Hi Chris,
I have spent 3 days amd the weekend on this to no avail.
Yep I run all of the KBs both on the server and on the Vista PC and checked
same many times. I have also unbound the IPv6 protocols from all NICs and
also those tunnel adaptors. Also uninstalled the Link-Layer protocols and
disbled the wireless NIC.
There are two issues:
1. I don't seem to be able to install the Security Certificate by clicking
on the Cert Error and then installing after viewing the certificate (this was
and still is possible when connecting an XPpro machine, I tested after I got
this problem)
2. When your start to run http:\\servername\connectcomputer I get the
dialogue that says do you want to run or save nshelp.exe. I click RUN and an
error stating:
Small Business Server Network Configuration Wizard:
"An errior occured while trying to copy the Client setup files. Check the
following and try again"
Check that the proxy box is not ticked (it isn't) It also says if I don'y
have a Proxy setup then I need to rerun the Client Deployment component on
the server. Since IE7 appears to be setup with a Proxy until I disable it I
haven't run the Client Deployment component on the server. Not sure how to do
this either.
If I click save instead of Run I can save the nshelp.exe to the desktop. But
as soon as I run that file (as admin) I get the same error.
Hope you guys can help, this is drive me and a number of others to
distraction.

Have you installed the patches outlined in this KB?
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/926505/en-us
There are patches for the both the SBS server and the workstation.
Have you disabled/unchecked IPv6 networking pieces on the laptop. SBS
doesn't use IPv6 (for now anyway)
You don't say what the error is that you're getting after starting the
nshelp.exe

Hi Guys,
I have been running an SBS2003R2 premium network for some time now with
XPpro workstations and with ISA2004SP3. All server and workstation updates
are current through WSUSSP3.
I am now adding my fist Vista laptop and had no luck in attaching to the
SBS
domain using the prefered ..\connectcomputer despite running the many KB
articles for the server and vista workstation. I have also been through a
diagnostics session with Jeff@TechSoEasy who is an emminent SBS guru. I
can
connect manually and have detached using the recommended proceedure before
attempting the rejoin (still with the same problem)
I see that others here have also had the same problem as myself and
wondered
what the Microsoft official position is regarding its fix. IE try to
connectcomputer and get an error after nshelp.exe runs and starts to
download
files.
I am happy to provide as much information as is required to get to the
bottom of this problem, as I'm frustrated by the lack of conclusions
evident
in other Q's relating to this matter.
Given that a fix is discovered I will post in the currently open
Experts-Exchange.com session that has been running for some days now.
