Hi guys, Am new to that server stuff and my first question is it possible to have Windows 2000 Clients added to a Windows Server 2008 Domain? Greetings Fredy

I install IIS 7, I have an FTP site running and under the Default FTP site I added a virtual directory. But I get a permissions error when I try to connect to ftp://Server.net/Test When I have the default web site selected the name and path of my virtual directory are in the right list pane. But when I select the "Test" virtual directory nothing shows up. I would think it would show the text doc I put in there for testing. If I right click and select explore I see my sub directory and my text doc, if I select browse I get the 550 error - Access denied. Thanks, Phil

I just setup a new server running Standard Server 2008. Everything seems to be running without errors, but I have installed SharePoint 3.0 with service pack and IPSwitch IMail. Both SharePoint and IMail come up with a blank page on both the Configuration pages and the user / client pages? Any clues?

In my environment, users log on and our home grown app automatically runs from a folder on the D drive (partition). Users do not have access to anything in their profile, except that app. (no desktop, apps, etc.) I noticed that the profiles are anywhere from 4-9 MB, this seems a little large, especially when 60-80 users log on. What's are some things I can do to keep these profiles to a minimum, or even possibly delete them after they log off?

One should NOT have to add any print drivers to 2008 Terminal Server in order for any printer to show up for a user's Terminal Session? (Speaking of TS Easy Print) I run an x64 Terminal Server 2008, and have a user that connects and does not see his HP Color Laserjet 3800n. This user is running Windows XP sp3. I installed the printer on my Vista sp1 machine, logged in as the user, and the printer maps (redirects) as it should. Does anyone know what the deal is here?

I have changes things around a bit to get ready for the software upgrade next weekend. The resource directory is now moved to the forum and the old directory has been removed. There are other changes that went on behind the scenes. This is to make the upgrade as easy as possible.

I was looking to run a machine with Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition as a web server. Is there anything you can tell me I need to know if I colocated a server? i.e.-Is the Windows Advanced firewall good enough or would I need an external firewall to be secure? Any information would be appreciated.

Hello , I hope this is the correct forum to post this question. I installed server 2008 60 day trial last week. OS installed without any issues, I added the role of file server all OK. Added the server to my current sbs2003 domain without an issue. I wanted to test how fast server 2008 is at basic file serving. I setup a share with full permissions for the everyone account. I then copied files from our 2003 server to the share on the 2008 server. Network speed was good, all files copied across successfully. I can browse the share from any windows machine on the domain. I then opened a solidworks assembly from that share using a Windows XP client, the a…

The I64 version of 2008 does not self-boot on its own. (it's not a bootable DVD once imaged). I am running WinXP Pro 32 bit but have free partitioned space to dual boot Server 2008 I64. It won't install within windows (says not a valid win32 op)... so my question is, how do I install it? I have tried re-imaging with VLite... no luck... Any suggestions?

Hello to all again. Can someone direct me to the reason that I would need a router instead of a switch? I have a small network running peer-to-peer ( for right now until I get the new server up and tested) we have 4 switches right now: 2 10/100 and 2 10/100/1000. What would be the reasons for obtaining a router at this point? My boss seems to think that we won't need a router because we already have the switches. Is this correct? or should I get the router? Will Server 2008 take care of the needs that a router would fulfill? Lots of questions, but I want to get the true "netowrk" up and running correctly. Not just a bunch of linked computers? Any info or direction…
