Hello SJ,
Thank you for posting in the SBS newsgroup.
According to your description, I understand that clients are losing
connection to the SBS 2003 SP1 Server. If I have misunderstood the problem,
please don't hesitate to let me know.
To narrow down this issue, please kindly answer and perform the following
questions and steps:
1. Does this issue occurs with all clients or certain clients?
2. Please refer to the following KB article to troubleshoot network
connectivity problems:
How to troubleshoot network connectivity problems
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=325487
3. Please also refer to the following information to re-run the CEICW to
configure proper Internet connection:
825763 How to configure Internet access in Windows Small Business Server
2003
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=825763
4. Meanwhile, you may try the following steps on the client workstation
and see how it goes:
a. Log on locally as a local administrator to the client. In Control Panel,
double-click System. On the Computer Name tab, click Change, select
Workgroup, type a workgroup name and click OK. Click OK when prompted to
restart the computer.
b. On the SBS server, delete the user and computer accounts, click Add a
User in Server Management\Users. Follow the instructions to create user and
computer accounts.
c. On the client, open IE, go to http://SBSServerName/connectcomputer and
follow the instructions to join domain.
I appreciate your time and cooperation. If anything is unclear, please feel
free to let me know. I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
Nathan Liu (MSFT)
