Have to say, I am very satisfied with SBS Essentials -- after going through much sturm und drang with Bert and Sandeep. I was using plain old windows 7 as the server on my office desktop, and I was actually very happy with that.
This new setup seems a lot more stable, but maybe I'm just fooling myself?
It is also faster, since the main drive is SSD.
I use Remote Desktop to my personal office machine to get to the office system from the outside-- it is very fast, and a lot more visually appealing than Logmein, which I also use sometimes. It has the advantage that you can use DragonNaturallySpeaking on the remote machine without having to buy the medical version.
I have yet to get Remote Web to work on the server, even though the router has the port forwarded and everything seems to be in order. Sandeep, Bert -- what is the advantage of the Remote Web Access over RD protocol? What I have seems to work just fine. I don't want to buy a new router unless there is something exceptional that I am missing.
