Inside SBS Podcast Episode #19 - Getting Started with SBS
This episode, we decided to break with our standard format and bring a guest online for the podcast. Pamela Cassoy, an SBS consultant, joins us for a discussion about her experiences starting out with SBS deployments. Pamela was gracious enough to describe a number of hurdles she overcame in getting her first SBS installs in place. We cover a lot of ground in this episode - troubleshooting, best practices, our experience with broken servers, and much more. Please join us for another foray in to the multi-faceted world of Small Business Server support.
