We are Running Microsoft Backoffice Small Business Server. In this product we are using the proxy server for ISP connection. The problem I am having is the system dials out without anyone making a request for Internet access. It seems to randomly connect. How do I stop that from happening an make it access on demand only?

Is it version 4.0 or 4.5?<br>
Are you running Exchange Server to get external E-mail?<br>
<br>
Look in "Microsoft Exchange Administrator"<br>
click on the Folders along the left side<br>
find "Configuration"<br>
then "Connections"<br>
you will see "Internet Mail Service" on the right<br>
Open it<br>
click the "dial up connections" tab<br>
Are there any times to dial?<br>
If so uncheck any "Available connections" in the list shown below.<br>

Make sure that you specify the number of redial attempts under your user preferences (dial-up connection). It especially applies to Exchange, where your server is trying to connect to the ISP and cannot connect for some or other reason - it will keep on trying till it reaches this setting
