We are currently running Windows Small Business Server 2003 and have
about 10 client computers connected to the server. Two of the clients
were installed about 6 months ago and are running "Windows Vista
Business", the rest of the computers are still on XP.

About 1 month ago i tried to install a new client running vista to the
server and had trouble with it... Due to lack of information on the
internet i gave up on the problem and installed XP (which connects up
perfectly).

In the past few days i have again been trying to add yet another new
"vista" client to the server. And i keep receiving the same error.
"The Server that is running Windows SBS 2003 cannot be found. Verify
the following before you continue:.......". The message says to ensure
the server is the DNS.... which it is and then it says something about
clearing the proxy information in Internet Explorer...which i have
also done........ It really has me stumped!! I have even tonight wiped
this client again and installed XP on the machine and it connects
perfectly without a hitch...... I am happy to use XP but it is buggin
me that i cant use Vista considering we have purchased it.

Does anyone have any ideas????

Hi sorry for the slow reply.

Yes i am trying to connect via the connectcomputer page.

Yes i have done everything on the 2007 compatibility page on microsoft
support. I installed the vista patch thing.

I tried the SBS Best Practices Analyzer and it came up with a few
issues that i thought might have fixed the problem but i was
wrong...still not working

I have disabled 1p6

And i am using Windows Vista Business on the client computers.

I have made a ghost image of the XP install so i can get back there is
all else fails but i would really like to get this going..... and
ideas??

Thanks in advance

Hello Customer,

Thank you for posting here.

According to your description, I understand that when you run the
connectcomputer wizard to add Vista client to SBS domain, you get error. If
I have misunderstood the problem, please don't hesitate to let me know.

Based on my research, I suggest we try the following steps to see if we can
resolve this issue:

1. Please run CEICW on SBS to reconfigure the network:

Go through the follow KB and rerun CEICW carefully.

How to configure Internet access in Windows Small Business Server 2003
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/825763/en-us

Detailed steps for your reference:

a. On the SBS 2003 Server open the Server Management console. Go to
Standard Management\To Do List.

b. Click the "Connect to the Internet" link.

c. When navigating to the Firewall page, select "Enable firewall" and click
Next.

d. On the "Services Configuration" page, select all the items and then
click Next.

e. On the "Web Services Configuration" page, make sure "Allow access to the
entire Web site from the Internet" is selected. If you select "Allow access
to only the following Web site services from the Internet", make sure all
items in the list are selected. Click Next.

f. On the "Web Server Certificate" page, choose to create a new Web server
certificate and then type the public domain name (your public DNS name)
that you will use to access OWA and RWW (for example, if your public domain
name that you use to access the sites is www.xyz.com, you should type
www.xyz.com as the new certificate name).

g. Go through the remaining steps.

2. Please ensure the Vista client DNS is pointing to SBS internal IP
address.

If we cannot resolve the issue after we perform the above steps, please
help me collect some information for further investigation:

1. Please capture screenshots on the error messages when you run
connectcomputer wizard on Vista client and send the pictures to me at
v-terliu@microsoft.com

2. Run command "ipconfig /all > c:\ipconfig_client.txt" and "route print >
c:\route_client.txt" on problematic Vista client, send the files
c:\ipconfig_client.txt and c:\route_client.txt to me at
v-terliu@microsoft.com

3. Gather MPS network report on SBS:

a. Download MPSrepot_network from
http://download.microsoft.com/download/b/b/1/bb139fcb-4aac-4fe5-a579-30b0bd9
15706/MPSRPT_NETWORK.EXE

b. Run MPSRPT_NETWORK.exe.

c. The tool will automatically collect the information. This procedure will
take 10~15 minutes.

d. Open Windows Explorer, navigate to the folder:
%SystemRoot%\MPSReports\Network\Reports\Cab\

e. Send the .cab file directly to me at v-terliu@microsoft.com

4. What do you mean by "Connect to network" and "nshelp.exe"?

I hope these steps will give you some help.

Thanks and have a nice day!

Best regards,

Terence Liu(MSFT)
