Re: Security Question - Totally Stumped

Nope, went into SBS Server Managmenet/Server Computers then highlighted
SERVER2 then hit Remove Computer from Network. I also went to the client
and joined a workgroup then started the join process again via the SBS.

I suspect that happened because you didn't delete the account on the SBS
box.

Claus, that's exactly what I did in order to try the "ConnectComputer"
option. As I said earlier when I did this and used the ConnectComputer
option to join the network I get a message back stating that the computer
has already joined the network.

I would recommend to disjoin the server via properties (add it to a
workgroup), then delete the computer account on the SBS box, create a new
account and use the "ConnectComputer" to join the server back into the
domain. This is the proper way of doing it in an SBS environment and I'm
pretty sure you will not have the same problems afterwards.

I have done it both ways (from SERVER2 join the domain via My
Computer/Properties and provide credentials) and (from SERVER1 add
SERVER2 then go to connectcomputer from SERVER2) with the same result.
When doing the 2nd option of going to connectcomputer I do get a message
of "this computer has already joined the domain" so not sure what
ConnectComputer should do here for the SERVER2.

What's strange is SERVER1 (SBS 2003 box) SERVER2 looks perfect. I can
even go to SERVER2 and log in using the domain credentials. I know
something is not quite right but I'm lost as to what to turn to next.

When you joined the server into the domain, did you use
"connectcomputer" or did you do this manually?

Setup: Domain = MyDomain, SERVER (SBS 2003 R2), SERVER2 (Windows
2003 R2, SQL 2005)

SERVER2 has joined to the SBS domain (verified by looking at the AD
on SERVER).

When I log into SERVER2 using the Admin credentials of the domain
(Mydomain\administrator) no problem. When I open up IE from SERVER2
and try to hit CompanyWeb running off of SERVER in the SBS domain I
get prompted for credentials instead of just going to the web site.
I can put in "MyDomain\Administrator" and password and it opens up
Companyweb no problem, but why am I even prompted? I logged in under
a domain account.

To add to this SERVER2 also has SQL 2005 with Reporting Services.
With using the same MyDomain\Administrator login I try and hit
http://SERVER2/Reports and again I am prompted for credentials
instead of going directly to the site. I can put in credientals and
it continues. I even log in as the local Admin and the same thing
happens. I have looked at the group memberships and I can't see a
problem. Just to add to this I can go to any XP workstation and
login as MyDomain\Administrator and no problem hitting CompanyWeb or
http://SERVER2/Reports. Finally, I even try another domain account
that has domain admin privledges and get the same results so it's
something with this machine.

Where this is causing me a problem is that I cannot install CRM
Professional on SERVER2 because it says it cannot see the SQL Report
Server and I know it's because it can't go directly to the site and
instead looking for credentials. Since I didn't have much important
stuff on SERVER2 I even re-installed the OS thinking something to
hosed but I get the same results.

I'm totally lost on where to turn for answers on this one. I've
wasted DAYS on this one.

Thanks for any help or guidance.
