The admin training alone would cost more than SBS. Then there is the explaining to management about missing functionality. Perhaps Ellison's Oracle messaging application?

Ya right, and what, send mail? Come on.... We need robust groupware solution. I like the future of Linux, but send mail is weak.

Dump SBS and go to what with ZERO budget.. maybe a reference to Linux? -----Original Message----- From: Howie Pince [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2002 1:31 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: No budget backups of exchange server on a SBS box, How to??? I have been running NTBackup ON the SBS server while Exchange is running, but what good will that do if I can't restore it to anything? Dump SBS and go to what with ZERO budget? Last resort won't work either, I can't create a vailid restore server? Thanks for the ideas, but gonna need some more to get somewhere with this situation.... Howie IMHO: SOOO lame that you have to HAVE a "restore" server just to restore a DB? Suppose THAT ALSO has to have it's own License also huh???
