SYMPTOMS
When you try to load the Small Business Server (SBS) Administrator console in SBS 2000, you may receive one or more of the following error messages:

Title: MMC

Snap-in failed to initialize.

Name: - not available -

CLSID: {5747649D-2F1A-11D3-9B2F-00C04FA37E1F}

CLSID: {348C0FC2-01CE-4C9D-9194-37471933A238}

The SBS Administrator console loads, but the &quot;Server Status (BackOffice Home)&quot; page does not display. In addition, the Customize and Create a Query options on the &quot;Small Business Server (BackOffice Manager)&quot; page may be unavailable.



CAUSE
This issue may occur if the DLL files that are associated with the MMC snap-ins are missing, damaged, or are not registered correctly.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue:
 * 1) Insert the SBS 2000 CD-ROM disc three into your CD-ROM drive.
 * 2) Copy all of the files from the CD-ROM drive letter:\Bkoffice\I386\Admin folder to your \Program Files\Microsoft Backoffice\Management folder.
 * 3) Remove the read-only attribute from each of the files that you copied in step 2.
 * 4) Open a command prompt, and then navigate to your \Program Files\Microsoft Backoffice\Management folder. Run the for /f %x in ('dir /b *.dll') do regsvr32 %x command to register the DLL.
 * 5) Quit the SBS Administrator console, and then start it again.
