I'm having difficulty mapping a WebDAV network location within Windows Explorer, to my local SDL Tridion 2011 SP1 website. I'm working on the CME server, which is running on Windows 2008 R2. I don't have office tools installed on the machine to try and test the WebDAV connection, is there something else I need?
You probably need to install the Desktop Experience feature to make this work from the server. See http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc772567.aspx for details
Did installation of the Desktop Experience work?
I can connect through Word but not through mapped drive (and not through Content Porter)
that said we had to change the MTSUser (machine) password (had changed the COM+ login) but as I see we have a number of NETWORK SERVICE issues in the security event we're reverting the password/login and restarting to confirm this is all OK first...

Its been ten years since I worked with IIS. Windows Server 2008 is new to me. Now, I need to install a private-bower service on Windows Server 2008, and I'm not sure if I need IIS 7 and iisnode or if there is a better way.
Running private-bower, starts a server at http://localhost:5678/
What is the best way to expose that as a service for an internal network on Windows Server 2008?
Or in noob terms: how would I convert http:localhost:5678 to run in Win Server 2008 and IIS7?
I can install node/npm. So using node is an option, within IIS using iisnode and IIS7 (link below) but would I need to? Is there an easier way in IIS?
I'm not sure where to start to configure the :5678 port to be an external service, and how to keep it running, in a remote desktop login.
The links I've been using are:
private-bower: https://www.npmjs.com/package/private-bower
Node on IIS:

iisnode:https://github.com/tjanczuk/iisnode
But I need some help with Window Server 2008 and IIS 7, possibly a link describing ideal service configuration. Thanks.
Found an example that is for Windows Server 2012:

I have a school project I need to do but can't find any tutorials on how to do it. I've installed Win Server 2008 on VMWare Fusion 7 on my Macbook Pro. I also installed Windows 7 64bit on VMWare Fusion that will be the client. Now I need to copy my Win Server 2008 & install that onto VMWare Fusion as well. The problem begins with me having to connect the 2 servers together (through DHCP or something?) then be able to connect the client to either server. The teacher will then turn off one of the servers & the client has to automatically connect to the 2nd, still turned on, server. That's the entire project.
Can someone please link a tutorial for this? I must be writing my requests into google incorrectly, because I can't find anything to help me.
There are a lot of tutorial about that out there, just use keyword "windows server 2008 failover". I had done that with a client-server apps & database running on the server and the client only has 2-3 second connection down and then it's automatically re-connecting to the other server and the apps still running smoothly.
I am trying to deploy a server that I can hit from a different computer in my office. I only need one, two computers to hit it max. I am using Visual Studios Express 2012 RC for Web and have the whole website made, but I can't figure out how to actually deploy it. When I click play to debug it (after I have told it to build the web site) it brings it up on my computer that I built the server on but I can't hit it from another computer. The address it gives me on the browser is localhost:XXXXX. I know local host means that computers IP and I have tried that repeatedly. I am stumped. Please help. I thank you for any help you give in advance. Also if you need more information please feel free to ask.
You can't run it from Visual Studio Express, you have to deploy the web application to an IIS server. You can't access the site if VS is not running, because it creates a local, specialized development server when you start the application, whether with debugging or not. You need to configure IIS on your web server. What is the OS? Once you go through a tutorial to set it up, you will copy your code to an application folder that will be created for you. The details vary by IIS version.
Internet Information Services (IIS) – formerly called Internet
Information Server – is a web server application and set of feature
extension modules created by Microsoft for use with Microsoft Windows.
IIS 7.5 supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, FTPS, SMTP and NNTP. It is an
integral part of the Windows Server family of products, as well as
certain editions of Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7. IIS is
not turned on by default when Windows is installed. The IIS Manager is
accessed through the Microsoft Management Console or Administrative
Tools in the Control Panel.

In my ASP.NET application I have ftpdata folder, there is an MS Access 2010 file e.g. somename.accdb.
On my local computer (Win XP), there is no problem to connect with OleDb to this file and read write datas into and from tables.
But on server (Windows Server 2008), I cannot connect to the same file like on localhost.
Can you help me, please, where problem could be?
Finally, I found solution of problem.
There was not installed 2010 Data Connectivity Components on the server.
The windows user that your application pool is running in does probably not have read access to the directory/file
You need either direct access through the file system or SMB networking access (via a share defined on the server). If the FTP folder has an SMB share name, use that to get to it, but it's likely not shared (since it's purpose is for FTP access, not SMB access).
Installing the 2010 Data Connectivity Drivers does not seem to work, what worked for me was to set the corresponding website application pool in IIS to enable 32-Bit applications.
Official Microsoft Reference:
When the following line is called when running a website from the VS2008's web server i get a "The trust relationship between this workstation and the primary domain failed." exception.
if (User.IsInRole("SomeRole"))

I have turned UAC off, and set VS 2008, and it's built-in webserver, to run as an Administrator, and i have also rejoined my box to the domain. This code works fine if called from one of my Server 2003 boxes in IIS, and it always worked fine in Vista.
Any ideas on what may be causing this?
EDIT:
I just tried running it in IIS 7.5 on my local machine and i am getting the same error. Running it on Windows XP in IIS 5.1 and in the VS 2008 webserver works.
Have you tried running VS2008 as administrator?
This was a Win7/Server2008 R2 bug. The error only occurred when connected to a Windows 2000 domain.
Hotfix available from here
The built in web server is cassini, which is a rather limited web server. You may have discovered a feature cassini doesn't have-- maybe it can't do kerberos. Here is more discussion about what Cassini doesn't have.
