Thanks Dave - appreciate the pointer. - Have you actually used forensIT to do a SBS profile migration and is a particular version reqd (Personal, Professional or Enterprise)? - what about the SBS "SERVER/connectcomputer" process? - this would seem to replace that and I have always been under the...

I need to migrate a number of Win XP and Win 7 (64 bit) Workstations from one SBS 2003 domain (domain1.local) to another SBS 2003 domain (domain2.lan) this weekend. Can some body point me to a failsafe method to transfer the user profiles into the new domain at the same time so that I do not...

Hi, This is a regular SBS 2003 Server based domain with < 20 workstations. From the "Server Management_Client Computers" interface on the SBS 2003 box I rht-clk on any workstation and select "Connect using Terminal Services" to logon to any of the workstations on a regular basis. Recently...

Hi, Dell PE830 is using a RAID 1 array on a CERC SATA 1.5/6ch card. I'd like to use a SATA connection off the motherboard to connect a HDD that can be 'hot-swapped' for backups - is this possible while retaining the RAID controller to run the system. Thanks.

Hi, As part of the requirements for installing an application I am advised to have .NET 1.1 installed. While .NET 1.1 shows as registered in IIS and I get "command unknown" when I execute "aspnet_regiis.exe –lv" in a cmd window and after installing the app I get a '404' error on the login...

Thanks Joey, That did it! I only unchecked the IEESC for "Administrators and Power Users" for now and that enabled me to do the download/install. Thanks again,

Hi, I am trying to install a client/server app on my sbs 2003 r2 box that requires 'Flash' - but when I attempt to install flash from the Adobe site I get the "Information Bar" message - "Your security settings do not allow websites to use ActiveX controls installed on your computer. This page...

Thanks for advice. There is no scheduled backup running on this machine at present, niether is Exchange configured as yet. Only things added to the basic OS install I can think of are APC UPS agent and Trend Micro AV. I've setup the Performance Logs and Alerts as best I can from your...

Hi, My 'performance report' is flagging an 'Allocated Memory Error' occuring daily (sometimes twice) around 4:00am. Obviously I'm not watching the Task Manager at that time of day and when I do check nothing is amiss. I already took care of the dreaded SQL memory grab before so I know it's not...

Hi, I would like to replace the "680MIDE 48x LGData" CD Drive in my Dell PE840 with a LG "DVD-GSA-H55N-BK". Can anybody tell me if I would have driver (or any other) issues when setting up the server from scratch. I realize the OS (SBS 2003) would either have a driver or allow me to install...

We are creating an MS-Access DB that is to be used both locally (head office) *and* from 4 remote locations. I am planning to install the DB 'back-end' at 'head office' and use Terminal Server (TS) connections from each of the remote buildings to access this DB from custom 'front-end' I have...

New Provider initiated service a week ago and after some initial glitches with the sbs (re)configuration and smtp servers we are now running. Testing is underway and intitial results appear to be better. (1.5Mb/sec both ways)

Thanks for that confirmation of what I suspected - unfortunately *the* issue is more the "estimating appl" than anything else and this customer really needs the remote functionality to get their work done. We have signed up with a provider that currently services a number of VPN installations...

Good to know there is someone else out there supporting this s/w on an SBS box albeit "std" vs the "Premium" I just did :^) Since you're doing this on a "SBS 2k3 Standard" you should not have any problems. Once you click the install btn the CD will automatically install SQL 2005 Express after...
