OK, first business day down. The server is up and running. I’m not sure I’m going to leave it with Small Business Server or go with straight Server 2008. In a way, SBS seems good because it integrates everything in one package, but I’m limited in what I can do because I don’t control the router to make some exclusions, which is necessary to configure SBS correctly. On the other hand, Server 2008 R2 requires a lot of manual tweaking to make it work right. I have time to decide. The drive formats are complete and I’ll play with it more tomorrow. I should have a decision by COB tomorrow and I’ll know what direction I’m taking by then.
We just got back from dinner. It was a great time! And my first time ever having sake! We started with a potato and seafood salad and Omhi beef. OMG, Becky, that beef was phenomenal. So good! Melts in your mouth. Then some shrimp with what I think was deviled crab all deep fried. Then we had some other shrimp with possibly a cheese-based sauce, deep fried, and some “mountain potatos”. These were similar to a gooey mashed potato with shrimp and scallops in it. Very tasty! Next were dumplings. These were like meatballs with some noodles on the outside. Tasty! Then some “beer food” which was french fries, some various snack items, and this really good “squid jerky”. I’m totally bringing that home. Then some AWESOME friend rice, followed by some ice cream. Excellent meal and a lot of fun!
