Indeedy! In fact, i'd venture to guess that we pretty much all do!!

Your best bet is to take a look at the project home page on Codeplex where @nickbro has put the latest supported build and some links to an instructions PDF (under the documentation tab) and some other videos etc. Home Access Plus+

It's hard to answer your question, as i suspect you need to know a bit more about HAP+ in order to tell us what you want to do with it.. You can run it on a Windows Server 2008 install (it sits in IIS) - but to enable access to it from outside your school, you'd need to configure firewalls, SSL certificates etc.. which are all a bit beyond the installation instructions for HAP (Though you'll always get help and advice here)

Have a read through the docs and perhaps have a play.

Hi, Basically access at the school via ipads.. Then eventually access from home..

does it have to be installed on the DC??

[nickbro]

It works best on a member server as you need to give the users local logon rights for HAP+ to impersonate the user when accessing UNC resources.

Hi,
I have started along the route and got the certificate stage.. I have been to the https://www.startssl.com website, They created a free certificate. and exported it from from my browser; When I tried to import it onto the server I am getting the following error..

Certificate cannot be used as an SSL server certificate??

Any ideas?

Ideally you should IIS's certificate manager to create a CSR, then use it again to complete the request using the cert from Start SSL
