    MyDocs Folder Redirect doesn't seem to work?

    That's ridiculous. You just run the wizard again to turn it off. Of course, if you don't clear out the Client Side Cache you could run into synch issues. See http://sbsurl.com/csc for details on how to do that. Jeffrey B. Kane [MVP - Small Business Server] TechSoEasy...

    MyDocs Folder Redirect doesn't seem to work?

    You missed the fact that on an SBS you don't need to configure all of this manually. As long as you add users using the Add User Wizard (from the SBS Server Management Console), and then run the "Configure My Documents Folder Redirection" wizard, it will be fully configured with nothing more to...

    Xactimate 25 install on SBS 2003 R2 Premium

    I have no problems with the Server Version, I don't really use the workstation one. But you can download a fully functional trial version to test it out. I have used the Universal Restore feature and it works just fine... as long as you prepare the boot disk before attempting any migration (or...

    Xactimate 25 install on SBS 2003 R2 Premium

    For those amount of users it sounds fine. You may want to add the extra 2GB of RAM to the server, especially since RAM is so cheap these days. Just be sure to fully back up the server before installing it. The best way to do that would be to use an imaging backup such as Acronis True Image...

    Xactimate 25 install on SBS 2003 R2 Premium

    I don't have any direct experience with Xactimate, but plenty with SBS, and after looking at the Xactware site I don't see why they wouldn't be compatible. You can easily test it though by doing a test installation, and if you haven't set up an SBS before, you really need to do that a few times...

    Move users/computers to mybusiness ou?

    Martin... ALWAYS use the wizards with SBS. To be honest, the vast majority of my work these days is to fix SBS installations that were done by very experienced MCSE's who ignored the wizards. They're the same ones who shout that all of these services and components shouldn't be on the same...

    Not all users folders redirected to server

    Make sure that those user's AD Accounts are in the default OU of MyBusiness\Users\SBSUsers. Then, run the Change User Permissions Wizard to reapply the appropriate template to their accounts. If you are still having problems, look in the Event Log on the Workstations they are using for...

    Move users/computers to mybusiness ou?

    Why aren't you using Exchange Server? It's really the heart of the SBS. Without it, you have miss out on these benefits: Automatic Deleted Message Retention and Retrieval Single-instance storage for messages addressed to multiple recipients -- meaning if an attachment is sent to multiple...

    Move users/computers to mybusiness ou?

    Unfortunately, KB884453 is not the method to migrate your Server 2000 to SBS 2003. Instead you really should have followed the instructions detailed in http://sbsurl.com/migrate. Had you done that, the user and computer accounts would be in the correct OU. Yes, it's important that they are in...

    Forwarding Emails

    Forwarding to an external email address is completely different. But if you are using Small Business Server, and if the home user has Outlook 2003 (not Express), then you can have him use RPC over HTTPS (Outlook Anywhere) to access his Exchange Mailbox. Forwarding them to his home email would...

    SBS or Windows 2003 Server? (I also posted this in forum931)

    If you're going to post the same question then it wouldn't make sense for me to reply in this thread. I'll watch for the separate one. Jeffrey B. Kane [MVP - Small Business Server] TechSoEasy http://www.techsoeasy.com Blog: http://techsoeasy.spaces.live.com

    Cannot run Internet Connection Wizard on SBS2003 server

    Sounds like you really have some underlying problems with this server. If most of the web services are missing in the CEICW, then my first suggestion would be to reinstall the Networking Components. You do this by Opening Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs and scrolling down to Windows Small...

    Event Log Source List

    If you are using Small Business Server 2003, then that is done by running the Configure Monitoring Wizard and entering your email address on the "ALERTS" screen. Jeffrey B. Kane [MVP - Small Business Server] TechSoEasy http://www.techsoeasy.com Blog: http://techsoeasy.spaces.live.com
