RE: connect computer problem

Hi Steve,

If you're using IP address, the ConnectComputer Wizard won't work. This is
a known issue.

You receive an error message when you try to join your computer to a
Windows Small Business Server 2003 domain
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/838431/en-us

Please post the ipconfig /all result on both your server and a client
computer here. For more info about SBS Connection settings, please see:

How to configure Internet access in Windows Small Business Server 2003
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/825763/en-us

There're some other KB articles for your reference;

"The following user settings are private" error message when you try to
migrate a user's profile to Windows Small Business Server 2003
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/886210/en-us

A static IP address may not be assigned to a new server that has uppercase
characters in its name in Windows Small Business Server 2003
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/889029/en-us

"The list of users and computers could not be found" error message during
client network configuration in Windows Small Business Server 2003
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/837369/en-us

In addition, please let me know:

1. You said "when i type in the server/connectcomputer it dosent work".
What's the symptom?
2. Is there any error message?

Thanks for your time and we look forward to your update.

Sincerely,

Bill Peng
