    - Help! IIS not responding to SSL request I just renewed a certificate on my SBS 2k server. Since then my website is not responding to SSL. I verified that IIS is listening on 443 via netstat -an and that no other services are listening to that port when IIS and the website is shut down. There has been no changes to my firewall and the port is showing open. I removed the old cert (which was expired) in case that is the problem. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks in advanced, Marc Ashworth CISSP, MCSE Tag: SBS installation confusion Tag: 142817

    - SBS2000 w/XP Pro clients, experiencing slow network performance when opening more than one connection to server Hello, I have a small network with an SBS2000 server on a Proliant ML350G3 (Fully loaded), and 4 XP Pro Workstations (HP D220's w/512MB Ram). The network performs well until we initiate more than one connection to the server. For example, if we browse to a share on the server from a workstation and begin a copy of files from one directory to another the performance is poor until we close the window (leaving only the transfer or xcopy still running), then the performance increases dramatically. A network sniff reveals a large amount of SMB traffic and SMB request errors. An old Q article references this exact issue pre-SP1, however the server is W2kSP4. We have configured the Oplock registry settings, but still do not have any success. Our primary business application resides on the server, and the db is accessed by the workstations. This network performance has brought our business to a grinding halt. Previously we ran another version of our primary business app on a very old Novell server with 32MB Ram and Win98 workstations and had great performance. We were forced to upgrade the HW and operating system to meet the requirements of the newer version of our primary business app. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know Thank you Roger Tag: SBS installation confusion Tag: 142793

    - XP client trying to use printer on a 4.5 SBS I have just set up an XP pro client PC on my network and want to connect to a LaserJet 4100dtn managed by my 4.5 SBS. I can see it when I do an add printer on my client and indeed the add printer appears to have set it OK, I can see the duplex settings etc., within properties. Hwever, it won't print. I suspect that it needs the XP printer driver (which I've downloaded from th HP web site), but how do I get SBS 4.5 to upload it to the XP client? Any help would be appreciated.

    - SBS Network Places Problems We have SBS 2000, running on a domain with about 50 clients, using either Win2k or WinXP. The problem is that at any point in the day if anyone of the clients looks in Network Places, they can only see 1 other computer on the domain. When I looked on Event Viewer on the Server I get Event ID 8003, Mrxsmb, where the master browser has recieved an announment from a client machine X and that a vote has taken place. The machine X is then the only one that anyone can see in Network Places. Is there anyway to stop these votes from happening and keeping the Server as the only master browser.

    - roaming laptop user finds blank COMPANY folder Hi, I have a situation whereby a company group uses SBS2000 in each of its 3 remote offices independantly (each office is a different company within the group and do not need to be joined The director's laptop uses the same static ip address for each branch, i.e. 192.168.16.9 and a DNS record in each branch points this address to the local AD in order for him to be recognised on each domain. (His computer/username account is the same in each branch) Problem: On random occasions, when he connects to a remote branch and tries to access the COMPANY folder, the folder shows up as being "empty", even though there are numerous folders in it The problem only occurs at the remote offices and not at the original location where he spends most of his time (and where his email account is kept) Is this perhaps something to do with Windows XP Pro using a cache somewhere along the line which needs to be flushed Is there anyway to solve this problem so that he can log on to any branch and access their COMPANY folder PS: Yes, Windows 2003 servers linked by VPN is the next step, but at the moment, cost is unfortunately an issue.

    - Exchange Mail bouncing: Body type not supported by Remote Host Hi All I am the administrator for my companies network and SBS2000. I often recieve email from the server saying that is it undeliverable to the particular user. They always have the same error message about body type not being supported. All of the users this happens to have thier email redirected to an external account as they are not full time employees and prefer it not to use our system. However this is still a nuisance and would prefer it if it did not happen. Has anyone come accross a similar problem? or have any advice on how to fix it. I have attached the body of the error message produced by the server below: Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients. Subject: xxxxxxxxxxx Sent: 19/11/2003 23:31 The following recipient(s) could not be reached: UserXXX on 19/11/2003 23:26 The message contains a content type that is not supportedThe MTS-ID of the original message. is:BC.33250.7839775 <sbsserver.local #5.6.1 smtp;554 5.6.1 Body type not supported by Remote Host> Tag: SBS installation confusion Tag: 142775

    - Problem with Outlook A problem has suddenly occurred with Outlook across our firm Many emails will not open with the message in the preview pane - 'This item contains active content that cannot be displayed in the preview pane. Open the item to read its contents." When trying to open the item a box appears 'Cannot open item' This is happening to some internal and external emails and some do not have any attachments. Emails from certain users are the problem with the internal stuff. Earlier this morning I restarted the server and this appears to be the start of the problem. I had not altered any settings. The other day we updated GFI MailSecurity anti-virus but I can't see that that should cause a problem. Any clues? Simon Tag: SBS installation confusion Tag: 142774

    - exchange server problem! I have an SBS2000 setup with 10 clients (XP and W98) conected via a single netgear 16 port switch. I have just added two new W98 clients. Users can log on fine, access server files and Internet. Email comes in to outlook as normal but When they select 'new' in Outlook and 'to' for access to the global address list the the following error comes up 'network problems are preventing connection to the microsoft exchange server' I have changed network cables, network cards and tried different ports on the switch and the server has ben shut down and restarted but this hasn't helped. Users can reply to emails that come in normally but they cant send any new post via the GAL. The SBS2000 has 25 licenses in total. None of the other clients have this problem only the new ones and they were added using the client set up disk. Any ideas folks, Cheers, David Tag: SBS installation confusion Tag: 142770

    - missing mail/authentication Hi, Sorry for asking the same question twice but I need to know for sure: Because of unwanted relaying of a pop3-connector I got the advice to turn off basic authentication in the smtp and pop-server. This didn't work because no mail was getting through (I probably must change something at the client-side, too?). Unfortunately when we came back online the mailserver collected all the messages at our ISP, but didn't deliver them in the mailboxes (probably 'cause no one was authenticated?). But now they're nowhere to be found. Not even in the /backoffice/connectivity/....folders. How can this be? Is it possible to collect about 300 mails and just let them disappear because there is something wrong with authentication? Or is there a place where exchange keeps them untill something can access them? Thanks for listening..... David Tag: SBS installation confusion Tag: 142768

    - Transfer CAL's to new server?? I'm currently running SBS2000 and will be purchasing a new server soon with either SBS2000 or SBS2003. (Largely depending on the answer to this question.) Can I re-use my CAL's? These have all been used already on the 'old' SBS2000. Are they compatible with SBS2003? Server names will be the same if that makes any difference.

    - RRAS arrors I have an SBS 2000 server that will not allow me start RRAS. When I try to enable RRAS through RRAS monitor, the wizard runs fine, but the service will not start. The event viewer logs event id 7024 with the following message: "the routing and remote access service terminated with service specific error 32797". I have not been able to find much on this topic. I noticed that oledb32.dll and oledb32r.dll were older in the c:\program files\common files\system\ole db directory than in the service pack directory. Also the files would not register. I copied the sevice pack directory variants of the 2 files to the ole db directory and was able to register them, although I still get the same error starting RRAS. I also noticed that some of the other RRAS files noted in the remote access key of the registry (like rasrad.dll and rasauth.dll) would not register either. Any ideas ? I'm stuck and frustrated.

    - Accessing SBS 2000 TS from Internet I am attempting to set up Terminal Server on my SBS 2000 machine to allow remote administration of the SBS from my home. I have worked through configuring an ISA protocol definition for port 3389, publishing the TS using the defined protocol, binding to the internal network adapter, and restarting server. I am still unable to connect to the server from a remote PC running XP and using the Remote Desktop Connection. The SBS has 2 NICs with 1 connected directly to the DSL modem. The remote XP box is on a LAN behind a Linksys router connected to a cable modem. I can ping the SBS box from home, but cannot ping the Linksys from the SBS (maybe to be expected). I am sure I have read a dozen knowledge base articles, but to no avail. This is giving me a headache, any help? Thanks, Mike Tag: SBS installation confusion Tag: 142725

While setting up the server we were asked to create or purchase a certificate. Our external website is held at our ISP and is not connected to our server.

    - InfoPath in Partner Pack?/ Just got the (UK) update to the Partner Pack - and realised that whilst OffiPro2003 is included, I suspect that the InfoPath component is not. I guess because latter belongs to the Pro ENTERPRISE version? If so, this is a bit of a shame. I know that Msft are positioning InfoPath as a corporate thing, but it would have been lovely to be able to 'play' with the concept in a smaller environment. Smaller businesses often deal with numerous forms, and any new tool would be worth exploring. If they really want to beat Adobe PDF in the e-Forms game, it would be good for them to disseminate far and wide - as they usually do. Just a thought. Tag: SBS installation confusion Tag: 142671

    - Email "Received' Time Stamps Could somebody tell me why the server stamps the emails with the received date and time at which they were dowloaded and not when the email was actually received at the ISP? As of now, my emails show up in blocks in 15 minutes intervalw, with the time and date when the server received them. What I would love for it to show is when the email was originally received at the ISP. If Outlook Express can do this when downloading POP3, should the SBS be able to do it? Is there a way to fix this? The reason this matters is that my customer runs an E-Bay business and just had a day of Internet connection outage. He called me to say that he is missing a day's worth email. After some troubleshooting, I found out that he was not missing any emails, but all the emails got stamped with the date and time when the connection was fixed., and the server as able download it, exactly a day later.

    - Off Topic: TightVNC Installation Hello, SBS2K. Win2000/XP clients. I decided to go with TightVNC for remote desktop management. I have a few installation questions though: 1. Is it possible to deploy it (in service mode) to multiple machines remotely? I know that I can place the program file in a shared folder and send all users a message having them execute it, but to be honest, I don't really trust the users to do it. 2. Also, according to the documentation here (http://www.tightvnc.com/winst.html), you can use the same password across multiple machines by copying a registry key. Does anyone know how to do this? I have had no experience with copying registry keys to other machines. Also, can that be done remotely? If it is not possible to deploy it remotely, and I have to move to each machine to do it, is it at least possible to write a script that runs the installation command "tightvnc-1,2,9-setup.exe /sp- /verysilent" (this I can do), then import that registry setting the article referenced above mentions, then perform a reboot (this I also know how to do) so that the service can go ahead and start? If I'm not making sense, please let me know, but I do appreciate any help. Thanks, Chris Tag: SBS installation confusion Tag: 142571

    - Account is locked out Hi SBS 2000, mostly XP pro clients, 1x Win98SE client. Internet access via dial-up on server modem through ISA. Network Associates anti virus. Win98SE client running McAfee v4.5.1 with hotfix, OL2002, Word 97, Excel 97, Sage Line 50 (UK network accounts package). All XP clients are running the same software. A previous failed login issue found on the Win98 client was found to be due to InCD packet writing TSR. The Win98SE client occasionally gets locked out of the network. (SBS Admin console, Users, Account, Account is locked out.) The problem is fixed by unchecking the box, however this happens every few days. The help file says that this can happen after too many incorrect logons, however the user does not login incorrectly. Does anyone know why this user is getting locked out please?

    - ISA Server Is ISA a SOCKS 4 or SOCKS 5 server? Thanks Tag: SBS installation confusion Tag: 142562

Hello
I've setup SBS, but the client configuration requires administrator access.
Am I supposed to log on to each machine as an administrator first to run the
client setup (firewall client etc) or am I doing something wrong? Where can
I find detailed information on installing SBS

Thanks

Rob
