We have a student who will be in ISS for awhile (non-discpline related) and we are trying to figure a way for him to be able to hear his class lectures for each class. I am trying to determine what the best FREE solution is. Should we have the teacher record and then he can play it back or is there a good "live" stream that we could do. I know there are a lot of choices but wanted to see if any of you use something that might work for us?

Currently using Edirectory for user management. My plan was to setup the 2008 server and convert/migrate users over to active directory on it and then possibly use a virtual server off of it and transfer all of the user files? I'm trying to figure out how to get all of the data off the 3 novell servers so that I can start converting them to windows server 2003 and then transfer the data back to those boxes if possible.

The spare server I have Microsoft Server 2008 r2 loaded on has 2 intel xenon E5530 processors with 32GB of RAM and 7 300GB Hard Drives. The servers currently being used with Novell and Microsoft Server 2003 are a mixture of IBM X235's and X232's. The 232's have 4 74GB hard drives and the 235's have 6 74GB hard drives. Do you mean what server?

I have searched for info/suggestions and haven't found what I am looking for, so here we go. We currently have 3 Novell servers running Netware 6.5 and 500 workstation running Win XP. One is the main server (file) that handles the users and "home" drives for each user. A second novell server that houses our software we deploy to users as well as images for the machines. Then we have a third novell server that houses some of our school reading programs and library software. We have 4 other servers running Windows server 2003 and used for applications and databases. We are looking to migrate from Novell to Windows Server 2008 R2 and I am trying to figure out the best way to do this. I have one spare server that I loaded 2008 R2 onto and I am wondering how I can migrate all 3 novell servers to microsoft if I don't have any other additional servers to use? I am beginning to think this will be much more difficult than I originally imagined. Hope I haven't confused anyone as I think I have been over thinking this, and I tend to confuse the hell out of myself when I do that.
