Deployment of Small Business Server 2008

Introduction

For this week, I am going to deploy a Small Business Server 2008, that would be suitable for a "standard" business.

Just to give me some kind of aim, I will put up these demands for myself:

The company got 15 computers. They require logins that goes through an exchange server. As any normal company, they also require emails, a website, personal login and a means of getting their files stored remotely on the server. A VPN connection for the workers as well as a means to manage the server remotely could also be mandatory.

Limitations

Windows Small Business Server 2008 got certain restrictions. This is because Microsoft wanted this to fit, as the name says, a small business so they put in some limitations to make the server operating system cheaper. Most business will not affected by these limitations. A lot of the limitations, like specific amount of space for emails, can be managed by implanting business policies - such as making sure you keep a tidy email account.
