You cant do all that.

It depends on your setup. PC's dont even have to be a member of the domain to register themselves in DNS. If you are runing DHCP the DHCP server will register those computers in DNS. It is a good idea because trying to maintain an up to date INTERNAL DNS is a pain.

Have to backup and restore

SUS and WSUS and SMS

Not a good idea though from a management standpoint. What I would do is run both MS SQL and MySQL in different virtual machines on this new server. This will allow you to perform maintenance and testing on one without affecting the other.

how did it not get installed in the first place with xp? It is normally installed by default.

AIW has a tv tuner built into it.

run the administrative install to create the install point by running setup /a. You can also use this installation point to push out office with gpos.

Sounds like the data may not be getting routed correctly back to you on the remote side.
-
Do not install it on a DC. It is much better from a recovery perspective to install it on a second box or in a virtual machine running on that dc.
-
Create an image of your perfect set up using Acronis then.
-
Install SP2. There are many security fixes that make everything just safer and Sp2 is no slower than SP0

1. Yes 2. No

Use autoit to watch for that window and click it when it pops up. Some apps cannot be installed during gui based setup and must be installed from within Windows, namely office.

just trying to help.
-
try using nLite to integrate them.

Just use the mst file to setup a default email account. In it use %USERNAME% for the username and ANY of your exchange servers for the exchange server, if its not the right one the user is on it will automatically get redirected.

What do you need to do?
-
no its not even close. To start a virtual machine VMware allocates whatever amount you chose to give the guest OS from your current physical RAM. If you machine only has 246(?) MB of ram, there is no way to start up anything but a DOS host OS without running out of memory.
-
Buy more ram
-
read the f*cking manual

Why would you want to ruin a server like that?
-
You can do this if you deploy Outlook using a transform file. Using the office resource kit, you can setup the installation to automatically configure their Outlook account.

98 does not have better hardware support. Memory management in the 9x series just plain sucks. If you get hit by viruses more often than not its your own fault for not keeping the system updated properly. Windows XP will be any slower than XP with that configuration. Who really needs DOS support anymore? Having one operating system lie on top of another is just not smart. Windows 98 is actually more vulnerable to viruses because programs can easily get DIRECT access to hardware. Operating systems after 2000 do not let software interact with hardware directly. If you want less bloat in Windows use nlite and disable services that you do not need. nLite makes it REAL easy to get rid of anything that you do not want. Also, XP is a hell of a lot more stable than 98. You have to really TRY to kill XP to the point where it doesnt function. Hell its a PITA to get it to blue screen. Its easy to do on 98 with a program having an errant pointer or such. I still cannot believe someone saying 98 is better than XP.
