    - RDC To some pc's Hi. I have a problem that came up about two days ago with RDC to certain pc's. I have been running SBS2003 SP2, OWA, RWW with out a hitch. Then all of a sudden RDC to certain pc's won't work. Get Error: " Client could not connect, too busy, network problems, try again later" in short. I can RDC locally and publicly (WAN) to the SERVER and a COUPLE of pc's through RWW. This tells me the router is still configured properly with ports and such. I can ping server from trouble pc's and visa versa. What in the world could have happened or changed? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    - Remote assistance will not launch. Please help System. Windows 2003 SBS standard SP2 all patches up to date. I have a strange problem where I canâ??t get remote assistance to launch on this system. The problem seems to be that the remote assistance application will not start. I see the problem regardless of which side makes the request. Note Iâ??ve been trying to debug this with systems that are local to the lan. I can get other machines to remote assist each other so the problem is not anything to do with port mapping. It is simply that for some reason the remote assistance application will not start on the SBS system. In all of these examples the user on the sbs machine is the administrator. Example 1: Windows Server 2003 requests assistance to another system. 1) I have Windows Messenger 5.1 running on the SBS 2003 machine 2) I request remote assistance via help and support or either via messenger. 3) The request is sent to the expert machine. 4) The â??expertâ?? accepts the request. 5) I get a message on the SBS â??noviceâ?? system indicating that the expert has accepted the request 6) The expert systems launches the remote assistance application 7) The remote assistance application never launches on the SBS machine. Actually nothing seems to happen on this machine 8) On the â??expertâ?? machine I get the dialog box stating â??Remote Assistance cannot connect because (username) denied the request for help. Where (username) is the windows messenger username. Example 2: Request from the XP â??noviceâ?? machine to remote assistance to the SBS â??expertâ?? machine 1) From within messenger on the â??noviceâ?? XP machine ask the user on the SBS machine for assistance. 2) Within Messenger on the SBS machine I get a request for remote assistance. 3) The SBS user accepts the request. 4) Messenger on the SBS â??Expertâ?? machine says you have accepted the request 5) Messenger on the XP indicates that the invitation has been accepted. 6) Nothing further happens on the SBS â??expertâ?? machine. I seen KB article kb330113 Remote Assistance, Application Sharing, or Whiteboard Session Does Not Start After Remote Computer Accepts Your Invitation but this refers to having both windows messenger and msn messenger installed on the same machine. The SBS machine only has windows messenger installed Tag: Add New servers to an existing active directory domain. Tag: 402235

    - WebAdmin popup accessing a website on on itnternal network Running SBS 2003 SP2, IIS is setup with default website, plus one additional website that is available from the Internet. When trying to access this website internally, an authentication window pops up, saying the server xyz.com at WebAdmin requires a username and password. I am not able to get around this trying by supplying user/pw or domain/user/pw. I have added host header values in IIS for xyz and xyz.com on the internal IP address but it doesn't make a difference. The host header values setup for access externally work fine. What do I need to do to make this work? Tag: Add New servers to an existing active directory domain. Tag: 402223

    - DFS replication between Windows Sever 2003 R2 & SBS Hello, We have a Windows Sever 2003 R2 Standard Edition SP2(hostname is Mars) running on Intel Core2 Quad CPU Q6600 @2.4GHz and a Windows Sever 2003 for Small Business Server SP2(hostname is Doublehelix) running on Dual Core AMD Opteron Processor 270 @ 2.01GHz. They are on the same sub-network but in different locations and domains(lakescom.net & blcomfor.local). Each of them is a domain computer of the other one. Doublehelix has most of our important data, applications and MSSQL services only. A fault tolerance/disaster recovery solution is necessary for us. If Doublehelix goes down, users can still access data and run programs on Mars. First, we created DFS roots and linked them to share folders on both servers, and then tried DFS replication group for data collection on Mars but failed. The error said â??Doublehelix.lakescom.net: the service control manager cannot be opened. Access is deniedâ??. We are not sure if the reason is, that not all new functionality (snap in's) are showing after doublehelix upgraded to SBS R2, specifically the DFS management console. Could you please tell me what would cause this problem? In our case, is the DFS replication possible and enough for us? If so, how can we implement it? Does one domain have to be removed? Do we need to upgrade one or both servers? If so, which edition (2003 Enterprise/2008)? Is Severs-Cluster or High-Availability system applicable and necessary? Any other solution available?

    - Problem after removed "domain users" from "local administrator"s g Hello all, We are running SBS 2003 SP1 Premium with approx 14 workstations running Windows XP Pro SP2. We finally decided to remove the "domain users" group from the "local administrators" group on the workstations and since doing that we have a strange problem happening. The users can log on the network successfully but then they can not start any programs - as soon as I reverse this setting everything is fine again. This does not make sense to me - has anyone come across this before? We want this setting to tighten up on security...so users can no longer install applications, etc. If anyone has any suggestions on how to fix this that would be great!! Thanks so much in advance!

    - Server/Drive Speed I have taken on a client who had a Dell Precision Workstation (2.x GHz P4 with 1 GB RAM) converted to a server (SBS 2003). They have 2 IDE hard drives (1 for OS and one for Data). They seem to be having a lot of random problems with email: Exchange and SMTP services stopping or not starting, Queues occasionally not emptying, ... Can hardware speed have effects on such things. I am considering suggesting that we flatten the server and start over, or that they put it back into service as a workstation and buy an new "SERVER" with RAID drives, etc. Any thought would be greatly appreciated. Also they are fairly low budget; do current SATA drives perform adequately to handle all of the tasks necessary for domain control and email. My best performing accounts have SCSI or SAS, but not sure they can swing the extra there. Thanks -- Bob Showalter Packer International Tag: Add New servers to an existing active directory domain.

    - proxy setting policy removal I am running a sbs2000 system. We currently have the ISA installed, but are not using it. We have a hardware firewall we are using for security. Once in awhile the desktop machines will get an error because they are trying to use the server as the proxy instead of going directly to the internet. Is there a way I can remove any proxy policy(s) or even create a policy that makes sure that there are no proxy settings? Tag: Add New servers to an existing active directory domain. Tag: 402169

    - Problems Reinstalling Intranet (WSS 2.0 & CompanyWeb) I'm running SBS 2003 SP1. I had installed WSS 3.0, side-by-side install using the docs, and then removed it. I am now having problems with the intranet (WSS 2.0 & CompanyWeb). I followed directions from MS Support (829114) but I cannot reinstall the Intranet component now. I get the following error from the sbs installer... "An error occurred while installing Windows SharePoint Services and creating your intranet site.".

    - Internet Connection Timeouts & Failures Hi, We are encountering â??Error Code 10060 Connection Timeoutâ?? errors very regularly (5% - 10% of our web requests) ever since we replaced our SBS 2000 (running on old hardware) with SBS 2003 R2 Premium (running on a new). Most pages that donâ??t â??timeoutâ?? load slowly. This happens on the server itself as well as for our users. Weâ??re running ISA 2004 and it appears to be configured correctly (no errors or warnings from the ISA Best Practices Analyzer). Iâ??ve configured the new server to match the old server wherever possible and weâ??re using the default Firewall rules. There were no changes to the network topography or hardware, and weâ??re using the same broadband provider & level of service. All our users are running XP Pro, are using the SBS Firewall client and have the same security privileges. We donâ??t block any sites or restrict any traffic. The Firewall monitor shows â??alertsâ?? that there are â??timeoutsâ?? and sometimes that there is â??no connectivityâ??. I get matching entries in the Application Event log (see details below). Any ideas on how to improve our internet response time would be greatly appreciated.

    - Applying SBS SP1 atop of Windows Server 2003 SP2 Hey Guys, Need to ask I ran the best practices analyzer tool on an SBS 2003 SP2 machine. Seems all the patches were applied EXCEPT Windows SBS 2003 SP1, Win2003 SP2 was already applied. I guess there are some updates to the POP connector and a few other SBS only updates in SBS SP1. My question is, will there be any issues applying SBS SP1 if 2003 SP2 has already been applied? Will I have to re-install SP2 after the SBS SP1 update is applied? What about Exchange SP2 should that also be re-applied after the SBS SP1 update? Thanks for any valuable advice, the SBS SP1 and Exchange service packs are not usually detected by windowsupdate.

    - SBS 2003 licensing I hope this is the correct forum for this question. I have a SBS server in local office with the original 5 user CALs. We have up to 7 users although only 4-5 usually access the server at any one time. We have a remote office that has workstations that connect to the server to run various applications. They are using Terminal server. All workstations are XP Pro. We set up a backup server at the remote office which uses VPN, mounted disk and backup software to backup the server. The backup server worked fine at suppliers and could connect and backup OK when tested. When it was installed at the remote office it originally worked Ok but we are now experiencing connection problems; the VPN fails to connect. The remote workstations often experience problems as well. I sometimes have trouble using Remote Desktop Connection from my home office to the server as well. It has been suggested that the problem is related to licensing. If it is a licensing issue do we need more User CALs or do we need Termnal Server CALs? I am not familiar with licensing so please keep replies as simple as possible. Many Thanks Ket Tag: Add New servers to an existing active directory domain. Tag: 402091

    - Local Vista Profile Question I have a Vista Business client computer on an SBS 2003 R2 server. The user is complaining about everything being slow (ie takes 45 seconds to come up). When they log in under a different user name on the same computer everything works great. That makes me think it's a profile issue. Normally in Windows XP I just rename the c:\documents and settings\(username) folder to something else. The next time the log in a new profile is created for them and I just have to go to their old profile to grab their IE shortcuts and some desktop icon shortcuts. A new Outlook profile is created and their My Documents are in tact from the server. Simple process.... but when I do the same thing in Vista (although going to c:\users\(username) folder and renaming it, when go to log back in Vista is telling me there was an error with the profile and instead loads up a temporary profile and says no changes will be saved (shortcuts etc). Any ideas here? Thanks! -Richard K Tag: Add New servers to an existing active directory domain. Tag: 402057

    - Slightly OT: Are you going for SBS 2008 this year, or will you wait? I ask this since I remember the old adage "never buy a new product until the first Servcie Pack is out"; however, I wonder if this is still true - at least for this product. Personally I'm leaning toward buying it this year or right after the new year (new budget cycle).

    - Script to copy Temporary Internet Files to Server? Having been asked to try and monitor internet usage for a small company I help with IT issues, I came across this article http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/itdojo/?p=3D146&tag=3Dnl.e101 Quote Monitoring your users=92 Internet activity is an often unwelcome part of an IT professional=92s job. Few of us want to be the office=92s secret police. However, many companies require some level of Internet monitoring to ensure compliance with usage policies and to track problem users.If monitoring software is too costly for your IT department=92s budget, you may want to consider a technique that uses existing Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 functionality. In this IT Dojo video, I demonstrate a simple monitoring solution that uses Windows Server 2003 Group Policy. Before watching the video, you should realize this tip isn=92t right for every situation. This method uses Windows XP and Internet Explorer=92s local browsing history. To view the history files, you must physically visit each machine, remotely access the machine, or copy the files to a network location with a script. Furthermore, a sophisticated end- user could easily navigate to and delete the browser history. This monitoring technique is best suited when monitoring a small number of users, or better yet, a single, problem user. If you=92re looking for a more robust Internet monitoring solution, I recommend you go with a commercial service or application. As there are only 5 users, I though the script idea would be easy. I think it should be something like this copy C:\Documents and Settings\%userprofile%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\*.* \\server\Internet\%userprofile%\ /y Would I add this to the SBS_LOGIN_SCRIPT.bat Regards Trevor Tag: Add New servers to an existing active directory domain.

    - Licensing, Activation, Backup, & Re-Installation. Help! I inherited a SOHO network after the SOHO business moved to a new location. They also changed business type and market. I wiped their servers and re-installed OS and software using what I found in cardboard boxes after the move. Some of the items which went into storage during the move never made it to the new office (or were damaged or tampered with). The SBS 2003 software is apparently of questionable authenticity (either that, or Microsoft's Activation system is buggy). I cannot activate the OS. I ordered a new set of CD's and key from Microsoft directly. What we received is SBS 2003 R2 Premium. The existing server won't recognize the key we received from Microsoft. Apparently, I must wipe and reinstall again with the new CD's and new key obtained directly from MS. However, I had already setup the server the way the SOHO owner/manager wants the system to work. I don't want to go through all of that again. What needs to be backed up, what needs to be restored, and what steps need to be taken (in what sequence) to wipe, re-install, activate, and have the system running exactly the way it is now (all the configurations, policies, shares, user accounts, etc.)? Thanks, Fred <>< P.S.: I'll have to perform a similar procedure again within a few months because the SOHO owner plans to buy a completely new server with SBS 2008 as soon as SBS 2008 becomes available.

    - SBS Warning: Routable IP Address During installation of SBS I get the warning: The network adapter selected to access the local network is assigned a routable IP address. As a result, the DHCP service on the server cannot be installed and then configured by Setup. It is recommended that you use a private IP address for your server's local network adapter, as this is a more secure configuration. Here are the settings on our network: SBS: 172.200.0.5 AD Server: 172.200.0.1 Gateway: 172.200.0.1 DHCP: 172.200.0.50 and up Should we use different IP addresses?

I'm running SBS 2003 with 4 gigs of Ram, when I look at the properties for my paging file, it says the current size is 3701 MB but that it recommends I set it to 4606.

    - DHCP Problem Very strange problem for you all. We have a server running SBS 2003 configured for remote access via VPN's. Everything works fine except for the VPN clients get disconnected regularly. By regular I mean the same time every hour. The time they are disconnected coincides with when DHCP service was last started. So if DHCP service was started at 10:05 the VPN users are disconnected every 5 past the hour. I've done a network trace and sure enough every hour there are 4 DHCP Discover packets followed by 4 DHCP offer packets. The client MAC address inside this packet is 00:00:00:00:00:00 and hence no machine is actually assigned the offered IP address. What could be causing the zero mac address request?

    - Slow access to network files in SBS Premium 2003 I just upgraded a client from a Server 2000 basically running in Workgroup mode to a SBS 2003 Premium running full Active directory/Domain services. Now some of the users are complaining that it is taking longer to access their files that are stored on the server. They are mainly small files too, mostly Excel and Word files. The server is plenty 'beefy' with 4GB of RAM, Xeon processor, and RAID 5 SCSI drives all on a 100 megabit switched network. Is there anything I can check or tweak to help speed up network access??

    - Printers not Publishing I installed a new printer on an SBS 2003 R2 Premium server via the To Do List/Add Printer wizard. Everything worked great. When I had the XP clients log off and log back on (even tried restarting XP client) the printer did not appear in their list of available printers. I am pretty sure if I add a printer the way I did it should be published to everyone without each user going through the steps of Adding a printer on their XP machine. What am I missing here?

    - Installation locks up eating memory Hi I posted a few days ago about a problem with SBS2003 fresh install locking up during server tools setup on Internet Explorer 6.0 installtion. I had a reply saying it was probably due to an active internet connection. Since this i have installed a brand new harddrive and pulled the plug on the router while attempting the setup. Again the initial part of the setup is fine, its when it gets to the actual server configuration. Its gets as far as installing server tools, the message says its doing internet explorer 6.0. Ive left it at this point for several hours and it gets no futher. A look in the process list shows the setup process is just eating more and more memory. After a few hours it was up past 1gb of memory. I searched the harddrive for what was growing as i was also loosing harddrive space during this point. It turned out it was a log file (eventlog.txt) it keeps adding the same lines over and over again - these are [07/04/08,09:37:38] Setup.exe: GetCustomProperties() [07/04/08,09:37:38] Setup.exe: get_CustomProperties() [07/04/08,09:37:39] Setup.exe: GetCustomProperties() [07/04/08,09:37:39] Setup.exe: get_CustomProperties() [07/04/08,09:37:39] Setup.exe: GetCustomProperties() [07/04/08,09:37:39] Setup.exe: get_CustomProperties() [07/04/08,09:37:39] Setup.exe: GetCustomProperties() [07/04/08,09:37:39] Setup.exe: get_CustomProperties() [07/04/08,09:37:39] Setup.exe: GetCustomProperties() [07/04/08,09:37:39] Setup.exe: get_CustomProperties() [07/04/08,09:37:39] Setup.exe: GetCustomProperties() [07/04/08,09:37:39] Setup.exe: get_CustomProperties() [07/04/08,09:37:39] Setup.exe: GetCustomProperties() [07/04/08,09:37:39] Setup.exe: get_CustomProperties() Ive got lots more logs, but i cant attach them as the message is too big then.

    - Migrating SBS 2003 To new hardware - Need Help! Sorry for this, but I really need some advice... I am moving an old SBS 2003 installation to new hardware (with new licenses). I am following the Technet whitepaper "Migrating Windows Small Business Server 2003 to New Hardware". I completed Step 2 of the white paper and was waiting for "Line of Business" application developer to set a date of when they can be on site to move their application before I proceeded to migrate Exchange. In the mean time, the server started rebooting today every hour with event codes 1001, 1012, 1011. The event codes say that I am in violation of EULA since I have two SBS servers in the same domain (following the instructions from Technet as described in the white paper above). It appears that there is a two week limit on having two domain controllers on the same SBS Domain! So... with my customer's application server rebooting every hour (this really isn't funny - Nagware at its worst!), does anyone have a suggestion? - Is there a way to lengthen or reset the timer? Two more weeks would do it. - Can I reverse the steps in the white paper and restart when the vendor is ready? This would be painful as the original process took 4 - 5 hours to get this far (the old hardware is lacking). - Proceeding with the installation cannot occur for a couple of days, which means the Doctor's office server will reboot 20 - 30 times...

    - Public shared contacts in exchange 2003 for outlook users Two needs around public folders: 1. One of my customers needs several groupings of public address list of various orginization groups that can be set up by a clerk and read by the staff managers. My understanding is that you can do this in exchange, but so far my seaching has not yet found the "how to" document on microsofts technet. Can you point me to the right place? 2. The CEO also wants these new list to sync with his palm. Is this even possable? Tag: Add New servers to an existing active directory domain. Tag: 401897

    - Server Management Console Has Blank Pane SBS 2003 SP2 Standard Edition. Server has been the most stable of all the ones I look after. Event logs squeaky clean, etc. Trouble started within a week of installing AVG 8.0 Anti-Virus SBS Edition. Coincidence? Symptom is that there is a blank pane displayed for every node one clicks on in server manager except for some of the Advanced Management nodes. I have set the usual scan exceptions with AVG but it makes not difference. All services are running and the event logs are clean. I have done an IIS reset but no joy. Any idea how I might get to the bottom of this? Tag: Add New servers to an existing active directory domain. Tag: 401891

    - DNS Configuration I have one machine running SBS 2003 SP 2. DNS is configured on this machine. Recently we had a website set up for us but hosted outside. I can't access our website from our network as I keep getting error messages that the page could not be displayed. I have no problem accessing the webside from anycomputer outside our network. I pinged domainname.org and got replies from my Server's internal IP address. I then pinged www.domainname.org and got the message that "ping request could not find host www.domainname.org." Since this looks like an internal DNS issue, where in the DNS Manager can I go to and have www.domainname.org point at the correct IP address? Thank you in advance.

    - EventID 221 Good evening! Have a client who is terribly under-licensed: SBS2003 Premium. I remoted into their server today to do something and was greeted with the warning. I then looked in the Event Viewer and in the Application Log saw the 221. This Event ID ed for appeared for the first time today (kinda surprised that it took this long....). Question: what happens next (and 'client purchasing sufficient CALs' is not necessarily the answer....)? I know that with 'normal' Windows you can disable the Licensing Server. That service is flaky at best. I have done it at least 75 times in the last two years. No repercussions (but, then, all the clients are properly licensed!). However, I *know* that many things are different with SBS2003. Let's just assume for a moment that the client is not going to take our recommedation (today formally via e-mail; made many times over the last year verbally....) to purchase an additional XX number of User CALs. Will the system let only the first 20 users log on (as they do have 20 User CALs - at least this is what I see in the LICENSING section of Server Management) and deny every subsequent user that trys to log on? I have heard that this will happen but have never seen any documentation. If so, when does this start? Next week? Next month? We need to advise our client what their time frame is (if it were up to me we would not be in this situation to begin with....).

    - SBS 2003 and TS 2008? Can a Windows 2008 Server Terminal Server co-exist with a SBS 2003 server? If so, how do you setup the licensing server? Has anyone done this? Thanks, Shelly Tag: Add New servers to an existing active directory domain. Tag: 401846

    - Existing Server 2000 add SBS 2003-same domain or new? I have a simple one machine domain using Windows Server 2000. Exchange is not currently being used (but will be in the sbs 2003). I have just purchased SBS 2003 preloaded from Dell on a new server and I want to add it so it is the "main" machine for the company but would like to have the users have the same logins etc that they have using the existing windows 2000 server. Not sure what to expect when I plug the new Dell into the existing network and walk through any wizards that may appear. I have seen much documentation but still not sure best/easiest way to do this so that the SBS 2003 has all the roles it needs and the original windows 200 server can be either just used as a file server or taken off line without any domain consequences. Or would it just be easier to create a new domain with the new SBS 2003 and reconfigure users. Not sure what happen to their Outlook stuff etc as that is login dependent on the old domain? There are 7 users in the company. Thanks, sd Tag: Add New servers to an existing active directory domain. Tag: 401839

    - CALs/unable to create mailboxes I've just purchased 10 more user CALs for small business server 2003, specifically two of the per-user 5-CAL type (T74-00002). I had 20 CALS installed previously. Running SBS 2003 Sp2. I'm running into a problem now when I create a new user with an email address using the wizard, and the mailbox is not created. Logging in with outlook and OWA doesn't create the mailbox, in fact I get errors. OWA returns an "http/1.1 503 Service Unavailable" error, and Outlook returned an error that I'm assuming has something to do with the mailbox not existing (don't remember the exact wording.) I've sent test emails as well. I've since rebooted the server, and based on some information on the web had both 'updated' and 'rebuilt' the Recipient Update Service from the exchange manager, but still no mailboxes. I count a total of 20 mailboxes, I seemed to be maxed out even though I should have 30 now. Is it a problem with the CALs, or is there something else I need to do?

A vendor is installing Microsoft CRM, Project server, Sharepoint server and
SQL server on two new servers running MS Server Standard 2008.

They want us to have our existing SBS 2003 server acting as our domain
controller and active directory and file and print and exchange.

The other servers are going to act as an applications server (for
sharepoint, project amd CRM and the other will act as a database server (SQL)

I have the servers up and running but I am unsure of how to add them to our
network - any assistance would be gratefully recieved.
