Sharepoint - But ours installs "automagically"
[um... well.. it does if
we have the revised CDroms otherwise install the machine, let it fail
and then
apply this patch...
don't ask.. leave it to the newbie SBSer, Sharepoint to screw up ;-)
Works like a champ and hey,

| Terminal Server in
application mode |
okay... yeah they can do
this |
Nope we can't BUT we can set up a Windows

Windows server licenses. Besides it was never a good idea to do TS
in app mode on our Domain Controllers anyway |
See the notes on Standard |

Yes, that's now called Remote desktop to

Nope, no can do, we must be all on this
one box |
| Trusts to other domains |
Yeah, they can do that |
No, we cannot but we do have the
ability to do a Active Directory migration between the two boxes to get
the data from the old server box to
this new one. After 14 days the connection must be broken otherwise the new box will complain |
