Re: where is the outlook 2003 product key on the SBS2003 R2 DVD

If you had your DNS and DHCP set up properly on the server, you would not be
getting that error message.

Post an "ipconfig /all" from your server and a workstation and I can tell if
you have it set up correctly.

Okay thanks for all of the input....

I did make alot of progress. However, I couldn't get the client to
connect
to the server through the "http://sbs/connectcomputer"; method. I did,
however get connected to the DC through the network setup wizard on the
client. When it logged onto the domain, the client had an icon to
"install
outlook". When I clicked on it, it came up with the product key window.
What did I do wrong?

A little background is this...

I'm using virtual pc 2007 for both the server and the client. for the
first
time EVER, I got the internet to work on the server with 2 NIC's after
running CEICW. I added the client PC and the user using the wizards.
when I
did this... http://sbs/connectcomputer , i got an error something to the
effect of set DNS in the router to the ip of the server, so I chose to
join
the domain using the clients network wizard. This is just a lab setup and
I
don't want to change router to do DNS at this point. I'm just trying to
get
through all of these wizards and get a feel for what a SBS2003 properly
installed is like.

I am very inpressed that when the clients connect, software can be
installed
automatically. I didn't know that.

My main push is I have one of these boxes going into a 15 client network
next week and would like to impress my customer. I've installed 3 other
SBS
servers this year and the results were lame. He now has a XP peer network
and has finally opted to get a server. I also have a service contract
with
our local county and one of my goals in 2007 is to get the 70-282
certificate. the training is led by microsoft and is on jan 12. I'm
trying
over this christmas break to get a better foundation on this.

As others has often said, I don't have any problems installing and
configuring server 2003, just these SBS servers.

Thanks again for all of the input.

Hi Jim.

Thank you for posting here.

From the description, I understand you want to install only outlook 2003
SP2 on your computer and want to know where the product key is on your
SBS2003 R2 DVD. If I am off base, please don't hesitate to let me know.

Base on my knowledge, the only way to install Outlook 2003 SP2 on a
single
computer from SBS 2003 R2 DVD is through deployment of the SBS server. I
completed understand your situation, but windows SBS 2003 R2 is designed
for a business solution, not for personal need. The goal of design is
provide a convenient way for a business environment. We don't have a
method
to install Outlook 2003 SP2 in a separate computer without any Server
involved, so we don¡¯t provide Outlook 2003 product key on the DVD.

I appreciate your understanding, I am happy to be of assistance to you
and
look forward to your reply.

Have a nice day!

Best regards,

Inn Jin (MSFT)
