This site is my way to share my views and general business and IT information with you about Microsoft, IT solutions for ISVs, technologists and businesses, large and small.  
installing sbs and other documents you should always have a recap of

None of this is necessarily new information, but since many of the questions I get asked about on the blog site relate to documentation, here are my links to save from Microsoft on SBS.  When people ask me "How do I ...." and then anything from install WSS v3 without frying the box to install SBS to in an existing domain.

For starters I ask people to look at this link here for all the important docs.

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sbs/2003/default.mspx

Sometimes the search only throws up R2 versions of docs and I think the SP1 versions are still good, especially for the setup, installation and migration scenarios:

Have you ever had a backup fail, or achvesync or one of a miriad of other errors and wanted somewhere to look that was specific to SBS, then this link is for you http://download.microsoft.com/download/5/6/1/561c9fd7-0e27-4525-94ec-4d2d38f61aa3/TSHT_SBS.htm.  It covers:

    • Troubleshooting Server Setup
    • Troubleshooting Users and Groups
    • Troubleshooting Client Computers
    • Troubleshooting Mobile Devices
    • Troubleshooting E-mail
    • Troubleshooting Monitoring
    • Troubleshooting Backup and Restore
    • Troubleshooting Internet Access
    • Troubleshooting Your Intranet
    • Troubleshooting Shared Network Resources
    • Troubleshooting Remote Connections
    • Troubleshooting Client Computer Licensing

This page also points you to wards the SBS 2003 Support Page (Solutions Center) which is always worth knowing - http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/ph/3208 and the RSS feed (which almost always has nothing in it) of http://support.microsoft.com/common/rss.aspx?rssid=3208.  Having said that, the SBS Documentation RSS feed and blog is very much worth knowing about and it is at http://blogs.msdn.com/sbsdocsteam/archive/2006/10/26/meet-the-sbs-docs-team.aspx
