Re: Migration SBS 2003 -> SBS 2008

Hello Mattie,

The ip range in the book is an example, you can use your own ip address scheme
as you need. Just make sure to use no ip address double.

As SBS is always special please refer to one of the following newsgroups
or forums:
http://www.sbs2008.com/

Best regards

Hi Meinolf,

I just wanted to point out that the SBS wizards require a subnet of only a
/24 (255.255.255.0) subnet, or the wizards don't work properly if any other
subnet is selected due to some sort of limitation. So if the subnet Mattie
picks for the 172.16.100.x range is 172.16/12 or 255.240.0.0, it will not
work. You can run the wizard using a 255.255.255.0 mask, but after the
wizard is done, you can change it to whatever you like, but each time the
wizard is run, it must be a /24.

More info can be found by Mattie posting to the SBS newsgroups.
