    - WSUS is not running Before I began to manage this server someone manipulated settings for WSUS. When I attempt to run it says "not running because it turns off automatically if someone customizes WSUS. Looking at GPO settings I dont believe it was done there. Thoughts? I dont beleieve the person who did this would have known much more than to turn off at a very high level. Tag: Print fails message Tag: 394955

    - Exchange 2003 - Management, Maintenance Questions Thanks to those that take the time to respond to this. Most of my experiences in Server world have been dealings with Windows 2003 Standard Ed. as a Terminal Services Server for Retail environment. This is my first real experience with Windows Small Business 2003 Std Edition (non-R2) and it's inter-connected components. Simply put, Exchange scares the heck out of me. I want to make sure I baby this to death - we know how important e-mail is to everyone. I have a series of questions: 1) Looking for a good, strong solution on backuping up Exchange. What is the difference between online/offline backups etc. A best practices guide type of document -- or book. 2) I'm not sure what the baseline is for Exchange. We have 53 mailboxese and my Store seems to consume 600MB to 800MB pre-SP2 Update. I'm monitoring now using TaskMgr to see what it is since SP2 upgrade. 3) SP2 - I have just had an experience adding SP2 - I followed a document that indicated adding CN=Content Filtering using adsiedit.msc. This basically did not allow store.exe to initialize. Once removed, all ran ok. How do I confirm SP2 is working as it should. What is involved in the IMF v.2.0 (features, how to setup and manage) 4) I have been trying to use the Exchange Best Practices Tool to diagnose and resolve any issues. The following is the output of the device. a) The space for the paging file (7000) is larger than the physical memory (4095). This may affect the system performance. It is recommended to have paging file size equal to the physical memory. Note: I increased the PF, as most MS resources suggest 1.5 x physical memory. I have set it to static. Will this truely be an issue? b) Automatic update for the Intelligent Message Filter is not enabled on server IBM-SERVER2. To improve the effectiveness of the filter, follow the instructions outlined in Microsoft Knowledge Base article 907747. c) The checkpoint file path for storage group 'First Storage Group' on server IBM-SERVER2 (C:\PROGRAM FILES\EXCHSRVR\MDBDATA) does not match the transaction log path (E:\EXCHANGEDATA). This issue can cause extended downtime when disk failures occur. Note: This did not appear when I ran it before installing SP2 d) Exchange fatal error information on server ibm-server2.ScotianGold.local is not automatically sent to Microsoft for analysis. It is recommended that you enable this feature through the Exchange System Manager. I assume, not really life threatening. e) The 'gatewayProxy' attribute for Recipient Update Service 'Recipient Update Service (Enterprise Configuration)' contains old data that was not fully processed. This data has existed since 2007-03-24T17:42:55Z and should be manually removed to avoid accidental changes to user addresses. Note: I have two of these messages. One for the Enterprise and one for the domain itself. I followed the instructions - but was not sure about deleting anything and what the results would be. Can someone please tell me what this means exactly. Regards, Chris Tag: Print fails message Tag: 394951

    - exchange public folder certificate error Recently a sbs server has started to display a certificate error every time we try to display any public folder property in ESM. The error is : 'The certificate chain was issued by an authority that is not trusted. ID No:80090325 Exchange System manager' I've tried re-running the sbs internet connection wizard with no result. Also i've tried importing certificates into trusted root store using IE6. additionally i've tried unticking the 'use ssl' option for both exadmin and exchweb in IIS. All these have had no effect whatsoever. The server is running SBS 2003 with the latest service packs. Additionally the server has had certificate services installed onto it for some reason - but not sure if this is relevant. Does anybody have any suggestions as to what is wrong ?.

    - Event ID: 10016 // DCOM //NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE This is my second post to the group, and I appreciate all the support so far. I have tried to google, use MSKB and this site to find a solution before posting. I am receiving the following error in my event log, it seems since the installation of WSS 3.0 (side-by-side) with version 2.0. Event Type: Error Event Source: DCOM Event Category: None Event ID: 10016 Date: 13/05/2008 Time: 4:32:03 AM User: NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE Computer: IBM-SERVER2 Description: The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID {61738644-F196-11D0-9953-00C04FD919C1} to the user NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE SID (S-1-5-20). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool. This is what I have done so far: 1) Reviewed CLSID in Registry, LocalService is set to IISADMIN 2) Followed an article on line (silly me forgot to record #), this is the content of the article. Grant the correct permissions to the Network Service account To grant the correct permissions to the Network Service account, follow these steps: 1. Click Start, click Run, type dcomcnfg in the Open box, and then click OK. 2. In Component Services, double-click Component Services, and then double-click Computers. 3. Right-click My Computer, and then click Properties. 4. Click the COM Security tab. 5. In the Launch and Activation Permissions area, click Edit Default. 6. Click Add, type Network Service, and then click OK. 7. While Network Service is selected, click to select the Allow check boxes for the following items: â?¢ Local Launch â?¢ Remote Launch â?¢ Local Activation â?¢ Remote Activation Pressed OK twice. I have done a reboot of the service since, as I have also updated to Exchange SP2. Does anyone have a further suggestion ? Regards, Chris Tag: Print fails message Tag: 394935

    - Network Cable Unplugged...? IBM xSeries 346, Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet 57xx NIC OS: SBS2003 R2 Premium I'm have an issue with my External NIC and LinkSYS AG241. It's just started giving me connectivity issues with the message 'Network cable unplugged'. The troubleshooting steps I've tried: Updated both the Internal and External Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet 57xx dirvers to latest version. The one thing that seems to have stopped the error message is to switch the offending NIC's Speed & Duplex to 10mbps Half and not 'Auto' or 100mbs Half/Full. Where as before when the NIC's Speed & Duplex was set to 'Auto' or '100mbps' the LinkSYS port would flash as would the NIC's (flash, connect then drop connection). I've swapped the cables around serveral time as the only way I can confirm it can't be the cables is when Speed & Duplex is changed when the same cable is used. Are there anymore troubleshooting steps I can take with regard to SBS, NIC/Cables or Router!? Tag: Print fails message Tag: 394933

    - setup hangs during "registering components" at 13 min mark Have read and re-read http://support.microsoft.com/kb/839492, as well as a search of this NG using "registering components" sbs as the search term, and then a google search of that term -- and it seems there's no getting getting around a long wait. Just in the off-chance that I missed something somewhere, is there a work-around? From what I gather, the system is updating itself with updates since it was released. Seems kinda logical to me that, if I could boot to some sort of safe mode and use MU/WU, I could download them much quicker so I could then run Setup again and "fly" past this hang point. Any ideas out there? Anybody? Mike Nebraska Tag: Print fails message Tag: 394921

    - Problems Running ConnectComputer from XP - runonce key Over the past while I have been migrating XP computers to SBS 2003R2 using the ConnectCoputer wizard without much trouble. On the last computer however, after the first re-boot, the migration stopped. I was left logged on to the _SBS_NetSetup_ userid. I was able to back out and put this computer back on the workgroup, but now I'm trying to figure out why the migration failed. In the SBSNetSetup,log (see below) I found this CWizard::PrepAutoLogon() - couldn't open runonce key I suspect this is why the migration did not resume after the reboot. What would cause this error?

    - Need recommendation for "backup" backup device Running SBS 2003 Premium, with Symantec Backup Exec ver. 12. ============ I am (mostly) satisfied with my backup product (my concern is that I use tape - 50GB capacity 3.5 years ago seemed fine, but it's not really enough anymore). Due to problems I've had in the last couple months, I think it's imperative that I add ASR (from the install CD process) and Symantec's IDR option into my backup strategy. My Dell Poweredge 2800, however, came with a CD-R. I'd like to get a decent, slightly-used external DVD/CD RW USB 2.0 burner to handle the above. Lot's to choose from on Amazon and eBay, but I'd like to get some opinions from this NG.

    - Somewhat OT: Bypassing SBS during maintenance period Running SBS 2003 Premium. ========= I've got the server down over-night so I can get some work done, but it looks like I won't be done by the time the staff gets to work in a few hours. I'd like to provide them with internet access so I'd like to do the following -- BUT would really like a sanity-check before I proceed: (1) Unplug server from Router so it's in stand-alone mode. (2) Configure router as a DHCP server using 192.168.x.x private network. (3) Plug into ISP-router via WAN port on my router. (4) Plug into my L3/L4 switch with a LAN port on my router. (5) Put a note on everyone's keyboard that LAN access is down, but internet access is available -- IF(!) they accept the risk of having no firewall. If not, unplug the LAN cable from their PC. (I think the L3/L4 switch, the very basic firewall in my router, Windows Defender and Symantec AV on each PC should hold up for a few hours.) Will this work? Is it an unacceptable risk on my part?

    - VPN Remote Access Issue - Can Login, but can't access local resour I'm trying to log in remotely to a SBS 2003 Domain, fully patched. I'm trying to login from my XP Pro machine at home which is also fully patched. Environment is as follows: There are a total of four servers. 3 Servers exist at the office, I have an additional BDC server that exists at home(remote location). Here's the rundown: At the office: 1 SBS 2003 server (Jupiter) Jupiter has two nics, one nic has a live static IP on the internet which is a FQDN, the other is an internal static IP address for the local business network of 172.16.10.7. 1 Win2K BDC and Print server (Mercury) 1 Win2K File and DHCP Server (Venus) Several desktops connected to the 3 servers At home(my remote location): All computers (desktops and servers) at home connect through a router, with all IP addresses starting with 172.16.11/24. We Have: 1 Win 2K BDC and backup file Server (mars). 2 desktops connected to Mars at home both remotely VPN to Jupiter. The BDC server at home (MARS) connects to the SBS 2003 (Jupiter) via VPN. Home network uses the following internal IP addresses: 172.16.11/24 Business network uses the following internal IP addresses: 172.16.10/24 Everything on the local network at the office (or at home) works flawlessly. Here's the route of the problem: From home, I can login into my SBS 2003 server remotely. But I can't do anything once I get there. If I use my MS Outlook 2007 or Outlook 2003 while logged onto Jupiter through the VPN tunnel, a message keeps popping up saying "needs password". I have entered the password 20 times, and nothing... Today, I again attempted to login remotely via VPN. I obtained an IP address. However, this time I got one ping off to Venus before everything else timed out. I also tried to ping Jupiter, all timed out. System was working flawlessly until about 2-3 weeks ago. Then my home Outlook started crashing all the time because of what appeared to be a problem with access to a public folder that we heavily use at the office, so i decided to delete my pst file at home, delete all my outlook settings, and start over. Only after I deleted my exchange settings at home, I could never get them to populate back when I tried to reconfigure Outlook. Eventually, I noticed that my vpn connections were not listing a VPN IP address. I thought this peculiar so went to the office and checked out the DHCP server (Venus --it's also our file server)). At first, I thought the problem was related to that. So, I rebooted the Venus Win2K server and DHCP was working. I then confirmed that we were getting an ip address via VPN thru a PPP adapter at home. I poked my head around some server settings on the SBS 2003 Server (Jupiter), did the internet configuration wizard again and the firewall config wizard on the SBS 2003 server and went back home. Once I got back home yesterday, everything was great. I could access all network resources from home. I could access everything. I was getting a DHCP address via VPN at home (remote location) and my exchange inbox at home downloaded megabytes of email from the exchange server. Life was good........Until I rebooted my home computer. I don't know if the problem just rematerialized or was related to my reboot of my home computer. Considering that the other computer also gain access again to its server, and then lost it after I reboot, my natural inclination is to blame the reboot of the home XP Pro machine, but it could just be coincidence. Now I'm back to where I started from (sorta). When I connect to the VPN, I'm getting an IP address. It's 172.16.10.25. Last night, I could ping all the servers, mercury, venus, mars, jupiter. I just couldn't do anything inside the network at work. Now I can't even ping the servers. If I try to access a mapped network drive, I get an error message saying "the local device name is already in use" The connection has not been restored. If I boot up outlook it says "needs exchange password" and refuses to do anything else except ask me to renter the password. Same thing happens on the other XP Pro machine at home (I didn't reboot that one). Now, my outlook at home does nothing. It keeps saying "trying to connect to exchange server", but doesn't prompt for a password. Problem seems to be morphing.... I'm really at a loss here. Doesn't appear to be a problem with DHCP or DNS. Perhaps WINS playing a role? Firewall settings on Jupiter (SBS 2003 server) seem like the obvious area to explore. I can login remotely to jupiter by using the remote desktop access, but I just can't access the office's network resources which obviously is problematic for me. Interesting, ever since I installed the SBS server, it has never permanently accepted any changes made to the firewall settings. What I mean here is that if I access "server management" and click on the "change firewall" settings, I must then go through the internet connection wizard everytime. Obviously something is amise here. Might it have something to do with Hosting the DHCP server on Venus (a win2k server)? Am I required to have the PDC/Exchange Server also function as a DHCP server in SBS 2003 environments to support VPN? Further update: When I could no longer ping the office from home via vpn, I reset all of the Firewall settings on home desktop computer and solved that problem. I can now ping away again, but get the dreaded "enter password" when trying to access the exchange server. So perhaps the problem is in the firewall settings, question is where. Is it the server? Desktop PC? If it is the desktop PC at home, why does the other desktop PC also not get access when no changes have been made to that machine....this to me indicates it's a server issue. Question is where is the problem. Any thoughts, greatly appreciated. If you prefer not to post here, please email your thoughts to arretium and gmail.com so use the "at" symbol in place of and and remove the spaces... Tag: Print fails message Tag: 394891

    - User profile changes when logging on Hi, SBS 2003 SP2. I set up roaming profiles for 3 users by creating a shared folder called profiles on the d: drive. I then changed the location of the users profile to this folder. One user has had her profile change twice since Thursday when she logs on.

    - Very unusual problem trying to log into SBS domain I have an XP SP2 Dell laptop that is part of my SBS domain. Worked fine before. Today the boss said he cannot log into the domain and asked me to take a look at it. Very strange.This computer was joined previously to the SBS domain and has a computer account. When I try to log in to the domain I get an error "The system cannot log you on now because the domain DOMAIN NAME is not available." Ok so I thought I would eliminate the wall connection and cable and took it to another office and plugged it in there. Same results. So I thought perhaps it could ne a bad internal nic so I plugged it directly into the dsl router, gave it a static public address and everything is fine. So I eliminated the nic. So I tried again. Same results. I did notice that it could not obtain a DHCP lease so I assigned it a static. Same results. I'm out of ides and options here. Anyone got a clue? I would try to remove the account form SBS and rejoin but I thought the tests I already did would have covered the need to do so. Tag: Print fails message Tag: 394842

    - Adding a second SharePoint Server I have a development team and the manager is adamant that he have his own SharePoint site. Currently the one that came with SBS is not good enough for him, I guess. So I have loaded an old P3 1.2 Ghz 1GB RAM with Server 2003 and added it to the network. I was just about to load in SharePoint when I thought I would get your opinion first. Is this a good idea? is there a way to make a sub-level in the current SharePoint website that only the developers can get to? Currently the Companyweb has the usual phone list, Pictures, a few anouncements. *shaking my head...why do they ask for these things. Kinda drives me nuts and they expect it to take a few minutes for each request. Liam Tag: Print fails message Tag: 394824

I find that my aged topics usually leave the first page very quickly and I end up paging through to find my older topics to see what posts have recieved new messages.

    - What are they asking for here? Intei Mess Filter-Sender ID quest Hi, In the guide they say : " You can enable Sender ID filtering behind the perimeter of the network. To do this, you specify the IP addresses of the servers in your internal network that you want excluded from Sender ID filtering. " So since I have only one box doing everything, do I put in my external IP address of the box or the internal address of my box? (Exchange Server 2003 on SBS) I'm just going thru the docuiment to get IMF turned on and working . Cheers' Dave Tag: Print fails message Tag: 394792

    - Remote Web Workplace SBS 2003? I can access the site externally. I can login to the site (domain admin). When I go to login to the server or any workstation I get the following message. The client could not connect to the remote computer. Remote connections might not be enabled or the computer might be to busy to accept new connections. It is also possible that the network problems are preventing your connection. Please try connecting again later. If the problem continues to occur, contact your administrator. I can access the serve and desktops if I try from inside the LAN and I have disabled the local Windows firewall for testing purposes. Any clues? Tag: Print fails message Tag: 394789

    - Fax services stuck in "starting", buttons to stop/start greyed out Over the weekend I installed fax services into SBS so that I can fax from Outlook. Everything worked. I had shut down the server since I'm still in "test" mode. Starting the server up today I find that the fax service is stuck in "starting" mode and there is an event log that indicates the service is "hung". What do I need to be looking at to see what the problem is, and what steps can I take to resolve the problem? Thanks, Roveer Tag: Print fails message Tag: 394788

    - Repeated Event Viewer errors during SBSBackup I have an SBS 2003 R2 server (fully patched) that is working extremely well in every respect except for some niggly errors that occur during the SBSBackup process. My backup takes place at midnight - I'm using all the defaults - and backups are sent to an external USB HDD (they are around 12GB at the moment). The backups themselves never fail, but pretty much every Performance Report sent to me in the morning contains some red shields (I'm beginning to hate them) in the "Critical Errors" and/or "Critical Errors in Application Log" and all of these errors occur when the SBSBackup process is running - NEVER at any other time. The errors are all related in that an error is generated when the system attempts to backup log files for certain services (DHCP/Exhange/WSUS etc..)during the SBSBackup: DHCP - error message: tcpsvcs (1740) An attempt to move the file "C:\WINDOWS\System32\dhcp\j50.log" to "C:\WINDOWS\System32\dhcp\j5001250.log" failed with system error 32 (0x00000020): "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process. ". The move file operation will fail with error -1032 (0xfffffbf8). OR: tcpsvcs (1740) An attempt to move the file "C:\WINDOWS\System32\dhcp\backup\temp\" to "C:\WINDOWS\System32\dhcp\backup\new" failed with system error 5 (0x00000005): "Access is denied. ". The move file operation will fail with error -1032 (0xfffffbf8). WSUS - error message: The Windows Server Update Services Server experienced an error while attempting to write to the log file. 264.3 System.IO.IOException: The process cannot access the file "C:\Program Files\Update Services\LogFiles\SoftwareDistribution.log" because it is being used by another process. Exchange Info Store: Information Store (7936) First Storage Group: An attempt to move the file "C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\mdbdata\E00.log" to "C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\mdbdata\E000005D.log" failed with system error 32 (0x00000020): "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process. ". The move file operation will fail with error -1032 (0xfffffbf8). ---------- In most instances the error is easily fixed by stopping and restarting the service, but in one instance I had to reboot. Now these are really niggly annoying problems and I wonder if anyone has come across this before? Here is my troubleshooting so far: - plenty of free disk space - Anti-virus exclusions set fine - in particular on the files and folders specified in the above errors. - SBS BPA only reports a warning about an old driver for my NIC - so far not updated it I am going to update the NIC driver to see if that helps, but apart from that I am at a loss. My other thought was to exlude these specific log files from SBSBackup... Any one any other thoughts? Is it likely to be the SBSBackup that's causing these errors (seems that way as they only ever occur during the backup)...? Could it be a problem with the VSS Writers (http://blogs.technet.com/asksbs/archive/2008/04/23/troubleshooting-vss-and-backup.aspx)? I ran the command and some (not all) of my writers are saying "waiting for completion". Tag: Print fails message Tag: 394754

    - how to setup faxing service Hi , I have setup a Microsoft faxing service with 4 modems to one computer. I set up one modem to both receive and send and the other 3 modems are only for receive. the send and receive work well, but I have a problem for distribution. the 4 modems are bound to 4 telephone number xxxxxx1,xxxxxx2,xxxxxx3,xxxxxx4. I set up the 4 receiving fax for above 4 number to 4 email address (e1@.xxx.xx,e2,e3,e4) the problem is : no mind which number I send to , the fax is always received by the xxxxxx1 and sent to mailbox e1@xxx.xx. My Server is Windows Server 2003 how can I correct this problem so that the fax to xxxxx2 will send to e2@ .xxxxxx3 will sent to e3@... the other question is : can I set the xxxxxx2 as the second receiving modem. that means if the fax to xxxxxx1,xxxxxx3,xxxxxx4 cannot reached due to hardware problem , the fax will received by xxxxxx2. since the modem xxxxx2 has external connect to a fax machine. so that if xxxxxx2 broken , I can get a printed document on the external fax machine. -- Gordon Tag: Print fails message Tag: 394746

    - SBS VPN Connect issues - can login, but can't do anything I'm at a total loss. Here's the facts: I'm trying to log in remotely to a SBS 2003 Domain, fully patched. I'm trying to login from my XP Pro machine at home. Environment is as follows: There are a total of four servers. 1 SBS 2003 server (jupiter), (1 BDC) 2 win 2K servers, and another BDC at home (mars). The BDC server at home (MARS) connects to the SBS 2003 (Jupiter) via VPN. Home network uses the following internal IP addresses: 172.16.11/24 Business network uses the following internal IP addresses: 172.16.10/24 Here's the route of the problem: Everything on the local network at the office works flawlessly. I can login into my SBS 2003 server remotely from home, but can't do anything once I get there. If I use my MS Outlook 2007 or Outlook 2003 while logged into the VPN tunnel, a message keeps popping up saying "needs password". I have entered the password 20 times, and nothing... Here's the strange brew to this problem: System was working flawlessly until about 2 weeks ago. Then my home outlook started crashing all the time because of what appeared to be a problem with a public folder that we use, so i decided to delete my pst file at home and start over. One problem. Once I deleted my exchange settings at home I could never get them to populate back. Eventually, I noticed that my vpn connections were not listing a VPN IP address. I thought this peculiar so went to the office and checked out the DHCP server (Venus --it's also our file server)). At first, I thought the problem was related to that. I rebooted the Venus Win2K server and DHCP was working. Confirmed that we were getting an ip address via VPN at home. Pooked my head around some server settings, did the internet configuration wizard and firewall config wizard on the SBS 2003 server and went back home. Got back home, everything is great. I can access my network resources, I can access everything. I'm getting a DHCP address and my exchange inbox at home is downloaded megabytes of email from the exchange server. Life is good........ Until I rebooted my home computer. Now I'm back to where I started from (sorta). When I connect to the VPN, I'm getting an IP address. It's 172.16.10.25. I can ping all the servers, mercury, venus, mars, jupiter. The whole solar system. I just can't do anything inside the network at work. If I try to access a mapped network drive, I get an error message saying "the local device name is already in use" The connection has not been restored. If I boot up outlook it says "needs exchange password" and refuses to do anything else except ask me to renter the password. Same thing happens on the other XP Pro machine at home (I didn't reboot that one). I'm really at a loss here. -- arretium ------------------------------------------------------------------------ arretium's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/member.php?userid=48988 View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/showthread.php?t=966271 http://forums.techarena.in Tag: Print fails message Tag: 394742

    - Migrating SBS to new hardware I was following the article "Migrating Windows Small Business Server 2003 to New Hardware" http://technet2.microsoft.com/WindowsServerSolutions/SBS/en/library/4082d695-2075-4ca0-8af8-99fd04b78b2d1033.mspx?mfr=true and along the way my destination server stopped booting. It would get stuck at "applying personal settings" Same thing under safe mode with networking, desktop never appeared. In my haste I decided to scrap my new destination server installation and reload Windows from scratch and start over. Problem now is I had already promoted that first destination server as a global catalog server and transfered the operations master roles. So now when I got to that point on my second run through I get "ERROR" where my source server should be and below that it says "the current operations master is offline. this role cannot be transfered." in the Operations Masters dialog. If I click change I get "the current FSMO cannot be contacted" etc and clicking help from there talks about siezing the role. So my question is this the only way to procede? This is the help text I get; "The domain controller currently acting as the RID master is not available. This could be caused by network problems or by a failure of the RID master computer. There should be a RID master in each domain. Temporary unavailability of a RID master is not visible to network users. Seizing the RID master role is a drastic step that should be considered only if the current RID master will never be available again. Before proceeding with the role seizure, you must permanently disconnect the current RID master from the network. Important After the RID master role has been seized, the boot drive for the original RID master must be completely reformatted and the operating system reinstalled before that computer can be returned to the network. " This is ok with me because that first destination server is already formatted. Is this the best way to go or should I try something else? Can't I just revert my original source server to being the operations master and transfer it to my new destination server somehow? Tag: Print fails message Tag: 394706

    - SBS Exchange Backup issue Hi All We have a SBS 2003 premium server and we use SBS Backup to backup all partitions, system state and Microsoft Information store to a network drive on a NAS box or occasionaly to a USB drive. The backup logs in SBS server management indicate no problems. However when we use the NTBackup restore tab to inspect the backup files and drill down to the log files, mailbox and public folders the backup program reports 0 kb and no entries in each of these 3 exchange backup folders. Could anyone please tell me if this correct as it appears very worrying to me when the logs show no problems. The backup file size would seem to indicate that the info store is indeed backed up as they are backed up once from the info store part of the backup and again from the full partition backup.

    - Lan to Lan - SBS 2003 / Draytek 2800 Hi, I am experiencing trouble with my VPNâ??s I have recently setup and was wondering if someone has any experience, and could point me in the right direction. Setup: PPTP connection between the router and SBS 2003 Premium (with ISA 2004) Code: Site A Site B Site C Site Type Main Branch A Branch B Device SBS 2003 Prem Vigor 2800 Vigor 2800 Lan Address 192.168.16.2 10.43.1.1 192.168.1.1 Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0 255.255.255.0 255.255.255.0 Public IP sbs.******.co.uk ey.******.co.uk cr.******.co.uk I basically followed the Draytek guide for making this work (although it was outdated and didnâ??t include ISA). I created a user, setup the RRAS network connection, and fiddled with settings in ISA. If you need more info on this I can provide it. At the moment both of these sites are connecting, but I am experiencing strange behaviour and was wondering if I have setup the connections correctly. Problems: Branch A: sometimes a connection will be added to the â??Remote Access Clientsâ?? instead of â??Network Interfacesâ??. When the branch router instigates the connection the users of the VPN not to be able to get internal websites, but they can still reach external websites and internal network locations. Also I get regular errors in the event log stating: â??Event ID: 14147. ISA Server detected routes through the network adapter Network Connection that do not correlate with the network to which this network adapter belongs. When networks are configured correctly, the IP address ranges included in each array-level network must include all IP addresses that are routable through its network adapters according to their routing tables. Otherwise valid packets may be dropped as spoofed. The following ranges are included in the network's IP address ranges but are not routable through any of the network's adapters: 10.255.255.255-10.255.255.255;. Note that this event may be generated once after you add a route, create a remote site network, or configure Network Load Balancing and may be safely ignored if it does not re-occur.â?? Branch B: reports regular errors in the event log stating: â??Event ID: 20050.

    - Converting from POP3 to SMTP.... And I have two questions and want comments... If I understand all that I read here and elsewhere, I can add an MX record with a higher priority than the current one so that mail goes to my server, but then if my server or connection is down, it will go to the same place it's always gone, my hosting provider's servers, correct? The big question though is how does my "catch-all" stuff get handled? Currently, I have tons of "@mydomain.com" addresses floating around that I give out when I order stuff online. They aren't attached to an AD account, and I don't want to attach them, but I still want that mail delivered to my mailbox. Is there a setting in Exchange that will allow that to happen, and won't just reject the mail because the address doesn't exist? I realize that I will get tons of spam because of this, but I do already. :) I already have my domain, and I have a dyndns.org account that I can point the MX record to. Am I forgetting/needing anything else? Oooops, that's 3 questions. :) Thanks, Dave Hampson Tag: Print fails message Tag: 394683

I have a Windows XP SP3 client as a Domain Client for SBS SP2. When trying to
print from the Small Business Server Share Network Printer I receive an
onscreen message "print failed" and nothing is printed. Thinking it was a
permission problem I shared the printer out as all users in Domain, also gave
the user Printer Operator Rights. Same Problem. There is nothing that shows
up in the Domain Event Errors or locally on the client Event Errors. Anyone
have any ideas to try?

First (and only) thing that comes to mind is to open and check the
Printers and Faxes folder on the client PC. I've had a few issues
lately when making some changes when the default printer "changed" to
the Fax or the XPS Doc Writer. Changing the default printer to a
"real" printer did the trick.

Just a thought.

I actually do not have either of those printers on the client computer. I
did try and make a local driver for the printer on the client and received
the same error. The Default Printer is always the one I am trying to use.
Also logged in as domain Administrator on the client and received the same
error.

I wonder if it has something to do with the XP SP3 upgrade?

I don't have any experience with SP3 so can't comment.

You say the printers aren't on the client when you checked; when you
did Add Printer, did you check 'select network printer" (words to that
effect)? And were they listed in the Directory? If so, I would
recommend those choices than trying to install a local printer.

HTH,
Mike
