Problems Installing WHS 2011 Connector Software?

Microsoft have released a Find My Server Wizard tool which helps you find your WHS 2011 server on the network. Ideal if you are having problems finding your server using http://<ServerName>/connect , enabling you to install the connector software:

“If you type http://<ServerName>/connect in the address bar of your web browser (where <ServerName> is the name of your server) and the server is not found, use this tool to help you find the server. When you download and run the tool, it locates the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) beacon on the server, and then opens the server Connect site.”

As well as supporting WHS 2011, the tool also supports Windows Small Business Server 2011 Essentials and Windows Storage Server 2008 R2 Essentials.

You can find the Find My Server Wizard download here.

Thanks to reader Brian Duncan on informing us of this tool.
