  • Hi Sunny. You really need to ask some more specific questions rather than just please help. Your request is too broad and is bordering on the *please do my job for me*. How about you break it down into some more specific questions. – Sim Nov 19 '09 at 03:37
  • @Sim: agreed. This is a pretty big question. @sunny: How much help do you really need? Have you set up a server before? Are you asking for these types of answers: 1. Unpack server. 2. Plug in server. 3. Put Windows DVD in DVD drive. 4. Turn on server. ? – joeqwerty Nov 19 '09 at 03:41
  • @SIM and @joeqwerty : 1.How to set DNS which i can point them against my domain name. 2.MS access DB connection is not wrking.Code is right as wrking properly on another server. Can you help me for these 2 specific queries. – sunny Nov 21 '09 at 04:47
  • 1: forget it. You should have 3 dns server - and only have 1 server. beteter do not use DNS On your server. Use the DNS servers of your provider, or registrar. – TomTom Jun 19 '10 at 15:40
  • 2: 32 or 64 bit? Better: DO NOT USE ACCESS - instal SQL Server express. – TomTom Jun 19 '10 at 15:41
  • 3: specific queries - ask on slashdot, with code example etc. – TomTom Jun 19 '10 at 15:41
