Windows 7/SBS 2003 network complicated by Verizon router problem

I posted here ( http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-networking/windows-7-suddenly-wont-talk-to-sbs-2003-server/e8116774-6b4f-44d3-91cf-b10df236805a?tm=1405553282721 ) and at TechNet ( http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/1f8b8cbc-4b9d-4f68-981c-4c71e7a3f24a/windows-7-suddenly-wont-talk-to-sbs-2003-server-and-viceversa-possibly-dns-but-not-definite?forum=w7itpronetworking ) a problem that I was having with our Windows 7 computers suddenly losing connectivity to our SBS 2003 server. Someone posted a response (reboot our router), which worked, but only on a temporary basis. After turning off the router and turning on, we return connectivity for about 3 days, then we lose it once again, and you need to restart the router again.

I called Verizon and technology, I talked to allegations according to which the problem is that the SBS 2003 server do not have the server DNS and DHCP for the network - router Verizon should be. He claims that the fact that we have the Distribution of disabled on their router IP addresses means that the router never properly know where each address is assigned. The fact that it all worked until a week or two ago and it's only Windows 7 affected machines, it doesn't have an answer for.

His suggestions were A) disable DNS and DHCP on the SBS 2003 server and have both run through the router from Verizon, or B) assign static IP addresses to each machine. Recently what I know (I inherited this system from someone who left little or nothing in the way of technical notes) must be running on the SBS 2003 server since it is a DNS and DHCP domain controller. (B) seems possible, too long I note the static addresses on the server and the router.

This, however, does not really address the underlying problem. Somehow, I think there should be another, more easy way to do this job. All the more that, as I said, these Windows 7 machines are simply turn for about a year and only in the last week or two has started having this problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Server crashes every few minutes - HP ML350 G4 running SBS 2003

    Dear all,

    We have a SBS 2003 server that has serious problems for a few weeks now. The problem is that the server hangs for a short period of time and comes back to life. Freeze happens several times per hour and lasts 50-60 seconds each time and then come back to life. During the freeze:

    • Users get the contextual ScreenTip in Outlook by saying that Exchange is trying to retrieve data.
    • Shared disks cannot be opened.
    • Data from the server recovery software also seem to be block/gel.
    • Desktop connection to the server remotely continues but cannot perform all actions (the mouse pointer moves but can't choose anything).
    • During the freeze period, the following events are generated in the system log:
    • Through logs event ID: 7011 always seems to be recorded at the time the freeze occurs. It is said, ' Timeout (60000 milliseconds) waiting for a response from the NtFrs service transaction'.
    • Also in the application log this error is found: event ID 17052 Source: MSSQLSERVER - Scheduler 0 (and other times 1) seems to be suspended. SPID 0, ECID 0, UMS 0x03640BC8 context

    • When the server is started, it takes 40 minutes on "computer application settings.
    • When the server is restarted or shutdown, it takes about 15-20 minutes.

    • The Task Manager shows the system idle process using 99% cpu.

    A bit on the server:

    OS: Windows SBS 2003 Premium Edition - SP2 with Exchange 2003 SP2, SQL 2000, SharePoint Services 2.0
    Hardware: HP ProLiant ML350 G4
    Smart Array 641 controller
    6 x 146.8 GB HARD drive (10K rpm), configured in 3 logical drives
    RAID 1 + 0 is used
    x 1 Intel Xeon 3.0 GHz processor
    4 GB of RAM installed - SBS 32-bit use only 3.5 GB

    Antivirus: CA Threat Manager

    Backup: Tape using software of Yosemite

    Diagnostics of hardware (using the diag HP tools) are no problem. Green LEDs appear on all hard drives 6. I have already updated all the device drivers and system firmware using the HP tools. HP Array Configuration Utility shows no problem at all. I've taken this with HP support, but eventually they said there is no hardware problems and I need to contact Microsoft.

    Help, please!

    Hello

    I calculated that it started happening since I followed the CA Tech suggestion on how to fix the CA anti-virus on the server to allow users to save documents directly to readers shared network. Fix of CA has its side effects. Over a period of 2 months, there are more than half a million 4 KB files generated in the folder Temp of Windows. Now temp was so complete in terms of number of files that whenever server had to do anything at the time it would freeze. Windows wouldn't let me empty the temp folder. It does not yet show the files. Only, we could see and calculate the files in DOS mode. UBCD4Win served and slip streamed with Windows XP Setup program to create a bootable file. After starting the server on the boot media, all Temp files have been removed from command line. It took more than an hour only to delete all these files. After emptying the temp started server within 10-15 minutes.

    Then, the next step was to find the program that has been the creation of 6 temporary files every minute. Explore processes and Process Monitor was used to identify the culprit. Is CA Host - based Intrusion Prevention Manager that was purchased as part of the package of threat Manager CA eTrust. It was found by using an instance of Java under a Wrapper process and the creation of hss_tmp * in C:\Windows\Temp .dat files. Disabling services CA HIPS resolved again filling of the temp. There is no problem of gel and server works very well.

    Deactivation of all the CA package has not prevented the freeze occurs because the temp folder too cultivated was still in place and SBS OS was always access them as well stop on time.

    I hope this can help someone in the future.

  • SBS 2003 Win Update error 80072EFE

    When you search for new updates on a SBS 2003 server, I get an error 0x80072EFE code.  I saw several other posts about this error code, but none of their solutions helped.  So far, that's what I tried:

    1. Search for Rootkits, found nothing.
    2. Temporarily disabled Antivirus program.
    3. There is no proxy running on the server or the network.
    4. Renamed all of the subfolders of Windows\SoftwareDistribution\ (I'm not a big fan of deletion if I have to).
    5. Renamed Windows\Catroot2\.
    6. Make sure automatic updates, Intelligent Transfer background and Cryptographic Services are running.
    7. Make sure the date and time are correct.

    I'm really running out of ideas and this particular server is behind on updates.  I welcome and appreciate any suggestions you may have.  Thanks in advance...

  • Windows XP and Vista network

    I have two computers on the same workgroup "HOME", connected to a Verizon router via a connection to the local network, so they should now be able to see each other, right? But how is it my desktop Windows XP SP3 can network with my laptop Windows XP SP2 (now corrupt), but not with a laptop Vista Business SP2? The Vista can "detect" the XP and all shared on this topic, but does not know what to do with it in the network map. However, even after installing the LLTD thing on my XP desktop (which failed, because it is SP3 and didn't need it), it does not even detect the Vista. What should I do?

    Here are the steps of general network troubleshooting. Just cannot apply to your situation, so just take the bits that are. It may seem daunting, but if you follow the steps in the links and suggestions below calmly and consistently, you will have no difficulty to implement your sharing.

    Excellent, comprehensive, but easy to understand article on sharing files/printer under Vista. Contains information about sharing printers and files, and the folders:

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727037.aspx

    For XP, start by running the Network Setup Wizard the on all machines (see warning in section A below).

    Problems sharing files between computers on a network are usually caused by 1) a misconfigured firewall or a firewall neglected (including a dynamic firewall in a virtual private network); or (2) inadvertently run two firewalls such as the firewall of Windows and a third-party firewall. and/or (3) do not have accounts to the same users and passwords on all computers in the workgroup. (4) tries to create actions where the operating system does not.

    A. configure the firewall on all machines to allow traffic to local area network (LAN) as being approved. With the Windows Firewall, it means which allows file sharing / print on the Exceptions tab normally run the XP Network Setup Wizard will take care of this for these machines. The only "witch hunt", it will turn on the Windows Firewall. If you are not running a third-party firewall or you have an antivirus/security with its own firewall component program, then you're fine.  With a third-party firewall, I usually set up the allocation of LAN with an IP address range. E.g. would be 192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1.254. Obviously you would substitute your correct subnet. Refer to the safety of any third party program or the user forums for how to correctly configure its firewall. Do not run more than one firewall. DON'T STOP FIREWALLS; CONFIGURE THEM CORRECTLY.

    (B) to facilitate the Organization, put all computers in the same workgroup. This is done from the System applet in Control Panel, the computer name tab.

    (C) in Vista, turn on password protected sharing. Create accounts of users and corresponding passwords on all machines. You do not need to be logged into the same account on all machines and assigned to each user account passwords can be different; accounts/passwords just need to exist and to match on all machines. DO NOT NEGLECT TO CREATE PASSWORDS, EVEN IF ONLY OF SIMPLE. If you want a machine to boot directly to the desktop (a particular user account) for convenience, you can do this:

    XP - set up Windows to automatically connect (MVP Ramesh) - http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Autologon.htm

    Vista - Start ORB > Search > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

    D. Si one or more of the computers is XP Pro or Media Center, turn off Simple file sharing (Folder Options > view tab).

    E. create share as you wish. XP Home does not share the users directory or the Program Files, but you can share folders inside those directories. A better choice is to simply use the Shared Documents folder. See the first link above for more information on Vista sharing.

    F. you have the job of file sharing (and tested by exchanging a file between machines), if you want to share a printer connected locally to one of your computers, share of this machine. Then go to the printer mftr Web site. and download the latest drivers for the correct system. Install them on the target machines. The printer must be collected during the installation procedure. If this isn't the case, install the drivers and then use the Add Printer Wizard. In some cases, printers must be installed as local printers, but it is outside this response. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  • Windows Server 2008 R2, with two Windows Storage Server 2003 Standard: How can I add the MAC authentication on top of Active Directory authentication for a storage servers?

    I have two running Windows Storage Server 2003 storage servers in a domain R2 Windows Server 2008 Standard.  On top of the Active Directory authentication, I want to add authentication of MAC address for the access to one of the storage servers.  In this scenario, an authenticated user is unable to log on to the target storage server unless the user is also on one of the computers MAC address accepted.  All domain users will have access to other folders and files as configuration storage server in Active Directory.  I already have a user access to installation by the permissions for folders on the storage server target, but I still want to restrict access to specific computers as well.  For what it's worth the server hardware is HP Proliant DL360 G5 for the Standard Server 2008 R2 and server HP Proliant DL185 G5 for two Storage Server 2003 computers.  I don't want to have MAC address authentication as the main means of access control to the network, only for the storage server a as an addition to control Active Directory.
