When installing ChangeAuditor form Quest (a next, next finish installation) I received an error when I tried to logon with the client but I did not get any error during or after the installation. I got the following error:
Info","Could not connect to net.tcp://<FQDN>.local:49309/Service. The connection attempt lasted for a time span of 00:00:02.0779654. TCP error code 10061: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it <IPadress>:49309. "
After a migration of SBS 2003 to SBS 2008 i encountered some problems assigning a pop3 connect mailbox to an exchange user.
No (migrated )mail enabled users appeared in the drop down list.
Only new user who are created with the Windows SBS Console seem to populate the list.
One way to populate the list is changing the msSBSCreationState attribute on the user.
Just open adsiedit.msc and browse to the users you want to populate the list and click preferences.
Then go down to the msSBSCreationState attribute and click edit and fill in the value “Created”
Ok out of all windows and open up the pop3 connector console again.
You can now see the edited account(s) in the dropdownlist

The solution is easy I just forgot to choose the right virtual hardware profile. The default of VMware Labmanager is Windows 2003 and I had the Windows 2008 R2 CD mounted.
You can choose the right hardware profile at the properties tab and than select the appropriated Guest OS.
When creating a virtual machine from a template in VMware Vsphere, most of you will make use of the “Guest Customization Wizard” to create a new SID for Windows Virtual Machines and other sort of things in which you want your new virtual machine to differ from the template.
Normally this is no problem, but when you want the newest of the newest like Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit, VMware doesn’t support guest customization, not even when you have updated your ESX and Virtual Center to the latest software-level. You get the following message:

When installing vCenter on Windows 2008 R2 and you’re planning to connect to a Windows 2008 SQL server you must use a 32 bit ODBC DNS. This is old news for the most of us. But When your planning to use the Windows 2008 (R2) as the platform for vCenter you must first install the Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Native Client on the server or else there is no Native client visibly in het selection menu form ODBC.This dynamic-link library is not default present on your system en must be installed separately.
So download the Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Native Client for W2008 or W2008R2. Watch out read the page carefully because there are a lot of download links on them.
