Thanks Wazzup...

Hi, I am trying to use the POP3 Connector facility within SBS2003 but am having problems sending outgoing mail. We have been using a standard Outlook Express POP3 connection for emails but now want to upgrade to use the POP3 Connector facility with our ISP. I seem to have configured incoming...

Thanks guys... I've checked the share permissions through the Manage Shared Folders console and indeed permissions were set to read-only. Now that I've changed them, all's ok. A quick question though (from porkchopexpress's reply); what's the difference between the share permissions and NTFS...

Hi, I have a very simple query and hope someone can help. I have just set up a new server (SBS2003) and copied all the old Word, Excel documents etc. to the new server. I have set the new drive as shared and mapped client's PC's to the relevant shared folder. All files are available to the...

Hi Guys, I've inherited a SBS2003 server that currently allows users to connect to their email via individual configuration of POP3 accounts in each copy of Outlook. I would like to migrate this so that I can incorporate the POP3 Connector facility within SBS2003. Although it looked really...

Hi, I hope this is a very simple query but it's doing my head in! I've just set up a new LAN with SBS2003 with ten new users. I have set up a shared folder for all their documents and all users can access the files (Word & Excel documents) within this shared folder. The problem that has now...

I've tried connecting using UNC name but still no joy(presumably you mean something like \\servername\data_files from a web browser?) All the users have full access to all the network servers so I'm a little confused! Thanks again for your help, guys...

Hi Guys, Many thanks for all the feedback. The client laptop is running XP-Pro and yes, this is the first time we have attempted to attach to anything other than our exchange server. We can ping both by IP address and server name so assume the host file is fine. Do you think it's something to...

Hi, I am having problems with a couple of users connecting remotely to our data servers to access their normal Word, Excel files. The connection works fine for the users to access our exchange server and pick up emails but not for data files (which are stored on a separate server). The...

Hi, I am about to install a new firewall for a client of mine but am just a-little unsure as to how the firewall fits in with the existing router. The client currently has internet/email access from their LAN via a router but, at the moment, no firewall protection. The router has an IP address...

Hi, I have recently set up a new network running MS Windows SBS 2003 and now need to add some slightly old hardware, namely an HP 5si, as a networked printer. Unfortunately the original drivers do not support SBS 2003 and I don't seem to be able to find the relevant drivers anywhere, even on...

Hi, Our company currently has a dedicated webserver providing data and information to specified Clients via the web. One of our clients would like to limit which users, from their intranet, can view and access this information on our webserver. What I am not sure about is whether this is a...

No, I haven't thought of that... Many thanks, I'll see if that clears the problem.

Hi, I have just installed a new SBS network with approximately fifteen users and everything has gone perfectly until I tried to set user permissions/access rights to particular shared folders. All the users I added to the system before I created shared folders have the relevant access rights...
