Why do you have the two dns servers on the client? Usually they should only point to the SBS Server. Have updated all the drivers for the processor and network cards? Thanks David

Hello David 2nd DNS has been removed. SBS DNS address is now the only one. Still fails. Network drivers have been checked, no updates available. I would be surprised this could cause the problem. RPC communications have been checked using PortQueryUI in order to make sure that nothing was inadvertandly blocked by one of the routers. No problem have been noticed. Well I'm stuck Thank you Nicolas

Hi Nicolas,

What are the vmadapters doing on the sbs server? Can you disable them if you are not using vmware on the sbs (and I wouldn't really recommend trying to do that on SBS in the first place)?

You are missing WINS on the SBS nic, and WINS is still needed when doing VPN (as well as Exchange still needs WINS).

Are you indeed running WINS server on the additional DC? Have you disabled the advanced features on the nics of both servers, as well as disabling them in the registry, the TCPIP key?

Does the additional DC have the sysvol and netlogon shares?

Mission accomplished. We have joined the branch office to our SBS 2003 Headquarters and have the same user experience on the branch office as we have on our local network at the Headquarters.

VMWAre : VMWare server has been installed and running for more than a year to support a specific business application. Test with both virtual interfaces deactivated has already been done with no change on the result WINS: Well it has been running for more than 3 years like this. Shall I check installation of WINS service and add SBS IP to the WINS tab? Still could you be more specific on this need? Are you indeed running WINS server on the additional DC? Have you disabled the advanced features on the nics of both servers, as well as disabling them in the registry, the TCPIP key? I did that on the branch office, not on the SBS Box. Are you reffering to what is described in part 2? Does the additional DC have the sysvol and netlogon shares? No and this is the problem. As described in previous thread : NETDIAG: only one error related to DC Ping to sbs box using DNS that is sbs.domain.local or any other PC in the SBS sub network: OK Access to sysvol share \\domain.local\sysvol\doamin.local: OK Active directory users and computers mmc: OK Thank you Nicolas

The problem has been fixed using the following procedure on both servers. Unfortunately I don't know if the fix applied to one of the server was the solution: 1. Expand "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NtFrs\Parameters" 2. Change value for "Enable Journal Wrap Automatic Restore" from 0 to 1. If the DWORD Value does not exist, create a new one with the exact spelling as above, including spaces but without the quotes. 3. Stop the NTFRS Service (open a command prompt and type "net stop ntfrs") 4. Start the NTFRS Service (net start ntfrs) 5. Change value for "Enable Journal Wrap Automatic Restore" from 1 to 0.
