Hey... it's 14 not 17...  ;-)

Seriously, it depends on how you need to restore and what you are restoring.. touch Exchange and you need to touch IIS because of the interaction of OWA et al..

The trick is understanding what has been thrashed and what you need to restore them. If totally restoring from scratch.. you just follow the white paper and let the restore/NTbackup software lay it down as it needs.

Most of the time we flatten way too fast because we don't understand that the real cause of an issue is something else and flattening it won't help. We do have some uniqueness in our AD structure.. but fire up the normal AD tools and it's still active directory.

Restoring a box with a single function versus restoring your SBS box that does 17 things is wildly different. To restore your SBS box not only do I have to have an understanding of those 17 technologies, but, I also have to be careful to restore them in the correct order.

I would argue (okay so I'm biased) that if your tech couldn't restore a
SBS box.. then maybe they can't/shouldn't be tasked with restoring your
data center?

When you say you would like to see a response?  What do you mean?

ISA on a SBS box is one of those abnormalities... right now of the few
of us who buy premium and stick ISA on the box, we typically have a
firewall in front of our boses.  If most of us had our way, that's the
one piece of software we'd like to swing off to another box (real or
virtual).

It'd be nice to see a response to Jim's comment.

And I am often warming to the idea of Exchange on a GC concept for
some situations.  The difficulty with trouble shooting and recovery
aside of course.
