We have decided to use Microsoft Server 2008 R2 for our servers.  We were going to use Exchange Server 2007 but I’m having MAJOR issues getting it to install.  I’m not sure if its a compatibility issue with Server 08 R2 or if it’s a problem with VMWare 7.  I’m going to try to install Exchange Server 2010 and see if that goes a little smoother.  We may be switching to Server 2010.  Also, to make one of the instructors happy, we have decided to configure BIND DNS instead of Microsoft’s DDNS.  We may even get crazy and make our web server Linux based and make the sample webpage using Fedora 11 and WordPress.  I enjoyed working with Linux and spent half my time in class helping everyone else so it looks like I get to go a few more rounds with SAMBA.  WOOHOO!!

Again, wish me luck (I’m seriously going to need all I can get).

**Update**

I created a new page just for the posts about this Capstone project.  All future updates will be there.

**ANOTHER UPDATE**

I can’t post directly to a new page.  It seems all but one page in a blog are static.  So I have created a category called Capstone and deleted the page called Capstone.  If you wish to follow along with my progress please click that category.  Sorry for the confusion, but I’m a newbie at this.
