    - Deny "delete" permission on company folder I have a costumer with SBS2000 network with Win98 and Win2000 clients. He want to deny files and folders delete permission inside the "company" folders to prevent accidental deleting of important files. He wants to do it only on cliente computers for normal users only (not administrators). I am not sure about with permssion I have to remove and if I should simply unchek "Authorize" or if I check "Deny". Another problem is that Word and Excel write temp files in the same folder of the original files, and when you close the program, it will not be able to delete even the temp files. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks, Filippo Taiana -----= Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News =----- http://www.newsfeeds.com - The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----== Over 80,000 Newsgroups - 16 Different Servers! =----- Tag: What is the meaning of this error Tag: 117959

    - Installing 2nd SBS2000 server I currently have one server running Windows 2000 and SBS2000. For the sake of this message I'll call the domain mycompany.com. Someone else set up this server, who is nolonger here, but said that because we already have a website called mycompany.com we could not see mycompany.com in our network so He said he tricked the ISA software to use mc (short for my company) as the displayed domain. The machine name is sbs2000. At any rate, I am tring to install another server in the domain to run as a backup. Actually I am upgrading NT 4.0 & SBS 4.5 TO SBS 2000 onto a NEW server. The instuctions tell me to install W2k on the new server but keep as a Workgroup. The machine name is sbs2000-2. Did that. Now when I install SBS2K on the screen that asks for the "Full DNS name for new domain" I put in mycompany.com and the system says it has detected a duplicate DNS domain name on the network. How do I name this to come up and be a member of my current domain to run as a backup? Dan . Tag: What is the meaning of this error Tag: 117958

    - RRAS and modem set-up Ok, I've posted about an error I'm receiving twice, and haven't had any help there. So, I'm changing tactics. I'm trying to set up a modem as a backup RAS connection (like for in case the T1 goes down). I can connect to the server via TS and VPN as it is right now when I'm connected to my ISP. I want to be able to dial directly into the server. It does have a modem and the modem does answer. I'm also running IAS on this server. I've read everything I could find on setting up a modem for RAS, and nothing has helped. Does anyone have any suggestions as to where I can find documentation on setting up a modem for dial-in with SBS2000 and IAS? Tag: What is the meaning of this error Tag: 117955

    - Automatic Updates Just a quick question, if I want to use automatic updates, but load them from one of our servers rather than the internet what is the best way around it? I have installed SUS onto the server, but I cant change the configuration of the client to point to the server, the only option I get is to download from the internet. Is there another way to change it to install from the server instead? Also would it be better to load from SMS, I have also downloaded a copy of this, but I cant see any of the computers our our domain listed in it. Is this a set-up error, or do I have to load anything else apart from making it a Domian controller? Tag: What is the meaning of this error Tag: 117941

    - Using the Install Client Applications option Hi all. I recently discovered the Install Client Applications feature in SBS 2000. I have used it to install Office XP to my clients, and I was wondering if I could use this for non-MS software as well. For instance, could I push Photoshop to a computer using this method as well? If not, does anyone have a product that could do this that they would recommend? Thanks in advance. -- Jason Tag: What is the meaning of this error Tag: 117936

    - Firewall settings - reply Hi Chad I am following up on the reply to my question on the Newsgroup (see below). I am trying to set up an EDI system from my LAN. It requires access to the remote server over ports 21, 989, 990, and 3662. I have created protocol rules for each of these ports (both inbound and outbound) but my software fails at the point of the handshake, implying that the ports are not accessible in some way.I have set them up as TCP ports and specified the port numbers inbound and outbound (separate protocols under one protocol rule). I am trying to access the remote server from one of my workstations. I think everything is set up correctly. Can you think of anything I may have missed or overlooked? Yours John Wilson Hi John - First question is what machine(s) need access on these ports? If client machines, you need to create a protocol rule (& and protocol definitions), if the server is the only machine that needs these ports, then you are correct that you need packet filters. For your packet filters, I'm guessing you have both your local and remote ports set to a fixed port. It's been my experience that this does not work well, if at all. The side of the connection that is accepting inbound connections should be set to the fixed port number, with the client side being set to either All Ports or Dynamic. For example, if you are initiating a connection with a server on the internet (so that the remote server is accepting the incoming connection), then the remote port will be set to fixed and the local port will be set to either All Ports or Dynamic. If your server is accepting inbound connections from others, then the local port will be set to fixed and the remote port set to either All Ports or Dynamic. Also - unless you are accepting inbound connections from other machines on the internet, I would set the packet filters to be for outbound access only. If the clients need access, you'll need to expand Policy Elements and create a new protocol definition for each port you need open. If you're using the default BackOffice Internet Access protocol rule, then the clients should have access after creating these definitions. If you've locked down your outbound access, then you'll need to create a new protocol rule to allow the new protocol definitions you just created. -- Chad A Gross Lerman's Law of Technology: Any technical problem can be overcome given enough time and money.

    - Magic Disk not working on several XP Pro SP1 PCs. Why? Hello, A question. On a new SBS install, I installed the client diskette to add some XP PRO SP1 laptops to my network but when I click on the diskette and click setup, the PC freezes at "Installing Windows 2000 Networking" and I have to end the task. I am getting this mostly on new installs. And once when it did finally install, I could not surf the internet. I checked my settings and the domain information looked right. I manually installed the firewall client. My proxy looked right in the IE settings. Only with XP Pro boxes, others seem ok. Even Win98 boxes install ok. I posted a question before, I had the browser service set to auto. Could this of done it? No errors on the server side. no viruses. Am running Symantec's Corporate Edition 8.1, only 12 users total here. Thanks JohnJ P.S. Is there a site where I can get detailed steps on how to install MANUALY and bypass the magic diskette?

    - SBS2000 and "computer browser" service question Hello, I am a bit confused. I read that all XP PRO and Win2K PCS on a network with an SBS2000 server should have the "Computer Browser" service set to Manual and it should not be on, otherwise you get a "forced election" error. Even though the Computer Browser defaults to Automatic on a clean install. I keep getting the broswer errors in my event log and it is maddening. If I turn off the browser service, I can't see other PCs in the network. If I set to "NO" on maintainserverlist, it is even worse. I have maintainserverlist set to "auto." What do you think?

    - HDD access with SBS (Win2k) I seem to recall that Win2k will only normally use UDMA33 to access HDDs. (X-teq, http://www.xteq.com/ are able to implement UDMA66).

    - POP3 Hey there I have just taken over a site who has SBS2000. While I was doing some server maintenance I decided to run a port scan and found 4 ports open, one of the was POP3. I closed them all down which was fine. I then found out that the customer, when he is off-site downloads his email using pop3 directly off their SBS server via the internet. I know is is possible but I have never seen it done before. Would you guys/gals class this as risky having the POP3 port open to the world?? Cheers Daniel.

    - Active Direcotry woes Hi all, I am at a loss here and hoping that someone can clue me in. Senario We have a SBS200 (SP4) installed as a domain controller running exchange. Upon install everything worked well, we could add computers and users w/o any problems. Recently, I tried adding a new machine to the domain and started getting dns errors relating to not being able to contact the domain controller. The dns erros are relating to not finding dns entries. forexaple when using the "Network ID" method from My Computer -> Properties -> Computer Name. If I say the domain name is XYZ I get the dns error of not finding the name. But if I use XYZ.COM it says it resolved the FDQN of the domain contorller but does not connect to it saying something along lthe lines of the resolved name is not the domain controller. In the past when I added machines I just used XYZ and not XYZ.com So I procedded to check WINS and things look good there. We use an external dns server (extenal to SBS2000 and not the network) running BIND. All the updates and such look ok on it and looking at the support pages I can do the nslookups correctly to rectrive the SRV records. I am assuming that I am missing something really really simple here. Any one have any ideas or thoughts of things I could try? TIA Shantu Tag: What is the meaning of this error Tag: 117847

    - Backup Exec 9.0 Disaster Recovery Anyone done one yet? We have a new PowerEdge 2600 going out in a week, so I thought I'd check this out, as this is my first Backup Exec 9.0. SBS 2K is the latest SP1 CD package. All new. The first bout of failures prompted a download of build 4454 from Veritas, but I still have the problem. I can backup and restore from a functioning server, to the same state server, but the disaster recovery is.. well... a disaster. 1) Build the server, do a backup, and then do a restore of data and Exchange data from tape, all OK. Keep the tape, and trash the server. 2) Start again following http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/243037.htm I get to item 23 on the list, and then.....failed with error code: a000848c Hex. http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/256057.htm 3) Ah well...build the server (again) using the CD's back to a fully functioning state. Same as 1). Do an inventory, and catalogue, and try to get the exchange data off the original tape. ........failed with error code: a000848c !!!!!!!! Yet I can restore the user data from this original tape to the number 3) machine. Veritas says a000848c HEX is incorrect user accounts, and / or passwords. Yet I was very careful. Only the administrator account (created during SBS install) was used. No other accounts were created. The password used was the same in both. Veritas was "assigned" to the administrators account. No other accounts or passwords were used. In fact I used identical info when configuring 1) and 3). Anyone help please?

Since then the system has been put on "don't touch" which means nothing has been done in the meantime: no repartitioning, nos saves, no formatting, no nothing. The data that have been lost with the deletion are vital. I have been trying to solve the problem since yesterday but couldn't find my way out.

    - No internet access through 'Backoffice Internet Access' group - help Having now successfully added XP (home) and 9.x clients to my first SBS 2000 server I cannot seem to get internet access to happen by allowing access through ISA to members of the 'BackOffice Internet Users' group. I have a single BackOffice Internet Access Protocol rule which has to be set as follows to work - protocol = all IP traffic - applies to = Any request If I set the "applies to" to 'DOMAIN\BackOffice Internet Users' and "protocol" to 'all IP traffic' clients can get HTTP access but no NNTP or POP3 access. If I try to select certain IP filters eg NNTP there seems to be no effect. I am stumped as to why this happens and I understand that with access set this way my server is not as secure as it could be. I am under the assumption that - users are members of 'BackOffice Internet Users' - internet access is granted through ISA to ''BackOffice Internet Users' - so clients should be able to access the Internet according to the IP packet filters that have been selected (in my case only all IP traffic seems to work) I have full patches applied according to hfnetchk pro4.

    - Cannot browse network on SBS 2000 when using ZyWALL VPN Hi I have problems browsing my SBS 2000 domain and connecting shared drives when using VPN access using a ZyWALL. The local network is 192.168.1.0/24. When I connect from another local network range (e.g. 192.168.21.0/24), I can browse the network with no problems. However, when I dial to some ISP and use a routed IP address, I can no longer access the resources (Run \\192.168.1.11 responds with "Network path not found."). The strange thing is I can ping the server, I can use other resources such as SMTP. Only NetBIOS performs strange. I uninstalled ISA server because I thought it might be an ISA server problem - this didn't solve the problem. There is no WINS server running. Is there a way to set NetBIOS access parameters like hosts_allow in Samba? Thanks for any help. David Tag: What is the meaning of this error Tag: 117799

    - POP3 connector crashes at SMTP delivery stage Hi, I have a really wierd problem with a SBS2000 installation and the POP3 connector for Exchange. Everything had been working fine for over a year but all of a sudden (without any change to the server's configuration), the POP3 connector has started crashing. Basically the POP3 connector crashes at the point where it transitions from completing the POP3 download from the remote mailbox to connecting to Exchange's SMTP server at the exact point where it trys to connect to the SMTP service, port 25 (the last event ID is 4020). However, if the server is rebooted, any mail previously collected prior to the crash will then be delivered, but the next time the POP3 connector collects new mail it crashes again after downloading them and then crashes whenever the service is restarted. Maybe it's a bit clearer if I walk through the exact sequence and what happens in the application log (I have logging set to maximum). 1. Start with the server rebooting. At this point there are messages left in the InForward directory from the previous session where the POP3 connector had crashed. 2. Once server is booted, I check the application log: I can see that a SMTP connection is attempted (event ID 4020 "The Delivery Service is logging as an SMTP client on port 25 ") followed by connection event ID 4013 and then all the messages are delivered one by one (event ID's 4022 and 4032). All OK so far - messages have been delivered to the appropriate mailboxes. Examining the SMTP server's log file also shows everything was ok. 3. Now I force a Retrieve Now on the POP3 connector. 4. The ADSL connection is established automatically (note that I currently have a dynamic IP address - hence the reason for using POP3!) 5. Summary of events that occur now: Event ID 4010: Checking messages in multiple POP3 mailboxes Event ID 4028: The POP3 agent is going to open the mailbox... Event ID 4019: The delivery service is logging as a POP3 client on port 110 Event ID 4015: The POP3 host ... answered ... Event ID 4016: We have been granted access to ... Event ID 4024: There are 21 message(s) with a total of 194156 byte(s) Event ID 4029: A message was downloaded from the POP3 server. ... {21 of these} Event ID 4023: The POP3 session transcript was: ... <G>: +OK demon POP3 server ready (demon.co.uk) <C>: USER *** <S>: +OK <C>: PASS <secret password> <S>: +OK <C>: STAT <S>: +OK 21 194156 <C> { Downloaded and deleted messages if neccessary. } <C>: QUIT <S>: +OK {This event is repeated once again} Event ID 4001: The shared POP3 accounts have been checked for incoming messages Event ID 4031: The individual POP3 accounts have been checked for incoming messages 6. At this point it crashes, stating an internal error has occured. No more events in the application log. The messages are now left in the INCOMING folder. The POP3 service is not running. This is an extract from the file VMIMB.TXT: ====================================================== Product: Microsoft Connector for POP3 Mailboxes 5.00.2195.1 Fault Date: 07/16/2003 Time: 20:09:25 ====================================================== Exception Code: C0000005 ACCESS_VIOLATION Fault Address: 004080B3 01:000070B3 C:\Program Files\Microsoft BackOffice\Connectivity\POP3 Connector\vmimb.exe 7. Restart the POP3 service manually. It now moves the files in INCOMING into INFORWARD before promptly crashing again. Looking in the application log I get: 1000: The service is starting. Microsoft Connector for POP3 Mailboxes 5.00.2195. 1001: The service started successfully. 4008: The delivery service is flushing its outgoing and incoming queues 4009: Flushing transaction complete 4041: LDAP: The entry points where loaded from the image: <C:\WINNT\system32\WLDAP32.dll> 4008: The delivery service is flushing its outgoing and incoming queues 4020: The Delivery Service is logging as an SMTP client on port 25 {crash now!} Every restart of the POP3 connector service now follows this pattern of crashing and the last event being 4020. Examining the SMTP log file shows that no connection was attempted. Even if I stop the SMTP service it still happens this way. The only way to get it to deliver the mail is to reboot the server. The SMTP connection is then made OK. I've also tried a manual telnet to the SMTP server to make sure that responds, and it does. I'm at a bit of a loss on how to resolve this. Anybody got any ideas? I've tried reinstalling the POP3 connector and that's not made any difference. Regards, Aled. Tag: What is the meaning of this error Tag: 117749
