Introduction

This blog is a simple list of changes I make to keep a Microsoft Small Business Server 2008 and accompanying network up and running. While I do not consider Microsoft, nor any of their software to be actually “stupid”, anyone who has ever worked on anything Microsoft certainly understand the ease with which a person can break their functionality. This is my specialty. Through out this blog I will document many system changes both custom and necessary out of the box changes. It will include OS, software, hardware, and workstation changes. These changes should and will encompass a wide variety of topics to include:

  • DNS
  • DHCP
  • Active Directory
  • Exchange 2007
  • WSUS
  • Windows Backup
  • WSS 3.0 on IIS 7.0
  • Sharepoint Customization
  • SQL Server Express 2005
  • Windows 7, Vista, and XP
  • Network peripherals such as printers, routers, and switches

    Not only will these posts document my troubleshoot and error correcting process, but they will provide links to other sites with answers, or useful posts on help forums. while I do not promise that any of these posts will be accurate, I can assure you that to the best of my ability I am solving common and complex errors that might affect any user of any Microsoft product.Please allow credit where credit is due.
