Symptoms:
============
When you click on the Monitoring and Reporting or Backup snap-in, you
receive the
following error:
The page cannot be found
HTTP 400 - Bad Request

If "Show friendly HTTP error messages" is uncheck in IE, the error become:
Bad Request (Invalid Hostname)

Cause:
============
SBS2003 Premium: 127.0.0.1 (loopback) is missing from the Default Web Site.
SBS2003 Standard: A host header is assinged to All Unassigned (Default)

Resolution
============
SBS2003 Premium:
<Typically ISA is installed and thus Default Website is bounded to the
internal IP
only.>
Go to IIS, Default Web Site, Web Site tab, Advanced. Server should have the
internal IP on port 80 and 127.0.0.1 on port 80. If the loopback is
missing, click
Add, and type 127.0.0.1 for the IP, 80 for the port, and do NOT assign any
host
header to 127.0.0.1.

SBS2003 Standard:
<ISA is not installed and thus Default Website is bounded to All
Unassigned.>
Go to IIS, Default Web Site, Web Site tab, Advanced. Verify the IP address
Default
does not have a host header. Removed any host header assiged to Default.
If you have to assign a host header to the default website, please add
127.0.0.1
with port 80 and NO host header to the default website.

NOTE: Monitoring and Reporting, and Backup snapin in Server Management
communicate
with the IIS Default Website using 127.0.0.1. Make sure 127.0.0.1 port 80
is
availalbe and no host header is assigned to 127.0.0.1.
