    - Forwarding mail to external mailcontact and deliver locally Hi all, I have this problem on a SBS2000 and also on the SBS2003 version. Forwarding (AD Users, Exchange General, Forwarding) to an external contact works fine. Sending Mail directly to that contact also works fine! But when I ask exchange to deliver the messages to both the forwarding address and Exchange mailbox, the forwarding doesn't work anymore. :-( Strange thing is that this used to work on several servers, but now (maybe due to a service pack update?) this doesn't work anymore for new forwardings! Does anyone has suggestions? Thanks in advance, G! Tag: forest prep /domain prep differ ? in sbs2000 Tag: 172581

    - Questions about how to set up exchange 2003 Hello, I want to run the wizard to connect to the internet especially for Exchange. I'm not sure about some of the questions. We have a domain name registered and hosted by our ISP. We get pop3 e-mail from them without a problem. I don't know how to answer the wizard when it asks to "Use DNS to route e-mail" or "Forward all e-mail to e-mail server at your ISP" Next question is "E-amil is delivered directly to my server" or "Email held at ISP until my server sends a signal". How do i determine the answers to these questions and what do i ask my ISP to get the answers to these questions. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Tony Tag: forest prep /domain prep differ ? in sbs2000 Tag: 172567

    - Problems with mail delivery Sorry for posting twice.Not sure if this one went trough, I don't see my message anywhere, so here I go again. This is my scenario: We use exchange to send internal emails, share calendar, ect, we use and outside service to receive external emails. Guys something weird is happening here with one user when one user cpalermo CC people within the office (ex.cnicholes) and does "sent to" someone outside the office and when the person from the outside replies he receives the following message: Subject: Delivery Status Notification (Failure) The following message to <cnicholes@mydomain.local> was undeliverable. The reason for the problem: 5.1.2 - Bad destination host 'DNS Hard Error looking up mydomain.local (MX): NXDomain' When I go to cnicholes account in AD his default emial address is cnicholes@mydomaim.com which is correct and this is how it should be. His secondary is cnicholes@mydomain.local Also some users have in their address books with types of entries (FQDN and non-FQDN) for each person email address from within the office. By default, their Outlook inserts the non-FQDN. I would apreciate if some one can tell me or help me look for a solution for this one. This is only happening with this one user. Thanks to everyone in advance. Denise Tag: forest prep /domain prep differ ? in sbs2000 Tag: 172564

    - Server Crash Hi All once a week mainly on sunday night the sbs2000 box stops working. It basically will not let the administrator log on and all connectivity to it is dead. After a hard reboot it comes up ok and the only thing in the event viewer is as follows: The server was unable to allocate from the system paged pool because the pool was empty. There is no special 3rd party software on it and it only has started hapening a few months ago. Has anyone got any ideas please. We had a similar problem on another sbs2000 box and we resolved that by upgrading to sbs2003 !! Any help is much apreciated. Paris Tag: forest prep /domain prep differ ? in sbs2000 Tag: 172561

    - Outlook Web Access We have an SBS 2K server configured with two NIC's and are using OWA. However we can only access OWA remotely by first setting up a VPN connection to authenticate to the server and then running http://192.168.16.2/exchange where we have to authenticate a second time to open the mailbox. My understanding of OWA was to connect to the public IP address of the server. When we try to do this we just get a time out error. Can anyone please help me with this problem. Thankyou in advance.

    - Brightmail Authentication Problem I have installed Brightmail AntiSpam on a SBS 2000 server running exchange and ISA. For some reason I am unable to activate the product through their registration wizard. I am able to connect to the internet OK and all seems alright but it just won't work. Brightmail support have checked the installation logs and everything installed ok and they say will work as soon as registered properly. I am able to browse to their secure site ok and they and I are confused as to why I am unable to contact the Brightmail registration server. There is some sort of proxy server setting (I don't know why I would need it anyway) which call for a username and password. When I enter the administrator name and administrator I am refused access to the internet! Not sure what's happening here either. Has anyone experienced this or have any suggestions?

I only have one NIC and I wondered if anyone could tell me where to find the Local Address Table or the Windows 2000 routing table and how I would go about amending them.

    - BSOD POWER EDGE SERVER SBS 2000 I am not sure if this is the correct group to be addressing. If it is not please point me in the right direction. I have a Dell poweredge 2500 server running sbs 2000. I rebooted it last month after swapping the battery in our APC. Now every time it reboots I get the BSOD with an inaccesible boot device error. Now here is the puzzling part, If i run chkdsk it takes about an hour says it has fixed errors on the drive and lets me boot into sbs but if i then reboot the system i get the BSOD again!. What can be causing this it is driving me mad. Thanks in advance for any help Scott Tag: forest prep /domain prep differ ? in sbs2000 Tag: 172538

    - Problem Logging into the Domain on a Notebook Hello, SBS2K, WinXP Pro notebook. I am having trouble logging into the domain from a notebook. When I try to log in normally to the domain using either the Administrative account, or a users account that was always using the notebook (and also a local admin for the notebook), I receive the following message: "Windows cannot connect to the domain, either because the domain controller is down or otherwise unavailable, or because your computer account was not found." Also, if I try to log into the local computer, as opposed to the domain, with either the administrative account or a user account, both members of the local Administrators group, I receive the following message: "The system could not log you on. Make sure your username and domain are correct, then type your password. Letters in passwords must be typed using the correct case." The strangest part of all this is that if I turn off the wireless card and unplug the network cable then try to log into the domain using the Administrator account, I can successfully log in. Then, I can reconnect the cable and work normally. Since one of the messages I received mentioned the computer not being found in the domain, I went ahead and changed the computer domain after logging in in the manner I just described. After I did that and rebooted, I checked Active Directory, and saw the newly created computer. When I tried to log back in though, I received the same message as before. Now, I have no idea what to do to fix this. I haven't seen this problem before. Any ideas would be appreciated. If there is any more relevant info I haven't provided, I would be happy to do so. Thanks, Chris Tag: forest prep /domain prep differ ? in sbs2000 Tag: 172535

    - SBS Pop3 Service and Outlook Express Hello Everyone, Another baffling glitch! A client who travels a lot can't VPN to the server, and doesn't like OWA. When I tried to connect outlook express to collect POP3 mail from the SBS 2000 server, I get prompted for user name and password. No matter what combination I try, nothing will work. Just keeps prompting for user name and password. I even took the notebook into the client's office and plugged it into the LAN with a cable. After changing all the settings so it knows where the server is, it pings the server but still is challenged for a user name and password when attempting to pop for the mail. Anyone know of a reason or a fix???? Thanks for your help! -- Anna Clark Tag: forest prep /domain prep differ ? in sbs2000 Tag: 172521

    - Trouble with sbs2k in Terminal Server app mode. I migrated an SBS 2000 server to a new SBS 2003 server. That was mostly smooth and easy. I then reformated the old SBS 2000 server and reinstalled the 2000 OS and then STOPPED before installing the SBS components. At that point I made the server a member server of the 2003 domain set up Terminal Services for application mode, installed my applications, set my policies, etc, and then let users go nuts. I did not install any licenses since all the clients are using XP PRO and should supposedly be issued a free license. This worked GREAT for a couple of months, then all of a sudden we are getting the can't issue a license error (The remote computer disconnected the session because of an error in the licensing protocol). Before you post that I should delete the MSLicensing key on the clients, let me say that that doesn't work. It's irritating because it worked for a long time, then just quit.

    - Crazy Firewall/Email Problem I have a user that is using Outlook (Office XP version) and cannot send email through an external Internet email server. He is using the same settings as everyone else on the network and they are all working. His email account settings are ok and he can log in to his email via a web browser. I took his settings to a computer that was working but after I put his account on their computer now that user is failing (drat!). The one clue I have found is in the 'Small Business Server Administrator Console', (yes they are configured to go through ISA server). For the users that fail they show no User and their Client Computer is listed as an ip Address rather than a machine name such as WKSTN12. Help!!!

    - Remote access and ISA Hi everyone, I have recently taken over a site running SBS 2000 but with no ISA installed. Their current network config is Netgear ADSL modem/firewall/router -> switch-> server + clients. They currently have direct access from home to their work desktops using remote desktop. This enables them to work from home as though sitting at work or download work files to home for offline use. They can also view mail by loading outlook whilst looged on. Several laptop users have a b/band dialup to a shared workstation where all laptop users have accounts. They can open Outlook and gain access to all files they usually have access to. As they have several staff who operate overseas hey now really have a need for remote OWA via a web access. I would be very grateful for any advice on to how to achieve these requirements and whether installing ISA, with the necessary reconfiguring to the 2 nic scenario, would be an improvement in terms of firewall security to their network. Many thanks, Jed Tag: forest prep /domain prep differ ? in sbs2000 Tag: 172502

    - SBS 2000 and Dial-up Connection Hi, I am installing SBS 2000 for the first time. My ISP has only modem dial-up connection. I want SMTP mail relayed to my Exchange Server. I discovered that ISA 2000 server requires a second NIC for the external connection. Is there any way to get around this? Can I specify IP address in the networking tab of the dial-up connection property? Any help is appreciated. Dan Tag: forest prep /domain prep differ ? in sbs2000 Tag: 172484

    - Browsing website on own network I have a SBS 2000 domain setup. There is DSL and a Watchguard firewall. I also have a external host for my website. From anywhere on my network, I cannot access http://mydomainname.com. It says page cannot be displayed. Anywhere off the network I can access it. Does anyone know why this happening? I also have a Windows 2003 Server with IIS. Off the network I can see the IIS pages. On site I get the same problems... page cannot be displayed. Im guessing it might be some firewall thing? If so, what is it. Thanks Greg Tag: forest prep /domain prep differ ? in sbs2000 Tag: 172481

    - CALs Between SBS 2000 and Windows Server 2003 - IIS Hello Hope someone can help me on this. I have one SBS 2000 as a DC and one Win Server 2003 machine with IIS as standalone but part of the domain. I want employees to access the IIS machine from home, via web browser to get to IIS. This is not a public web server. How do I license this? I have 25 CAL's for SBS and the 5 CALs that come with 2003. Currently the 25 CAL's are reaching capacity. Would I need to buy more CALs for SBS2000 or is the 5 CALs that 2003 be sufficient enough? Only a few employees at a time are planning on using IIS at a time.

I would like to add the built in admin account in the OU. If I can do this, how do I do this. Thanks Tag: forest prep /domain prep differ ? in sbs2000 Tag: 172467

    - I need to Add 2003 SBS Cal's to 2000 SBS I purchased 10 Cal's for 2003 SBS, I was told these were downgradable to 2000 SBS. I go into the SBS administrator console to add CALS, but it tells me to run the A:\Setup.exe to install additional CALS. I can't go directly into the licensing control panel because it tells me to go into the SBS admin console. I would run A:\Setup.exe, but I ordered licensing from microsoft and I only recieved the CAL Codes, no executables. Is there a way to Add Cal's with the codes I recieved? or do I need to track down the executables I maybe should have recieved? Thanks! Tag: forest prep /domain prep differ ? in sbs2000 Tag: 172438

    - SBS2000 and a DMZ Hi Group, I am running a dual NIC SBS2000 with ISA configured as follows cable modem <--> netgear WGR614v2(192.168.0.1)providing DHCP <--> external NIC(192.168.0.5) <- ISA -> internal NIC(10.10.0.5) <--> SBS2K(DHCP/DNS) <-->LAN there are (4) wireless users that are "outside"(segement 192.168.0.xxx) there is an SBS2000 server and several desktops "inside"(segement 10.10.0.xxx) Inside everything is great... I'd have added a Windows 2003 server in the "outside" network segment and have done so at ip address 192.168.0.5 This server is a file, print server, and streaming media server. So the question is(drum roll) can I access the W2K3 server from "inside" the secure network? and if so HOW. Also, I'd like to push Syamntec AV Corp Ed client out to the (4) wireless desktops in the "DMZ" and install my main network printer in the DMZ as well. I am running SUS "inside" and would like to push the MS Updates out to the DMZ wireless desktops. I'd like to retains use of the network printer from within the secure network(10.10.0.xxx). I'd like to be able to access the shared data on the W2K3 shares(it is all music and video) from within the secure network(10.10.0.xxx) I'd like to PREVENT the 192.168.0.xxx segment from accessing the secure network. I have created this configuration...but will entertain and and all suggestions... TIA RickD Tag: forest prep /domain prep differ ? in sbs2000 Tag: 172415

I tried to do this by adding an another OU and placing the users that I want and created a gpo. They don't seem to apply. I think that the gpo sbs creates in root domain.local overrides this as when I make changes in this one they apply although they apply to all users including the administrator which I don't want. Did that make sense? any help would be appreciated. Tag: forest prep /domain prep differ ? in sbs2000 Tag: 172403

Hi Simcha,

You can't demote SBS 2000. It will have to be the king in the forest.
