RE: Help ----------------- Server 2003 Setup.....!

I will continue to read this forum. Are you wanting me to connect to the
server and set this up for you? If so, I have an intern that needs to learn
how to setup his first server where I will supervise him. Let me know if you
are interested. We can use Session Manager where you can also see what's
going on.

Scott,

You have two options:
1. If you decide to go without a domain controller
a. then you will need to do all your configuration for RDP in computer
management.
b. Leave the router to do the DHCP
c. You will probably be setup as a Peer to Peer network.
2. With a domain controller
a. Setup your DNS, DHCP, WINS, VPN, TS

In the past, I have always preferred to go with a domain controller. Things
you should think about is, research:
1. Forest Prep and domain prep.
2. dcpromo.

Let me know what route you would like to go and maybe I will be able to
assist you with it.

Trimelater,

The OS will be win server2003 standard R@ edition

I do not plain on setting up Exchange

Yes, you are correct, I have already configured the router to allow TS on
port 3389

My question about DHCP and DNS is, which is better - to have the router serve dhcp or the server? We will have a max of 10 users

Do I need to set the server up as a domain server, currently it set not as a
domain server

Scott,

That is a lot of work just to setup a domain controller and RDP. If you
don't have a lot of experiences, you may want to contact a local network
administrator even though you stated your boss is really cheap.

1. Are you going to be running SBS 2003?
2. Do you plan to setup Exchange?
3. Do you know which port to open for RDP? Should be 3389.
4. Setting up a wireless router should not be difficult since you will not
be using WEP.
