Anyone currently hosting MS SharePoint? How'z that going? What's the software to set up my server to resell it going for?

You would need a Windows server to run Sharepoint or Sharepoint Team Services.

When RS goes with Windows, depending on version of the server, it might be possible to do it, SPS is s resource HOG, and requires at the very least 2 servers.

The cost, one word, expensive! The CALS are very pricy, and the app is 3k.

I see you are from OC, are you doing any SPS work now?

2 servers? wtf? I know people who run sharepoint on PC's as servers - am I missing something?

SPS Team and the full version are diff apps.. SPS full requires AD and to use all the feature, Exchange as well... Also, unless you want to use a scaled version of Access, you will need SQL..

:confused:

you don't need a huge machine to run ms-sql do you? I'm more on a *nix type so I don't have much experience in ms-sql etc but when I have set it up it's run OK on PC's

I don't like the word expensive. Not ready to put that kind of cash out. I knew I would need a NT server.

Anyone running SharePoint which I can resell?

Dave-- SQL is not necessary, but highly recomended if you have more than a few users, and more than a little data..and I do not remember exactly, but there are limitations in 2k3 Web Edition, and I have a feeling that is what will be offered at RS...Its very inexpensive..

kcgbjc--Do you have a customer looking for a solution or just asking?
kcgbjc
I have a customer who develops for it. He would like to package the hosting with his development. I thought I might offer it to him.

If you are interested, possibly we could help.. PM me with what you need / had in mind...
