Small Business Server Services Configuration

Initial Setup

WARNING! Make sure both NICs are cabled into a switch, (A switch that is unconnected is ok – just make
sure the switch doesn't go into a subnet with another DHCP server on it), otherwise Windows SBS 2003 will
turn whichever port is empty off at the registry level, which is difficult to recover from.
1. Dbl click the Continue Setup icon on the desktop
2. Click Next at the Welcome to Microsoft Windows Small Business Server Setup
dialogue
3. Close down the "This computer has more than two processors" warning in the Setup
Requirements screen by checking I acknowledge all warnings and clicking Next
4. At the Company Information screen, don't bother to put in company information,
because this will have to be re-entered anyway when email is configured
5. At the Internal Domain Information screen, enter your company's external DNS Name
with .local extension
6. Accept the default for the NetBIOS name
7. Enter the Computer Name according to your internal network device nomenclature (i.e.
CompanyNameServer01). Click Next
