    - only admins can fax I have SBS 2000 set up with XP clients and an external US Robotics fax modem setup for shared faxing. They were able to fax until I made some security changes. Now the only people who can fax are those in the Administrators group. I have gone through and checked every fax security related thing I can find and am still unsuccessful at getting anyone but an Administrator to fax. When a user tries to print an error occurs on the server saying it failed. Any ideas? Tag: VPN resolution problem Tag: 148501

    - Does Shared Fax support non english characters? I have a client that is trying to send out faxes with Chinese characters in them. However in the fax the Chinese characters are being replaced with square boxes. Chinese characters are installed on the server and they do display in the Shared Fax service console in fields such as recipient name etc. Howerver if you double click on a fax to open it up in imaging you can see that in the acutal fax all Chinese characters are squares. Is this a lack of character support in shared fax or could this be something else? Cheers Damon Tag: VPN resolution problem Tag: 148498

    - SMTP Connector question Last week I changed the way we send out email from Exchange. Previously I had been sending directly to recipient using DNS, but due to IP blocking issues decided to relay all email from my office thru our ISP mail server. At first glance it appeared to work with no problem. But after a few hours, it stops working, and the mail ends up sitting on my server in the "unreachable destination" queue. To set this up I added the ISP mail server in the smarthost field under the advanced tab in the delivery section of the Default SMTP virtual server properties. I also added our ISP username and password in the outbound security tab on the delivery page. I then added the same smarthost to the property pages of the Small Business SMTP Connector. All seems to work well for a short time, then all outgoing mail stops. Am I doing something wrong? To release the mail that gets held up all I need to do is switch back to using DNS in the SMTP connector. Tag: VPN resolution problem Tag: 148491

    - SBS2k and other 2kServers I have a SBS 2k machine on my network. The way I had it join my existing network was to install only 2k server on it, transfer the FSMO roles and then upgrade to SBS2k. Everything worked just fine. but what I am seeing is that when I create a new user on the SBS machine, it creates the user on the other server (like it should) but it has the account disabled. And on the 2k machine when looking at a users Properties, the tabs for exchange, email address, etc is not there. I doubled checked to be sure the FSMO roles are all set on SBS and there are. Also, if I create an account on the regular 2kServer machine, the account gets replicated to the SBS machine, but when I go to the SBS machine, the tab for Email Address's is not there. Any ideas???

    - VPN issues Our companies VPN has been configured but is very much at the testing stage. We use ISA server2k and SBS2k The VPN Seems to work ok and a test user can logon to the network Via VPN. Here are a list of the problems we are encountering when we have a live VPN connection. 1 - He can't browse the network via network neighboruhood. 2 - Server name can't be resolved from start>run \\servname 2 - He can't ping the servers local address 192.168.16.1 3 - He is assigned an IP Address of 169.254.23.100 (obviously that's why he can't ping the server but if the address is suppposed to be assigned DHCP well why isn't he getting an IP in the 192.168.16.xxx range as it is the DHCP server for the local network he is loggin on to).

    - Preventing users downloading software I have just installed my first SBS 2000, and everything is fine. We often have temporary staff working on site who need access to the internet a part of their work, but a couple of them are downloading software and adding mesaging services etc. Is there a way SBS can restrict these downloads through the security or user settings - we have roaming profiles and so other options require far more work. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Chris. Tag: VPN resolution problem Tag: 148451

    - the 15 minute pop equation I just don't understand what the problem is. WHY do people wish to reduce the pop connector collection time? Well, actually, NO, that's not the question. The question is more like 'WHY do people put so much effort into reducing the pop connector retrieval interval?'. With maybe a corollary question of 'WHY is it so damned important?'. I was dealing with a company for tech support today, the guy emailed me some notes. As we receive via SMTP no POP connector delay was involved. While I was on the phone I heard him reading the email, he suggested he was forwarding it to me and I could hear him typing as he asked me to pause while I was giving him my email address, he then suggested 'you should get it soon' so I'm supposing he had actually hit the 'send' button at this time. I also called someone else for support yesterday and went through a similar scenario. Both emails were simple text messages. One arrived inside the 15 minutes, the other took 3 hours. One was from Trend Micro, the other was from Microsoft. This is the nature of internet email. An old quote about internet email suggests '90% gets delivered inside a few minutes, 5% takes a couple of days, 5% goes into the big pop box in the sky and no-one knows why.' I also receive via SMTP at home. If the girl next door emailed me I would receive it with minimal delay. If she expected me to get off my ass and knock on her door within 15 minutes she better be offering something better than dinner to fix her computer. I just don't understand what the frenzy is. On the other hand, there are very good reasons why after attempting POP collection once a short delay should occur before another pop collection is attempted. Many mail systems (and I'm probably talking *nix here, particularly *nix mail server farms) 'lock' the mailbox during delivery, if you attempt to access the mailbox before the lock is released it will error. The previous POP conversation can be complete but because the server is handling thousands of requests and also doing it's own housekeeping the mailbox may still be locked. I'm not sure but I think the lock exists to eradicate the chance of duplicate delivery. ie. (if the mailbox lock was not implemented) popconversation1 'HI, any new mail?' popconversation1 'Yep, sure is, 1*10MB message' popconversation1 'give it to me baby' Transfer starts popconversation2 'HI, any new mail?' popconversation2 'Yep, sure is, 1*10MB message' popconversation2 'give it to me baby' Transfer starts some time later more pop conversations get initiated and we've got more transfers of the same message which eventually may end. The client then has multiple copies of the same message which transferred slowly because they all happened at the same time,,, and gets rather confused what to do with them. Just my take on the issue. I must be 'in a mood'. IF your users DEMAND immediate reception of mail tell them the best you can do is a permanent IP and SMTP delivery, which may result in delays of several minutes to several days, but won't include an additional 14 minutes and 59 seconds.

    - Restoring Exchange 2000 to new SBS hardware We have just bought a new RAID server to replace our existing IDE SBS 2000 server and so far i've managed to replicate the Active Directory info to a temporary Windows 2000 server, taken it offline, and replicated it to our new server using the exact same machine name. I've managed to seize the FSMO roles and can get an existing workstation to log on to both the old and new servers, but i'm having problems installing Exchange 2000 back on to the new server. On running the installation file from the third SBS CD, i initially got the error message:- The component "Microsoft Exchange Messaging and Collaboration Services" cannot be assigned the action "Install" because: A server object for this server ("SERVERNAME") already exists in the Administrative Group "first administrative group". You must either remove this server object before installing, or run setup with the "DisasterRecovery" switch if you are attempting to recover this server. On looking at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;298068 , i've attempted to run the setup.exe /disasterrecovery command, but i get this error instead:- Please use the Exchange Administration Snap-in to ensure you have a valid Exchange Server Object for this server for which you are running Setup in recovery mode. Anyone got any ideas?? Thanks in advance Dan Williams. Tag: VPN resolution problem Tag: 148432

    - OT: 98/ME support is extended [no this is not a joke] CRN : Daily Archives : Microsoft Extends Paid Support On Windows 98 Until June 2006 : 2:14 PM EST Mon., Jan. 12, 2004: http://www.crn.com/sections/BreakingNews/dailyarchives.asp?ArticleID=47165 I'm sorry but I don't think this is a good decision at all. On the one hand they do the right thing and take out TS in application mode on our domain controllers, and then on the other hand they continue to support Win98. Makes it a little hard for me to stand up here and say "Microsoft gets security" when they will continue to support a platform that has none until Longhorn comes out.

    - Exchange - Missing Attachments Hi there, We are using small business server 2000 as our email server and I am having a small problem with it. When a certain customer sends us emails with attachments, the attachments are being stripped out of the emails by exchange. e.g They sent us an email with an attachment yesterday. When I looked in the logs for the smtp virtual server on exchange it said the message was ~53K. When the user looked at the message in Outlook it said the message was 4K and the attachment was missing. I assume there is something slightly awry in the format of the emails from this particular user that is upsetting exchange when it is processing the email. Has anyone had this problem and any suggestions as to how I might solve ? Is there a way of capturing what the smtp server sees for an email before it flows into the bowels of exchange never to be seen again in it's original smtp format ? To work around this problem we have been having this customer send email to people's hotmail/yahoo mail accounts. They don't seem to have a problem with the email attachments from this customer.

    - Post Exchange SP3 Problem Hi all I have scanned recent posts with no avail! I ran the exchange SP3 (then SBS SP1a) and things have not worked since! I cannot start any of the Exchange services and most of the menus are greyed out! (Mount Store etc). I've tried a couple of things that I've found using Google but all without success. Exchange will not reinstall - gets to about 80% then comes up with errors! Any help would be really appreciated. Many thanks Mark F Tag: VPN resolution problem Tag: 148344

    - Frontpage can't publish Can anyone talk me through how to get Frontpage (2000) to publish? SBS2000 (all patches & ISA used) via router on static IP on adsl - client pc can browse internet fine, however any attempt to use Frontpage to either upload site or to open site on-line fails (just sits there appearing to be logging on, yet nothing happens). Site is not the problem as using a separate pc on a home adsl connection with router but no SBS/ISA gives immediate access! Thanks Tag: VPN resolution problem Tag: 148338

    - Exchange / Outllook Synchronization On my laptop for some reason after upgrading from Outlook 2002 to Outlook 2003 offline folders do not synchronize after clicking Send/Receive (or pressing F9) any more and neither do they automatically synchronize on exit. Short of selecting each folder and then selecting "Tools / Send Receive / This Folder", I cannot get the folders to synchronize All worked fine before. What have I done (or need to do)? Thanks Paul Tag: VPN resolution problem Tag: 148330

Hello all. I sure would appreciate any help anyone might
be able to offer.

Here is my problem. My client has a vanilla installation
of SBS2000 (2 NICs, ADSL connection, using ISA as
firewall, Win2K SP4, SBS2000 SP1). When we create a
virtual private network connection from a Windows XP
client, we have no problems - we can see the server and
ping it successfully, see shares on the server etc.

However, when we connect through VPN using a Windows 2000
client, we can't see squat - can't ping 192.168.16.2,
can't see server or shares.

I have checked DNS and WINS, and everything seems in
order.

Any suggestions or other things to check?

Thanks!

Steve
