Re: ConnectComputer Vista to SBS 2003 fails


The Default Web Site is listening to all unassigned on port 80. However: I
have no SBSNetsetup.log. I do have a Netsetuplog, but its latest entry is
fromlast february

Meanwhile: shouldnt we return to the error message itself which suggests tpo
reinstall the Client Setup Wizard?

ISSUE
=====
When join a computer (vista) to the SBS (no ISA) domain, it shows the
following error message when running the connection link:

"An error occurred whil trying to copy the Client Setup files. Check the
following, and then try again:
If you use a public proxy server to browse the Intrernet, clear the Internet
Explorer connectino setting for using a proxy server. ...
If you do not have a public proxy configured for Internet Explorer, then
your network administrator must reinstall the Client Deployment component on
the server. ..."

The SBSNetSetup log has this:

-- Starting SBS Net Setup --
-- DoDNSQueryCompanyWeb(): Current server IP 10.0.0.3 --
-- Query for the IP of 'CompanyWeb'. SBS Server is [10.0.0.3] --
-- ServerURL is [http://10.0.0.3/connectcomputer/] --
CNSHelp::Start() - DownloadFile(server.txt) failed [-2146697191]
CNSHelp::Start() - one or more files missing, showing an error and exiting

CAUSE
======
Default web site is not listening on "All Unassigned" for port 80.

RESOLUTION
===========
Set default web site to listen on "All Unassigned" for port 80. To do so:

Open IIS MMC, right click Default Web Site and then click Properties. In the
Web site tab, make sure "All Unassigned" is selected in IP address field.

If not, please change it and run "iisreset".

Note: Before above steps, you may need to check the following:

1. Run CEICW to re-configure the network and firewall on the SBS server.

2. Configure workstations to point to the SBS 2003 server for DNS.

3. Add the ConnectComputer server's IP address or FQDN to the Local Intranet
zone in the Internet Explorer of the client workstations.

4. Make sure the IP addresses of those client workstations are in the same
subnet as the SBS internal NIC.

Have to run the SBS 2003 BPA on the server to see if it can find any
problems?

If you have any antivirus (especially with firewalls), disable them during
ConnectComputer.

Thanks, it's an inplace upgrade. I boutght Vista Business whereas I
shouldve
bought Ultimate.
Elsewhere I'd already seen the suggestion to remove the check about
secure
communications... but that one never was checked.
I have already tried to delete the computer from my domain. I have
deleted
it from the Computersconsole in the ServerManager, do not know if that is
the
same as unjoining.
But this deletion, some reboots of the server and the client have brought
no
improvement.

Maybe try:

1. Unjoin the computer from the domain (make sure you know a local
administrator username/password so you can log into it once it's in a
workgroup)
2. Delete the computer in the SBS Console
3. Recreated the computer in the SBS Console
4. Rejoin the computer to the domain

Also, you might want to post an ipconfig /all for both the SBs srver
and
the Vista workstation.

And you can try:

1. Open IIS MMC.
2. Go to Server(local computer)\Web Sites\Default Web
Site\Connectcomputer.
3. Right click Connectcomputer and select properties.
4. On the Directory Security tab, click Edit under Secure
Communications.
5. Remove the selection of Require secure channel(SSL) and Require
128-bit
encryption if it is selected.
6. Click OK and check how ConnectComputer works.

Upgrades can be a pain. Was this an in-place upgrade or a 'wipe and
install' of Vista Business? Wipe and install seems to be less painful.

Mery, thanks. I disabled every nic in my setup except the Nvidia that
is
on
the mobo (and the one to be used). Among the things i switched off was
the
Teredo Tunneling protocol which is a sort op VPN isnt it? Anyway,
after I
retried Connectcomputer, the old error did not appear anymore, but I
got
another, see here:

Hi Theo,

Something to try....

Set Vista up to "show hidden devices". Then go to the Network
Adapters
section in Device Manager and delete any old network adapters.
Assuming
you
found some to delete, retry ConnectComputer again. (and you may also
need
to temporarily disable the Bluetooth NIC before you run
COnnectComputer).

I try to connect Vista Business Client with SP1 to (multihomed) SBS
2003
(Standard) with 926505 installed.
After servername/ConnectComputer, it wants to run nshelp.exe, but
that
fails
with the message: "Make sure only one network adapter is enabled"

But there is only one network adapter on that client. However: This
is
a
former Vista Home Premium that I upgraded to Business. When that
upgrade
was
done it claimed that there was no network card and I reinstalled
it.
Nevertheless my hardware device manager only mentions one NIC
(besides
some
Wanports, Isatap and Bluetooth nics). This is a wired situation, I
do
not
have wireless, nor do I have a vpn running (that I know of).
Your suggestions are most welcome,

Thanks
Theo Richel
