There is quite a bit more stuff I have to do this weekend because of SBS. The majority of the problem is because of the inability to join an existing domain. Its probably adding at least 20% time to the project. Also a little bit undoing some of the preinstalled settings/programs.

Why would you want to join it to an existing domain? If it is replacing an existing domain, then there are options to upgrade existing hardware or migrate the existing domain to the SBS03 domain.

Its the quickest way. Otherwise your left with a different domain. LOL. Upgrade existing hardware. It was a severly failing PII350. They are lucky I got the data off of it. Someone broke the mirror 2 weeks ago because it was the only way to keep it stable. I also had problems getting ADMT working because SBS also does not allow trusts :mad: It took me about 45 minutes of manual configuration to get it to work.

That is the single biggest thing I hate about SBS. Everything else is fine but I hate the fact that you can't create a trust. I've been in numerous situations where it would make an upgrade or migration much much easier.

Ah yes...... More greatness of the SBS package.

Update:

Everything is running fine to date. Put the first SBSo3 proposal on the table this evening. Fingers crossed :)
