Re: FN-FORUM FW: W2K and Advanced server

1. Haven't seen this for ages, but could be related to having ms office on
the pc with findfast or outlook journalling enabled. Also check how much
crap there is in your office recent folder.

2. First of all, check that your hardware is on the HCL--go to MS and check.
If it's not, change the components for ones that are. Then read the docs and
plan what you are going to do--special considerations since you have
winroute--dhcp, dns. It'll work quite happily with bind if you're already
running it, as long as it is a recent version. When you've planned it,
repost.
