August 3, 200224 yr Author You have to be a Microsoft Beta tester to get this.J/K!!http://www.microsoft.com/windows.netserver...ew/default.mspx
August 3, 200224 yr I'm downloading this as I speak (well...type..but anyway). Currently at 50%. When I get it installed and running I'll post some screen shots.
August 6, 200224 yr Aaron,So did you register yourself with M$ as a beta tester or use someone else login id?I got mine through our company MSDN subscription, its not worth downloading unless you are going to use the software in a proper corporate environment. We setup a Compaq Proliant with .NET Standard we got about 50 users on it, seems to work well although there are a few issues which we had to report to M$.HM
August 6, 200224 yr Author Hudson - Its from the Customer Preview Program, free to sign up to.http://www.microsoft.com/windows.netserver...ew/default.mspxI know its mainly for a corporate environment, but isn't it true that the IIS webserver in Windows XP only allows 10 concurrent connections? So its probably better to get .NET Webserver/Standard Server
August 6, 200224 yr Author Btw, here's a screenie of .NET RC1, along with Windows Media Player Corona 9 and MSN Messenger 5:Click on above thumbnail to enlarge
August 6, 200224 yr Point taken Aaron, you're right about the 10 connections. Our Compaq server is still on Beta3 but will take the plunge and move to RC1 at somepoint.Don't you think it is easier for setting up services like website, intranet, DNS and stuff with the new wizards.I quite like it.Thanks,Mark
August 6, 200224 yr Author Yep, the wizards are good, nice and easy. Shame that .NET has no IRC Server or Newsgroup Server support (which Unix/Linux has)
August 6, 200224 yr You never know something might come along to support new servers. I doubt that they will do anything for NIC but who knows.
