Have guys tried adding the server name as a trusted site in IE and then
using the server name in accessing the "connect Computer" wizard?. Also
running "repair" on the PC's network interface sometimes helps.

BarryT -
Wanted to thank you for reading the forum. As of this date 2-9-2007,
Microsoft has failed to come up with ANY answer except the usual garbage
about checking you IP settings. I was forced on the one machine, like Tim
Sullivan here in this forum, to wipe the machine completely out and
reinstall
Windows XP, then the Small Business Server Networking Wizard worked just
fine. I still have one 4 month old Dell that is having the same problem
that
as a last resort, I want to wipe out the machine and perform a restore. I
created a new posting "The SBS 2003 Network Configuration Wizard InOp" in
this same forum to see if anyone else would have the answer and as of
today,
2-9-2007, Microsoft has failed to resolve the solution. I turned of
everything in the background on the two machines that the Small Business
Server Networking Wizard would not run on and nothing helped. It is
something
in the OS that is hosed. My concern is if on that Dell, I wipe it out and
perform a restore using the Dell restore image, what if the image has the
same problem, then I have a machine that I wiped out, still can not run
the
Small Business Server Networking Wizard successfully and then what?

Hi,
Have you resolved this problem? I'm having exactly the same problem on 2
computers. I notice you mention McAfee, we have McAfee on these two
computers
but not on others which work OK.
I have even removed it from one, but that made no difference, however I
guess it may have something embedded which was not removed.

Thanks for responding. See the problem is I am not getting the flipping
ActivX garbage to install on either of these two machines. There is NO
"_sbs_netsetup_ account" because the "Small Business Server Networking
Wizard was not installed". You NEVER get to the point of loggin onto
the SBS
server due to the freaking "Small Business Server Networking Wizard was
not
installed".

As you can see, all the local machines on this network point to the SBS
server for IP addresses.
The problem is getting the freaking "The Small Business Server
Networking
Wizard" to get installed into freaking IE.
This is getting freaking ridiculous because everyone keeps saying to
check
your IP settings. There is nothing wrong with the IP settings or 25 of
27
workstations would not have joined the SBS 2003 domain. It is these two
freaking workstations that Internet Explorer will not allow the "The
Small
Business Server Networking Wizard" to get installed with. It is like
the
script will not run.
And YES, I went into IE and set all the security to the lowest, I even
turned on everything that would allow AcitvX and scripts to run, turned
of
Windows Firewall, disabled McAfee antivirus, still the freaking and all
I get
in IE is "The Small Business Server Networking Wizard was not
installed. You
may not be a member of the local Administrators security group on this
computer or your Local Intranet security settings may be set to High.
Click
Connect to the network now to try again and click Yes when prompted. If
the
wizard fails to install, contact the person responsible for your
network."
ALL of the user accounts belong to the ADMINISTRATORS group. I have
even
logged on AS administrator, and I get the following in IE again "The
Small
Business Server Networking Wizard was not installed. You may not be a
member
of the local Administrators security group on this computer or your
Local
Intranet security settings may be set to High. Click Connect to the
network
now to try again and click Yes when prompted. If the wizard fails to
install,
contact the person responsible for your network".
I am ready to blow these machines away.
Does someone have any advise....or a gun.

Without talking to you directly it's still a little hard to figure
out whats
going on. So I'll take you throught the obvious.
On the clients: Delete the _sbs_netsetup_ account. Make sure you're
log in
on the client e/admin priv. Reboot. Then, USE IE. On the account info
to join
USE your SBS Admin Account. Let me know if this works.
