The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Remote office connectivity problem with SBS 2003

Asked by SusanPK in SBS Small Business Server

Tags: , ,

I suspect this is going to be simple, but simple seems to elude me for some reason. Here is the scenario:

Network 1 (office)  192.168.1.0 / 24
Brand new SBS 2003 server (192.168.1.120) with everything working so far as we can tell. Had some issues after Server 2003 SP2 but re-installing SBS SP1 apparently solved this. Server is a DNS, GC and WINS server. Another 2003 server (not SBS) (192.168.1.122) is configured as a backup to the domain. It is also a DNS, GC and WINS server. Second NIC in server has IP of 192.168.1.121 and router sends all external requests there. The second IP is not registered in DNS or WINS. All office workstations are working fine.

Network 2 (home)  192.168.2.0 / 24
Connected to network 1 via VPN maintained between 2 Linksys routers. 1 workstation, member of servers domain, with static IP configuration as follows:

        Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . : homepc
        Primary Dns Suffix  . . . . . . . : Domain.local
         Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Hybrid
         IP Routing Enabled. . . . . . . . : No
        WINS Proxy Enabled. . . . . . . . : No
        DNS Suffix Search List. . . . . . : Domain.local
                                             domain.local
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection 2:
        Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . : domain.local
        Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Marvell Yukon Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000Base-T Adapter, Copper RJ-45
         Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        Dhcp Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : No
         IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.2.10
         Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
         Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.2.1
         DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.120
                                             <ISP DNS1>
                                             <ISP DNS2>    
        Primary WINS Server . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.120
         Secondary WINS Server . . . . . . : 192.168.1.122

Issues with home PC at remote location:
-      Takes very, very long time to log in
-      Event ID 1054 is logged Windows cannot obtain the domain controller name for your computer network. (An unexpected network error occurred. ). Group Policy processing aborted.
-      When trying to run netdiag to troubleshoot, the error is The procedure entry point DnsGetPrimaryDomainName_UTF8 could not be located in the dynamic link library DNSAPI.dll.
-      PC canNOT: display http://companyweb (cannot display error), use Outlook to connect to Exchange, use POP to connect to Exchange
-      PC CAN: ping server, telnet to server, browse network, map drives via IP address and NETbios name (although slow), use OWA (but using the public URL is MUCH faster than the internal server name)

Permissions on the companyweb site have been set to allow all IP addresses of both subnets to connect.
