I have 4 clients (out of about 15) that cannot connect to our SBS 2003 Premium server, all other clients work without any problems. The connection problems only seem to occur when I enable the website block (By denying access to a specific url set) I put in place the enable the web proxy logging, disabling those 2 features will cause the clients to reconnect (it always seems to affect those specific clients). The clients use Windows XP and Vista, all have the Microsoft Firewall Client installed and other firewalls disabled. The problem is that I am currently out of the country and cannot do any troubleshooting on the client. I tried the live logging on the server to see if I can figure out what is blocking the clients but the live logging does not appear to work as it yields no results. Following is the Ipconfig of our server: Windows IP Configuration Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . : moasrv01 Primary Dns Suffix . . . . . . . : MUGELE.lan Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Unknown IP Routing Enabled. . . . . . . . : Yes WINS Proxy Enabled. . . . . . . . : Yes DNS Suffix Search List. . . . . . : MUGELE.lan PPP adapter RAS Server (Dial In) Interface: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : Description . . . . . . . . . . . : WAN (PPP/SLIP) Interface Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-53-45-00-00-00 DHCP Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : No IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 169.254.144.164 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.255 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : NetBIOS over Tcpip. . . . . . . . : Disabled Ethernet adapter Lan: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Broadcom BCM5708C NetXtreme II GigE (NDIS VBD Client) Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-13-72-67-32-93 DHCP Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : No IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.0.117.5 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.0.117.5 Primary WINS Server . . . . . . . : 10.0.117.5 Ethernet adapter Internet: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Broadcom BCM5708C NetXtreme II GigE (NDIS VBD Client) #2 Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-13-72-67-32-95 DHCP Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : No IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 68.216.9.226 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.224 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 68.216.9.225 DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.0.117.5 NetBIOS over Tcpip. . . . . . . . : Disabled Thanks.
