Active Directory On Windows Home ServerFirst of all, let me start off with this is a violation of the End User License Agreement, and is specifically mentioned in it. So, do this at your own risk, and know that there will be no official support, and definitely not sanctioned by Microsoft. |

Block Certain IP Addresses from Accessing Your WebsiteAfter you have a web site up on your WHS you may find that there are some folks you would rather not visit, be they your ex-brother-in-law or Chinese hackers. So how do you block them? Well, IIS 6, the web server on WHS, has the capability to block access from certain IP addresses. That only leaves the question of how to get the IP address. One way is to analyze your web site log files using a tool such as Deep Log Analyzer, as explained in this Wiki, to identify suspicious visitors. |

Configure UPnP For Windows Home ServerNot only is this probably one of the most simple tutorials that I have, it is a pretty big flaw in WHS that these entries are not always added. Some times it takes hours, or even a hard reset before these entries normally appear. |

Create a Desktop WHS Console LinkThe Windows Home Server (WHS) console link in the client computer system tray is only a very specialized remote desktop connection. You can recreate this function with an icon on your desktop. So, why would you want to do this? Well, maybe you have two Windows Home Servers. Since you can only have a link to one home server at a time in the system tray, using this method you can easily access the console of the second (or third, or fourth) home server. You can also have more control over how the console window looks and what functionality is available. So how do we do this? Read on. |

Create a VPN Using a DD-WRT Flashed RouterUsually a Windows Home Server (WHS) is used to backup computers on your local network. But sometimes there is a need to back up a remote computer. This tutorial shows you how to create a Virtual Private Network (VPN) connection to your home network for the purpose of off-site backups using a router with DD-WRT software. I have “borrowed” some of this tutorial from DD-WRT. When I say borrowed I mean that I have followed their directions to set up my VPN for the first time. I will not copy their tutorial word for word but do not be surprised if some parts sound similar. I am also assuming users are using Windows Vista™, but the steps are similar in XP. |

Enable Remote Desktop Connection For Vista Home PremiumIf you are like me, you probably have a computer or two that runs Windows Vista Home Basic or Home Premium. The only problem with that, is that Remote Desktop Connection is disabled by design on those operating systems. Not only that, Windows Home Server disables the connection from the web interface also. So for those of us wanting to remote into those computers, we are pretty much out of luck. Except we aren't, there is a way to enable Remote Desktop Connection on those computers and trick the web interface to allow it! And we are going to show you how. |
