I'm not, but, I have run Sharepoint on 2003.

Shouldn't be a problem.

I'm not using it. In the future, when I have more than 2 servers for network logon I might set it up.

Check permissions on the directory. Make sure the FTP user has permissions to access the directory.

Welcome to the site.

You don't need any added protection, but, I am one that believes that one can never be too protected. I use a hardware firewall as well as Windows firewall. The only thing you need to know is make sure the company you colo with has good security. You don't want anyone to have access to your server except the network people. I prefer using a local company so I have physical access to the server when I need it. In case of a hardware failure it's always better to be able to drive a few miles with the replacements then to ship it off somewhere. Downtime is held to a minimum.

Basic GUI configuration utility for Windows Server Core 2008 If have Windows Server 2008 core only installed this is a nice utility to configure many of the options.

Yes it is the same.

The only thing I could suggest is to check the permissions on the file store. Windows Servers have a modify permission and it seems to override write permissions when changing files.

You're welcome.

Which ever you choose will work. You could install either x86 64 or x86 32.

You can't run or install x64 software in a 32bit environment. Only way to install is make the dvd bootable. I have burned every build of Windows 2008 while beta testing and not once did any of them not boot. You must have a bad iso.

Encryption should be set by default. I know when I connect to my server it lets me know the connection is secure.

Post a reply to this thread to introduce yourself to the community. For those that don't know I am Bob the owner of this site. I've been running Windows Servers for 10 years after migrating from Redhat and FreeBSD. During that time I have written articles and tutorials to share my knowledge. I opened this forum so that all of us can share what we know.

As you can see the site was upgraded and along with the software upgrade we changed the look and added a couple more forums. We removed the gallery replacing it with the built option to create your own albums. You can create your gallery by visiting your user control panel or use this lnk to create your album. You can also create your own social group to interact with friends that are also members. You can choose to make these groups private/invite only or public to allow everyone to join and interact. You can create your social group by visiting your control panel or use this link to create your group. You can also create your own blog by visiting your control panel. We added new forums to cover Microsoft Windows desktop operating systems. Since we use either Vista, XP or maybe even Windows 95/98/ME to connect to and manage our servers I felt we should also have forums for them. Welcome to the new Windows Server 2008 Forum!

Yes you need to uninstall completely, not just disable, to install Exchange.

You'll need at least 256 of memory, 512 perferred for development environment per virtual OS. Depending on how much memory the server has determines number of OS you can run.For what you want to do I would recommend at least 8 gigs on the server and to run Windows 2008 x64.

This document provides information about installing the Windows Server 2008 operating system. It also provides information that you can use to troubleshoot problems that may occur during the installation. Setup works in several stages. You will be prompted for some basic information, then Setup will copy files and restart the computer. Setup concludes by presenting a menu for Initial Configuration Tasks, which you can use to adjust the server configuration for your specific needs Read Installing Windows Server 2008

Any vm that you install will be it's own instance. Think of it as a seperate OS. You can install software. When one of the devs works in his virtual OS any work done will be saved and available for him/her next logon. Each developers files would only be available to them unless you create a public directory accessible to all.

In a word, yes, it is possible. What you want can be done.
