I had a problem today with an exchange 2007 RTM server that refused to accept incoming mails.
Testing with telnet to port 25 and trying to send an E-mail manually, produced this error:
452 4.3.1 Insufficient system resources
Monthly archives for June, 2011
Exchange 2007 stopped processing incoming E-mails
FortiClient SSL VPN dropping the connection at 98%.
Just a quick reminder to myself, FortiClient SSL VPN can drop the dialing process if the “Mcafee security scan plus” is installed on the PC.
Check in “add/remove programs” if you see the “Mcafee security scan plus”, uninstall it and try to connect again.
A lot of security software like anti-viruses and personal firewalls can interfere with the dialing process of the SSL VPN, try to disable them if the problems persists.
Update:
Microsoft Security Essentials is blocking the dialing process too.
Update 2:
Try to disable IPV6 from network setting.

Windows 2000 high CPU after converting to VM.
A couple of days ago I had to convert an old windows 2000 server to VMWare using Vmware converter (P2V).

Inside the VM, the Task manager showed a normal cpu usage. READ MORE »
