Windows 2003 SMall Business Server

[CuzLong]

I'm quite new to the operating system and I have a few queries.

I have sucessfully setup the system and configured it, however the Intranet sites facility has been giving me some grief.

When I enter Internet Explorer from the server it should give me the

http://companyweb

site, this appears sometimes and yet others this doesn't appear and displays the 404 error Page Cannot Be Displayed. If I leave the server and come back to it sometimes I get into the site and others I cannot. This seems to be an intermittent problem and has no pattern.

Also this server is not on a live system so no other clients are connected, but when I have connected a client I cannot access the Intranet site at all.

Can anyone advise?

Are there any network problems involved? Are you able to ping the site from a client? Have you looked at your DNS logs to find out if there is a problem there?

Do you use Exchange with SBS? Is OWA installed?

There doesn't appear to be any network issues and I think I have Outlook Web Access Installed because when I can get into the Intranet I can access Outlook there.

I think this problem is caused by having multiple web sites on the same server. You problaby have event viewer error messages on the server showing that you have a web site conflict.

Here a person with a similar problem:

To access the COMPANYWEB Site you have to give permissions to it. When you setup users through the Server Management you will use a default template that sets this up / Prompts for you.

Also when you get to the COMPANYWEB Site you can go into Site Settings and Manage Users as well as long as you have Administrative rights.
