Hi all,

I've got a strange question for everyone. For the past three mornings, when I come into work, the Web Proxy service, Socks Proxy service etc. etc. have all stopped. I can simply restart these services and everyone has internet access again. I've checked the event log for any pointers but to no avail. Any ideas? We're using Proxy Server 2 whcih came as part of SBS.

TIA

Jack
 
I have been scouring any source I can find for an answer to this one. I also have the same problem only it happens to me on Saturday night/Sunday Morning. I can find no reason for it. It seems noone has an answer considering the age of this thread. If you have found a solution I would like to hear about it.

Thanks
Benson
 
It's a bit of a wierd one, but for starters have you applied Proxy Server 2.0 Service Pack 1? It addresses a number of issues that could cause the service to fail, although it's a pretty old patch.
 
I believe I am on SP2 for proxy(I will 2xcheck) 6A for NT.
SPs have been applied for quite awhile 1yr +
Plus I did all the security patches as well.

Can't really remember when this started though.

 
Sorry, misinformation. There is only a SP1 for proxy (HEE HAW). Since installing the security patches is it necessary to reinstall the SPs for proxy and NT?
