As silly as this sounds, being the problem and all, we ARE the ISP, so all other services are up and fine, it's just this mail server that's giving us a headache. We just installed this new server 2 days ago as we had outgrown the old one. It seems 90% of the move went just fine, but there are these few issues that have popped up, web messaging which was handled, now the server just stopping responding. It's not locked up or anything, you can open IMailadmin, see services running, monitor shows nothing maxed out, just the multiple POP3s under task manager. but no one can log on. I'm new at this, and so I apologize for any stupid questions, I appreciate the replies tho. I'll have a look at the power management. How would that effect a server that runs 24/7? We've been talking with Ipswitch and they're clueless as to what the problem is as well,
Just as a suggestion and not knowing what/where/when/why/who.. but if you are a major provisioning company, ie: WorldCom, Sprint, etc., then you should have a few dozen engineers readily available to support you. If you are like the majority of us here we purchase bandwidth for use and/or resale. If the later being your case then you might want to check with 'your' provisioning folks to ensure that the 'Internet' was available at the time of your non-connectivity. (The company whom you buy your internet connection from.) Not knowing the cause of the concern I'd suspect a connectivity issue. I would try to ensure that the NIC Cards are fully functional and available for traffic. To disable all power management functions for some NIC Cards: Go to Control Panel -> Power Options, you should a dialog box. Set the power schemes to 'Always On', change settings for power scheme to 'Never' for both monitor and hard disks. Click the Tabs on top of the dialog box and clear all the check-box on each screen. Go to Control Panel ->System -> Hardware -> Device Manager -> Network Adapters. Double Click your adapter ie: Intel Pro 100+ or 3Com xxx. Select Power Management Tab. Uncheck the box "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". ~Rick ___________________________________________________________________ Virus Scanned and Filtered by http://www.FamHost.com E-Mail System.
