    - Iomega REV Drive Hi, I installed Iomega today on a SBS2000 latest SP & Patches and could NOT find the key (Eliot wrote)HKLM\software\microsoft\smallbusinessserver\backup - the smallbusinessserver does NOT Exist. I also cannot see the REV drive in MyComputer but can see it in Explorer. Using their backup program, it doesn't allow backup of network drives or mapped drives. I have a Windows 2000 Terminal Server connected to the network and the Iomega REV backup Program cannot see this server. Any assistance would be appreciated.

    - Internet Service Down Hi All: This morning our internet connections from our SBS server went south. I have checked the ISP connection and the DSL modem by using a laptop to connect to the internet through the DSL modem, service works fine. Our setup is as follows: SBS with 2 NIC's, router (Netgear), DSL modem (Actiontec). I have checked the IP addresses and nothing appears changed from last Friday when everything was running fine. I have even rerun the ICW hoping that would solve the problem but still cannot connect to the internet. I hope that someone can give me some direction to solve my problem. A second issue is that in our event log I am receiving Event ID errors 1126, and warning id 1655. I have read KD318170 and it refers to installing the latest service pack. I have installed SBS SP1a which should include the latest. Would a reinstall of SP1a solve the problem? Any help would be appreciated. I am sure that I have not been specific enough so will provide any additional nformation that may be needed. Thanks in advance Gerald P Tag: creating a new sbs2000 domain Tag: 159914

    - ISA and internal Webcam Hi everyone, I have a weird problem which I think is ISA-related... this is the scenario: SBS2k + ISA w/2 NICs WinXP Pro workstations (ISA firewall client + proxy settings) 1 Webcam (built-in webserver) connected directly to the switch inside the SBS Lan (and a static IP assigned). I can access the webcam perfectly from my laptop (which isn't part of the domain nor has the ISA client installed or proxy settings). However, all other workstations (which are configured to use ISA) can see the webcam but with many errors: pics don't load, links don't work and more importantly the ActiveX component is never even loaded to see the picture. I think it has to do with the ISA proxy since it might be blocking something and/or doesn't know where to look for the camera. I can pinpoint the problem because it still connects and some stuff does load (and some load after a reload, ect.). Any ideas/suggestions? -- Javier [SBS MVP] << SBS ROCKS!!! >> Tag: creating a new sbs2000 domain Tag: 159902

    - Adding Windows Server 2K3 to SBS2K domain I have found some resources showing that it is possible to add a W2K3 server to our SBS2K domain, but I also read that each of the servers you add uses one of the SBS2K licenses. Is that correct? If I remember correctly you can have a max of 50 SBS2K licenses. Is that right? Also, when I add a W2K3 Server, I would license it per-seat, using the total number of seats purchased with the SBS2K server, right? Thanks! Tag: creating a new sbs2000 domain Tag: 159901

    - cannot mount media on ntbackup on sbs 2003 I have a Sony AITi130/S (wide SCSI) tape drive running on SBS 2003. It works fine with 3rd party software, but media will not mount using ntbackup. Usually I get an error saying "Backup device is not responding. Please check to make sure the device is on, cables are connected." I have checked cables and termination and I find no reason why it would work with 3rd party software but not ntbackup. Any suggestions? -- MTP Tag: creating a new sbs2000 domain Tag: 159888

    - How to turn of DHCP Hello, We have an SBS2000server with one NIC and a DSL modem and a Zywall firewall. All the 12 work stations assign IP address automatically. Weve been experiencing some slowness with the network recently, and an engineer suggested that we assign a fixed IP address to each ws and remove DHCP from the server. Is removing DHCP as simple as deactivating the one scope that they have ? Or should we completely remove it ? Any help would be appreciated.

    - Firewall and SBS 2003 Does anyone know of a good firewall that can be configured through SBS 2003 ICW? I have a D-Link router on my home network and SBS 2003 says that it can configure it automatically, but then generates an error when trying to do so. Configuring it manually, I can get it to work just fine, but not sure if I have it configured in the most secure manner. This is my test server. At work, we have a Cisco 506e that SBS 2003 ICW says it can configure automaticaly, but then also generates an error. I do not know how to configure this firewall manually, though. This firewall, I inherited and I know it has not been updated in a couple years with OS releases and we don't even have a GUI interface to configure it. I'm sure there are newer firewalls on the market that provide just as secure protection, are much easier to configure and are probably configurable by SBS 2003 itself. Has anyone had success with any? I'm a networking novice. Just looking for decent intrusion protection, vpn and owa access. Thanks, John Tag: creating a new sbs2000 domain Tag: 159886

    - Firewall and SBS 2003 Hello, I've been able to get SBS 2003 to work with all my remote access requirements working just fine on several test machines at home. The problem is that at work, I've inherited a Cisco PIX firewall 506e that I have no idea how to configure. This has been in place for several years with no updates installed on it. There is no GUI interface and I'm not at all familiar enough with Cisco firewalls to update or re-configure it to work with SBS 2003. (Previously, we had NT 4, with no remote access other than OWA configured). My question is, does anyone know of a good basic firewall that SBS can configure through the ICW that will work well with SBS using VPN and OWA. I have several users that need to connect through VPN but they have dynamic IP's so I'd like to allow VPN pass-through and use Windows Authentication to allow access. Is this a good solution for SBS 2003? Thanks, John Tag: creating a new sbs2000 domain Tag: 159885

When I installed the system originally there was no need for ISA as we already have a firewall in place, however I now need to be able to limit net access for some employees and hence I now need to add it. I have found the setup program under disk 2 but is this the correct way to add it and am I likly to bork the server by doing this. If not is there another way of adding it short of a whole reinstall?

    - Symantec Corporate Edition 9.0 Antivirus Notification on SBS2000 Folks, With version 8.0 of Symantec Antivirus Corp Edition, System Center never showed any infections on our server. Now with version 9.0 about 4 times a day our server catches a virus (usually Netsky) with it's Real-time protection. Furthermore, I've experimented when sending an email from a client machine and witnessed briefly the email scanner popup on the server! We use our server as a shared drive for our in-house software apps. Our Antivirus and mail servers are on different machines. On a final note, the SBS2000 application log is filled every few days with tonnes of Symantec alerts. Version 8.0 never did this. I'd appreciate any suggestions about where to start.

    - Trend patch for long virus pattern numbering Trend have released patches to enable their products to recognise longer virus pattern numbers (at present they are 3 digit) We have the previous incarnation of Trend suite, i.e. Scanmail 6.1; OSCE 5.5; ServerProtect 5.5 When I went to autoupdate OSCE 5.5 to 5.58, I followed the instructions to temporarily change the update URL, and then change it back (to an almost identical URL to the original). All seemed to go fine, apart from having to reboot to access the HTML management page from the server. The ServerProtect instructions also mention a change to that upate URL (which I did and whice seemed to update fine) but.... there is no mention of changing the URL back to the original or similar. I guess I'll have to contact Trend, but anyone know if this is correct or not? Don't want ServerProtect to not be updating the pattern files... Although I like Trend as a firm (their support is good and well-intentioned) and their products seem reliable and competively priced, their documentation sometimes seems like it has been badly translated from another language...

    - SBS-2003 Slooow We have 2 x SBS-2003 (one English and one Dutch) on 2 different locations. Both Pentium IV-2.8 GHz and 512 Mb memory. One is for 2 users and the other for 10 users. With ADSL. The problem is that when the servers are just started they work fine, but in a few days sending e-mail is getting slower. Sending a Word document takes normally a few seconds, but after a few days it takes about one minut. Restarting the server solves this problem. Any ideas ?

    - Server Crashing...help Our server started crashing last night with the blue screen of death. I don't really understand why. The server hasn't had any changes to it with software or hardware, and has been running flawlessly before this. When I reboot the server after it crashes, the server is not finding he harddrives. I have a RAID card that the harddrives are connected to. No matter how many times I reboot the server, it doesn't find them. I've found that I have to shut the server off, and then turn it back on in order for it to find the drives. Could it be a problem with the hardware RAID card? The only other odd thing that I've seen in the event log are some errors. Here are some of them: The Closed Caption Decoder service failed to start due to the following error: The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it. The previous system shutdown at 4:08:55 AM on 6/13/2004 was unexpected. Then, when the server comes back up, it has these errors: The IPSEC driver service failed to start due to the following error: Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service. The BDA MPE Filter service failed to start due to the following error: The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it. The Microsoft Streaming Tee/Sink-to-Sink Converter service failed to start due to the following error: The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it. The NABTS/FEC VBI Codec service failed to start due to the following error: The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it. The BDA Slip De-Framer service failed to start due to the following error: The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it.

    - Song of the Week - June 12, 2003 Random thoughts before the song ... I'm writing this after spending most of the day driving around the snow capped mountains west of Colorado Springs. So many wonderful scenes of the grandeur of the world we live in. You could just imagine the cowboys on horseback, and the wagons pulling families from the east to the west. Tomorrow I'll be heading back east to home in Florida. While driving, I was thinking of the impact that Ronald Reagan had on the world we live in. Worldwide sentiments seem to echo the same thoughts. I remember growing up in an era where we had regularly scheduled bomb shelter practices. We now have a different enemy. Finally it's my youngest daughter's birthday tomorrow. So I dedicate this song to all those pioneers in eras past, present and future ... Wind Beneath My Wings It must have been cold there in the '50s, (Cold War) to never know freedom from your fears. You were content to hold your ground, that's your way, you always were ready to shed a tear. So we were the ones who lived in freedom, while you were the one that took the blame. A beautiful face without a name -- for so long, a beautiful smile to hide the pain. Chorus Did you ever know that you're my hero, and ev'rything I would like to be? I can fly higher than an eagle, 'cause you are the wind beneath my wings. It might have appeared to go unnoticed, but because of you the world has changed. I want you to know I know the truth, of course I know it, Without you the wall might still remain (Berlin Wall) Chorus Did you ever know that you're my hero, and ev'rything I would like to be? I can fly higher than an eagle, 'cause you are the wind beneath my wings. Fly, fly, fly away, you let me fly so high. Oh, fly, fly, so high against the sky, so high I almost touch the sky. Thank you, thank you, thank God for you, the wind beneath my wings. -- Kevin Weilbacher [SBS-MVP] "The days pass by so quickly now, the nights are seldom long" Tag: creating a new sbs2000 domain Tag: 159807

Then yesterday I went back, and ended up re-running ICW again. After I ran it, I was told IMAP was no longer working. I noted first of all there was no imap filter in ISA. I added one but then still got a connection refused message. I try to telnet to port 143 locally from the server, and get * BYE Connection refused I restarted the exchange imap service, same problem. Rebooted, same troubles. Any idea where the issue is? My only hint, perhaps, is that since there was no packet filter at all in ISA for port 143, which is interesting, since it used to work for them.

you can either copy them from rt click My computer/properties/users or
create roaming profiles on the old, backup that folder and them make roaming
profiles on the new.
