Sharing with everyone yesterday's official announcement of 'Windows Server 2008' being the name of Microsoft's next generation server platform.

The Windows Server 2008 product information Web site is now online here.

And also for IIS7 a Go Live license is now available with Beta 3 of Windows Server 2008 that allows you to put Windows2008/IIS7 into testing/production so that you can begin preparing your hosting services for next year when the product becomes generally available. Become a featured IIS7 Beta Hoster.

I've got the Longhorn beta, can't get it to connect to the network for some reason.

We are launching IIS 7 beta, hope to give more feedback on this soon

Good news,I will ask somebody to try it.

[mooodi]

I will wait for your response people, because I am not in favour for testing beta version on a live machine . And by testing on a test machine maybe don't get the desire result.

We too have started testing on w2k8 and IIS 7. Will keep you posted.

Cheers
