a profile of me and my install before I ask my question so that you can respond accordingly. I am NOT A NETWORK or IT PROFESSIONAL, I am a programmer that has a very good overall working knowledge. I have also done much reading, worked through this newgroup and Harry Brelsfords book. I did one istall based on Harrys Book, a second based on our comany and I am now live and fully operational. We have 9 users: 2 laptops that travel, 3 W2k and 4 NT4. Our interent is modem dial up. We are using sql (with accessXP as the front end on the workstations) We are also using exchange. The two laptops I have left with thier own interst e-mail for now as we do not have a full time connection that would allow them OWA. We have installed Trend AV, have a RAID5 (three + hot spare) with C: for system and D: for selected data and E: for exchage there is a separate mirror (2 drives)F: for other data and sql logs/back-ups etc. We do a COMPLETE back-up to tape every night. Everything is working... I don't even have any perflib errors! My first question (the first one I will have more as I move ahead) is this: When I make a TS connection (Admin Mode) to the server a complete copy of "My Documents" is copied to the server c:\documents and settings etc... I have read several posts and thay all refer to "Group Policy" and redirection. All the "security" postings sound scary since I have no knowledge or experience in this area. What I need is a step by step walk through of exactly what I need to to to make all users "My Documents" not get dragged across the network and "synchronized" every login/out.

    - Run software remotely? Hello all, This question is related to previous post I made, but I wanted to restate the problem more directly (and not presume a solution). I have a piece of technical software (Matlab) which I would like to run remotely on another computer. I use it to develop fairly complex computer models which can take a while to run and really bog things down when they do. So I would like to install the software on another, reasonably power PC I have and run it remotely so I can do other work on my machine while it's crunching away. I also have a coworker (off site) who will need to access this occasionally (its an engineering tool) -but not at the same time. All the machines are connected on a small, SBS2000 network. So my question is what's the best way to accomplish this (assuming it can be done)? Thanks for any advice. -Pat Tag: Upgrading a Novell network to SBS 2000 Tag: 115332

    - SBS shared fax address book Shared Fax cannot see my address books. I created a contacts folder in Public Folders, set the permissions accordingly, had each user set Outlook to see it as an "Outlook Address Book". Now Outlook and Shared Fax can use this address book - great - but on our XP machines only. On the server itself however (W2K Server), neither Outlook nor Shared Fax can see it as an address book. When I click "Address Book" in Shared Fax, I get Global Address List, All Address Lists, All Contacts, All Groups, All Users, and Public Folders. Not even my normal mailbox Exchange contacts show up. How on Earth can I get this contacts folder to show up in Shared Fax? What am I missing? I even checked that IE is using Outlook for email (another setting I saw in a post here).

    - Netmeeting remote control Hello, I have an SBS 2000 server configured with two network cards, and all is fine. I now have a firewall installation that has been configured to allow VPN, and all is working well. The result is, I have connectivity to the external NIC of my SBS server. Is it possible to therefore use netmeeting to remote control an SBS client sat on the internal LAN from a machine connected to the external NIC? I have mastered the art of remote control via netmeeting on the internal LAN. I think my questions are more in the ISA 2000 and routing interface area.

Anyway,We had replicated folders etc to the new mail server though. I use MS SBS 2000 along with Exchange server 2000 and keep getting the following messages into my own personal inbox. From Public Folder Store (OurServerName) Subject Conflict message - (Whatever Message subject was) When i double click to open these messages i get Multiple edits have been made to "RE: Here it is" conflicting edits have been attached to a conflict message in "2001 - Customer- E-mails". If i then click the open message in conflict button i can see two e-mails NT AUTHORITY/SYSTEMRe:Here it is I then have two options keep this item or keep all. I do not know what will happen if i select the keep all tab or keep this only tab. I have a total of 300+ e-mails in my inbox from the last four days. I can see that the e-mails changed times are somehting like 5 minutes apart frrom when the system states they are being changed.

A friend who also runs SBS 2000 has the disks, but they have a Product Key sticker on them. Can I install on our new hardware with his disks and our license numbers? Any help would be appreciated.

    - Address book for shared fax on Windows 2000 Server Help! What am I missing? I created a contacts folder in Public Folders, set the permissions accordingly, had each user set Outlook to see it as an "Outlook Address Book". Now Outlook and Shared Fax can use this address book - great - but on our XP machines only. On the server itself however (W2K Server), neither Outlook nor Shared Fax can see it as an address book. When I click "Address Book" in Shared Fax, I get Global Address List, All Address Lists, All Contacts, All Groups, All Users, and Public Folders. Not even my normal mailbox Exchange contacts show up. How on Earth can I get this contacts folder to show up in Shared Fax? I even checked that IE is using Outlook for email (another setting I saw in a post here).

    - XP and Win2k clients cannot logon to the domain Hi all! At a customer site I have three computers that can't logon to the SBS domain. It is two Win XP Pro and on Win 2000 that can't logon. There's also three other Win XP Pro clients and a bunch of Win 98 clients that work as normal. The affected computers hangs at either the Applying personal settings or just a blue screen with the mouse pointer on. The problem occured this morning, previously there haven't been any problems. The server is just a week and a half old, and the onl thing I changed yesterday was to add the WINS-server in the DHCP-server broadcast to speed up the connection on the XP-clients. Of course I have tried to remove that entry, but that didn't help at all All computers have their IP-address via DHCP, and I have verified that they get the right DNS-settings, WINS-server, Netbios and so on. There are no strange entries in the event logs and I have removed the computers from the domain and added them under another name, tried different user accounts and so on. Logging on to the local machine is possible and then you can connect to the shared resources on the server. Do anyone have any suggestions to what to try next, I don't want reformat the computers.

    - Email forwarding We are trying to forward email from a user to his pager going through SBS. Is there any reason a Rules in Error message appears and the item does not forward? Can we not forward to any email address using rules anymore? ALN Tag: Upgrading a Novell network to SBS 2000 Tag: 115187

    - Terminal Services I have a customer who has been told that they need to go to SBS 2000. They have an application that needs SQL Server and they only have 20 users. My question regarding Terminal Services is can they buy the TS CALs and operate in the application mode for 5 remote users. Also, there is a possiblility that they will need to setup a separate IIS server. Can SBS have two servers in the same AD? Tag: Upgrading a Novell network to SBS 2000 Tag: 115177

I am going to see a prospect next week about converting their Novell network
over to Windows. They are using Novell 5 and Groupwise. I would like to
suggest SBS 2000 to them with SA to upgrade to SBS 2003.

I am wondering what is the best route to go:

Install the SBS server and SBS clients on all the workstations and then use
Gateway Service for Netware to connect the Novell server to the SBS network?
The Novell server will have data that will have to be pulled over.

Also, e-mail is another issue. How to we export or save all the Groupwise
e-mail so it can be imported into the Exchange mailboxes.

I am open to any suggestions or advise because I have never mixed the two,

TIA

GWNW is your best bet but I haven't touched Groupwise in YEARS! There has
to be somet type of pst export you can do. look 3rd party.
