MCITP Windows Server 2008 Setup

I have one laptop at the house... They recommend in the book having two in front of you to do all the labs do you really need two laptops to finish all the labs in the book? Or could you get by with just loading it up on one? Could you just build it a separate partition on your current laptop?

Try running something like virtual server/pc or vmware. That way you can have as many running as your hardware will allow you. I have vmware workstation and can have 4 W2K8 servers and an xp client running at the same time.

vmware or virtualbox or virtualpc will all work. That's how I've studied for all my exams. One physical pc but many virtual machines.

Same here.

To simulate a full, routed, WAN environment I used a bootable software router called ZeroShell. It works great in Virtual PC but I have never used it with VMware Server.

Is is easy to configure, I created three subnets, a DC in each and all the network services - DHCP Relay etc...

That looks like a nice tool.

There are other ways to do that, but I don't think there's anything that user-friendly for the people who are weaker in networking.

Thanks!
