Unauthenticated Network?
Hi-
On some of the workstations on my SBS2003 network the Network and Sharing Center is showing the network connection as "Unauthenticated" and showing a yellow triangle icon. It doesn't seem to have any impact on performance that I can see, but looks messy. What does Unauthenticated in this context mean, and why do some stations show it and not others? How do I get rid of it? |

Unauthenticated Network?
Problem Solved!
Solution was to unjoin the workstation from the domain, reset the secure channel, then rejoining the workstation back to the domain On Fri, 22 Feb 2008 07:46:20 -0500, BobP wrote: Hi- On some of the workstations on my SBS2003 network the Network and Sharing Center is showing the network connection as "Unauthenticated" and showing a yellow triangle icon.

I have the same problem but the solution that worked for you Bob didn't for
me. Any other suggestions guys? And there is loss of functionality. The firewall profile detected is not "domain" but "public" and the group policy firewall settings are not in effect. That means I cannot connect to the workstation via remote desktop and other such issues. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Alex. "BobP" wrote: Problem Solved!

Thanks very much for the reply Robert. I did all that you suggested and now
when trying to use the client deployment tools I get the following error: "Make sure that only one network adapter is enabled and that is connected to the Small Business Server" The clients are connected via wireless to the server and there is only one connection active (the wireless one).

Same error here with a new Dell Vostro 1700 running Vista. Trying to run
Connectcomputer. IP6 disabled, wired LAN connection and Bluetooth connection disabled. DNS is the SBS server. IPCONFIG still shows a couple of odd connection entries I have not seen befo Tunnel adapter Local Area Connection* 6 Tunnel adapter Local Area Connection* 11 Just setup a Vostro 1400 last week for another SBS customer w/o hitch. What gives Microsoft? "Alex Zamfir" wrote: Thanks again for the reply Robert. IPv6 is disabled. Same error. The chicagotech post didn't help either. Any other ideeas? Thanks a lot in advance.

I figured out that you need to run the ConnectComputer wizard on the Wired
Connection. Disable all others and it will run. Would be nice if the error message would tell you this so I am not spending 1/2 hour of the client's time troubleshooting.

Unauthenticated Network?
I too am getting this, at the moment on both my laptop (New Dell with Vista
Business) and my desktop, joined to a standard Windows Server R2 domain. Yellow warning triangle with exclamation mark, network connection showing as unauthenticated. It's interfering with my offline files on the laptop. Both machines fully patched and running SP1, though it was happening before this. Anyone any ideas? This 'unauthenticated network' thing seems do be completely undocumented by MS, I can't find anything on it. -Colm "Schyler Jones" Schyler wrote in message ...
