Setting Up Windows Home Server ‘Vail’


Get the beta version of Vail is simple if you already use Windows Connect (http://connect.microsoft. Com home server / Windows). Otherwise, you must create an account.

The beta version is in the form of a downloadable ISO, so you'll burn a DVD from ISO, or install it on a USB memory Speedlight using Microsoft Windows 7 USB DVDto tool (http://store.microsoft.com/help/ISOtool). Since no optical drive is included in this release, the configuration was run from a USB flash drive 8 GB of flash.

Basic installation took place without incident, but when the system reboots WHS office for updates, a strange problem arose. Vail had no drivers for the integrated Intel Gigabit Ethernet hardware. It does not recognize Atheros Wi-Fi adapter, but could not connect to my home network when security is enabled.

Instead of asking for a password (for Wi-Fi) or ask the hard disk (for port gigabit), the system displays a screen that says no network connection available. The only option was to "Reboot". If you reboot, you will leave the words same results other hand, in an infinite loop! Obviously, this is a mistake, but hey, this is beta software, right?

Way to avoid this error is to press Ctrl-Alt-Del when the system searches the network (but before the "network not found" window will open). The right selection key, kill the process that checks for updates and then install the driver manually.

Installing the Connector software for Individual users is easier than in the original version of WHS. No need to copy the application on a CD or USB, or manually, go to server to download it.

The Vail Dashboard is more user-friendly, and actually has useful built-in help and walk-throughs.


Instead, open a browser and type the name of http://server / connect, where the server name is the name you gave to the server during installation. Then you can download and install the WHS connector on the target system. Note that a version of the connector can be downloaded for Mac OS X and Windows.

If you have a computer set to automatically start Windows, install the WHS Connector want to disable this function. Until WHS has begun, and all passwords are set consistently, you must manually log in as this is a home server, Business Server, we recommend you log in the system, and an account! Sign in to your WHS the same. When the user names and passwords are created and are the same, you can re-enable automatic login to the computer.
