    - MailHop Relay, alternate port, worth the trouble? I can sign up for MailHop Relay from DynDNS for an additional $10 per year, per domain versus MailHop Backup MX. Is it worth the effort to stop using port 25 and use an alternate port? I have IMF and Trend working to eliminate approximately 99% (guestimate) of all offensive email. The volume of rejected email is considerable but I have not looked at it or measured it in a long while, so I don't really know. I'm using my ISP as a SmartHost. Does that cause a problem with MailHop Relay? Jim G. Tag: Remote Web Workplace Tag: 387898

    - Pop3 Connector email stuck in InForward folder Hi, I have a Windows SBS 2000 server using Microsoft Pop3 Connector to retrieve email from our ISP. Once retrieved the email should be routed through to the Exchange server but it looks like all incoming email either gets stuck in the InForward folder or event ID 4032 appears in the event viewer. "A recipient has been processed. Recipient information: NDR Status Code: 404 Error Code: 00000000 SMTP Reply: SMTP Name: user@mydomain SMTP Host: exchangeserver.mydomain Everyone can send email out and receive internal emaill fine, however no external email is getting through.

    - WSUS 2.0 Hey All, Everything is working on my new SBS2003 Premium Server except VPN. For the life of me I can't get this simple thing to work. But that is the least of my problems right now. The ONLY thing I have uninstalled is WSUS 2.0. I was getting an error every 5 seconds in the event viewer. My question is can I install WSUS 3.1 without reinstalling WSUS 2.0??? And more importantly do I need it? NOTHING has been disabled and nothing else has been uninstalled. My client has had a third party install Xcelerator Software via RDP for package tracking and that's when I started getting the WSUS errors. I haven't talked to the Xcelerator people but the server is clean with no data at all. Just wondering if WSUS is a needed component on it's own??

    - What is Windows registry (Registry Keys) Find this tutorial and more on http://thedotnetsource.blogspot.com Reason of this project: I wrote this tutorial in order to help the hundred of programmers searching on the web for Windows registry. This is an like introduction, if you are seeking how to use and deploy the registry keys with Vb.net, just see the next tutorial (It'll be tutorial 6). In this tutorial I'll show what is the windows registry system and why use it. Project details: 1- What is Windows registry and why use it 2- How to read, write and change the registry 3- HIVES and their use 4- Definition of registry values 1- What is Windows registry and why use it. You can compare the Windows registry to a database. It stores informations related to Windows and other installed application on your system, but also Hardware. Think now if someone need to change the computer name via programming. How can he do this? Programmers can think of files (text files) to store the computer and windows information. But when file get big and heavy, Database will be more secure. And then they had (Windows builder) the choice of a database "Windows Registry". Microsoft Dot Net Frame 1.1 and higher have implemented a great solution for registry on their classes. This will replace the hard work and long lines of code that programmers have to write if they are using Visual Studio 6.0 for example. 2- How to read, write and change the registry Windows has a wonderful tool on it, named "Registry Editor". But you won't find it, unless you open the System32 folder on the Windows folder. But we can easily run it through the execute command it the start menu. Just type "regedit" (without quotes). Now the registry editor will open. Please before doing any changes on your registry make a backup. To do a windows registry backup: File > Export > Give a name for the file and select the All option box. The backup may block your pc from working for a short period of time. You'll see that there are 5 folder. Those are the main folder (named hives) and you can't add another main folder. Now you can select any folder and right click on it, then add a new sub-folder or value. By selecting any folder and right clicking, you'll find a list of action that you can do. If the action is blended (made not selectable), then either it's impossible or you don't have the rights to do this action. You need administrator rights to change registry keys. 3- HIVES (main registry folders) and their use The registry is split into a number of logical sections named "hives", those are the top main folder that can added, edited or renamed. They all start with "HKEY" prefix. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT Stores information about registered applications, such as Associations from File Extensions and OLE Object Class ID's tying them to the applications used to handle these items. HKEY_CURRENT_USER Stores settings that are specific to the currently logged-in user. The HKCU key is a link to the subkey of HKEY_USERS that corresponds to the user; the same information is reflected in both locations. On Windows- NT based systems, each users' settings are stored in their own files called NTUSER.DAT and USRCLASS.DAT inside their own documents and settings subfolder. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Abbreviated HKLM, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE stores settings that are general to all users on the computer. On NT-based versions of Windows, HKLM contains four subkeys, SAM, SECURITY, SOFTWARE and SYSTEM, that are found within their respective files located in the %SystemRoot% \System32\Config folder. A fifth subkey, HARDWARE, is volatile and is created dynamically, and as such is not stored in a file. Information about system hardware drivers and services are located under the SYSTEM subkey, whilst the SOFTWARE subkey contains software and windows settings. HKEY_USERS Contains subkeys corresponding to the HKEY_CURRENT_USER keys for each user registered on the machine. HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG Contains information gathered at runtime; information stored in this key is not permanently stored on disk, but rather regenerated at boot time. 4- Definition of registry values Binary Value REG_BINARY Raw binary data. Most hardware component information is stored as binary data and is displayed in Registry Editor in hexadecimal format. DWORD Value REG_DWORD Data represented by a number that is 4 bytes long (a 32-bit integer). Many parameters for device drivers and services are this type and are displayed in Registry Editor in binary, hexadecimal, or decimal format. Related values are DWORD_LITTLE_ENDIAN (least significant byte is at the lowest address) and REG_DWORD_BIG_ENDIAN (least significant byte is at the highest address). Expandable String Value REG_EXPAND_SZ A variable-length data string. This data type includes variables that are resolved when a program or service uses the data. Multi-String Value REG_MULTI_SZ A multiple string. Values that contain lists or multiple values in a form that people can read are generally this type. Entries are separated by spaces, commas, or other marks. String Value REG_SZ A fixed-length text string. Binary Value REG_RESOURCE_LIST A series of nested arrays that is designed to store a resource list that is used by a hardware device driver or one of the physical devices it controls. This data is detected and written in the \ResourceMap tree by the system and is displayed in Registry Editor in hexadecimal format as a Binary Value. Binary Value REG_RESOURCE_REQUIREMENTS_LIST A series of nested arrays that is designed to store a device driver's list of possible hardware resources the driver or one of the physical devices it controls can use. The system writes a subset of this list in the \ResourceMap tree. This data is detected by the system and is displayed in Registry Editor in hexadecimal format as a Binary Value. Binary Value REG_FULL_RESOURCE_DESCRIPTOR A series of nested arrays that is designed to store a resource list that is used by a physical hardware device. This data is detected and written in the \HardwareDescription tree by the system and is displayed in Registry Editor in hexadecimal format as a Binary Value. None REG_NONE Data without any particular type. This data is written to the registry by the system or applications and is displayed in Registry Editor in hexadecimal format as a Binary Value Link REG_LINK A Unicode string naming a symbolic link. QWORD Value REG_QWORD Data represented by a number that is a 64-bit integer. This data is displayed in Registry Editor as a Binary Value and was introduced in Windows 2000.

    - Companyweb file store Hello, I was looking to do some cleanup on a SBS 03 SP1 server with Sharepoint 2 SP1 (yes, I am working on getting it upgraded, users are very change averse). I got curious as to where on the drive that documents on the companyweb are stored and noticed that there are extra documents on the folder in the drive than there are displayed through companyweb. Can the extra documents be safely deleted? Is there a way to specifically determine how the folders on the drive relate to the document libraries? The path that I found is: C:\Documents and Settings\LocalService\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\{with about 4 subfolders} Thanks in advance for your help.

    - No sound over Remote Desktop Connection to SBS server Hi there A pretty strange obscure problem I really hope somebody can help me with. Basically we have an SBS server which I must be able to connect to via RDC and recieve sound on the connecting PC. I have installed a cheap sound card on the server hoping that this would get the sound working, however despite all the drivers installing fine and the sound does work on the actual server, sound over the RDC still will not work. When I load DXDiag during the remote session and open the Sound tab it reports the following error: Sound Devices ------------- Description: Microsoft RDP Audio Driver (emulated) Device ID: Manufacturer ID: 1 Product ID: 24 Type: Emulated Driver Name: Driver Version: Driver Attributes: Driver Signed: Date and Size: Other Files: Driver Provider: HW Accel Level: Basic Registry: OK Sound Test Result: Failure at step 3 (DirectSoundCreate): HRESULT = 0x8878000a (The request failed because DirectSound resources, such as the priority level, were already in use by another caller.) Here is the output from dxdiag during the console session: ------------- Sound Devices ------------- Description: C-Media Wave Device Device ID: PCI\VEN_13F6&DEV_0111&SUBSYS_011113F6&REV_10 Manufacturer ID: 1 Product ID: 100 Type: WDM Driver Name: cmaudio.sys Driver Version: 5.12.01.0639 (English) Driver Attributes: Final Debug Driver Signed: No Date and Size: 7/16/2002 09:58:12, 379726 bytes Other Files: Driver Provider: C-Media HW Accel Level: Basic Registry: OK Sound Test Result: I have tried lots of combinations with no luck. The only thing I could find on the problem was a very old post which said this is a known bug and the workaround is to start Media player before connecting. This didnt work either. The connecting PC is Windows XP Professional which rules out the Group Policy setting. Would very much appreciate some help on this. Thanks alot Tag: Remote Web Workplace Tag: 387847

    - New SBS 2003 computer no longer connects Customer received SBS 2003 Standard Server installed and partially setup we were asked to finish the setup of accounts, etc. Server seemed OK apart from some odd naming convention and all the accounts went on and we set up the 2 desktops and 4 laptops - all done with the connectcomputer - all OK. Next day set up VPN and Remote desktop all OK and working. After leaving, the Boss returned (missing when we did the VPN, etc) and his laptop would not connect to the server or the internet. At present the DHCP is supplied by the router. We tried everything we could think of obvious cabling etc. No luck. Disconnected it from the Domain back to workgroup and then with the connectcomputer - could not find the server - said network path not found. It shows on the server but error again with network path. The server can ping the laptop OK - strange. Could the VPN issue have anything to do with this. We really would appreciate any help.

    - Best way to move data from 2000 Server to SBS2003R2 I am upgrading a 2000 Server to an SBS2003 server over the weekend. We created a new domain name and recreated all new user accounts, etc... Now I need to move over just the data from the old server to the new one. From there, I can recreate the few shares they have. However, there is approximately 100 Gig of data. My initial thoughts were to move the data off to a workstation, then copy it back, but this will take alot of time moving the data back and forth. I tought to install the old tape software and drive, inventory their last backup tape and restore that it, but again, too much time. Is there a way I can map a temporary drive to the old server server and to a direct transfer of data that way? I've never done this and look forward to any assistance I can get.

We have a software developer and i want to create another firewall policy so he can turn off the firewall when he has to work with special machines. I know that we can try to configure the exceptions, but alot of vendor are asking us to disable the firewall when connecting to their machines.

    - Connectivity Problem to Server - Help Pls I have a small network of 8 computers connected to Windows 2003 SBS. All Client PC's are running XP Pro. One of the client Pc's is able to log in to the network, but cannot connect to the "Company Web" page. I've also noticed that from the server, I can't connect to the "Event Viewer", and other services directly to the problematic PC. The Roaming Profile also doesn't transfer from this particular PC and to the Server. Although I can view all the shares available on the Server from the client PC, there is some sort of connectivity problem. I have checked the Firewall settings, and that seems fine. Any help\guidance would be appreciated. Thanks! Tag: Remote Web Workplace Tag: 387745

    - User Rights Conflict On Folder/SubFolder Access Hi all, I have a snooping user whom I need to stop access to opening files in a particular folder without it being a really noticeable issue for him or anyone else, unless they snoop. I am attempting to deal with the situation via user rights, but have a user rights conflict issue, I just can't see what I'm doing wrong. Mapped drive location on SBS2003. Domain Users have full access to mapped drive (G:\). I have a folder: G:\BDT\Training of which I want to set different user access rights to it. I have ensured that rights are NOT being inherited from the G:\ settings, and after I changed the rights on the folder as required, that these were sent to all child objects. * Security Group - Domain Admin users have full access * Security Group - Training Folders users have full access * Security Group - Inhouse AdminTeam Group users have list/read/read&execute rights only (can see, open read-only data, can't update) * Security Group - Domain Users - users have list rights only (can see files, but no access to file contents) Security Group - Domain Admin and Security Group - Training Folders works as required. My problem is with a conflict between the Inhouse AdminTeam Group and the Domain Users group. Members of the Inhouse AdminTeam Group are of course, also members of the Domain Users group. If I add the Domain Users group to the folder, with right - list (only) the Inhouse AdminTeam group can also only list - the extra rights of read/read&execute are ignored. That is, they can see the file, but when they try to open it, it says that it is encrypted or corrupted, and the file won't open. Please help. TIA -- Wendy Tag: Remote Web Workplace Tag: 387740

    - Questions about multiple email domains on SBS 2003 SP1 with Exchange 2003 SP2 Hello! Cross-posted to the Exchange group in case gurus there have a good answer. I want to set up an SBS server to receive mail for two domains and to be able to send from those two domains and not just send from the default Exchange account. I have read http://support.microsoft.com/kb/268838/en-us and it says to have all domains in the default policy. I have read other articles that say to create a new recipient policy for the domain. I had ChooseFrom (with SmartFrom and SmartReply) working with domain aliases, but that died a while back...not sure why...could be related to installing Vamsoft ORF for spam filtering (NDR states: You do not have permission to send to this recipient). I am thinking that ChooseFrom (with SmartFrom and SmartReply) could help meet my goals. My goals are: 1) To have 3 users out of 25 who will have both domainA.com email and domainB.com email, and to be able to send from either one. 2) Have 3 more domain users who need only domainB.com email 3) Everyone else only has domainA.com email Article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/289833/en-us states under the step 11 note, "You may not want every user to have the secondary e-mail address. If you click No, you must create another recipient policy for those specific users who need this addresses, or manually add the address for each user." I don't get the part about "...or manually add the address for each user." All 25 users are on one SBS domain, as they need access to resources on the SBS server. Some of them work for a sister company, hence the need for the second domain email. For the sister company, they currently use their web host for domainB.com to do their email and they POP it into Outlook. I want everything in Exchange. As far as the MX record for domainB.com, if I understand this article to be correct http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/MF010.html, then the MX record for domainB.com should be the same MX as domainA.com (mail.domainA.com) so that PTR records (and the mail server greeting, if it matters) work properly. Or should I have a mail.domainB.com MX record with its corresponding A record pointing to the SBS server IP address? What are the functional differences between the two methods (both domains in default policy, or two separate policies)? I can think of the following: 1) If the second domain is added to the default policy, then ALL domain users get the second domain address as well, correct? 2) If a separate recipient policy is used, then I could choose specific users to get the second domain, correct? Thank you! Gregg Hill Tag: Remote Web Workplace Tag: 387717

    - Desktop Files on Server? I have no idea what has happend but its become quite a problem. A few days ago, I used remote desktop to connect to our server (terminal services) and upon connecting I noticed all the icons/files from my local machine's desktop were now on my desktop of the server. I minimize the session to see that the icons/files that I had on the server desktop are now on my local machine's desktop. As if they were now mirrored. Not thinking too much about it, I went back on the server and deleted the files so that only my server desktop items remained. Upon logging off and returning to my local machine I noticed now that my normal desktop icons were gone from my local machine. I looked everywhere for them but they were completely gone. I have heard of sharing Printers and Drives with remote desktop, and those settings can be turned on and off. But I do not see anything about my desktop.

    - Stay with SBS 2003 or move to server 2003 std. ed.? Hi everyone, I need some opinions on when to migrate to Server 2003 Standard Ed. I just started with a company and inherited a network currently running SBS 2003 with exchange (setup for public email use), 20 users, and about 12 member servers running SQL 2000 and some custom apps. Durring a planning meeting, I found out that our company plans to exceed 50 people in the next two years. I know that SBS only supports concurrent 50 users. The funny thing is that active directory isn't being utilized other then for exchange (none of the client computers are joined to the SBS domain). So again, as I plan our structure for the future; I can't help but wonder if I shouldn't drop SBS NOW and implement Server 2003 Standard or enterprise. But then again, I don't know how time consuming it would be to migrate once we exceed 50 users. Not to mention that we are going to open several branch offices. Thanks in advance for your comments and suggestions. -mike Tag: Remote Web Workplace Tag: 387676

    - Deny Simultaneous Logins to All Users EXCEPT Admin? Windows 2000 Small Business Server With Windows XP Pro Workstations I am using roaming profiles and folder redirections. I want to restrict individual users to only one (1) login on one PC at any given time (no simultaneous logins by any given user). However, I want the Admin users to have multiple simultaneous logins possible. Do I simply put a script (see below) in each user's login profile and omit it from the Admin users? Any caveats? Any better suggestions? e.g.: http://windowsitpro.com/articles/print.cfm?articleid=82454 Thanks. Fred Tag: Remote Web Workplace Tag: 387623

    - Trend Micro CSM for SMB Vulnerability scan issue? Do any of you folks have any familiarity with this product? I've got two machines that are popping up in the vulnerability report for a patch that is 3 years old now. I know for a fact both of the machines (my own machine) and a newly deployed machine have this patch installed. Trend is giving me a Critical Threat Level for these (3 bars). This is the vulnerability: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS05-004.mspx I even re-applied the patches via a downloadable executable and re- scanned the machines and the report doesn't change. What's odd though is that none of the other machines have this problem, and they are all deployed via the same Windows XP SP2 CD with connection to my WSUS 3 server. I called Trend Micro and they said that the vulnerability scan checks the windows version number to assess threats. But this didn't make sense as she went on to state that if the vulnerability patch was in a service pack or roll up that Trend Micro doesn't see it as applied. -Ryan Tag: Remote Web Workplace Tag: 387604

    - Exchange w/ no PTR and Smart Host Setup? I'm having some problems with mail sticking in Queue for recipients from AOL and a few other places. Using google, it seems that it's a problem since my IP address doesn't have reverse DNS. I'm willing to accept that fact, as I doubt my provider will give one up. So I'm checking into smart hosts. My question to you professionals is this: Is using an SMTP smart host simply passing the outbound email off to an external provider, such as the company whom hosts our webpage, which also provides pop/smtp email access? In short: If I put my web hosts smtp address in the smart host box, and in the outgoing authentication box put in an appropriate login for pop/smtp authentication is this all that is required? Thanks. You guys are life savers. Tag: Remote Web Workplace Tag: 387585

    - WSS3 Backup Jop on SBS 2003 Hi I have WSS3 installed on SBS2003 following the instructions to keep WSS2, but my backup job fails. I think it is trying to backup the WSS2 site (as it is talking about port 80). Object SharePoint - 80 failed in event OnPrepareBackup. For more information, see the error log located in the backup directory. Can anyone tell me if I can get rid of this, or if I can safely ignore it? Thanks Neil Tag: Remote Web Workplace Tag: 387580

    - DNS and RWW Connection Issues What exactly does the DNS do that could affect the RWW connection to a PC. I had an issue yesterday that a user couldn't connection RWW to his PC. I check all connections and made sure the PC was on. I left the issue for a couple of hours and came back to only find that the RWW connection now works. I talked with our ISP and they said it may be something with the DNS being resolved incorrectly. How can I check this and make sure this is the case. Tag: Remote Web Workplace Tag: 387578

    - VPN and ping/Oracle problem Trying to use a PPTP vpn on a SBS 2003 using ISA 2000. I can vpn in. I can \\SBSservername and see shares. I can \\oracleserver and see shares. I cannot ping the SBS or Oracle. I cannot connect to the Oracle database. Support says I need to be able to ping first. I make a pptp vpn to my office running SBS 2003 and ISA 2004 and I can ping the server. So the question is this. What click do I need to do at the customer office that will allow ping to the servers? ISA 2000 is a lot less restrictive than ISA 2004. XP Pro clients but that should not be relevant.

    - Volume License Key Question? I have a new client that purchased a volume license key via Dell for SBS 2003 R2 Standard (T72-01675) and 5 additional cals (T74-00245). I called to register the authoirization number and license agreement number and I was sent an email with 2 Product Keys so I am thinking all looks good. Since the only purchase was for volume keys and no media I used media I had from another installation (this media was from a retail box of the same thing) figuring I just use the new keys from the volume license, but no go. I am told during the initial install that the keys sent to me in the email were invalid product keys. What am I missing here? What do I do? Tag: Remote Web Workplace Tag: 387567

One of our employees is on an other location and have a POP3 mail account on another domain (name@external.dk). On our exchangeserver he has a mail account (name@internal.dk) and we have created a contact with his external mail-account. All mail to name@internal.dk is forwarded to name@external.dk and is works onless the sender sends from a Gmail account. The sender gets a mail from postmaster@internal.dk saying that the mail couldn't be delivered because: Sender address rejected: Invalid Sender Domain Is there somewhere on our exchangeserver, this is typed in? or what is the reason for this message?

    - NT4 with Exchange 5.5 to SBS2003 R2 using ADMT Hi, I have a customer who wants me to do their migration from NT4 to SBS2003 R2. Since I've never done it and I've lived on an NT4 domain for the last nine years (don't fix what aint broke), I took the opportunity to use my own domain as the guinea pig for a test migration. I found the ADMT help lacking but, I was successful migrating the domain. I actually spent several months sort of pregnant but duplicating the users and key group, syncronizing the new sbs file server with the old file server and then mapping user on the old dome to shares on the new domain. The only snag with that was security which I was able to address. Anyway, my question is about Exchange 5.5 and migrating to the new server; when I do the ADMT migration will the message stores transfer as well? Tag: Remote Web Workplace Tag: 387543

    - DHCP? Hi All, I have one SBS2003 Premium Server and 2 clients. I also have a Westell327 Verizon DSL Router. I have set the router up NOT to assign IP address. I use static IP's for the server and the 2 clients. Do I need to have the DHCP service running on the Server? I noticed it is trying to do some funky things with one of my client XP machines. I can see one of my clients in a pool with a different IP than what I assigned it but when checking the client it has the IP I assigned. If no, do I disable from the DHCP window on the Server or do I disable the service from starting??

    - Need help with determining what the problem is so I can fix it Hello i've got an odd one I was hoping I could get some assistance with, This customer has 10 new xp pro computers and 1 sbs2k3 server that I installed. They rely on PaperPort for their document/pdf/scanning management. Several times a week when copying or renaming a file within paperport, it freezes. When it freezes on this users system it takes down every application for every user on the network, with the normal unable to open file type of error. I unplug her system from the network thinking it is the source of the problem or interference, this does not change anything. Here's where it gets wierd. Even though none of the applications will run, I can still access the mapped drive and copy and paste items from it. I can ping the server and bring up the internet. Outlook remains connected and recieves mail fine. However, no network applications will work. With performance monitor running on the server I can see the number of open files go from 170 down to 0 immediately following the paperport crash. In task manager on the server my processor is normal and below 15%, ram and virtual memory are normal, there are no tasks eating up the processor. There are no events in the event log relating to any type of problem. I disconnect the server from the network and attempt to rename the folder (via win explorer) that the user was copying when paperport crashed, I cannot rename it explorer essentially freezes. Only a reboot of the server will bring the network back to its normal state. My question is this: What performance monitoring counters would you recommend I watch to determine why the server is not processing requests? (I can't seem to determine to what it's not processing since the mapped drives are still up and running, and outlook is as well) (please omit the default counters, current drive queue length, ,active connections and open files) When a workstation copys a folder from the server to another directory on the server and the workstation crashes in the middle of the copy, what process or service running on the Server would be effected by the workstation crashing? Theoretically If I can see the files on a mapped drive without any problems but when I go to open those files in any app (word,excel,adobe,etc) and the app freezes without any errors what would this be indicitive of? (assuming of course it's not a permission problem, I can open said docs locally on my workstation, and after a server reboot those files open fine) It seems the server is detecting a partial copy or corrupt file and for some reason this is taking the server down. Oh there is one important thing I forgot to mention, they were having the same exact problem on another server before I installed the sbs2k3. Also, all workstations have been replaced with no results. I am absolutely positive this is a paperport specific issue (sorry, and yes I have posted in the paperport newsgroup as well). I'm looking for help in how to determine what the exact problem it is causing on my server is. As always thanks for your time and assistance, Tony Tag: Remote Web Workplace Tag: 387511

We are running SBS 2003 R2 (without ISA). We have a problem affecting only
one computer trying to connect to Remote Web Workplace from a location
outside our network. The user always receives the error message:
"vbscript: Remote Desktop Disconnected
The client could not connect to the remote computer. Remote connections
might not be enabled or the computer might be too busy to accept new
connections. It is also possible that network problems are preventing your
connection. Please try connecting later. If the problem continues to occur
contact your administrator."

Remote Web Workplace runs perfectly for all other users on all other
computers from all other locations connecting to our network. The only
difference with the problem computer is that it is running Windows 2000
Professional, with which I am not familiar.

I would really appreciate it if someone could provide a checklist that I
could follow to ensure that this computer can connect.

Thank you in advance.

I think it is a xp issue as it only happens on single client. You may post it
in Windows XP newsgroup.
