RE: Fax monitor incoming + outgoing calls?

Hi Jonathan,

Thanks for your update. I appreciate your time.

I. You are right. I am sorry for missing some sentences in the previous
post. The steps as follows:

The detail steps to install share fax client as follows:

1). Start server management console, locate Client Computers node, click
Set Up Client Applications link to start Set Up Client Applications Wizard.
2). In Available Applications page ensure the Shared fax client is listed
and then follow the steps to deploy the application.
3). When users logon to domain from client computers next time, these
client applications will be launched to install.

II. Yes, you can remove the Outlook from Add/Remove Programs. And also you
can use Windows Installer Cleanup Utility to remove Outlook totally.

1. Download and install the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility.

Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/

2. After you install the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility, click Start
menu-> All
Programs-> Windows Install Clean Up.

3. Highlight Microsoft Outlook 2003 entry in the list and then click
Remove. Quit the Utility.

Note: If you need not use the whole Office 2003, you can remove them all.

III. To the folder redirection GPO issue:

From the GPO image, that indicates that there is no any application data
redirection policy configured here. The issue may occur due to that you
changed the folder name. You can convert the folder name to the original
name to see it the GPO settings back. However I can not guarantee the
process successfully since I do not know how and when the GPO setting is
removed.

And also please ensure the permissions of the folder that used to place
each user folder configured properly. Please check as follows:

1. NTFS permissions:

Domain Admin: Full Control

Domain Users: Special - Apply onto "This folder and files" -
Allow: Traverse Folder/Execute Files, List Folder/Read Data, Read
Attributes, Read Extended Attributes, Create Folders/Append Data, Read
Permissions

System: Full Control

SBS Folder Operators: Full Control

2. Sharing permissions:

Domain Admins, Domain Users, SBS Folder Operators: Full Control

If the GPO setting does not back, you have to re-configure it.

I appreciate your time and efforts. Please let me know if there is any
update to the problem in your end. I am glad to help.

Have a nice day!

Dear Jenny

Your detailed advice is very much appreciated.
I would like to do this process on a weekend or during a period that I will
have some more time.
Was there something missing after the following sentence?

will be setup automatically. You can not setup share fax in client side.
The detail steps to install share fax client:

Regarding Outlook, I never use it on the Server, but I will REMOVE!!
Can I do this by simply using Add/Remove Programmes? or do I need to do
anything further?

As an extra issue which may be of relevance?, if I may ask?
I found some strange issues on my GPO, where I made some changes early on
in the installaltion od SBS, to folder redirection.
But later on when I wanted to reverse some of these changes I cannot get
access to any of these user options under Folder redirection.
These GPO items are just missing!!
I removed altogether the actual policy group I had created.
I tried using regsvr to reregister these items, but it did not help??
Is there anything on the Server Information system, that helps to solve
this issue?? I have attached a screen shot to show the problem!!

My feeling is that it has something to do with the fact that I changed the
"User" folder at one stage to a different name, and I then reverted it back
to the standard user folder name??
I am using roaming profiles and they are all working fine for at least 8
months now since I noticed this issue.

Any Advice??


With thanks

Jonathan

Hi Jonathan,

Thanks for your time to perform tests and collect information.

I. Based on my research, the issue may occur due to some file is corrupt
in
Windows fax service. I would like to suggest that we reinstall the whole
SBS 2003 shared fax to resolve the issue. The detail steps:

A. Rename the keys and files below to *.old

1) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Fax
2) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Fax
3) C:\Program Files\Microsoft Windows Small Business Server\fax
4) The ''SBSMIS-FAX.log'' file under ''C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Integration\Windows Small Business Server 2003\Logs''.
5) The ''SBSMSI-faxcfg.log'' file under ''C:\Program
Files\Microsoft Integration\Windows Small Business Server 2003\Logs''.
6) The ''faxsetup.log'' file under ''C:\WINDOWS\''.

B. Delete the following registry keys:

HKLM/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Telephony/Country List
HKLM/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Telephony/Locations
registry
Keys

C. Access Add/Remove Programs, Add/Remove Windows Components,
uncheck ''Fax Services'' to uninstall it.

D. Once it is uninstalled, access Add/Remove Programs to
reinstall it.

E. Then, access ''Add/Remove Programs again'', this time, we
will click ''Change/Remove'' on the ''Windows Small Business Server 2003''
item:

1) Click ''Next'' on the ''Microsoft Windows Small Business Server
Setup'' page.
2) Click ''Next'' on the ''Windows Configuration'' page.

Note: It states that ''This will take approximately 30 minutes'', it is
referring to the total time it will take in the first SBS component
installation. For the task such as remove a specific component, it will
just take couple of minutes.
3) Now, in the ''Component Selection'' page, choose ''Remove''
before the ''Fax Services'' item.
4) Click ''Next'', and then click ''Next'' again to confirm
''Component Summary''. You will be prompted to insert the SBS 2K3 setup
Disc 1.

G. Once the removal process is completed, access ''Windows Small Business
Server setup'' again in ''Add/Remove Programs'', proceed to the
''Component
Selection'' page, and then choose ''Install'' for the ''Fax Services''
item
to reinstall fax service.

And then we should push the shared fax client application from server to
client workstations by Deploy Client Application. When users logon
workstations again, the Shared Fax Client application will be setup
automatically. You can not setup share fax in client side. The detail
steps
to install share fax client:

Then please test the issue again to check if every thing is ok now.

II. From the server system information, the Office 2003 including the
Outlook 2003 installed on the SBS server box. We do not support the
coexistence of Outlook and Exchange on the same computer in a production
environment. Because versions of these two products produce a conflict of
the MAPI subsystem. The Detail information is addressed in the following
article.

Microsoft does not support installing Exchange Server components and
Outlook on the same computer
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;266418

Please remove the outlook from the SBS server first.

Note: since the SBS 2003 is a production server, it is not recommended
that
installing application such as Office on it.

I appreciate your time!

Have a nice day!

Hi Jonathan,

Thanks for using the SBS newsgroup!

From your description, I understand that you want to configure SBS Fax to
monitor both incoming fax activity and outbound fax activity. If I am off
base, please don't hesitate to let me know.

Please check if the outbound activity logging is enabled in fax console.
To
do so:

1. Open Server Management console -> Fax (Local), right click it to
choose
Properties to open Properties page.

2. Under Activity Logging tab, please ensure both the option "Log
incoming
fax activity" and the option "Log outgoing fax activity" are checked.

3. Run command "services.msc" (no quotation marks) to open the services
console, please restart the Fax service.

Then please try to send some faxes to see if the outbound fax activity is
logging.

If the issue persists, please help me collect the following information
for
analyze:

1. What is the SBS fax monitor locates you referred to? Please capture a
screen shot of it and send to me for analyze.

2. Please run command "msinfo32" (no quotation marks) on the SBS server
box
to launch System Information console. And click File and then Save. Save
the system information to a .nfo file to send to me. My working mailbox:

Have a nice day!

Please advise if there are any specific settings or selection that
enables / disables the detail showing on the SBS Fax monitor.
Previously it seemed my monitor showed both incoming and outgoing fax
activity.
But now only shows Incoming calls.

I think it has something to do with the fax settings on my Brooktrout
modem, in that Line 1 is incoming only and line 2 is outgoing.
I assume the monitor is not "linked" to lien 2.

Please advise.

Thank you

Jonathan
