I remember that installation for this OS version was different to others.
I had problems with original HP installation CD1, because it installed SP2
and when I tried to use R2 disks a message indicated that was quite
neccesary to have SP1 installed before.
I used another CD1 without SP2 and installed it. After this, I could install
R2, but I think I forgot configuring completely the server. When R2 was
installed I had to configure the server and applications. I am not sure but
I think that server installation wizards did not run after R2 installation
and I had to run it manually.
I had some help from others technicians but they had not found any problems
with the configuration, so I decided to verify if server performance
(network card, disks, etc) were working well.
Sincerely, I still working with this problem since February and I decided to
clean and reinstall everything but in a last chance I decide to ask for help
and Marina, Ace, SuperGumby and you are helping me and I am very grateful
for this.
Regards,
Juan Carlos
