+ I ran a full backup with system state and saved it to a remote share located on a Windows Server 2003 machine. I'm tempted to call out 2008 and say that it sucks, yet, I'm sure that there's something I'm screwing up with the procedure.

If I get this working in the short timespan I've got, I now have zero problems with loading it as the primary file servers! And we'll also know that the backup systems work! Windows Server 2008 allows for a full system backup, as well as system state.ДЇantastic!, I think to myself. I want to be able to load a system from scratch onto a blank machine from that backup. I suppose the same can be said for 2008, however, I've yet to figure out what the problem is. My test network had the domain controllers built from the NTBackup commands, and it worked rather well when you knew what you were doing. Now, as much of a pain in the ass NTBackup was, it still worked. Today was spent wrestling with the built-in functionality of Windows Server 2008 and backing itself up. There's an old adage in IT: It's not the backups that are the problem, it's restoring them.

If anyone's ever looking to do what I've done, this is very handy. It varied a bit from my configuration, but, it's not hard to modify. This is a very handy guide for creating a software RAID1 on the drives. I've spent a good portion of the day installing Debian, trying out some things, screwing up the file system or the partitions, when I finally came across this: This is going to be fun.ДЄbit IC7 motherboard, 2 gigs of PC2700 DDR, and 2x80gb SATA drives to be configured in RAID1 format.

So, using his hardware, we're going to build a Debian Linux box. He asked me to do this for a variety of reasons: However, the reason for this came about when a friend of mine asked me to host a game server for his game. So, for the time being, my domain controller plans are on hold until those commence. My brother and I are going to redesign our network, and have a joint operation domain. I'm now involved in a very interesting situation here in my home.
