Microsoft had launched a series of server operating systems under the brand name Windows Server. Some of the server operating systems are, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003, Windows 2000 Server and others.
Microsoft offers support for all its products including server operating systems. You can visit Microsoft support website, in case you have any technical issues related to Windows Servers.
You can receive a lot of information related to Windows Servers from Microsoft support website. Some of the issues on which you can receive information are, how to configure an authoritative time server in Windows Server 2008 R2, how to troubleshoot shutdown problems in Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 service pack 1 support tools, how to lock down Windows Server 2003, how to configure Internet printing in Windows Server 2003, how to enable Telnet Server in Windows 2000 Server and many others.
Beside this, you can contact a technical service provider for Windows Server support. Technicians at technical service providers make use of remote connection in order to access your system online. After accessing your system, your issues will be analyzed and resolved. So, you do not have to take pain of inviting a technician at your own place because your issues will be resolved through the Internet.

with Service Pack 1 for Windows Server 2003, a new feature called Access-Based Enumeration (ABE) has been added to how file sharing works on Windows platforms. By installing and enabling ABE on a Windows Server 2003 SP1 or R2 file server, users on Windows XP desktops will only be able to see files and folders if they actually have permission to access them. I recently wrote an article for Windows Networking.com that explains how to implement this feature and lists a few gotchas you need to be aware of.
Trouble is, ABE only works if your network shares are on an ABE-enabled Windows Server 2003 SP1 or R2 machine. What if you allow some of the "power users" in your company to share folders on their own Windows XP desktop computers? In that case, you're out of luck as ABE can't be enabled on XP. With Windows Vista however, this has now changed -- Vista has ABE built right into it, and this means that when a user shares a folder on her machine and other users browse that share over the network, they will only see files and folders that they have permissions to access.
Note however that ABE only works if Vista users share their files or folders from within their user profile. Yes that's right, I said files -- in Vista you can share individual files provided you do so from within your user profile. For example, if user Jane Doe shares the file EndOfQuarterPresentation.ppt from within her Documents folder on her computer desk22.mtit.com, then other users to whom she has granted permissions will be able to view and access this file over the network by using the path \\desk22.mtit.com\Users\JaneDoe\Documents\EndOfQuarterPresentation.ppt.

You have your MCSA on Windows Server 2003 and you want to upgrade to Windows Server 2008. Or you are not certified at all and want to earn the MCTS on Windows Server 2008. The first thing to remember is that this is a series of new certifications and while there is an upgrade path, you are not earning an MCSE on Windows Server 2008 rather an MCTS or MCITP on windows Server 2008. Also remember that the era of the MCSA/MCSE certifications has ended – it is now MCTS and MCITP (and others beyond the scope intended here) and have an entirely different focus.
As I stated in an earlier blog – the Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist (MCTS) has a different focus then the Microsoft Certified Information Technology Professional (MCITP) and the former is not a prerequisite for the latter either (and nor is it a “lesser” certification!). The MCTS certification is aimed at IT Professionals who work with a specific Microsoft product or platform. An IT Pro who has earned their MCTS is expected to possess depth and breadth of knowledge and skills on a particular product or platform. They are expected to manage and maintain the product or platform on a daily basis. They are also more concerned with the day-to-day operations and short term planning rather than long term planning and design and design.
There are three MCTS tracks available: MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Active Directory Configuration; MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure Configuration and MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Applications Infrastructure Configuration. You can take each of the tests individually, or you can take the upgrade path by taking only one test.
The easiest route to upgrade your certification, if you are already an MCSA on Windows Server 2003, is take (and pass, of course) the 70-648 TS: Upgrading your MCSA on Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server 2008, Technology Specialist exam. Passing this exam will earn you the: MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Active Directory, Configuration (equivalent to the 70-640 exam) and the MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure Configuration (equivalent to the 70-642 exam). The last of the three MCTS certifications - MCTS: Window Server 2008 Application Infrastructure Configuration is earned by passing the 70-643 exam. The other part to earning your MCTS on any one of the three paths is to pass the 70-646exam (Windows Server 2008, Server Administrator.
As you can see, the upgrade path from MCSA Windows Server 2003 to MCTS on Windows Server 2008 is straight forward – a far cry from the old 70-240 exam!
