SBS 2008 Migration - Replication Problem

Whilst migrating a customers SBS 2003 server to SBS 2008, I was getting a message saying “Active Directory replication is taking longer than expected”.  I clicked “Wait…” a couple of times, but nothing was happening.

April 2010 Update

April has been another busy month here at SkiptonSystems!

I have been tasked with setting up a Windows 2003 server, which is going to run as a file server as well as a web server for a company intranet.  The intranet currently runs externally on PHP/mySQL.  This is now going to be moved into the office.  Had the company not requested Windows, this would [...]
