    A customer has asked for help with this, and given me remote access, and my Google searching is not helping. SU doesn’t seem to have anyone available to help in chat currently, so I’m trying here.I start it up, run the Setup your Internet address and Configure a Smart Host for Internet e-mail wizards, only to be told that the Connect to the Internet wizard must be completed first. Fine, I’ll do that.I start that wizard, it detects the router IP and the Server IP. DHCP and DNS are disabled in the

    windows-server-2008-r2 exchange-2010 windows-sbs
    This is a quick question: I want/need to set up a Exchange 2010 Server on my home server (mainly for testing but will be needed).I understand the downsides of hosting my mail on my dedicated hardware, but I need it anyway.Already have a Server 2008 R2 setup, but I’m considering Small Business Server 2011. My Server is not that advanced (quad-core, 4 GB Ram, Dual NIC), but, It’ll be serving(Exhange, there’s more AD users) 5 to 10 users tops (average around 4 or 5).I want to know: Which Os will be

    In the past 24 hours our Windows SBS 2003 server has twice experienced an unexpected shutdown, resulting in the server going into a power off/standby state – not an OS standby.Upon restart (finger on the power button type), the usual “why did your server unexpectedly shutdown” messages occur; however, the event logs shows no indication of what might have caused this. The events simply stop and restart at the point at which the power is back on. There are no indications of Blue Screening, nothing

    windows encryption windows-sbs user-profile
    I am running SBS Server 2011. I encrypted a text file file1 and placed it under the documents folder in the user profile of user1. Now I accidentally removed user1’s account when I was adding/removing email accounts in the Exchange Management Console. When I tried to recreate user1 in windows SBS Console it says that it cannot be done because the profile already exists. I also cannot copy rename or take control of the profile user1 even when logged in under an administrator account as it conta

    is it possible to have a configuration in a Windows 2003 SBS environment where in the event that the SBS box crashed/turned off/ or is being worked on that there can still exist a path to the internet for domain users and visitors to still use?I would like to have the standalone router issue DHCP IPs. The primary DNS would point to the SBS, the secondary wouuld point to the ISP DNS Server.My theory was that if someone was using the internet and the SBS box went down they wouldn’t be able to acce

    I have a weird issue, which I think may be related to a disk issue, but I haven’t been able to prove this, so before I do something draconian (reinstall, which is a PITA), I’m hoping someone here can help.I have win2k3sbs installed from a leftover license my employer has of an Action Pack subscription, and it was given to me so I can familiarize myself more with windows (I’m a BSD guy at a BSD-friendly ISP). It’s been working fine, and I installed the R2 on it, but there’s this particular updat

    backup windows-sbs acronis
    I have a small business customer who needs a solution similar to Acronis’s SBS Server backup.Essentially, I would like image based differential backups to be performed nightly to the external drive connected to their PowerEdge server. If anything crashes, I can guide them over the phone on how to restore the previous image via the Acronis startup restore option.Here’s the problem: the $499 price tag. I’m afraid the client is not willing to pay $500, especially since they are aware that the softw

    windows-server-2008 backup email windows-sbs-2008 windows-sbs
    I have a client who is using Windows Server 2008 (Small Business Server), and using Windows Backup.What I need to do is configure the backup task so that, upon completion, it sends an email notifying the client of backup success or failure. I have been able to find that task in task scheduler, and even see where I can send an email…but I cannot find a way to make the content of the email different based on success or failure of the backup. How might I do this?

    I have a Windows Server 2003 Small Business Server that has begun crashing more and more often. The machine does not physically power off(so I don’t think it is a power supply issue), but it does not respond to any network activity. When I force a restart by holding down the power button(at 11:43:20 AM), the only relevant Event Log entry says “The previous system shutdown at 3:45:11 AM on 7/21/2009 was unexpected.”This first started about a year ago, when the machine would do this once every 3 o

    I have a SBS 2011 server that started crashing a few days ago. This issue occurred on a Sunday night at 11:55pm of a holiday long weekend. There would have been almost no one accessing the server at that time. I have not made any changes to the server in weeks. The last changes were regular updates from MS which did not cause any issues.When it crashed and it got stuck in a boot sequence where it would blue-screen trying to Apply Computer Settings. There is no error-code given when the system bl
