RE: SMB question..

[Ken Schaefer]

No one is arguing the benefit of the time saving of the wizards.

But we want to know how the products installed on an SBS 2003 server are 
different to the separate products installed on the same box. Having run SBS 
2003 before, I can't really see any real difference.

Being the outside contractor, I love the Wizards.  Yeah, I COULD set up all the 
Group Policies, seperatly install and Configure WSUS, Configure OWA and Forms 
bases authentication, and everything else that is considered 'best practices" 
on a stand alone server / Exchange install, or I could pop in the SBS CD, let 
it rip, run through the Wizards and in an hour or so have a fully functioning, 
secure, domain and exchange enviroment.  Hell, SBS even automatically creates a 
reverse lookup Zone in DNS for you.  It even emails your back up reports to you 
if you want.

Time is money to a SBS customer.  I can create a more secure network in less 
time using SBS install than I could ever hope to trying to do it with stand 
alone products.

That would be an interesting challenge, I'd love to participate in on either 
side.  Set up SBS, VS. Setting up Server2k3 / Exchange / OWA / NTBackup with 
FBA, WSUS, SharePoint / and All the group Policies for the firewall and such on 
the same box.


The thing to remember here, and to not to get off topic is SBS is MORE than 
Exchange+Server2003.  It's a full package product with a tone of bells and 
whistles aimed a a very spefic market.  Too many people just think that its 
"Server+Exchange"

RE: Can we limit administration to One DHCP server in a domain?

Malcom,

Not all companies can afford to have separate server for DHCP. As consultants, 
we find DHCP service running on DC much more often than not.

(1) What is wrong with separate DHCP server for each site?
(2) This company is splitting and that site needs to be administered by some 
"outside" guys who will not be domain admins at this time.

  Citation needed.  Everything I've read seems to indicate it's just
registry tuning and similar that you can do on the stand-alone SKUs.
It's done for you, which is a benefit, but you can do it yourself if
you know how.

  "core fundamental design changes" is a heck of a claim.

  I'm really ambivalent about those things.  Their purpose is largely
to let people who have no business mucking around as administrator
think they know what's going on.  IT management is not something you
want an untrained person doing, even for a small business.  Just like
you don't want a small business doing their own plumbing or electrical
wiring.  And yes, many do all of that themselves.Doesn't make it a
good idea.  I'm aware of the cost arguments; I argue that the money is
better spent hiring an outside contractor.  IMO, YMMV, etc.  You don't
have to agree.

> SBS is Designed to have all those component running together, Exchange
> and Server 2k3 are not.

  Again, please explain how the Windows Server and Exchange Server
that come with SBS have a different "design" from the ones that come
with the stand-alone SKUs.  If the design is so different, I would not
expect them to run the same software, but last checked, they did.

  From everything I've read, the various product development groups
inside Microsoft would really rather the different products not be put
together on the same OS instance.  Ever.  They see SBS as something
they would rather avoid having to do.  But SBS is a business reality,
because otherwise Microsoft would price themselves out of the small
business market.  So the various product groups have to make things
work together, rather than just saying "You can't do it".  This is a
good thing.  But it doesn't make SBS magic.

RE: SMB question..

[Jeremy Anderson]

SBS has some core fundamental design changes that allows Exchange to run 
"Better" and "More Secure" on a Domain Controller.  Plus the wizards and 
installers are set up in a way that allows all the services to co-exist in a 
happy way, preventing some issues like DLL overwrites and such.  It may not be 
"Enterprise" best practice, but its designed to be a Secure all in one package. 
 And it works VERY well for a small business.

There are several advantages to SBS over the regular "toss it on one server 
deal"  The biggest advantage is Licensing, 1 SBS cal covers Your Server CAL and 
Exchange CAL.  That alone is worth it.  Plus SBS is cheaper than buying 
Exchange and Server 2003 Separately, again, saving money for a small business 
which is VERY important.  Remote Web Workplace is awesome, as well as the 
server management console. The fax wizard works great.

If you install and properly use SBS, the "Connect computer" wizard sets up all 
the Exchange setting in the Outlook client, Configures IE, etc.  Very handy and 
keeps you from having to write Group Policies and PRF's.  Template GPO's for 
the firewall settings too is a BIG time saver.

Its not for everyone, but when its set up properly in the right environment, it 
rocks.

When I was consulting for small businesses I used to cringe when I walked into 
a network and see that some previous hack had put Exchange and Server2k3 
together on a box and the client had never even heard of SBS.

SBS is Designed to have all those component running together, Exchange and 
Server 2k3 are not.  Use the best tool for the job..

~70 workstations
Dell PowerEdge 2500SC
1 GB RAM
733 MHz CPU (single core)
90 GB HD storage (RAID 5, 18 GB x 6, hardware controller) Windows 2000 Server

albeit doing a lot less.

  We technically had (and still have) another Windows server, but it's more of 
a glorified desktop, and just does a handful of "utility"
tasks: MS WSUS, MS RIS, BlackBerry Enterprise Server, Symantec AV Server.

  Our newer server is running much of the same workload.  No problems yet.  
Knock on wood.  I'm hoping to finally get a dedicated Exchange server when we 
go to Win Server 2008.

> Is MS Windows SBS and option yet but not a reality..

  SBS is basically a purchase bundle, plus the installers do some of the 
integration/tuning work for you.  (Plus you get the SBS wizards.
Whether you consider that a feature or not is your call.)  SBS doesn't 
fundamentally change the underlying software.  So if SBS can do it, so can the 
individual piece parts bought and integrated separately.

  Microsoft Product Support Services will tell you they don't recommend running 
everything on the same box.  But that caveat applies *to SBS as well*.  PSS 
would really prefer SBS just didn't exist.  But PSS doesn't have to like it; 
they just have to support it.

  Certainly, if a given configuration is a bad idea for the stand-alone SKUs, 
it's an equally bad idea for SBS.  SBS isn't magic.

  All that said, it is true that spreading out your services across multiple 
servers is a always a good idea if you can afford it.  This is basically just 
not putting all your eggs in one basket.  If Exchange has some kind of 
heartburn and you need do heavy maintenance on the server, with a dedicated 
server, it means just Exchange is down.  If it's an all-in-one server, 
*everything* is down.  Plus, with everything on dedicated hardware, you don't 
have to worry about compatibility, integration, tuning, balancing, etc.

  But those are all administrative/planning benefits; they're not technical 
requirements of the software.

  Random example of something you have to worry about: Putting MS RIS and 
Exchange on the same filesystem (drive letter) will cause the SIS Groveler to 
puke all over the place.  (For 2000, anyway.)  But that applies to SBS, too.  
Dedicated Exchange server means you never encounter that problem.  Adequate 
testing means you encounter it and plan for it before going into production.

  I just yesterday started playing with Nortel IP phones.  Some of the

RE: SMB question..

[Ken Schaefer]

For a 20 user SMB business, this is probably going to start costing a lot more 
than they would be comfortable with (multiple extra Windows Server 2003 
licenses for starters)

As for comingling services - there's an increased risk involved. But for a 20 
user business that may be what they need to accept (and have accepted). There 
is no strict technical reason why you can't have DC, Exchange and IIS running 
on the same box. SBS would be preferable, but if it's not in there yet then 
putting it in just because someone thinks something "might" become unstable 
isn't money I'd be willing to spend.

Jay,

You can install DHCP on a member sever, however you will need to setup one 
server with a set scope (ie. 192.168.4.1 to 192.168.4.50) and another with a 
different scope.  The reason behind this is that each computer will grab an IP 
from the DHCP server, and if you have two servers running DHCP the computers 
won't know where to grab the IP from.  

As far as just setting him up to one DHCP server... I don't know if this can be 
done.  You could set him up with the DHCP Admin account and then only allow him 
to access the one server by setting up RDP with permissions.  On the other 
servers you could deny him access to those with RDP.

Now you see why we don't run other services on DCs :-)

You can't do what you want to do, because the security on a DC isn't granular 
enough.

If you want to investigate alternative solutions, I would ask: A) why do you 
have DHCP at each site? and B) why do you need local administration of the DHCP

that mixing all these services can lead to "issues" is probably thinking
of that.

If that web server is publicly accessible you've got yourself a whole
other can of worms. The rule of thumb is that you should not EVER mix
your publicly accessible services (web, email) with your authentication
server. Note how I didn't use any MS-specific terms there - the same
goes for Apache+NIS on any kind of UNIX-ish box.

>From a "horsepower" POV the only thing in that list that might cause a
problem is Exchange. Leaving that out I really doubt any of those
machines is anywhere close to being maxed out.

For ~20 users, I would suggest that the specs you have (2 x dual core CPUs, and 
8GB of RAM) is more than sufficient. I don't know how many disk spindles you 
have (since you don't mention RAID or number of disks)

We are having an internal tech discussion and wanted to have some thoughts from

We have a handful of small clients, less than 50 users (50 is an average.  The 
majority are under 20) that are currently running a single server that is 
acting as AD, file, print, IIS, DHCP, Internal DNS, and Exchange 2003 server on

The internal conversation / discussion that we are having is that a single

Server service stops responding..

[Cesare' A. Ramos]

Hellos.

Any thoughts or experiences while the server service on a MS Windows 2003 
standard server with latest patches randomly stops?  At times, a simple restart 
of the service works but most time a server restart is needed.

Anyone seen this.

This is something I more recently realized. *They* say they are
operating at Full-duplex. I have the admin password to the phone, and
it says its operating at Half-duplex.  Sure feels like Half-duplex to
me.  But I see no way to configure it.  *They* say thier denticle
phones at thier office are at Full.  I say, who cares - mine *arent*.

I am discovering that this is very true. The "NOC Manager" was
insisting upon me that someone come out and install a new switch for
additional data-only ports.  Yea sure, thats great - until I inquired
if it would be at my expense or not, for which he replied, "well yea,
you're going to have to pay for it".

So, sure, my chosen solution should be to ignore the obvious duplex
issue and just buy more equipment? Give me a break...

They claim this isnt the case, but I have my doubts about anything

  Yah, most web pages just have HTML.  The home page[1] has a bunch of
encoded values, which the JavaScript at the end[2] transforms into
something else.  It then replaces the main document body with that
something else.  There's no good reason to do this.  It's not useful
to protect the page source, since the browser can only render HTML,
thus the decode routine is right there.  It's obfuscation at best.

[1] More specifically, the top-level page which contains the frameset
for the home "page"
[2] for(var i=0;i BTW, got a handy link for a site that might decode that mess?

  I'm no expert at JavaScript, but it appears it's just shifting all
the characters's ASCII values by one.  A => B; B => C; etc.  While
that's a trivial encoding, I dunno of anything "ready made" that will
decode it.

My first guess would be Adobe 9.  I have seen many problems with it overall.  I 
am not sure I have seen that one, but printing in general is much slower with 9 
than it was with any earlier version.

Adobe Reader printing problem.

[Gavin Wilby]

Hi Guys,
I have to go site in the morning and have an issue to tackle straight away.

They all have Adobe Reader 8 and 9 (depending on how up to date they have
been), and a few users have been experiencing the same issue.

When they want to print the document, by doing a CTRL+P or a File/ Print,
the actual print dialog can take up to 2 minutes to appear. Once its there
all is OK, and works fine. It doesn't appear to matter if the document is
large or small.

All users are XP clients, all SP3. Two of our staff have looked at
this briefly (its not a show stopper, just a pain in the backside).

Anyone seen this and have any ideas. I thinking maybe a rogue network print

I'm gonna show my lack of web knowledge here.
I believe you are referring to the code in the index.html file, correct?
If that is correct, I'll ask the web gal to fix it, if she knows how.
If not, I'll poke around in it.
BTW, got a handy link for a site that might decode that mess?
I googled a bit but the couple of sites I tried either didn't work or

  The home page is obfuscated, using a JavaScript routine and a
character transform.  That sort of thing is very commonly used by
malware to dodge easy detection.  That might be it right there.

  I didn't bother decoding the obfuscation.  Whether it's actively
malicious or not, that's enough for me to stop looking and point a
finger at the web designer.  There's no good reason to do that.

We've has a few people complain that our church web site,
www.abingdonbiblechurch.org is infected.

Just got another email but details, as usual are sketchy.

I open it on all my computers and no warnings from Vipre,
Symantec or AVG.

Unfortunately, I don't have direct access to the hosting server.

I found one web based scanner but it appeared to only scan the
main page.  Wouldn't follow any of the links, but that one scan came
back clean.

Thanks

Glen.

RE: program for last accessed?

[Michael B. Smith]

Windows Explorer. Just add the column to the view.

 

(Note that this depends on you having NOT made the registry change which
suppresses the storage of lastAccessTime.)

If
they are going to use cloth diapers, pay for a diaper service for the 
first
little while. A stroller. A carseat. Crib bedding (but find out if they 
have

a theme).
Perhaps they are registered somewhere and you can see what's on their 
list.

Failing that, call one of the grandmothers because they'll likely know
exactly what she wants.

I know this isn't an Exchange specific forum, but figured I would start
here.

I will preface this question with letting you know I am not an Exchange
admin... unfortunately, I am the best we have right now.
We are running Exchange 2000.

We have what I hope is not a unique situation. We have a remote site in
the Netherlands and have to deal with the Dutch government for certain
export processes.

The requirement is that we setup a VPN between our remote site and this
branch of the Dutch government so we can send email to them without
publicly routing the email.
This is their requirement. 

The basic process is to have an application access a mailbox on our
Exchange system and send emails through the VPN to this Dutch government
location.
Could someone provide me an overview, link, suggestions, etc... for having
a mailbox on our Exchange system route all email to a certain SMTP address
through this tunnel without effecting other mail routing?

Any help is appreciated.

Don't argue, just say "yes dear" and walk away - and remember you can THINK 
whatever you want 'cause they can't hear it (possible to slip and transmit via 
body language though), but just don't *say* ANY of it :)

Finding someone to watch the baby overnight (or spend the night and be the one 
to get up with it) would be exceptional, especially if it is the type that 
sleeps a whopping 2 hours at a time. My youngest didn't sleep more than 5 hours

  I suppose it's possible the network switch built-in to the Polycom
phones just suck.

  Where is the above switch in the topology?  Were you copying between
two nodes connected to the D-Link, or using the D-Link to daisy-chain
to the Cisco, or what?

> Everything is hard-coded for 100 Mbps / Full-Duplex.

  Does that include the switch ports in the Polycom phones?

  Ethernet flow control may also be an issue, especially if it's
supported by some nodes and not others.

  Like everyone else said, traffic shaping of some kind (QoS, VLAN
priority, etc.) seems a likely culprit.  You've already said the
third-party service provider has issues with response time; maybe they
have issues with lack-of-clue as well.

  Another possibility: Do you just have a couple devices plugged into
the D-Link for testing?  If so, perhaps Cisco switches (being full of
active equipment) are running out of resources (buffer memory,
backplane bandwidth, etc.), while your D-Link switch (being mostly
idle) has resources to spare.

  I second the suggestion of a packet sniffer.

Way to go Kurt...that is awesome.  Make sure mom gets a monthly massage, and
buy some foot rub lotion...that'll keep you out of the doghouse no matter
how badly you screw up otherwise.

I must say thanks to all of you, for both the humor and the tips.

If we're lucky, our first will be delivered in September.

We've got heartbeat, but won't be confident until some time after March...

Subject: Can we limit administration to One DHCP server in a domain?

We have many sites in Winows 2003 domain with DHCP server running on a DC
on each site. We would like a user (who is not a member of Domain Admins
group) to administer only one DHCP server -- on his site. However, making
him a member of DHCP administrators group gives him rights on all DHCP
servers and DHCP users group can only view configuration of these servers.

Perhaps, installing DHCP on a member server is a solution, but can this be
achieved while keeping DHCP servers on DCs? Thanks.

Any ideas of suitable software?

Re: Paging the parents.

I have to agree with Andy on this and from what I have seen I seriously
doubt you get anything for free from Wal-Mart.  Remember they wanted to do
the RFID thing to track sales and product until the outcry started hurting
sales.

A maid to come in once a week for the first month to do basic housework

If they are going to use cloth diapers, pay for a diaper service for the

RE: Can we limit administration to One DHCP server in a domain?

[Cameron Cooper]

Jay,

You can install DHCP on a member sever, however you will need to setup one 
server with a set scope (ie. 192.168.4.1 to 192.168.4.50) and another with a 
different scope.  The reason behind this is that each computer will grab an IP 
from the DHCP server, and if you have two servers running DHCP the computers 
won't know where to grab the IP from.  

As far as just setting him up to one DHCP server... I don't know if this can be 
done.  You could set him up with the DHCP Admin account and then only allow him 
to access the one server by setting up RDP with permissions.  On the other 
servers you could deny him access to those with RDP.

We have many sites in Winows 2003 domain with DHCP server running on a DC on 
each site. We would like a user (who is not a member of Domain Admins group) to 
administer only one DHCP server -- on his site. However, making him a member of 
DHCP administrators group gives him rights on all DHCP servers and DHCP users 
group can only view configuration of these servers.

Perhaps, installing DHCP on a member server is a solution, but can this be 
achieved while keeping DHCP servers on DCs? Thanks.

As a parent of two, I agree you can never have too many of these.  And  
as someone pointed out before, don't worry about the size.  As their  
baby grows, they'll need them eventually.  It was always a very  
pleasant surprise to be poking around in the closet and find a brand  
new pack of diapers our child had just grown into.

No idea, dude.  I will say that in the south that if Tracie pees on the floor,

(tongue in cheek)

 

With all that information, I'll give you a definite: maybe.

 

If you can see it on a Windows server, then DPM can "recognize" it. That
doesn't mean that DPM will be able to do anything other than a normal
non-smart backup to it, if it doesn't support either open file agents or
VSS.

Can we limit administration to One DHCP server in a domain?

[Jay Kulsh]

We have many sites in Winows 2003 domain with DHCP server running on a DC on 
each site. We would like a user (who is not a member of Domain Admins group) to 
administer only one DHCP server -- on his site. However, making him a member of 
DHCP administrators group gives him rights on all DHCP servers and DHCP users 
group can only view configuration of these servers.

Perhaps, installing DHCP on a member server is a solution, but can this be 
achieved while keeping DHCP servers on DCs? Thanks.
