I am getting ready to upgrade from the Mail server Pro to the new .NET version and I am also going to move the e-mail server to a new physical server before virtualizing the new server.
My question is will the .Net version run on Server 2003 64Bit and I am going to move my Full version of MS SQL 2005 to that same server but would like to use the express version for the mail because we don't want to add additional mail burdens to our existinig SQL server. So will the Full version of SQL co-exist with an Express(Free) version on the same machine.
Once the physical machine is up and running I want to virtualize it to an ESXi 4.0 machine is anyone running Argosoft as a VM now?
So in summary will Mail server .Net run in 2003 64bit, can SQL server and SQL express co-exist on the same machine, will Mail server run in a VMware VM?
