Re: CEICW Network Error

the WAN(external) NIC has had a public IP address all along....and
everything was working great....

the router was provided by Optimum Online and was needed (according to them)
to facilitate a static IP for the External NIC

The end-user complained of large amounts of SPAM and that is why the
purchased ESET, removed SEP and the whole thing went downhill from there.

I suspect someone reconfigured the external NIC and gave it a public
address. Normally with a router in the mix, the router gets the public IP
address on its WAN side and its LAN side is given a (static) private IP
address in a subnet that is different from the Internal LAN. Then the
external NIC is given a (static) private IP address in the same subnet as
the router's LAN side.

SBS Two Nic configuration
(works with or without ISA)

SBS 2K3 SP 2

Dual Nic

WAN public IP Address nnn.nnn.nnn.250
LAN 192.168.0.2

router with IP address nnn.nnn.nnn.249

Users brought in another tech and messed up internet
connectivity....server had internet access, but AD desktops cannot get
to internet.

NOW NEITHER server or desktops have internet access

I have reviewed both NICs, binding orders, services....etc...

When I run CEICW I get these errors in the error log:

Error 0c8007007e returned from call to installing RRAS (LAN)().
Error 0c8007007e returned from call to CNetCommit::Common().
Error 0c8007007e returned from call to CNetCommit::Common().
calling CRFireCommit::Commitex (0x2d93C0).
calling CRFireCommit::ValidatePropertyBag no RRAS NAT Public Interface,
Basic Firewall will not be configured.().
Error 0x1 returned from call to CRFireCommit::CommitEx
ValidatePropertyBag returned S_FALSE().


The whole problem started when the other tech tried to mUNINSTALL
Symantec Endpoint 11.0 and then install ESET server and client.

Any H E L P is greatly appreciated...

TIA

RickD
