    - hfnetchklt on SBS I am trying to setup something for my clients to manage their server and workstations for updates. The lite version of HFNetChk allows up to 50 computers which is perfect for the SBS network. I know it is recommended to install on a workstation to push the updates as this is what I do on my own network. But can it be installed on the SBS and accessed with Terminal services? I am thinking of installing it on the servers and access it remotely to administer updates. I know that I can probably take control of a workstation also but I didn't want to disrupt someone that might be working on their workstation. Any thoughts? Pros or Cons?

    - All port scan attack Test? I posted a message awhile back about false positives alerts from ISA. I was wondering if anyone with a SBS and alerts setup to email them about Intrusions could try going to this website and seeing if it triggers the alert? It is a legitimate website: http://www.mirror-image.com/ Curious on the results? Rick in the Midwest Tag: re-adding workstation to active directory server Tag: 124688

    - <warning venting ahead> End user awareness To whom it may concern: I have a inside mail account and a public mail account [i.e. my pacbell.net account]. I only pull off email from it when I get home at night. Due to the number of SoBig.F, between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. PDT, my 25MB mailbox got full of Sobig messages... I've now increased the mailbox size to 125MB...hopefully that will hold until I can get home. To those unlucky people reading this vent/rant... I'm sorry. Here goes.... a. In this day and age, to SELTZER COMPUTER, PENNY COMPUTER, and the 3 other identifiable computers that are nailing my mailbox with Sobigs, if you can't even get up to date antivirus on your systems, then unplug yourself from the Internet. You are incapable of securing the most basic of computer functions. We MVPS were pinging back and forth and all agreed that most of us are doing a 'every hour on the hour' pull of new updates from the Trend site. If you are only doing a once a day pull... you aren't protected enough. 2. End users.... You ....yes... you there reading this. If you get an email with a .pif attachment.... trust me... it's ALWAYS a virus. Pif files are never sent by "mere mortals wanting to send Word Documents or other sources of vital information needed to do "real work", PIF files are used in the same vein as .exe files and .bat files. Instruct your clients that even if you fail to do #1, that no one who is a sane person should click and launch a .pif file. Furthermore....... 3. You as the IT consultant network admin...yeah you.... PIF files should ALWAYS be be blocked and stripped off of all email files. I've never received a PIF file in that I've truly wanted.... they're always viruses. And if you allow your end users employees to open up PIF files... then do me a favor and before you leave tonight...yank your rj45 cat 5 connection from the wall so that my mailbox doesn't overflow by the morning. We can blame Microsoft for a lot of things..... this one is our stupidity. We don't HAVE to open up every attachment you know....some of them are NOT good. 11 more emails in the 5 minutes I've taken to type this rant/vent up.... 10 of them Sobig.F files. oh I spoke too soon...and another 10 additional emails hit my box.... all 10 out of 10 SoBigs. -- "Don't lose sight of security. Security is a state of being, not a state of budget. He with the most firewalls still does not win. Put down that honeypot and keep up to date on your patches.

    - Troubles accessing contact list from XP Pro Client. With OL2k2, on XP Pro client, I can not pull the contact list up from the dropdown menu or the fields in an email (To, Cc, Bcc) Though, I am able to get the domain email addresses. OL remembers all the email addresses, if I start to type in an email address not on the domain, it'll allow me to enter it after 3 beginning characters are entered. Is there a way to map this back to the correct contact list?

    - securing SBS (exchange) server Our SBS server has 2 nics, 1-adsl, 1-to network switch, running SBS 2000 c/w ISA. While I was on vacation, our system got hacked & flooded with email, & turned into an open relay. Our supplier support tech. managed to close the relay, but i'm still getting 100's of messages in the "BADMAIL" folder every day. Is this normal or is there a way to block out the badmail? Can I increase the ISA Security?? How? Would a hardware firewall between my 2nd nic & adsl, provide more protection?.....i'm running my own mail server.......have 25 clients Tag: re-adding workstation to active directory server Tag: 124620

    - MS SUS & SBS.. Ive been trying to get SUS working on my SBS 2000 Server to no avail. I have even reinstalled the server from scratch with no luck.. This is the Event Log entry it makes: Event Type: Error Event Source: WUSyncService Event Category: None Event ID: 101 Date: 19/08/2003 Time: 3:37:37 p.m. User: N/A Computer: PARENT Description: Software Update Services encountered a failure during synchronization. View the synchronization log on this server for details of what failed during synchronization. To view the synchronization log, go to the Software Update Services Admin Web site (http://<YourServerName>/SUSAdmin), and click the View synchronization log link.

    - roaming profiles Due to the fact that the user group I am working with has very little experience with roaming profiles they have been using there desktops as a filing system for there documents. This has created some problems for us the profiles got to be and were timing out when trying to sync. back to the server. Now it looks like I have got all of them cleaned back up but I still have a few users that have goodly sized profiles because of info in there app data folder and I am wondering what is the normal size of a good healthy profile as there is nothing on this server to compare to? In the past I have never had this problem before to pay that much attention to there size. So an idea as to where we need to be at would be a great help. Also we have been experiencing network slow downs could this have been linked to the large (1gb+ in some cases) profiles? Tag: re-adding workstation to active directory server Tag: 124602

    - ISP Blocking incoming SMTP Exchange Mail This is wacky. We have several clients that have been using SBS2000 SMTP mail with the their ISP connection through Adelphia. Starting last Thursday, none of them were able to receive mail, including my business. Their MX record is forwarded from where their domain is hosted (not Adelphia). Speaking with Adelphia Tech Support (basically useless), they told me they have put a policy in place last Thursday to block mail to port 135 (not sure what that means)becaus of the worm virus. This is what eventually would go to the Exchange portion of the SBS.. Can somthing be changed on the Exchange end? The only option the people utilizing the the Adelphia cable is to change over to DSL. Tag: re-adding workstation to active directory server Tag: 124587

    - Did i pick you up correctly? //You say i need to read the (EULA) well i suggest you read the post before you reply in such an arrogant manner// You need to exmerge the data from the member server exchange and import it into the SBS exchange then decommision the member server's exchange and sell the software to someone who can use it. //Highly original and extremely helpful. Maybe i could sell it to you along with a joke book and personality transplant// and read the SBS terms of engagement (EULA), SBS exchange doesn't support Exchange connectors. One domain, one Exchange. or pay for and move the exchange fully to the 2nd box. //We have exchange2k on the SBS box and another fully licensed copy of Exchange2k running on the member server.

We did have it working last week though.// BTW, the whole situation sounds wrong. Why do you have a problem? //We have a problem that we can't send/receive mail via our BB router when we try via dial up we get mail no probs. Sounds like a real enough problem to me, oh and we have mailboxes on both server so we know both server send/receive mail via the dial up method// Your SBS hardware is reasonable. //Gee Thanks// Why do you have Advanced Server? freebie? production network? EULA? //We actually have windows 2k server a mistake on my part as i had cut and paste sections from someone else's post into mine as we were having simialr issues// Why does the SBS have one NIC (active) and the member server two? //As i said we run a back end SQL application and had to disable the NIC due to incompatability issues on SBS. The member server has two because it has one facing LAN and the other facing the BB Router// Does that two NIC member server have any sort of firewall? //We have ISA installed on both servers// Take the best of the two boxes, ensure it has hardware RAID, FORMAT C: and do SBS CD1-3 again. //Let me get this straight the ""great SUPER Grumpy" is suggesting a format c: when the only issue we face is not sending/receving e-mail to our mail server via our router?

    - Cannot see shared folders or use outlook after ISA install HELP! Before I installed ISA our users (all on external IPs) accessed our SBS via its external NIC. We were able to use Outlook and access shared folders on the SBS. Today I installed ISA straight from the CD's setup.exe. (I couldn't find an option for it in "Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs -> Add/Remove Windows Components" or in the menu that appears on inserting SBS CD 1.) I also migrated a few machines to the internal network. I've added a packet filter in ISA to allow any protocol in both directions on the external NIC. I've added a protocol rule to allow all protocols to be used by Domain users. WHAT I CAN DO: Use Exchange as per usual via OWA. Ping the IP address of the server. View the server via VNC. WHAT I CAN'T DO: Use Exchange from MS Outlook - emails do not get sent or received. See the server or any other client in Network Neighbourhood. Access any file shares from the server. Ping the server by name. Set the domain for a client - I get the error "The domain name BLANK.BLANK.co.uk is either invalid or does not exist". I have tried using the magic disk but I get the error "The network location cannot be reached... Cannot set computer name BLANK" Could someone please advise me on how to get Outlook and the network shares working?

    - DNS updates Is there any way of speeding up the DNS updates within SBS2K. We have some remote users and use DDNS to connect to these workstations (ftp & remote admin) as their srvice providers will not supply static IP. When the IP changes the DDNS entry is updated almost instantly, & if I ping the DDNS name using a notebook connected directly into our router I can access the site immediately. So the DDNS service & our ISP are doing their job. Problem lies when we try to access it from internal desktops through SBS/ISA, if I ping the DDNS entry the IP address of the remot site could be out of date by as much as a day! So it seems the DDNS tables within ISA do not get constantly updated, more like once a day. Anyone any ideas? Thanks in advance John Tag: re-adding workstation to active directory server Tag: 124550

    - mobile users Hello All, I am running SBS 2000 with latest sp2 for about 20 users. We are using exchange for our email. All desktops are using outlook configured for exchange and all laptops are configured for imap since the laptop users are in sales. Sometimes they do have high speed onthe road but not all the time, so I decided to go with Imap versus the exchange client. OWA is up and running for when they do not have access to their laptops. My problem is, when their mail box gets over 100 mb, they start to have time out issues with the outlook - imap client even when they do have high speed access. Does the outlook - imap client have a size limitation or is there a better way to manage mobile sales force? I know OWA is an option but they users would prefer to just use outlook. Thanks in advance, Robert Tag: re-adding workstation to active directory server Tag: 124530

    - DNS spurious queries Our SBS is connected to the internet via an ISDN Lan modem. Our server has for some time been making contiuous DNS queries to the DNS server at our ISP for numerous addresses which should be local to the SBS server. Examples are: _LDAP._TCP.DC._MSDCS.ELMMAXDOMAIN.ELMMAX.CO.UK _KERBEROS._TCP.ELMMAXDOMAIN.ELMMAX.CO.UK _LDAP _LDAP._TCP.GC._MSDCS.ELMMAXDOMAIN.ELMMAX.CO.UK _KPASSWD._UDP.ELMMAXDOMAIN.ELMMAX.CO.UK GC._MSDCS.ELMMAXDOMAIN.ELMMAX.CO.UK and various other combinations. ELMMAXDOMAIN is our local computer network domain and 'elmmax.co.uk' is our URL, all which are properly registered on the server when it was set up. How do I stop this. I tried using the local DNS table in the LAN modem but this has run out of entries and isn't a proper solution anyway. Any clues please as the DNS server is something I have avoided up to now. Simon.

    - Router issues revisited. OK, I think I've settled on the Netopia 9120-XL. Is this overkill? http://www.cdw.com/shop/products/default.asp?EDC=393264 I can find it cheaper, I'm just wondering if all the bells and whistles are overkill. I know people are doing VPN's without fancy VPN add ons for their routers. I already have a modem, but the server doesn't like it at all, so it seemed to make some sense to have the backup dial out connection removed from the box. (the existing modem is a 3Com/USR and magically diasbles itself all the time, requiring 2 reboots and a reinstall) I guess as a further question, I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong in ISA. If I hook our dedicated IP modem to the servers second NIC and run a probe test on ports I keep finding 80 and 443 are open even though I put rules in to explicity block all requests from outside to these ports. I'm using the "Shields Up" Port Probe feature from GRC.com I'm getting the general feeling that Mr. Gibson is a bit of an extremist who isn't giving people the whole picture, but his tools seems to provide a pretty basic service in letting you know what is exposed on your server. Anyhow, how come these ports keep showing up as open when I've 'closed' them. Am I missing something? Thanks again. Tag: re-adding workstation to active directory server Tag: 124503

    - Secure OWA We have an SBS2000 Box sitting on our 10/100 Network with around 30 clients. The SBS Box has two LAN NICs, one for LAN and one for WAN, where the WAN nic is connected to a firewall then a DSL router to provide 24/7 secure Internet Access. What we want to do is open port 80 on the firewall and allow people to browse for OWA (we have a static IP from our DSL provider). Although the concept will work, the users will be dial-up users who will access their mailbox whilst they are on the road using laptops. My only cause for concern is security...if I open port80 on our firewall, this would mean that I have opened up a door to the SBS. Although I have heard of SSL etc..., I want to be able to read and follow any white-papers or just user feedback on how to go about this. Although the SBS2000 box is patched etc..., just opening a firewall for incoming port80 is a security risk here...so I need to find out how people do secure OWA from the outside world to their SBS2000 running Exch2000. Thanks in advance, skc Tag: re-adding workstation to active directory server Tag: 124460

    - Exchange email attachment Is it possible to append a privacy comment on all outgoing emails sent from exchange server2000 (part of the SBS 2000 setup)? My customer requires that every outgoing email to have a privacy statement attached. I suggested adding a signature to outlook but the customer would like the server to do it automatically. I can't see such a feature in exchange but there may be some add on package. ANy ideas would be appreciated. regards Merv N Tag: re-adding workstation to active directory server Tag: 124450

    - repost: ISA logs I reposted it because it went under a different post. So I fugured if it did so with me, it might do so with other people, so here it goes: What do you guys use to read the ISA logs? If there isn't any good program available, I'm willing to write one, and share it. But if there is already a program that works good, then there isn't a point doing so. I've already got some great ideas, but lets first see what comes from here... HC Tag: re-adding workstation to active directory server Tag: 124443

    - Problem with SUS Hi, I wonder what is wrong with my SUS setup. The clients do poll the server (I get lines like this on the "Windows update.log" file on the client computer) 2002-03-25 19:08:47 Success IUENGINE Querying software update catalog from http://intranetSUS/autoupdate/getmanifest.asp But none of the updates actually get installed. Users don't get the yellow balloon and none of the logs indicate that anything was actually installed. Any ideas ? Petri Tag: re-adding workstation to active directory server Tag: 124435

    - logging ISA Logs ISA Logs in a Text File. On http://www.isaserver.org/tutorials/How_to_setup_SQL_Logging _in_ISA_Server.html I see that you can log files using MSSQL. Is that the SQL that is provided with the SBS? I think they are talking about SQL Enterprise or something. Can I use somehting like access or something simple to log my ISA reports & logs?

    - mail record http://servername/exchange Hello, Q1. I'm hosting my own email via SBS2000. I tell me ISP to point the mx record to the IP address of the SBS, but whats the name of the host that I tell them? mail.domian.com? Is that the default? Can I change that to something else, because my ISP will be using mail.domain.com (my backup for e-mail) Q2. When using OWA. It's always the IP_or_host_name/exchange? Can I change the exchange to something else? or can I make it like: mail.domain.com ? Thank You. Tag: re-adding workstation to active directory server Tag: 124433
