Hi folks,
I have an SBS2003R2 premium server running ISA2004SP3 with predominantly XPSP2 workstations. I have a brandnew laptop with a clean install of Vista Business that I want to connect to the SBS domain.
I have read and performed all of the hotfixes and KBs in KB926505 but I still cannot connect to the domain.
I run
http://servername/connectcomputer and then get the certificate error (this is expected accordeing to the KB) I continue to the website and get the Network configuration window (so its resolving to the server\connectcomputer) If I click on 'connect to network now' I'm asked to run nshelp.exe so I click 'run' as instructed. I click continue at the user account control and get the error:
An error occured while trying to copy the client setup files. Check the following and try again:
If you use a public proxy server to browse the internet, clear the Internet Explorer connection setting for using a proxy server. To do this . . . ..
If you do not have a public proxy configured for the internet explorer, then your network administrator must reinstall the client deployment component on the server. To do this from add and remove programs run windows small business server setup in maintenance mode and then run client setup again.
I cleared the proxy server setting in IE (was configured after I installed the Vista ISA2004 FW client as part of the KB926505 changes) Still no joy. I have check the permissions in IIS for the connectcomputer and all seems OK (scripts only permission for folder)
Can anyone throw any light on this. I see the Mr Lee from MS has had a go but there is no conclusion despite many others stating they have the same problem.
Help ???? I can't spend too much more time on this and clients are chasing for Vista deployment on there SBS servers.
Cheers
Trev.
