Re: Application Publishing Server and Exchange

Hi Cris,

Thanks for the reply. The application server (2X product) will run on the same SBS 2k3 server and yes, it will publish selected apps, for example Office 2007, to the clients' desktop via Terminal Services. It sounds as though I should still use ConnectComputer. Can you see any issues with running Outlook 2007 and Exchange in this way?

Thanks again for the reply.

When you say "application publishing server", you're talking about a Second Server running Termial Services and all users on your internal LAN are going to use that instead of their desktops?


ConnectComputer does more than configure your email profile and set the home page.

I've just completed a SBS 2003 R2 build and will begin creating user
accounts tomorrow. SBS will use an Application Publishing Server for network
applications which will include Office 2007.

Am I correct in assuming that the main reason for using ComputerConnect is
to configure user e-mail accounts in their local installation of Outlook
2003 to use Exchange and to set their default homepage to companyweb? If so,
is it important for me to use it given that Outlook 2007 will reside on the
server and I can set the default homepage through GPO?

Is there anything I should be wary of during the configuration of Outlook
2007 and Exchange given that it deviates from the standard SBS wizard based
configuration? I've not done this before using SBS only with Server 2003.
