I had trouble installing the AdminPak on Vista also.

What I did was to start a 'Command Prompt' with 'run as Administrator' then mapped a drive to a Win2k3 DC that has SP2 and SR2 to the admin$ share

(net use x: \\dcname\admin$\system32)

then run adminpak.msi from the prompt, Active Directory Users and Computers, sites and Services Domains and trust all works fine.

Well, not having an admin pak and exchange tools stopped our vista deployment cold. If we can't use it in IT, we can't support a company wide deployment. Period, end of story.

I think MS finally got the word that not having an Admin Pak (or whatever they want to call it) is unacceptable. I've heard that there will be one available after all and that it will have dependencies on Vista SP1 (which I hear is in testing now).

BTW, Hyena is a great tool but it's far from free.

I have been working with small businesses for the last 20 years. I also manage my small business and network. I truly understand that the small business is getting screwed here. Microsoft is making it harder and harder to figure out how to manage your own system. They hide options to make your computer faster. They change the rules and force programmers to change for their benefit. They force us to stop using DOS, Win95, Win98 and soon XP when all those OS's could still work fine for many applications. Now they want us to manage computers their way. If you wnat free way of accessing your server without paying for TS License then use http://www.logmein.com. Atleast you won't have to pay Microsoft and best of all it's free!

Sounds like a decision from the MS "How do we get more admins mad at us?" department of PR.

Wow, has anyone thought of the irony here? Microsoft makes a new OS that cannot administer it's own network operating system. It seems to me guys that this is the beginning of a louder call to look at alternatives to microsoft. Why is it that admins feel they need some kind of central authority to learn something or to guide something? Sounds like communism to me. Take it upon yourselves to get the training and experience in something other than Microsoft. I see the light and will need to make the choice myself as well. Either do the work and get away from Microsoft on your own or stick it out with the now slowly loosing Microsoft enterprise. I work for a 40000+ employee company and will not convert to Vista until the jack boot thugs at microsoft decide to pull support and patches. Hopefully by then we will decide that Microsoft is not the way of the future. Yes, the admin pack is this important. No large company is going to use TS to admin their network!!! Thats rediculous.

FYI on Small Business Server you have an excellent tool called RWW (Remote Web Workplace) which lets you Remote into any desktop or server in your LAN in a secure manner. Presumably in the LH (2008) Server era there are other tools also for remote administration.

And just how many of those have switched back? Linux always seems attractive at first but the support cost is up there. There just isn't enough people out there with the knowledge to truly support it. To me that is the biggest issue with Linux, since there is no single version or leading vendor, no one knows how to get trained. This IMO is where Microsoft has won, they have a great learning division and capitalize on it big time. I'm not saying Microsoft is the only solution out there but let me know how people (true numbers) are going to get up to speed on supporting it? Without it Linux will never take a chunk of Microsoft's market share.
