Does anyone know where i can find a comparison chart between 2000 and 2003.
We need to migrate an SBS 2000 server too 2003 and the customer before they
commits to it wants to know the advantages of 2003 over 2000. As if 2000 is
no longer supported by microsoft is enough.

So I have been going through the Microsoft SBS hardware Migration
documents and I have come to the point where I am stuck. I cannot
migrate the IIS websites using the IISMigration tool. Every time I try
and connect to the source server I get access denied. RPC is working
as I can browse the event viewer or remote registry from one to the
other and vice versa. For some reason I cannot manage IIS remotely
from the destination on the source and vice versa. Anyone ever
encounter this? Nothing I see is getting logged on either server so i
really am lost as to what the issue is.

Any help would be great!

PS, i have already moved exchange, AD FSMO roles, etc. Now its just
time for the little things.

firewal/AV is also disabled. plus servers are on same network,etc.

Hi,
I had my backup fail several days in a row. I corrected the issue and want
to remove the failed references. When I open Server Management and click on
Backup the Backup Details show failed backups for several days. I would like
to remove the failed backups and start over. How would I do this?
Thanks

Hi, I am backing up to a 4mm Data Tape (72GB) using the SBS Backup program
(with the Windows Backup program). I am trying to backup C, D and System
State. I have noticed over the last couple of weeks that the System State
has not backed up at all and it doesn't look like the D drive is being
backed up correctly either. When I check the tape in the morning it has
already been ejected but before this problem started it stayed in the drive.
Below is a copy of the latest log. I notice that the media is not being
found on the second part of the backup but why is it being ejected early? I
have reset the backup schedule but this doesn't seem to make any difference.

Strange one this. My users have been complaining about "freezes"
sometimes when they are accessing files on the SBS server via shared
folders. I have also noticed "freezes" when administering the server
using RDP.

On further investigation (I watched the CPU process graphs in Task
Manager), it is the process "System" that is spiking to 25%% CPU every
few mins - and when this happens the server slows down (i.e. I cna move
the mouse but things don't respond until the spike event is over). The
server is a Dell PE1900 with a single quad core Xeon processor to
2.3GHz. 2GB Ram. Pretty much straight out of the box.

In Performance Manager I created a log as follows:

1) Performance Object = Thread
2) Counter = %% Processor Time
3) Instances = All "System" instances

I ran the log for 24 hrs and it seems there are 4 instances that have
high CPU use compared with the rest. How can I find out what threads
might be causing this?

Reading Google it suggests that it System CPU spikes may be caused by
driver issues...

I have a Windows XP Pro computer that has a dual monitor option video card.
I can see this via the desktop/settings Display and I have 2 monitor
options. This video card is equipped with a single VGA port. I bought a
splitter to split into 2 monitors and then went into the settings to
"extend" the desktop (via the checkbox) on the 2nd VGA. When I hit apply it
does not save the checkbox settings and all I get is a same screen on both
monitors and no extension.

I know the video card supports dual monitors based on the settings section
but is there something special in splitter cables where I need to make sure
I have a specialized one that will do dual monitor for extended desktops vs.
show the same image?
