    - Duplicate e-mails - KB 835734 I had a call this morning telling me that our mail server was sending out large volumes of an e-mail that was sent to us. As it happens I think I've resolved the immediate problem but I was told our server required patching and was referred to knowledge base article 835734. Indeed the article describe the problem exactly and I immediately downloaded the patch, however, it won't install and I've now realised the article relates to SBS 2003 but we're running SBS 2000. Does anyone know if there is a similar patch for SBS 2000? I've tried various searches but found nothing so far. Any help would be appreciated as I'd rather not have a repeat of the problem.

    - Terminal server policy settings... I am using some of the Terminal Server settings in group policy BUT I am NOT using the "Sessions" setting entitled "Sets a time limit for active but idle terminal server sessions". it is currently set to 'Not configured". Instead, I have this setting configured in the users active directory profile on an individual basis as some users are different than others. It is set on the 'Sessions' tab of their AD profile - and is typically set to 30 minutes. However, today I noticed that a user is logged onto our win2K3 server and has been active and idle (not disconnected) for over 2 hours - when his settings only allows for 30 minutes!!! Why might it be that he has not been yet disconnected? (which is what I set to happen once a session limit has been reached) I should also mention that when I attempt to remote control this users session, it appears to hang. Could this be why this particular session is unable to be disconnected in the time frame stated? Thanks, Brad Tag: My new satellite website, please check it out Tag: 179808

    - Shutting down exchange and SQL server gracefully... We have a Windows 2000 SBS running Exchange and SQL Server. We have a Smart UPS attached. We also hav a few other servers with Smart UPS's attached. We are runing the powerchute business edition basic. I have noticed that if we were to upgrade to the 'Delux' version of the Powerchute Business Edition, it indicates that one of the advanced features it has is application shutdown for SQL Server abnd Exchange server (among other apps). My question is this... Is this something that we should really have? What are the risks by not having that? Also, is there a way through a shutdown script that this can be done instead of having to purchase the software? If so, I could just set it up to run in a shutdown script... (through the Smart-UPS) Thanks, Brad Tag: My new satellite website, please check it out Tag: 179796

    - terminal server group policy I have set the 'Environment' tab in many users AD user profile to start a particular application at logon. This has been working just fine - UNTIL I modifed a GPO by adding the terminal server policies to my Windows 2000 SBS machine and then set some of the computer 'Terminal Server' policies settings. I did NOT set the policy where you can specify a program to run at start up entitled 'Start a program on connection'. It shows as 'Not Configured' for both the computer and user configurations. However, now what is happening is that when a user logs onto our terminal server they are seeing the desktop instead of it starting the application I specified in the environment settings in their user profile. Any idea what may be happening here and what I can do tomake sure that the startup program specified in a users profile is run when they log on?

    - Migratign to Windows Server 2003 AD I have a client with a single Small Business Server 2000. We need to upgrade to upgrade to Windows Server 2003. I am aware of the ADMT which can transfer user and computer accounts to a new domain, but this involves quite a bit of work on each workstation and would like to maintain the existing active directory domain to avoid that. Is it possible to do the upgrade in the following way? (I know it may be a long shot, but my creative brain has been working over-time) 1) Install new Windows 2000 Server, promote to DC in SBS domain. 2) Disconnect SBS server from network. 3) Seize FSMO Roles on Windows 2000 DC. 4) Install new Windows 2003 server, do forest prep, domain prep, etc on 2000 DC, then promote to DC in 2000 domain. 5) Transfer FSMO roles to 2003 6) Demote Windows 2000 DC to member server. 7) Restore SQL and file data from backup. If we manage to successfully do the upgrade in this way, will we be left with an Active Directory with the same limitations as SBS 2000 e.g. only 50 workstations, no domain trusts, etc.?

    - backup DC GPO settings... We have a Windows 2000 small business Server and are using a WIndwos 2003 server as a backup domain controller. There are group policy settings for terminal server (both computer and user settings) on the win2K3 server that do not exist on the win2K small bus server. I would like to use some of these policy settings in our environment if I can. It appears that I can set policy settings on the backup domain controller (WIn2K3) that I do not have on the win2K small bus server and it works - but will a replicate from the primary back to the backup erase them I wonder? I also noticed that when I went back over to teh win2K small bus server, and called up the group policy, I got errors when looking at the GPO setting that included the terminal server stuff I had changed on the win2k3 server. Is there a way that I can somehow ADD those settings from the win2k3 server to the older win2K small bus server so that it does not matter which server I use to manage the GPO settings?

    - Replacing BDC Server This small company is on an extrememly tight budget. We replaced last year the primary server with a Proliant ML370. Our backup server is a sever year old dell optiplex desktop. I really want to replace it but management keeps up this financial pressure. Obviously another Proliant ML370 is out of the question. I'm thinking if I can find a server replacement for $500ish management would give in. Is there an afforadable backup domain server I can investigate? If it's new with warranty that would help; but, I'm thinking a used one may be my only option. Thanks for an insight into a small business with a tight budget needs for a server replacement.

    - Determine if SBS installed On an older server (didn't initially configure) I'm receiving a warning that the "License usage for a product licensed in per server mode is nearing the maximum number of licenses purchased. Consult the Application event log or License Manager from the Administrative Tools folder for more information." When I try to go to Licensing in Control Panel or Administrative tools, I receive the following: "Not available in Microsoft BackOffice Small Business Server. To add client licenses, choose Manage Server from the Start Menu and select About Small Business Server" Manage Server is not available from the Start Menu. I suspect the original configurator of the server must have did a modified installation, though I'm not sure why. Is there an executible I could run to access this Manager Server program so I could determine the number of licenses we actually have on this server? If I do a winmsd, the Operating System is just listed as Windows 2000 Server. It says nothing about about it being a Small Business Server. Thanks much.

Performing a manual backup on 4mm DDS tape works OK, but if a backup is scheduled, the backup fails and the log states: "Cannot locate the specified media or backup device.

    - Transferring AD from SBS2003 SP1 to W2K3 Server R2 Hi - I have a client who is currently on Small Business Server 2003, and have outgrown their setup. I'm replacing their SBS2003 box with a new W2K3 R2 server, and want to transfer Active Directory so as to simplify workstation reconfiguration. Please note the following: 1. Exchange is not used, so is not a factor. 2. The new server will not have the same name as the previous one (it was poorly named). 3. The SBS server will be reformatted and reinstalled as a Terminal Server. 4. I'm not interested in swing migration. I know SBS only supports 1 SBS server per domain, but have heard you can add a standard (full version) Windows server as a 2nd domain controller. I've also have heard SBS insists on holding the FSMO roles, and will shut down after a period of time if the roles are transferred. I have found an article that details what I feel to be the correct procedure, and it is here: http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/Migrating-Small-Business-Server-2003-Exchange-Standard-Part1.html I know I may also have to run the R2 version of ADPREP to get the SBS 2003 SP1 Active Directory scheme up to date. I just need confirmation that this is a supported procedure, that SBS will allow you to transfer FMSO roles (even if it doesn't like it), and that there are no limitations or "poison pills" in the SBS version of AD that would keep it from operating correctly if transferred to a full W2K3 server.

    - DNS Domain Name and Pre-Win2K Domain Name divergence in SBS 2K Hi there Gents! Oh please, listen to my plea: Exists a Win 2000 SBS Premium, named "ZX", or better "ZX.CO.local". We wish to add two more DCs so that ? among other things - we may speed up user authentication in two remote sites. However for reasons beyond the scope of this message (previous admin) DNS Domain Name and Pre-Win2K Domain Name differ in our installation. The first is "CO.local" while the second is "NWTRADERS" (fictitious names altogether). This divergence seems to inhibit adding AD servers in our domain. We did in fact manage to add a second AD server recently, one that was already present as a member server from the initial NT4 domain days. Still, a problem in File Replication Service (NTFRS errors 13506 ?a? 13555 appearing in the DC event log) prevents it from sharing its SYSVOL and becoming an active AD server. Newly installed servers can?t even perform dcpromo: Having selected that we wish to set up an "additional domain controller for an existing domain" we reach the point where we provide user credentials and select a domain. Alas, we are immediately informed of an imminent shutdown in the next 60 seconds provoked by NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM and that "The system process C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\SERVICES.EXE terminated unexpectedly with status code 128". Please note that these new AD server candidates run Win2K Server and that all machines are fully patched. As I considered that it was due to an erroneous/quirky installation of the new servers, I looked into this direction first. Unfortunately, my search using the status code mentioned above didn?t really provide any clues. This same problem was supposedly fixed by Win2K SP2. However, during the umpteenth installation and dcpromo I noticed that should I change ? in the 60 secs I have until the system shuts down ? the domain name that appears in the screen from "CO.local" to "NWTRADERS" (i.e. from DNS name to pre-Win2K domain name) dcpromo can indeed proceed. Needless to say it can never finish, as the system powers down, but it seems that it could finish the task. Following this I found a KB article (KB257623) that seems to be applicable to our case. Although no mention is made of the error code or of the forced shutdown, it really seems to point to a new direction. Netdiag reports no errors to speak of. What could I do to either impede the dcpromo error from incurring or reconcile the differing domain names? Is the latter going to have a negative impact to the Exchange in my SBS server? Would I have to remove and then add / reset all computer memberships in our domain? Thanks in advance for your time and consideration. Any idea or suggestion would be most welcome.

    - Login error when retrieving messages via POP3 Hello, I have a user who just got a Motorola Q phone. He wants to receive messages from our SBS 2000 server. The Q phone has options to receive mail using either POP3 or IMAP4. I configured it for POP3, but kept getting a login error. To test I also tried Outlook Express and get the same login error. The user does have remote login enabled and can view his messages via OWA. Next I tried using the administrator account on the phone. That worked. I then gave the user administrator rights, but he is still not able to login. I have been searching for a place that enables POP3 logins. Can anyone help? The server has W2k SP4 and Exchange 2000 SP3. Thank you Tag: My new satellite website, please check it out Tag: 179646

    - slow disk response i have sbs 2000 installed with sp4 and am having an issue with slow disk response. the kb's say to ensure the drive is on a seperate ultra ata ribbon cable (done that) and to check bios (done that) check advanced properties for dma enabled (done that) and it is still the same. i found some info on disk.sys causing the hdd to slow donw with wrtie cache enabled. i have removed that (i have a ups on the server to ensure the data is not corrupted with a crash / loss of power) still the same. however i have checked the date and tried to update the hdd driver (disk.sys) and the date is 1999 and the update says it finds a newer driver and installs but the date is the same. i have seen disk.sys files shown in various kb's with dates as new as 2005, even the i386 original disks show 2001. QUESTION: can i just copy the newer disk.sys to the wnnt\system32\drivers directory without the chance of the data being corrupted? QUESTION: sp4 will not re-apply, it says sp already applied. how can i re-apply sp4 without removing it first and then running the risk of other newer programs installed not working properly? i hope some guru out there can help, especially since sbs 2000 is not supported anymore!!

    - DHCP server Event ID 1053 Hello, I have a problem with the DHCP server ond my SBS server 2000. It wont start. I get the following message (eventID 1053): The DHCP/BINL service on this Small Business Server has encountered another server on this network with IP Address, 192.168.2.1, belonging to the domain: . I cannot ping this adress from any computer in the network (which are 192.168.16.x adresses) I have been doing a little searching this morning, and saw 2 possible causes/solutions, both of which do not seem to work. First and foremost... you have a router that is also a DHCP server. This is not the case, I checked and DHCP is disabled on the router. A second possible casue/solution I found here: http://forums.windrivers.com/archive/index.php/t-57658.html Now I am not really an expert in these things, but some searching led me to believe this is also not the case here. I think this because of the following: I go to Admin Tools\Routing and Remote Access I expand <the server>\IP Routing\ I only see General and Static Routes and I see nothing that has to do with NAT (you can add this, I tried this and the DHCP checkbox wasn't checked, and afterwards I deleted it again). As I said, I don't fully understand the last solution, so maybe something is to be gained there, but I have a feeling that also is not the problem. Any help would be greatly appriciated.

    - Impact of Partitions on RAID I am running SBS 2000 with hardware RAID (3 disks in one RAID 5 container partitioned as C: & D:). I have the Exchange database and 2 SQL databases on partition D:. I recently also moved the page file to D: when I went to 2GB RAM because C: did not have enough room to hold it. Now, as you might guess, the disk activity is heavily weighted towards the D:. Is there any incentive to split the page file between C: & D:? Does a choice of partitions have any impact on speed when both are in the same container?

    - Client computer access for SBS2000 Hi, This may seem like an odd question but. I have a client computer that is successfully connected to our SBS, all working fine no problems. However, I have a requirement for that client computer to be able to access the Internet without going through the SBS. I have a laptop that can successfully connect to my router and access the net without going through the SBS but I cannot get this client to do the same. What I am looking for is for the hardwired network card and cable to go through the router but to use the wireless net connector to connect to router when I need to go without SBS. When I disconnect the hardwire connection and enable wireless it simply won't connect the router. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance, Gary.

In some posts i have read that we need to configure RAS, i'm not sure if i need to do this. Could anyone give me some ideas about what i must do, if necessary please put some aditional questions.
