    SBS SP1 install requirements/process - How to?

    If you have successfully updated SP1 on a Small Business Server 2003 you can probably help. I am going to (was just about to) update the SBS server with SP1, but it seems that its not just a SBS SP1 update that is required but also a standard W2003 SP1 install amongst other updates, see technet...

    Roaming clients/dynamic IPs connecting into a static firewall - cheap

    I am currently reinvestigating the whole firewall VPN issue for a small client. 2 years ago we set up a series of Netgear FVS318 LAN-to-LAN VPNs and a couple of Safenet softremote clients. It worked but was a real pain - as you will read in any of the FVS318 forum posts, its not easy and it...

    XP Home connecting to a domain

    I can not find an XP home forum, unless my eyes deceive me so I thought I would ask here. I have a small office/workgroup that are thinking of installing Windows 2003 SBS. The only problem is that for they all run XP Home edition and probably don't want to upgrade to Pro, I haven't actually...

    DHCP scope scavenging

    The DHCP scope on a W2K SBS is not scavenging. I have fixed the problem by manually reconciling the scope and then deleting the unused IP addresses. The scope was set to 2 days and I have now increased this to 5. The problem is resolved in the short term but I have 2 questions: 1. I thought...

    SBS2000 licensing query/location

    Small Business Server 2000 tells me that the company intermitantly is running out of licenses, which seems incorrect as I believe we have more licenses than users at the moment.
