Important Configuration Information
■
If your system has two network adapters
, you will be prompted to
specify which network adapter is connected to your local network
during setup. When you reach the setup screen titled
Local Network Adapter Information:
11
Disconnect the network adapter that is connected to your
Internet connection device.
The status changes to
Disconnected
.
22
Select the network adapter with the
Connected
status.
33
Click
NNeexxtt
to proceed with setup.
■ If you have an Internet connection device that supports DHCP or you
have another server on your network that is running the DHCP service,
follow the instructions on the screen during setup to properly configure
your DHCP settings. It is recommended that you use the DHCP service
provided by Windows Small Business Server 2003.
■ Windows Small Business Server 2003 must be installed as the single
primary domain controller on the network. You are allowed to specify
the domain name during setup, but you cannot change the domain
name after the setup is completed.
■ It is recommended that you connect your server running Windows
Small Business Server 2003 to a local network before beginning setup
so that the client computers that are on the network can be configured
automatically during setup. However, if you want to complete setup
without connecting to a local network, connect your server to a stand-
alone hub or switch to ensure that setup completes successfully.
■ To help keep your system secure, download any recommended
patches, hotfixes, and service packs by visiting the Downloads for
Windows Small Business Server 2003 website at
