If one is NOT using the native SBS 2008 backup program, is there a
> 'simple' way to backup just Exchange on a 2008 box?

[natalie]

In SBS native it's an all or nothing backup of the box anyway. Just
take a backup of whatever means you normally do.

When will be ready a blog on SBS blogs about what issues we may expect
installing with the released wizard ?

[boris]

Without any issue also for OWA ?

[natalie]

Not sure of the question? Can you explain a little better?
If you don't use the wrapper to install SP2 you must follow the KB that
does manually what the wrapper is doing automatically.
It's fixing the SSL/running the fix my network wizard. If you manually
install SP2 OWA will be impacted.

Hi;

About a month ago, I tried the fix manually and got some funny DNS warnings. I have no idea where they came from. But the install went ahead anyway... then in failed. I had to restart all kinds of services manually etc...
I did the wrapper a few days ago and all went smoothly. Make life easy. Use the wrapper but watch out for errors as Guido said above.
