April 27th, 2010Unable to start Routing and Remote Access Server (RRAS) (Event IDs: 7023, 20070, 20151, 20063) after uninstalling Symantec Antivirus/Symantec Endpoint Protection
April 17th, 2010Question/Issue:
Why is this error produced after uninstalling Symantec Antivirus/Endpoint? “Unable to start RRAS (Event IDs: 7023, 20070, 20151, 20063)”
Symptoms:
First Error:
Source: RemoteAccess
Event ID: 20070
Error: Point to Point Protocol engine was unable to load the C:\Program Files\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection\SymRasMan.dll module. The specified module could not be found.
Second Error:
Source: RemoteAccess
Event ID: 20151
Error: The Control Protocol EAP in the Point to Point Protocol module C:\WINDOWS\System32\rasppp.dll returned an error while initializing. The specified module could not be found.
Third Error:
Source: Rasman
Event ID: 20063
Error: Remote Access Connection Manager failed to start because the Point to Point Protocol failed to initialize. The specified module could not be found.
Fourth Error:
Source: Service Control Manager
Event ID: 7023
Error: The Remote Access Connection Manager service terminated with the following error: The specified module could not be found.
Fifth Error:
If tried to restart the service from RRAS mmc, it gives the following Error: “Routing and Remote Access cannot be started because of the following error.” Please see event log for more information: The service has returned a service-specific error code. (8007042a)
Cause:
The default location of the file SymRasMan.dll is %SystemRoot%\System32\rastls.dll. On installing Symantec Antivirus or Symantec Endpoint Protection the default location is then changed and edited in the registry to C:\Program Files\SAV\SymRasMan.dll. After uninstallation this location is not reversed for Windows Server 2003 SP2 because it does create a backup of the key during the change/installation unlike Windows Small Business Server 2003
Solution:
To resolve this issue follow the steps below:
- Click Start
- Click Run
- Type regedit
- Navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\RasMan\PPP\EAP\13 - Select the folder 13
- Change the value for keys: “ConfigUiPath”, “IdentityPath”, “InteractiveUIPath” and “Path” to:
%SystemRoot%\System32\rastls.dll - Navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\RasMan\PPP\EAP\25 - Select the folder 25
- Change the value for keys: “ConfigUiPath”, “IdentityPath”, “InteractiveUIPath” and “Path” to:
%SystemRoot%\System32\rastls.dll - Re-start the computer (recommended not required)
- Start the RRAS service
stuck in the “backup in progress, redirected access”

How to convert Symantec Endpoint Protection clients from managed to unmanaged without uninstalling and reinstalling
March 16th, 2010Question/Issue:
Symantec Endpoint Protection Clients are installed as managed by a Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager. You need to change the clients to be unmanaged, but do not want to uninstall and reinstall the client.
Solution:
To convert the Symantec Endpoint Protection clients to unmanaged after they have been installed as managed
- Locate the Sylink.xml file that is located on CD 1 in the SEP folder.
- Copy the Sylink.xml file to a location that is accessible to clients on the network.
- On the client, navigate to CD2\TOOLS\NOSUPPORT\SYLINKDROP.
Note: CD2 may also be labeled CD3 - Run SylinkDrop.exe on each Symantec Endpoint Protection client that needs to be converted to an unmanaged client.
Note
If the communication mode was not set for Client Control in the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager policies during initial installation, you will not be able to change the local client policies after placing the new Sylink.xml file on the client.
This procedure changes the managed client to an unmanaged client, but will not change the policies that exist on the client. Ensure that you have the ability to change settings and run LiveUpdate on the client before changing the client to unmanaged. If you change the client to unmanaged without ensuring that you can change settings on the client , you may need to uninstall and then reinstall the client if you need to change settings in the future.
