Exchange 2003

Today our Exchange 2003 Server of the College O.L.V. van Deinsbeke in Zottegem (Belgium) is up-and-running for 60 days. In fact, the last downtime was because there was a power failure in the serverroom. The server is up-and-running since september last year running Windows Server 2003, Exchange 2003, SQL 2000, IIS 6.0, ASP.NET and Windows SharePoint Service. Let's try to double this uptime :-) Oh yes, last remark, the servers in that particular school have funny names: nero (the internet connection server), plato (the file server), einstein (the domain controller) and socrates (mail- and webserver).Del.icio.us | Digg It | Technorati | Blinklist | Furl | reddit | DotNetKicks

Upgraded to DotText v0.95

I just upgraded the blogs.bartdesmet.net website with the latest release of DotText. There were a few issues to get the thing to work:

  • You should map the .* extension to the ISAPI of ASP.NET in the IIS configuration to support multiple blogs on your machine ("community" mode)
  • Backup the old site!!!
  • Copy the new bits of v0.95 to the web folder
  • Update web.config (blog.config has gone) and make sure the HTTP Handlers are correct!!! (http://dottextwiki.scottwater.com/default.aspx/Dottext.MultipleBlogRegex)

More info on http://dottextwiki.scottwater.com/default.aspx/Dottext.ONinetyFiveUpgrade.

Enjoy it!

New team members on SchoolServer project

Today one of our new team members on the Microsoft SchoolServer project at Microsoft Belux started to develop the ASP.NET driven management tools. Welcome Gill! A few weeks ago another member, Geoffrey, joined the club. He'll be responsible for the infrastructure part of the solution. Welcome too, Geoffrey! I believe the SchoolServer software will be a great tool to help the network administrators in schools (most of them being 'simple teachers') to manage an infrastructure built on Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, and older client-systems therefore giving those people more time for the tasks their supposed to do (teaching courses).Del.icio.us | Digg It | Technorati | Blinklist | Furl | reddit | DotNetKicks
