The set computer name doesn't appear to work on my side. I've got almost everything else working. It's a nice beast, but a pain at the same time. I'm curious how the unix fanboys will react :)

Fair point Thomas, I have renamed the article and thanks for the suggestion

having reviewed the set computername section, I have discovered that I did miss out two switches.. I have amended the post and it now works. Thanks for your feedback Gazanga.. :)

Hello,

I'm the writer who owns documenting Server Core installations of WS08 and WS08R2. In case you aren't aware of it, you can get the Step-by-Step Guide here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=518d870c-fa3e-4f6a-97f5-acaf31de6dce&DisplayLang=en

The SxS Guide includes a complete list of tasks and the commands to do them. I'm currently updating it to include R2 content as well.

In addition, I'm working on a job aid. This downloadable, printable, foldable document would include the most-needed commands, with space for you to add your own deployment-specific content as needed. This list is great info to help me figure out what to include--if you all would like to cast your votes for particular must-have tasks or commands in the comments here, I would find that priceless.

I could also use some feedback on what file format would work best for you all for the job aid. PDF?

thanks,

J.O.
