A pair of security-related activities happening tomorrow, April 16. Just in time for CPAs across the US to start breathing normally again, there are a pair of webcasts that you may well be interested in. First, the April 2009 edition of the Third Tier...
Last Thursday , I posted that the ISA 2006 with SBS 2008 whitepaper had been published by Microsoft. Tonight, the paper will get a very small refresh and be linked from the SBS: MVP and Community Corner at TechNet . There have been a lot of questions...
Over the last few months I've been working with Microsoft to publish a whitepaper on how to install and configure ISA 2006 in front of an SBS 2008 network. That whitepaper is finally available for download . If you got ISA 2006 as part of the SBS...
This past week, I went through the process to get the SBS 2003 Software Assurance fulfillment for a couple of my customers who are finally needing to activate those SA rights. The process was a little more cumbersome than I had hoped, and I could not...
Just a reminder that I'll be the guest joining Karl Palachuk in this weeks' SMB Conference Call . We'll be talking about (if you can believe it), the SBS 2008 Unleashed book as well as SBS 2008. Registration is still available for the call...
While December 10 is the "official" release date, I'm proud to say that Windows Small Business Server 2008 Unleashed has completed its press run and is en route to resellers as we speak. How do I know this, you ask? Simple - I've put...
If the only thing I do for the community the rest of the year is to get a few more IT Professionals to not only think seriously about SBS 2008 migrations but to actually start training on the process, I'll take it. That's how important I believe...
As part of the marketing for the upcoming Windows Small Business Server 2008 Unleashed book, I've been given the opportunity to have a blog space over at Network World for the next month. I'm excited about the opportunity to share my experiences...
One of the more powerful features of SBS 2008 is the User Role concept, based on the roles that were available in previous versions of SBS. These Roles are like account templates that can establish a common group of settings for one or more users in the...
This post will be the first in what I hope will be a short series related to issues I've encountered in my SBS2008 migration of my internal server. I'd love to say "hey, everything worked as advertised" but we're not quite that lucky...
Folks, in case you haven't heard by now (and if this is the first place you've seen/heard this, then I probably have a few other blog suggestions for you to follow), the SBS Development Team released SBS 2008 to Manufacturing today . This means...
In the last few weeks, I've had an opportunity to give a presentation about the Migration options with SBS 2008 to a couple of different groups, one in Dallas and one in Detroit. As I went through the presentations, it became clear that the majority...
Be warned, this is a long post. But the payoff at the end may well be worth the read. This past week, I had an opportunity to work on a project at Mothership Redmond. In addition to the fabulous weather (highs in the upper 70s compared to the 100s back...
The first time you boot up the system from the SBS 2008 install DVD, you'll notice a significant difference between this installation process and previous SBS installs. There is no integrated setup.. This comes partially from the image-based setup...
i've been waiting with baited breath for the opportunity to talk about the Public Preview of SBS 2008, and it went live yesterday. The SBS Blog carried the announcement from Dean Paron , and you can sign up to download and evaluate the software at...
