    - SSL and Virtual Servers Ok â?? so this really sucks. We are building a medium server farm, 2 web nodes behind a network load balancer, 2 clustered servers connected to a power vault and an index/job server. We were hoping to offer SharePoint as a service to customers. Our customers need SSL and here is the rub. Microsoft has told us that they do not support binding IP addresses to virtual server names. Guess what that means? We can only set up one SSL site per web server. These customers want their own DNS name with SSL but we would have to purchase a separate server for each SSL site. We could use virtual servers but that seems like adding a whole extra layer of complexity to an already complex system. The funny thing, we were ready to go production with this system until Microsoft told us the bad news. The system works binding IPâ??s to virtual servers. MS told us there were known issues with this setup (Front page being one) and if we had problems, they would not support us. Has any one else had this problem and if so, what did you?

I would like to configure Sharepoint to index a lot of Word file that are located in a shared folder in a network drive. How can I define that path in my SPS 2003 ?

    - Survey - Cross Reference with Active Directory Platform: SPS 2003, Windows 2003, SQL Server, Active Directory Integrated using Windows Authentication I've put out a survey to our users and, since we're tied to AD, it'll pull in their display name when they submit the survey results; however, is there a way I can pull out other information, such as office or department? I'm expecting hundreds of results for this survey and do not want to have to manually cross-reference these individuals with their location since that information is already in AD. If nothing else, perhaps a hidden field that pumps into the survey database results. In a perfect world, when a contributor exports the survey to excel, it will display the ID, the Created By (pulled from Active Directory's display name), and the Department (pulled from AD), then continue on with the survey results. If this isn't possible--how are companies surveying large amounts of users and grouping them? I have horrid fears that I'll end up writing a WSH to read the Excel file and read AD to populate a 2nd spreadsheet--that's not automated and I do _not_ want to explain how to do that to my boss.

    - How to reconnect to my portal? I have just uninstalled SPS, WSS, and IIS. Then I reinstalled IIS (Asp.net, and BTI), and SPS2003. It started me off configuring the server, which I think went OK. However, when I went to extend and create a portal, giving letting it use the default config database, and the old content database name, it threw an error saying the config database said it was already extended. What should I be doing to reconnect? Give it a new config database name, and the old content database name? Since I first posted that question in another newsgroup, I detached the config database, gave it a non-standard name for the config database, and successfully extended the site. Now it is asking me to select a template for the site. I want to connect to existing content instead. How do I do that? Hollis D.

    - Setting Default Language to UK English Hi all, Here in the UK, we would like all sites to be created with the default locale of 2057 UK english - mainly for the date format - DD/MM/YYYY At the moment, it seems as the locale info has to be changed after the user has created the site. I notice you can configure the default time zone for a virtual server but not the locale. I have also noticed the stored procedure proc_CreateSite which performs the site creation process and accepts language and locale as parameters. my question is that if I alter the sp so that it aways enters the local value of2057 within the store procedure. Then take a copy of all the 1033 folders and named them 2057 instead. Now, whenever I create a site it is in the expected UK English format - we are never going to willingly create a site in the 1033 locale. btw, updating the webs table and setting 2057 as the locale for all existing sites had the wonderful effect of converting them all to display dates in the UK format. is this a bad thing to do? will this go horribly wrong at some point? Assuming the answer is yes and YES, what is the correct way to set the default locale for all sites? Thanks in advance, Tony Tag: disconnecting from configuration database Tag: 53707

    - Automated Upload of Documents to SPS 2003 Good Day We have an automated process whereby reports are created by a reporting system every night. These reports are dumped / written onto a network share in our organization. Sometimes there is only 1 report but at times there can be up to 50 reports. These reports are now required to be added to a document library in Sharepoint. What we are looking for is a tool which can automate the process of taking the document(s) from the network share and automatically uploading them to Sharepoint, into a document library and using the document name as the document title. At the moment, a user will have to map to the share and add each document manually before the next day, as on the next day the network share is cleaned out by the reporting tool and new reports are generated. Can this automation of document uploading be done and if so, how?

    - Document Managment in Portal Areas Here is a quick question I hope the veterans can answer. I want to migrate documents from the filesystem to a document library in an Area in SPS 2003. I would like to preserve the file date on the filesystem as the modified property. When I upload a document, it always puts the current date/time in as default. Are there tools out there that will handle this for me? Can I controls this programmatically? Thanks Tag: disconnecting from configuration database Tag: 53621

    - copy mails in public folders hi, how can i automate copying of mails in public folders to sharepoint Shared Documents ? thanks Tag: disconnecting from configuration database Tag: 53613

Hi, we plan to move our SQL databases to new SQL instance.

For this migration effort, before we disconnect each of our medium server
farm servers from configuration database, do we have to remove that server
from component roles (change component settings page).
Or, Just disconnect each server in farm from configuration database and
reconnect to existing database (i.e., same database moved to new SQL Server)
would work without any issues???

Or Am I completely wrong on moving databases.

Yes, before you disconnect a server from a configuration database, the
server has to be removed from all its farm roles.
