Some screens from new windows Longhorn Server
Some screens from new windows Longhorn Server

So the GUI still isn't optional then?![]()
no i dont think so, it dont look like it from what i can see

AD- looks similar, lots more policys etc.... The GUI is not going Vistary anyway, just like Server 2003 is not XP like, so its staying that way from the info I have from MSFT. Or it even doesn't have an interface as you can, for DCs etc, get a version which only works from the command prompt for stability etc....
Annoying - Thats a beta thing, its improved in this build from the last few, the same goes for Vista, I admit they are still there but not as many!
Config - the new config stuff is brill, works well and is much simpler to do things, and you can configure lots of roles all at once unlike before.
Desktop - Vista icons, but thats where it kind of ends
GP - MMMMMMMM the potential for over 1,000 more items! Yay! We will be able to stop the kids from breathing next!
IIS - looking nice and about time too, it hasn't had a big change for years really has it
Login / Logon - Stolen from Vista again, bring back the classic screen of CTRL+ALT+Delete as the new one is boring and yucky!
Looks good!
Yes i agree IIS needed a bit of makeover!
Ash.
