    - Shared Fax Service - Retries Exceeded When I attempt to send a fax from a client PC through the Microsoft Shared Fax Service I receive the following error in the Application Event Viewer Section Event ID : 32079 "An error was encountered while preparing to send the fax. The service will not attempt to resend the fax. Please close other applications before resending." If I look in the shared fax outbox, the status of the fax I tried to send shows 'Retries exceeded' I have reset the number of retries on the server to the maximum and stopped and restarted bot the Fax server, and restarted the server a number of times but still cannot send faxes. Any help appreciated. Tag: limitation of sbs Tag: 130820

    - Opening a port on ISA We use a piece of Software over the web which entails having a certain port open, RDP TCP port 3389 to be exact. When we try to connect to the web address whilst connected to the network Proxy we are able to connect to the web address but unable to open the terminal services applet for this software. All that opens is a blank white Terminal services Applet Window. However, if we logon to the same pc as a standalone user rather than part of the domain and then connect via a dial up connection the Temrinal services over the web works fine. Could someone please tell us how they open a port on ISA so that we can be sure we are following the correct procedure. cheers Tag: limitation of sbs Tag: 130818

    - telnet to my router.... as this ng suggested me some weeks ago, I removed raspppoe from my sbs server, I bought a router that supports pppoe protocol, and I connected it to the second nic of the machine, run ICW and everything worked fine..... All the configuration of the router (ip, username, password) has been made using the software provided with the router, but if I want to set port forwarding (ie to connect remotely to my server) I have to open a telnet session to the router.....but when I digit from the prompt "telnet 192.168.1.254" (the router's ip), after about a minute I receive an error "unable to open a connection to host....". I tried to start manually the telnet service on the sbs2000 box, but nothing changed...... I'm sure the router works correctly, since if I connect it temporarily to a win xp notebook (with the only nic configured as the server's secondary), I'm able to open the telnet session.....but I'd like to work with the router connected to SBS..... can you help me??? thnx bye Tag: limitation of sbs Tag: 130791

    - MS Retail Mgmt System Pls excuse this posting here, but this was the closest MS newsgroup I could find...my company purchased MS's RMS (Retail Mgmt Sys) software. We run Lawson financials. And now we discovered that MS RMS does not have any standard import/export/scheduling functionality, APIs, etc. for getting data into/from the SQL Server database it uses.

    - Spam issue Greetings Everyone, My SBS 2000 is setup with a static ip address and a registered domain for my email. I tryed sending an email to a client this morning and recieved a return. Here's what is said. Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients. Subject: Good Morning Kara Sent: 9/18/2003 8:04 AM The following recipient(s) could not be reached: ggentile@tampabay.rr.com on 9/18/2003 8:04 AM The destination system is currently not accepting any messages.

Is there a way for me to close any open loops within this system I am not aware of??? I am some what familiar with the Exchange Server and am the only person on it running the email configurations. Please help me. I need to get my SBS off the spam block lists. Otherwise I will not be able to communicate with everyone. Thank you in advance for you time and cooperation.

    - contemplating SBS for a small high school greetings, would SBS (2K or 2K3) be a decent choice small high school with 40 total computers, 20 of which are a in a student lab? the available h/w is an older dual processor Dell (P3/700MhZ processors) with 256MB RAM and 20GB (RAID) disk. AD, e-mail, internet content filtering, file sharing/printing and some non-heavy DB usage are the "killer" apps for them. is the h/w config enough? thx, boB Tag: limitation of sbs Tag: 130769

    - Shared Fax Question. I have noticed that when faxes come in that the Administrator and anyone else with Admin rights can see all the faxes that have come via the Fax Console but a standard user cannot. Without giving a standard use Admin rights, how would you go about letting a group of user see all of the faxes via the Fax Console. Thanks in advance SC Tag: limitation of sbs Tag: 130761

I have made all changes to LAT and stuff to no avail. I can ping the modem and it is connected to ISP ok.. Just no traffic through ISA. It says gateway cant find IP address of WEB pages.

    - TSAdmin connection to SBS via 56K Modem I would like to set-up to TSAdmin connect to my SBS. The office and my home are both in rural areas were there is only 56K dial-up internet access available. The server has two USR V-Everything external modems with one set for fax only and the other set for internet only. Can either of these be shared with dial-in or do I need another one? If sahrable which should I use? I beleive that I'll need to set permissions to allow dial-in on the server, Install the Remote Desktop Client at home and set-up a new connection at home. Does the Remote Desktop Client initialte the dial-up and connection? Is there a link that anyone can provide with a step by step guide to make sure I don't miss anything. On my final install & set-up of the SBS box I has issues with the dial-up connection and internet access that took a while to resolve. The bax has run without any trouble for months now AND I DO NOT WANT TO SCREW-UP MY CONNECTION AGAIN!!! whoops, a bad memory. I was going to try this back in July, but chickened out. I would really benefit from being able to connect to the server like I was sitting at it on occassion after hours, month ends etc. This would save me rather the 30 minute one way drive at least once a week when I would like to check something. If in the same connection I can access my workstation like I am sitting at it that would be a bonus since I could run various reports that take a long time before I leave for the office, they would be done when i get there. Thanks in advance for any help... Maureen Tag: limitation of sbs Tag: 130748

    - Trouble Accessing IIS from the Internet Hi, I have an on-going problem and as such have not found a solution. SBS SP1a, 2 NIC setup (internal and external IP's on seperate NIC's) and I cannot access OWA, TSWEB, ADMIN web, PRINTERS or any other folder in IIS from the internet. I can access the above mentioned on the LAN using internal and external IP addresses (http://server/exchange or http://212.32.58.xxx/exchange), but when I try and connect through the internet I can see in the IE status bar that the page is loading, eventually timing out and displaying 'website cannot be found'. I don't even get prompted to enter a username / password. I have checked ISA and IIS settings as per MS, IIS is listening on the internal network, ISA is configured to pass all incoming requests on port 80 to IIS. I have checked folder permissions in Windows Explorer and IIS snap-in. Authentication is configured as basic and integrated. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    - Portscan alerts from DNS server ip Every now and then I get ISA portscan alerts coming from our isp's dns servers. dns works fine otherwise. Isp's dns is configured as forwarder to dns server on sbsserver. Clients send their queries to sbs box, they get the setting from dhcp, so no client tries to get directly to ips's dns. What is wrong here? Can it be that sometimes the response comes so late that the isa has already closed the dynamic return port? Or could it be that the external interface's dns settings point to isp's dns? - This was configured with the connection wizard tough. thanks, Jussi Tag: limitation of sbs Tag: 130723

    - Did SUS behaviour regarding service packs just change without any warning? Great :-( [Crossposted to SBS groups as a heads-up for the SBS SUS users....] I've just noticed that my local SUS has downloaded the network install of W2k SP4 and WinXP SP1. I'm sure SUS1.0 SP1 said that it wouldn't/couldn't deploy service packs, only hotfixes; yet when I check http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/windowsupdate/sus/susfaq.asp it has been updated (17/Sep/2003) to say that SUS now *does* deploy service packs... Huh? Did I miss something here? Was there a *notice* of any kind that SUS behaviour was going to change? I'm subscribed to the "SUS content notification change" mailing list, yet I didn't receive any messages letting me know this was going to happen. Instead of changing this silently, how about rolling this feature out as a SUS SP2? Can I turn this feature off? I hope so, but I bet you can't. Why? I've got three production servers, at three separate sites, each with SUS but with only an ISDN 64kbit internet internet connection; I guess over the next few days they are each going to swamp the internet connection for hours while they try and download two service packs in full, but on these sites (a) I only have W2k systems, no XPs at all, and (b) all my W2k machines already have SP4. So I've got 3 x 250MB+ of download headed my way for absolutely no reason, and I can't prevent it, unless I disable SUS and go back to manually running a WindowsUpdate. :-( *** Can I make a plea to the SUS guys, and MS in general? *PLEASE* don't just silently change product features without giving us any notice - it usually causes grief for somebody. *** Check out some quotes from threads in the SUS group and see just how well handled announcing this change: http://groups.google.com/groups?threadm=uQe7BFVeDHA.2300%40TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl "But by the end of this month SUS would be handling service packs. To start with W2K SP4 will be available through SUS. Jose" "So is it SP4 for Win2K that's changing or SUS? I'm a bit confused... Tom S. BTW, [Jose] what's your affiliation with MS? They wouldn't confirm or deny anything for me..." "It is SUS that is changing. It will be released as a completely new version, called SUS 2.0 I think. Torgeir Bakken (MVP)" "But not by the end of the month I am told. If you know differently, please elaborate. The new version was scheduled to be released early next year. I would understand it if MS might want to speed up the release and I'm sure it would be welcome. Thanks. Tom S" (thread ends with no response from Jose) and another one: http://groups.google.com/groups?threadm=407c01c37c49%247a3275d0%24a501280a%40phx.gbl "How can I get the Service Pack 4 on to a computer without internet access? [...] Gerd" "You need to download the network installation package. Neo" "Probably by end of this month... SUS will deliver Service packs starting with W2K SP4 and WinXP SP1. thanks, Jose" "Are you sure SUS will be delivering service packs? Did you hear that from somewhere?

    - DNS cache problem I am trying to resolve an issue with caching. I first noticed the problem when I tried to conduct a recursive test within the dns console. I then looked within the console from the advanced view and noticed that nothing was cached.. no root-servers ..nothing. What do you think could possibly cause this problem. DNS appears to be configured correctly. The only thing that has been done to the server around the time of this problem was the application of the "blaster" patch. Any ideas?

    - Citrix Server Publishing and ISA Clients outside ISA can't connect to Citrix server published through ISA. I can Telnet from outside on port 1494 to Citrix server, no problem. I can telnet from Citrix server itself via loopback (as a recommended test from Citrix KB art CTX075552 to verify connectivity). Clients on the inside (behind ISA) have no problems connecting. Using Netmon, I can see the external Telnets to port 1494, but when attempting to connect from full PN client, can't see connection attempt in Netmon. ISA is configured as described in art CTX482629 "How to publish a Citrix Server Behind an ISA FW" These steps are identical to MS KB article on the same subject,. All steps were successfully completed. Packet filters for TCP 1494 and 80 are in place, Protocol Description is configured, ISA server publishing wiz was used to publish Citrix XP server and altaddr was set on Citrix server so that Citrix server has alternate address of external ISA address. PN is configured as required, server address is ISA extrenal, Use Alt Addr for FW is checked, etc. Any other troubleshooting procedures I can try? I have successfully connected to MF servers at other locations (not behind ISA, but behind PIX). Can't figure out what is missing??? This one's driving me nuts because as configured it should work.

    - DNS problems browsing in 2-NIC + router ADSL configuration I've upgraded an SBS2000 system from dial-up to ADSL. I'm having problems browsing the Internet, which seem to be DNS related. The server configuration is as per 2 NIC, dynamic IP address & router from www.smallbizserver.net. As far as I can tell, I've done the necessary setup: ICW has been run, the ISP's DNS records appear in the forwarders section of the server's DNS system, etc. The internet connection works with a workstation connected directly to the router, but not through the server. It is possible to successfully ping an external IP address from the server or a workstation, but not a domain name. Nothing requiring a domain name works, including browsing. DNS works for internal computers, but doesn't seem to be working for anything external. Can anybody suggest where to go next? Tag: limitation of sbs Tag: 130626

    - 'Read Only" Files Hi all sorry if this is the wrong group to post this, but i have a problem (not a personal one) that I hope somebody on here may have come across, Scenario SBS2K Server fresh install with data transfered from old NT4.4 SBS server. 10 Windows 98 workstations running Office 97 SP2b prior to the transfer of the documents from the old server all users could access all Word/Excel/Access files and save/update the documents. Since the data migration to the new server when they open a document that already exists in the Company folder to update it, they get a 'Read Only' document, when you check the properties of the document it is not read only, I have checked the properties of the company folder and 'all users' have full control over everything in the directory propergated down. a simple fix is to save the document with a new name, but there is over 2GB of data in the company folder so they are not going to be happy about doing that. has anybody come across this before and if so how did you fix it? I have done a quick search on google to no avail. Many thanks in advance. Allan Tag: limitation of sbs Tag: 130584

    - ISA Server 2000 Achieves EAL2 Common Criteria Certification I just ran across this post from Mike Chan (MS) in the ISA newsgroups and thought I'd share: ISA Server 2000 Achieves EAL2 Common Criteria Certification As part of our commitment to provide customers with a Trustworthy Computing platform, Microsoft has submitted ISA Server 2000 for Common Criteria certification. In September, 2003, ISA Server 2000 achieved certification for Common Criteria Evaluation Assurance Level 2 (EAL 2). By enabling a complete, transparent analysis of ISA Server 2000 by the Common Criteria's independent auditors, Microsoft continues to make significant investments in building trust in the security of our products. ISA Server CC certification, coupled with Windows 2000 Server's EAL4+ Flaw Remediation Certification is an important consideration for organizations requiring Common Criteria Certification. Common Criteria: A Global Security Standard Common Criteria (CC) is a framework for evaluating the security of IT products and systems. CC certification is recognized by governments and customers worldwide as a critical measure of quality. CC certification is increasingly used as one of the key criteria for many Request for Proposals (RFPs) issued by local, federal, and international government agencies, and is also becoming a key differentiator for many private sector industries such as finance and healthcare. You can read more about CC at http://www.commoncriteria.org/ and at http://www.commoncriteria.org/ Microsoft's Continued Commitment to CC Certification Robust, objective third-party auditing, such as the certification process involved in Common Criteria, is critical for establishing trust in security products. It represents a significant investment, and it is something that all customers should evaluate when making technology purchases. This is a first step and we are committed to pursue higher level certifications. -- Mike Chan Technical Product Manager (ISA Server/VPN) Security Business Unit Microsoft Corporation This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. -- Chad A Gross - SBS Rocks!

    - Outlook Global Contacts I would like to find out what the best practice is for maintaining global contacts in Outlook. I have created a "Contacts" orgainizational unit in Active Directory under the "MyBusiness" group. In this container I create all my "Contact" objects. This is were I plan to enter all contact information for external clients that are not users of my network. These contacts are then visible within Outlook under the global address book. The problem I see is that a user cannot maintain these contacts from within Outlook. Even logging on as Administrator, I receive the same message stating the global address book cannot be edited. Is there anyway I can grant a user rights to Add/Delete/Edit these global contacts in Outlook, or can they only be maintained within Small Business Server Administrator? Also, we have about 100 contacts that need to be added to this address book. Is there a way of importing a this data from a text file or Excel Spreadsheet? Thanks for your assistance, Don Tag: limitation of sbs Tag: 130572

    - Upgrading to a different box Hello, We currently bought a new server without a server OS on it. More RAM, faster processor, etc. The current server has SBS 2000 with Exchange, SQL, ISA etc. Does anyone know the best way for me to transfer all of the users and groups and the rest of the AD settings to the new server? I would also like to transfer all of the mailboxes and their contents to the new server too. I don't mind installing everything or configuring the other settings for the server. I just want to make sure that the AD settings, user and group settings, and mailboxes are the same. I currently installed Windows 2000 Server (1st part of SBS 2000 installation) on the new system. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. Chris Tag: limitation of sbs Tag: 130567

    - Exchange SP3 Install Problem Greetings I've inherited support of a SBS 2000 server. Whenever I attempt to install Exchange SP3, the install bombs after a few seconds with a fatal error, referring me to the eventlog.txt file for further information, the pertinent bits of which are detailed below. The eventlog error text mentions the Microsoft Search a couple of times. I can confirm that this service is installed and it has been re-installed to try and solve the problem. I have also tried the Exchange SP with the search service both stopped and started, and I have also tried the install after stopping every non-vital service on the server, again with the same results. Exchange is currently at SP1, and the update has been tried with Windows 2000 at firstly SP3 and then SP4, with the same results. A search of the MS Knowledgebase draws a blank, and a search of the newsgroups reveals several people detailing a similar problem, but no solution has ever been posted. Thank you in advance for any help you may offer.

    - VPN setup on SBS2000 We recently completed a migration from SBS 4.5 to 2K. We've set up the VPN with the same characteristics as were in place on the former server but once we connect (and the RRS console shows us connected, we get authenticated and get a proper VPN static pool IP) we have no network connectivity to anything; that is I can neither ping IP addresses nor browse by WINS name. Anyone come up against this issue yet? Thanks, Jim Tag: limitation of sbs Tag: 130560

    - WINS problems I have installed the current SP for windows SBS and I have essentially lost the ablity to use Exchange server. Upon investigation I have noticed that my WINS isn't running in the services. So I tried to start it only to get an error saying that this application wasn't found. Is there a way to reinstall the application without blowing away the database? Tag: limitation of sbs Tag: 130554

Sorry if it is a FAQ, but I've not founded anything about that on NG.
I wish to know the limitations of SBS and/or limitations of products inside
it.

Many thanks
