Over the next 6 months we will be starting to prepare to move our domain across to 2008 server and exchange 2007.
A Little slack I know but I have just installed 2008 in a test environment and having a play with it. First impressions are good, installation was nice and easy and the new roles fairly straight forward.
Forgot to disable IPv6 so got an error running DC promo as it was set to DHCP (but its fine to continue), this also gave me a slight DNS error when doing a NSLOOKUP. Disabling IPv6 stopped all error as we have no intention of using IPv6 anytime soon.
I’m also a little disappointed that the backup still has no support for DAT tape drives, I’m sure this is for some legal reason, but it would have been very handy not to install any 3rd party backup software as my current backup software does not support 2008 server.
Next up to install exchange 2007 on a separate box…
