Is your SBS Environment Vista, Outlook 2007, WSS 3.0, and "DST" Ready?

Over the last couple of months, some new products have been made available and changes to the way we tell time in the U.S. has been updated.

I'm not sure whether or not all of you have seen the following links but I wanted to make sure that your SBS environment is ready for the changes that you'll need to be prepared for.   So here they are compiled for your pleasure.  Have fun :)

If you are planning to install Vista and/or Outlook 2007, take a look at the following link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/926505

You've also heard that there are hundreds of new policy settings in Vista that you won't find on your server.  That's because you have to manage Vista policies from a Vista client.  If you're wondering how to get the new Vista templates up to your server for replication in a multi DC environment, click here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929841/en-us

During our previous TS2 events as well as our launch events, we showed you some of the new enhancements that Windows Sharepoint Services 3.0 (WSS 3.0) brings to the table.  We also mentioned that it wasn't going to be a straight forward upgrade in an SBS environment.  Here's what you're going to have to do: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=0daafc81-efff-4f5b-a28a-8265f1e99f5b&displaylang=en

With changes to Daylight Savings, you'll need to adjust more than just your alarm clocks :)  Check out http://www.microsoft.com/dst as a starting point or follow the following link for some good SBS related info on DST: http://blogs.technet.com/sbs/archive/2007/02/13/extended-daylight-saving-time-sbs-2003-and-you.aspx
