Microsoft has released an update for SBS 2003 to allow Vista RTM clients to join the network with or without ISA. Have you made sure your server has all available updates for it from Microsoft Update (not Windows Updated).<BR/><BR/>Also, what is the behavior if you try to join the Vista client to the domain manually?Sean Danielhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05628006595925427776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8453126.post-46179630417983123402007-10-11T11:08:00.000-07:002007-10-11T11:08:00.000-07:00. . .Aah but you all may not be able to read the blog if not members so here is summary.<BR/>Hi folks,<BR/>I have an SBS2003R2 premium server running ISA2004SP3 with predominantly XPSP2 workstations. I have a brandnew laptop with a clean install of Vista Business that I want to connect to the SBS domain.<BR/>I have read and performed all of the hotfixes and KBs in KB926505 but I still cannot connect to the domain.<BR/><BR/>I run http://servername/connectcomputer and then get the certificate error (this is expected accordeing to the KB) I continue to the website and get the Network configuration window (so its resolving to the server\connectcomputer) If I click on 'connect to network now' I'm asked to run nshelp.exe so I click 'run' as instructed. I click continue at the user account control and get the error:<BR/><BR/>An error occured while trying to copy the client setup files. Check the following and try again:<BR/>If you use a public proxy server to browse the internet, clear the Internet Explorer connection setting for using a proxy server. To do this . . . .. <BR/>If you do not have a public proxy configured for the internet explorer, then your network administrator must reinstall the client deployment component on the server. To do this from add and remove programs run windows small business server setup in maintenance mode and then run client setup again.<BR/><BR/>I cleared the proxy server setting in IE (was configured after I installed the Vista ISA2004 FW client as part of the KB926505 changes) Still no joy. I have check the permissions in IIS for the connectcomputer and all seems OK (scripts only permission for folder)<BR/><BR/>Can anyone throw any light on this. I see the Mr Lee from MS has had a go but there is no conclusion despite many others stating they have the same problem.Trevor Whitewww.whytec.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8453126.post-91728035520793346062007-10-11T11:03:00.000-07:002007-10-11T11:03:00.000-07:00Hi Guys,<BR/>I have a VistaBusiness/SBS2003R2/ISA2004SP3 issue . . . can't run connectcomputer. The detail is currently on a blog at http://www.experts-exchange.com/OS/Microsoft_Operating_Systems/Server/SBS_Small_Business_Server/Q_22885164.html.<BR/><BR/>As you can see we are drying up a bit and I still have not connected the Vista box to the SBS domain despite applying all of the hot fixes available. My SBS server will allow me to add an XPpro box to the domain.<BR/><BR/>Can anyone through some light on this.???Trevor Whitewww.whytec.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8453126.post-50959330411647688022007-08-26T20:51:00.000-07:002007-08-26T20:51:00.000-07:00Nope, just install the Vista update from Microsoft Update and you can use the connect computer as you stated above.<BR/><BR/>SeanSean Danielhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05628006595925427776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8453126.post-23811601122609716022007-08-24T11:00:00.000-07:002007-08-24T11:00:00.000-07:00Are these posts still relevant?

Hello down in Paraguay.<BR/><BR/>Make sure your server has the Vista update from Microsoft Update first.<BR/><BR/>This error means that the local user you are running on the Vista client is not a member of the local administrators group. Make sure you add this user to the local administrators group. you can do this by right-clicking My computer and choosing Manage, then adding them to the "Administrators" group.<BR/><BR/>hope this helps!Sean Danielhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05628006595925427776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8453126.post-29989550069091386812007-04-19T16:14:00.000-07:002007-04-19T16:14:00.000-07:00sorry.. it was "You should be part of the local security group, to make change."<BR/><BR/>Regards.edgarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13893414918701178540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8453126.post-66397140538739118132007-04-19T16:12:00.000-07:002007-04-19T16:12:00.000-07:00Hi Sean!

Unless you turn off the group policy, or apply a WMI filter to restrict the Vista from getting updates, it's going to get updates from the local WSUS.<br /><br />However, why do you <b>*not*</b> want to have Vista get the latest updates from WSUS? The patches will come through the WSUS server for Vista, and you'll be up and secure.Sean Danielhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05628006595925427776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8453126.post-43975500916107663962006-11-28T16:48:00.000-08:002006-11-28T16:48:00.000-08:00Hi, guide worked like a charm for me on RTM.

I personally have Ultimate running at my house, joined to my domain. I know the other business skus will work too.<br /><br />The SBS product team is releasing an update for SBS 2003 to make the client deployment (http://server/connectcomputer) to function on Vista, as well as migrate profiles.<br /><br />Hope this helps clear things up.Sean Danielhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05628006595925427776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8453126.post-14078529313951633332006-11-28T06:36:00.000-08:002006-11-28T06:36:00.000-08:00Thanks for all the updates on this critical information.<br /><br />Perhaps I'm misreading your information but it sounds like you're saying Microsoft is releasing Vista for SBS (& other) Volume Customers (the one's we are being encouraged to sign up for the Desktop SKU) but the tools needed to make those desktops connect to the SBS domain aren't yet ready. So we now have to stall our customers for a month or so or install each workstation using the workarounds you've previously posted.

The Vista Release in November is for Volume Licensing folks only, the actual retail version, which is what we're targetting is in Janurary.. <br /><br /><a href="http://www.betanews.com/article/CompUSA_to_Sell_Vista_November_30/1163457246">Microsoft announced November 30 availability of Windows Vista and Office 2007 for its volume licensing customers.
