    What exactly is Virtual PC 2004? What is its purpose, how are you using it? What is your network setup?

    There should be a manual that came with your package, or a PDF on your CD.

    Just for your info Scott:
    http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtualpc/default.mspx

    Very handy for web design as you can have multiple versions of IE at your fingertips for testing.

    Thanks LT, Actually I was playing devil's advocate. There are a few Virtualization tools. Wasn't sure whether Avel was referring to Microsoft's or someone else's.

    I was trying to get my boss to get me a copy so I didn't have to setup a separate test machine for evaluating Office 12. But they preferred to use an existing spare laptop. And since I can't find my KVM switch (got lost in a move), I now have 2 monitors, keyboards and rodents in my little cube. ;)

    I'm currently investigating VMWare for Disaster Recovery and testing in regards to SOX 404 compliance.
    Takes a bit of playing about with but once sussed runs like a dream.

    DR possibly for a Hot site, maybe, don't know just playing.
    This way I can reduce my 8 servers into a couple, if not 1 ;)


    SOX applies to any company that is listed on the American stock exchange.
    Even tho' the company I work for is based in Canada we still have to comply.

    Oh it's really great fun... NOT !

    Ahh! I was responsible for SOX reporting for one of the functions (lease Mgmt) performed by my department. A real PITA.
