With your PrintServer running, just run NETSTAT -N from a CMD window. It will show the applications and ports that are running on your machine.
If that doesn't work just portscan the front of your box and see which ports are advertised. If it's a private port i.e. > 1024 you'll most likely have to change the default port range on your scanner.
The challenge faced when trying to move from Exchange is the tight integration between Outlook, Exchange and Active Directory.
As the user authenticates to AD when accessing Exchange over RPC(enc. in HTTPS if desired), defined in the Outlook MAPI profile it is a single user instance.
The competitive products do not this ability for obvious reasons, and for anyone looking at large scale Exchange support environments that is daunting.
If the site does not have Exchange/AD then over alternatives are more attractive, but when faced with AD/Exchange 2003/Outlook 2003 and throw in Sharepoint Services (free Win2K3 service) then it's an interesting beast to try and tackle.
Competing on a FOSS vs $$$ argument becomes very hard when the support/value proposition is in favour of the $$$ solution.
Depending on the company, some will pay dividends, some will maintain the funds for growth.
Most large cap companies will look at using the funds managers to drive the stock price. Some funds have rules stating they can or can't buy dividend yielding stocks, others have the same rules on capital stocks.
Microsoft has always done well in the past as it has had good growth. It now faces challenges around growth and seems to want to attract the funds that buy dividend yielding stocks.
The original annual dividend was a starting point, but to me seemed a token offer, the restated dividend may attract more fund managers, only time will tell.
As far as being either a growth or dividend stock, with $7B in R&D I think that Microsoft can pay the dividend and not lack funding for potential growth areas.
We get all sorts of guidance from government on how to use privately produced commodities.. cars/guns etc etc.
What interests me is that they perceive that the Windows XP penetration is so persuasive that they produce this guidance... either that or someone inhouse was just doing it anyways.
This is where it would be nice to have an entity that "owned" the brand Linux.
It would make it possible (maybe not popular) to license the use of the brand to registered corporations (who are doing nicely from it) and feed that money into traditional community projects.
Of course there is nothing quite as interesting as a community agreeing on something, but what the hey.
It looks like the total Linux based DB market of $300M was just slightly bigger than the increase in MS based market (3% of 7.1b = $222m)
Big percentage changes, but different market shares to start...
Which e-mail client are you using?
We evaluated it for a large enterprise, but decided to move to Exchange 2003 rather than Bynari for two major reasons (using Outlook 2003)
1. No MAPI support, that meant that the POP connector had the password stored in it, therefore we would have 5000+ support calls from our users every 40 days (password cycle).
2. Transmission of user passwords in clear text.
Any ideas appreciated.
What's your definition of uptime? Or do you not patch your Linux servers? Is this Service Uptime or Server Uptime? Just curious.

Thanks for that. Has he made any noises on exercising any rights around this?
