Bonjour à tous,

j'ai un petit souci sur un serveur Exchange 2010 hébergé dans un SBS 2011. Depuis quelques jours/semaines il envoie des SPAMS depuis des adresses extérieures au domaine. A tel point que l'IP publique a été en blacklist.

Visiblement il n'est pas en Open Relay mais dans la file d'attente d'exchange je vois bien que des mails SPAMS essayent de partir en destination d'utilisateurs du domaine local.

Avez-vous une idée de où cela peut-il bien provenir et comment m'en prémunir?

Pour info, j'ai déjà testé d'éteindre tous les ordis du réseau en ne laissant que le serveur tourner et toujours pareil. J'ai également scanné le serveur avec Hijackthis, Glary utilities, spybot, Mbam et adwcleaner. J'avais quelques cochonneries mais le problème persiste toujours.

Merci d'avance.

Hi

For every 5 min. I get this error. The server is SBS2011. Any suggestion?

I have 1 machine that was affected by this issue.  I followed the steps in:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4049094/windows-devices-may-fail-to-boot-after-installing-october-10-version-o

and am uninstalling the packages (step 10).  Once I connect to the internet, what's to stop the machine from getting those same patches again?

It's on a workgroup and we're using solarwinds RMM tool to push patches.  I don't see the delta patches in the RMM tool. So it got the patches some other way?  this machine is in a workgroup of 4 machines so there's no WSUS server on the network.

thanks!

On a simple office desktop - not worried about high quality graphics / redraw refresh, etc...

The new dell optiplex 3050 has DisplayPort & HDMI connectors.

The monitor has VGA (the 15 pin 3 row blue connector) and DVI (the white connector).

Thoughts on which connector to use at each end?  I would think either at each end is fine for typing word docs, speadsheets,  the occassional funny video on youtube.

I guess it comes down to the ease / cost of the cable to convert from 1 end (DisplayPort or HDMI) to (VGA or DVI).

Thoughts?

Hi,

I have a small network with about 40 machines on and recently had a second internet connection added to the network for a certain set of users. These users have static IP addresses so I changed their default gateway from 254 (existing internet gateway ip) to .253 (new faster connection). Although this is working for the most part, the machines seem to have some issues access shares on the network and Ive had to resort to using local accounts of the network resources rather than the domain accounts since I get errors indicating there is no domain controller on the network to service the access request. When I change the gateway back to the previous setting, things start working again.

The DC is an SBS2011 box and its on 192.168.16.2 whilst the internet routers on .253 and .254 respectively. The clients are a mixture of Win 7/10.

Why would changing the gateway address have this effect and how can I get around it?

I don't know much of macs. I have 1 user on an SBS 2011 standard domain running a mac. he uses macmail. Things have been going fine for years now. In the last week or 2 he noticed that when he sends an email from the macmail (in rich text format) then someone on a windows PC (anyone else in the office) running outlook, replies, the font gets really small.

Any ideas?  I don't know all the details yet of if other windows users are cc'd, do they see the small font or is it just the mac.

what other questions come to mind?

Helping a friend a couple hours away add encryption to their wireless network using an apple airport as the wifi source.

They have some wireless cameras (and some wired... I am hoping these are the same model cameras both with wifi and RJ45?)

using the foscam camera's web interface, I set the wireless encryption key on each of the wireless cameras - a 7 character password that they accepted.

Then tried adding the encryption key in his airport. But it wanted at least 8 characters.  We changed the password to one that has 8 characters but are now unable to access those wireless cameras.

Any ideas on how to get into the web admin / set them to the new 8 character wifi password?  And again, they are 2 hours away and not tech savvy. I really don't want to have to drive out there.

I’m thinking get him a 100' cat 5 cable and he'd run it from the airport to each camera’s RJ45 port then they’d get on the network, maybe with a different IP address and I can remotely get into the web interface and change the wifi password??

Or because they are set up for wireless now, they ignore activity on the RJ45?

Other ideas?

THANKS!

We have 9 workstations and 18 users logging into the domain. Each station has a software that is user specific. Every time a new user logs into the any one of the workstations we have to manually add a connection string. That connection string is located in the registry file. There are two keys that need to be added to the registry every time a new user logs in.

I need to write a script to add 2 keys to the registry. Fist I need to check if the keys exist in the registry, if the keys exist than ignore, if the keys don't exist than add. All of the users use the default logon script. I am not to keen on login scripts, so any detailed help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks to all in advance.

We have recently taken over a clinic. They have their own Windows SBS server that handles DNS, DHCP, AD, etc. They have other servers that they need to continue to access. Temporary I've added a firewall and established an OpenVPN connection with our data center. The users have been given domain accounts for our network. Now my boss wants to add their computers to our domain.  The goal is to for the computers to have access to both networks and users login with their new domain credentials. My initial idea was for computers to keep the local DHCP address and change the DNS to point to our servers. I also configured a NAT for each computer (10) on the tunnel. I can add the computers to the domain but it takes users 10 minutes to login. How do I get around this without adding an additional NIC?

Hello Everyone
I have an SBS2011 box which has performance issues due to SQLSERVR.EXE.  If I kill the process hard drive activity is close to 0%.
Current view from task manager.

I have adjusted the memory usage in SQLServMngt, reset, deleted, installed, uninstalled and a bunch of other things.  I was able to recover hard disk space, lowered CPU and Memory usage.  If it were not for this one issue the server would be working great.

The service mssql$microsoft##ssee service high disk usage
SQLserver.exe High Disk as shown in the image
susdb.mdf high disk usage
tempdb.mdf high disk usage

If I stop the SBSMONITORING service DISK USAGE the server goes normal.

Below are some the resources I have used to attempt to resolve issue.

I have  a several year old WD my book Live that is having problems - I can't connect to it  (it's a nas / ethernet device)

It's out of warranty. I took it apart and ran crystal disk info on the hard drive. it's failing / got smart errors.

It seems I can't just put in a new hard drive, huh?  The unit's OS is on the hard drive, right?

So with a failed hard drive, is there any relatively simple way to get it going again with a new hard drive?
