Re: SP2.. brand new install

Hello Teneo,

Thank you for your reply.

I understand that the recent issue is Outlook cannot connect to Exchange.
After disabling RPC filter, the issue disappeared.

I think SP2 should not be the cause of this issue. It can be caused by
something else.

However, we need to look inside to determine the root cause.

If you could send me following files, I will appreciate it:

A. Please download the MPS Report tool from the following link and run it
on the SBS server, then send the generated CAB file to my mailbox
v-mzhuan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx for further investigation so that we can find what
the root cause is:

B. ISA log:

1. Open ISA 2004 management console.
2. Expand the server node and highlight ''Monitoring''.
3. In the right pane, switch to the ''Logging'' tab; make sure the ''Task
Pane'' is showed there.
4. In the ''Task Pane'', click ''Configure Firewall Logging'' under
''Logging Tasks'', and then switch the ''log storage format'' from ''MSDE
Database'' (default) to ''File''.
5. Switch to the ''Fields'' tab, and then click ''Select All''.
6. Click OK, and then click ''Apply'' to save changes and update the
configuration.
7. Repeat step 4 to step 6 on Web proxy Logging,
8. Repro the issue and compress and email to v-mzhuan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft ISA Server\ISALogs" folder.

Please try the above steps at your earliest convenience. If you have any
concern, please feel free to let me know.

Best regards,

| Hello Manfred, thank you for your contribution..
|
| I have all the links for SP2 issues on SBS... we have a 20 point
checklist
| when installing SP2... we still haven't finished installing it on all
| servers and this NEW server install issues have not given us much
| confidence. Issues are on the SBS Premium servers and its not consistent,
| some install fine some have certain errors and others have other errors.
|
| Comments made, trying to justify SP2 issues from other posters mention it
| could be original configuration and maybe an error was already sitting on
| the server and this SP2 just highlights it, of course they are just
| reiterating comments from Msoft KBs... Sorry but thats ' baloney ' this
is a
| complete new install and nothing was configured, after install we
installed
| SP2 immediately and then all windows updates.
|
| After uninstalling SP2 numerous times ( applying all mentioned 'fixes')
the
| recent issue was outlook not connecting to Exchange. Yes I did the
| EnableRSS=0 but then this KB is out of date as the registry key EnableRSS
| the registry entry was already in the registry, how this appeared,
previous
| install of SP2 or ISA SP3, I dont know... TThe KB mentioning about the
| EnableRSS=0 refers to ISA SP2, SP3 is out now so reading the KB do we
| install SP2 do the registry fix then install SP3.... sorry dont have time
to
| do all the fixing, testing.
|
| Any how, reading the blogs I found a poster referred to disable RPC in
ISA
| addins and bingo Outlook now working... now I have to investigate the
| implications of this on a working clients server !
