I updated the driver for my Broadcom NIC on my SBS server and had problems.
The server lost the NIC and IP configurations. I was able to get the driver
updated, the NIC reconfigured, all TCP/IP connectivity working, but RRAS has
not started since the update problem. I am looking for ideas about what is
going wrong and how to fix it.

It fails with events

Event Type: Error
Event Source: RemoteAccess
Event Category: None
Event ID: 20103
Date: 11/1/2006
Time: 10:15:33 AM
Description: Unable to load C:\WINNT\System32\iprtrmgr.dll.
Data: 0000: 02 00 00 00 ....

and

Event Type: Error
Event Source: Service Control Manager
Event Category: None
Event ID: 7024
Date: 11/1/2006
Time: 10:15:36 AM
Description: The Routing and Remote Access service terminated with
service-specific error 2.

RRAS is/was configured to solely support remote access via 2 modems. I
followed the first 3 steps of MS KB 299013 with no improvement. I am very
reluctant to try uninstalling/reinstalling TCP/IP as suggested in step 4. I
turned on the RAS trace, tried to start the service, and got the following
in \WINNT\tracing:
