MORE INFORMATION
================

CD-ROM Volume Name is Undescriptive
-----------------------------------

The volume name (the name associated with the drive letter, that you see when the
CD is placed in the drive)on the CD is Disc1.
Because of this lack in description, one may think that there should be a second
CD. However, there is only the one CD.
Recommended fix: Use a more descriptive name, ie. SBSRK4.5


CD-ROM Icon on the CD-ROM Drive is Incorrect
--------------------------------------------

Icon on the CD-ROM drive, (the icon associated with the drive letter, that the
you see when the CD is placed in the CD-ROM drive), is the standard Microsoft
Windows logo.
Because of this, one may mistake the CD for another Microsoft product.
Recommended fix: Change the icon to reflect the specific product.


CD-ROM Readme.doc Correction
----------------------------

When reading the readme.doc from the root of the CD, it describes under section
"1.2 Setting up the Resource Kit Tools (Client)" that the installation does the
following:

Setup creates a Small Business Server Resource Kit, program group on the Start
Menu which contains four start menu items:
Release Notes
Resource Kit Tools Overview
Resource Kit Online Books
Tools Management Console

However, Setup does not install the Resource Kit Online Books.

SOLUTION:
Correct text in the readme.doc, to change the paragraph to:

"Setup creates a Small Business Server Resource Kit program group on the Start
Menu which contains three start menu items:
Release Notes
Resource Kit Tools Overview
Tools Management Console"


Page 512: Error In Instructions
-------------------------------

The last bullet on page 512 incorrectly instructs the user to rename Clioc.o to
Clioc.ini. The file should be renamed to Clioc.inf.

Change:

Locate the Clioc.o file in the following path:
SBSServer\SmallBusiness\Template\Clioc.o
Rename this file to Clioc.ini

To:

Locate the Clioc.o file in the following path:
SBSServer\SmallBusiness\Template\Clioc.o
Rename this file to Clioc.inf


Page 766: Screen Does Not Match the CD Main Menu
------------------------------------------------

The main menu screen shot on page 766 does not match the main menu on the
CD-ROM.

Chapter 51, page 766 displays the following menu options:

  SBS Server Components - NT
  Install Server and Client Tools
  SBS Client Components - NT/Win9x
  Install Client Tools
  Release Notes

  RAS Manager

  Web Server Capacity Analysis Tool
  Microsoft Management Console

  Crystal Reports 6.0

SOLUTION:
Update the book to match the main menu on the CD-ROM.
