I have SBS 2003 Premium with SP1 and Exchange 2003 SP2, SQL Server 2000
SP4 also running on it. The problem is that every 3-5 days the server
stops responding to client requests, CPU utiliz. is 100%, exchange cant
contact DC, network connectivity cannot be established from clients etc.
The server is also a domain controler, 15 users connecting to it etc.
Server must be restarted and again works fine for couple of days until
all is happening again.
Server worked fine untill SP2 for Exchange 2003 is installed. Because I
am managing the server remotely I cannot RDP to it when it enters this
state. I was once on site and loged to it localy and saw that LSASS
process is ocupying all CPU time and eventually drains memory. Server
continues to work (doesnt freeze) but services are not responding to
requests. I have reinstalled completely, installed clean copy,
reconfigured domain and all client machines, installed Exchange SP2
immidiatelly but still the same problem.
I am not sure but I think that it expiriences some kind of memory leak
in LSASS from unknown reason. I dont know should SP2 for server 2003
would solve the problem.

Well, since it's not SP2, what are you installing on the server that was
NOT included with SBS?
