Is this a working production machine or a test machine? If an actual production machine, how are the users and especially the onwer/boss handling the down time and problems?? Ace
From: Mike_in_Nebraska on 11 Jan 2010 10:05 I exported all the rules, so I can quickly get it back up. Most we're out of town on business last week. This week ... they're all back.
From: Mike_in_Nebraska on 11 Jan 2010 10:06 Looks like I'm going in. Still can't get to the server remotely.
From: Mike in Nebraska on 12 Jan 2010 03:57 It's out of my hands ... they called in an IT company to get the network back up.

I see. Quite unfortunate. I would think calling Microsoft CSS to assist you last week would have been a better course of action for you to fix it with their assistance. Are you still in the loop? If so, please keep us updated with the results. Ace |
