Thread: SharepPoint Services 3 + Plesk 8.1?

  1. #1

    SharepPoint Services 3 + Plesk 8.1?

    Has anyone experience of installing Sharepoint Server 3? I want to create a test environment to demonstrate Groove and Sharepoint to others and of course want it to coexist on my Win2003 R2 box alongside Plesk 8.1 etc. But I've read that it trashes the default IIS install and changes authentication schemes - kerboros to NTLM and I'm concerned of side effects on Plesk...

    My understanding is one can create a Virtual IIS server/site and host it there or another option would be to run it on a VMWare OS - OK I could use Virtuozo but VMWare is free

    Any thoughts would be most welcome before I take on the install challenge - oh and I have imaged the machine so it can always be recovered, just slowly.

    Cheers

    Without serious understanding of .NET 2 Membership technologies, SharePoint Services 3.0 are limited to Kerberos and NTLM logins; every web user must have an NT Account.

    You can make this SQL dependant, however is painful - with the added bonus of the SharePoint administrator tools only being able to add users that pre-exist in the database.

    Hi Cameron

    Looking through the install procedure it appears (from my simplistic observation) that there's a choice of authentication processes to include ASP forms, and should the server be located on a WAN the choice of authentication if clients don't have NT authentication accounts...perhaps I've misunderstood or it's not the case I'd hoped in simply check box selection during install!

    cheers though

    Once you choose that installation method, and in the web setup you then have to configure the back-end data source.

    MS were supposed to be releasing a "make SQL Auth easier" tool, but I haven't seen it appear yet.
