    Printers need replacing.

    We have a mix of inkjets and it's costing us £100/month. So we are seeking advice to get our strategy right. We need two printers, 1 up and 1 downstairs. I assume they will be the same make. Have just installed the SBS server and have some queries: 1. Our network is wired and wireless so if we...

    creating a sub domain for Exchange

    I have a domain mydomain.org as the external domain. For those users I wish to remain on the ISP server the local users must be able to route emails there. I have tried to set up a CNAME record temp.mydomain.org on my ISP but any emails I send there are "domain not found" even if I send from...

    Why does Security say all is OK?

    I have not loaded the trial security applications (one care, etc.) that came with SBS 2008 and have not loaded any other. Why does security show no problems with this? Am I in fact OK to go? Thanks for your time.

I downloaded it to my desktop and followed the manual install instructions from MS and got "Could not open package...". However if...

    External website backup to SBS 2008.

    Our office has an external website on www.acdorchester.org.uk. This is not the SBS external domain which is the same without the .uk. Is there a way of providing a backup of the website by downloading it from it's host and storing it on the SBS server? This means management of the website can be...

    Exchange not sending to own host email

    I have configured POP3 and a send connector. I can send emails via OWA (logged in remotely) say to email@gmail.com but if I send to an email address for which Exchange is configured to download from (i.e. this organisations emails which our ISP recieves emails for) it does not send the email a...

    Trying to install Exchange 2007 SP3

    I have downloaded it and installed to stage 4 OK. At stage 5 (Install SP3) I click that and (with UAC turned off) it offers selection of features (the only one clickable is Unifying server role). Whether I selct that or not if I click Next I get a message "Please selct a server role" and cannot...

    Really foxed by certificates!

    If I use the self signed (free) one does this cover all sites on the server and all users? If I buy one in the UK I understand it only gives me hassle free if I am trying to connect mobile devices. We don't have aneed for those (yet!). So does "mobile" exclude externally connected laptops/PCs...

    Correlating Usernames with mailboxes

    Am I right in thinking that if I have existing mailboxes on our IPS server e.g. info@..... and I configure POP3 on the SBS 2008 to download emails, I can direct theses emails to a specific SBS user e.g. fred.miles? I.e. I do not have to have the same email username as the SBS username (have not...

    Exchange and POP'ed emails

    Is it possible to have OUTLOOK doing Out-of-office messages in this situation? I know that if one is doing webmail this is not possible unless the on-line Exchange facility is purchased. Thanks for your time.

    Starting again to get aprtitioning right!

    Following my post about having installed and ended up with one mammoth partition, I have decided to reinstall. I will have to load my RAID 1 driver software (soft Raid) but I've hopefully got that sorted. My question is: Given that I have 1TByte of storage and in that I want to have a backup...

    Needing a Floppy to get drivers installed!

    I have a HP proliant Ml115 G5. Supposedly OK for 2008. I am configuring RAID 1 and have setup the BIOS to do this, that seems OK. BUT, I need the software to run this type of RAID control (not a separate board). I loaded the Windows disc and got to the part where it showed just one drive (I...

    Connecting Workgroup clients

    I do not quite understand how a client with an admin user (used only for configuring the PC) and a normal user (used for day2day work and thus all the files and settings) gets treated when added to the domain. Do I need to configure the client as a single user (and an admin account) first...

    Considering Enterprise 11.0

    I have had endpoint 11 before for clients only and it seemed to slow them down significantly. Now I have a server (SBS2008) I will need a server A/V which of course this product does. I am following this because I can get 25 licenses for £70 which seems good value. Not being really experienced...

    Fixed IP address

    Does having a fixed IP (internet) broadband address supplied by ISP make a network more susceptible than the usual transient one? Thanks for your time.

    Virtual working from the start (or not)

    If I configure a second server or I'm thinking of running Windows 7 for a User in our SBS server I think I need VM-Ware installed first (or maybe SBS comes with virtual mode). Should I start from the word go (before I install the server) or can I go virtual later? Thanks for your time.
