SharePoint Server 2007 SP2 bug
Today I was looking to do updates on our SharePoint 2007 Server and saw that Service Pack 2 was out. At the same time, I saw there was a bug with it as well. Something with the licensing gets screwed up and you have to re-enter your licensing info. Doesn't sound like a major bug, but a bug never the less. I think I will wait until they have a fix out, who knows what other little gotchas are sitting around. Here is the link from the SharePoint blog with more detailed info and how to fix the licensing bug (or workaround).
FreeNAS Setup for my Home Environment
I have been meaning to setup a FreeNAS server for awhile now, actually a real long time. I have some older hardware just laying around, with a 200gig internal SATA drive, and USB ATA storage array (holds up to 4 ATA drives). The storage array is hold about 800+gigs of space, only about a quarter used. Install took about 15 minutes to get up and going. Adding the drives were a snap. I just imported my USB array and can now map to it via NFS. The internal drive I thought I would setup as iSCSI. I really like how that is working out. I have my Windows 2003 and 2008 servers attaching to it, and it is really fast. I am pretty impressed the speed they are attaching at while being virtual and only going over my 100MB network. I also plan on setting up my Vista machines and laptop access so I can do quick transfers on the fly when needed. Here is a good write up on how to setup the iSCSI services within FreeNAS. I may also setup my VMware ESXi environment to take advantage of the iSCSI as well if I get any more spare drives. If you have the hardware and the need for extra storage space, FreeNAS is a way to go (http://www.freenas.org).
Using FOG to deploy server images in VMware ESXi
A long while ago I was taking a look at an open source application called FOG to look at a method of quickly deploying server images at that time, our MS Virtual Server environment. Flash forward to now, I got some time in the office to look at this again, but now we are using VMware ESXi (until we get our Enterprise licensing this summer sometime). This will probably become obsolete when we get the Enterprise version, but I also wanted to look at this as a solution for my home network as I usually like to get something built on the fly and not have to invest a lot of time into the build.
