Re: Vista and Fax with SBS 2000



Well Neil, don't think you can blame this on Microsoft. Mainstream support for Windows 2000 and Exchange 2000 ended sometime ago. There was never any plan to provide Vista Support for SBS 2000. You can join the Vista client to the domain manually, but you should not expect Fax client driver, or the Proxy Client if you're running Proxy 2.0 or the Firewall Client if you are running ISA 2000

Support was released for SBS 2003 and Vista a couple of weeks ago.

Well I have just spent a day testing MS Vista Business attaching to our
SBS2000 server.

1) getting occasional network errors when using Outlook XP !!!! Never had
the problem before with Windows XP - even had an error when I backed up to a
PST file (at the very end of the creation) then the problem went away

2) Not hing I do can get the Vista Client to talk to the Fax server - again
never a problem with windows XP

3) This may have something to do with Adobe Reader 8.0 but my PDF's now
print with fonts missing !!!!!! - I have an identical system with XP and
Adobe reader 8.0 and it prints perfectly. This is a very serious issue -
could it be the printer driver being incompatable with Vista ??

All updates are done - come on Microsoft, this is unforgivable !
