This is a great WHS resource. Thanks for putting it together! There is not alot of sites like this out there for WHS – Windows Home Server.
I just completed the install of WHS on a VMWare Machine on my main Home Desktop Sony Vaio. It went well, albeit it took a very long time. I just walked away and looked in on it avery so often.
One thing I had to do though was to increased my deafult VMware HD machine size from 8 Gig to 80 gig, as WHS needs a minimum of 65 gig.
Now I just have to share some folders and test my ability to connect to it from within my home network (intranet access) and without (Internet access).
I will post my findings here if anyone is interested.
Thanks again for the great site and WHS repository!
