Thanks for the response.
The system is intended to be used:
a) as a company wide portal.
b) to provide basic DM facilities for each department - with task lists and
discussion boards for each client.
The client wants the advanced search facilities procided by SPPS 2003.
Would there be any advantage/disadvantage in creating a new virtual server
with a portal for each department? I'm thinking that having a separate
portal/virtual server for each department would allow me to better control
the security and perform backups of individual department sites.
