Make sure the firewall allows connections for RDP on the wireless adapter. Try disabling the firewall on the client. If you then can connect you'll have to configure the firewall to allow RDP through the wireless connection.

Does anyone use a web mail app and if you do what app do you use? I've been using Exchange for web mail, but, I am looking for a more compact app. My users don't need all the extra fluff that Exchange brings to the table. I'm looking for a solution so my users can log in read the email and respond when they need. Ideally this would allow me to give users email address' without giving them an account on the domain. It would need to have web based sign ups. I have some users that work on the road and don't want or need a full Windows accounts. They have requested a way to check there email without having to connect to VPN and use Outlook. I pointed them to Exchange web UI and they say it is too clunky. Is there a lightweight web mail app out there and if there is point me to it?

Let us know how it goes.

If it can run Vista then it can wun Windows 2008 Server. You will have no poblems with that motherboard.

There are a few things could be causing this. Connection to the DC dying. Nic card drivers causing the problem. User credentials becoming corrupt Are there any error codes associated with the event id? That could help to pinpoint the exact problem.

Your English is fine. Are both client and server in the same subnet?

What program are you running with the task? If the program requires more than the alloted time to complete it will run to completion unless you stop.

Can you post a list of the rolls you have installed? I have a feelin you have a roll that didn't install correctly and the help is coming up so you can troubleshoot thr problem.

Ive never seen that before. Does the help dialog come up all the time on boot?

I didn't realize there was no tape backup option. I backup to another hard drive and then use DeltaCopy to sync it with my offsite server.

Alex, why not use the backup tools within Windows 2008? http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc770266.aspx for an overview of the rolls available. I use it to batckup my servers. I also use DeltaCopy to backup files and settings to my home server.

You can set permissions per folder, per file or per site by using IIS manager. Right click the file, folder or site, select properties. Select security and edit the access restrictions.

Like I said it depends on what you want to run. Minimum requirements are the same as 2003 although you're not going to get good performance with minimum requirements.

As long as you have enough memory in the box you'll be ok. The only limitation is memory and cpu power.

Depends what you want to run on it. What are your plans for the server? What are you going to run?

You need a server version av. Home versions will not work.

You may be right. I've searched and the only solutions I saw dealt with windows 2000 and NT. All those solutions say it's a permission error caused by bad permissions of any addin controls. Maybe they depricated the use and didn't let devs know, but, left it in 2008 for backwards compatibility that is broken.

Have you tried setting "Force access check for this application" to off? You access that setting in the security tab of your components property dialog. I see you already tried that. Missed reading your reply. Let me see what else I can come with.

Let me know if it helps. Vista has always had a problem copying files slowly. It seems to be fixed in Windows 7.

I've had this happen to me. I was never able to figure out what caused the problems. After the server was up and running for a few days things seemed to smooth out. maybe it has something to do with the indexing service. try turning it off and see if it helps.

There was a similar question asked here when we first opened. It was caused by the app being run in 64bit mode. Have you turned on 32bit compatibility mode for scripts and controls? For reference: http://serverforum.org/f2/iis-7-cant-start-classic-com-38.html

Nope. I'm not wrong. I wish there was a way, but, there isn't.. There is no way to downgrade. The only option is to save all your settings and migrate them to the new install.

Make sure you add the ewxtension in IIS manager and set the status to enabled.

This could be caused by an unstable network connection. Does the same thing happen when you login directly to the servers?

No. You'll have to reinstall.
