  The first release of Windows Home Server will not be available on MSDN or Technet.   The product will continue to be made available via time-bombed versions (120 days for RTM Evaluation) that will be made available in the next month or two.  The current RC versions are good for 180 days from install.

  Thanks.  Just hoping I can get the RTM bits to work, since I have had no consistant luck for previous builds.  (

  well thats a bit of a let down about msdn and technet......but life goes on

   

  I am assuming yes to this question though. Will 120 RTM eval be able to upgrade RC1?

   

  I live on the outskirts of the world for want of a better description and doubt we will see the boxed product before RC1 expires. Oh and if the 120 eval expires before RTM arrives on these shores can it also be reinstalled and reactivated?

   

  Cheers

  As has been said here many times, the WHS team have promised that RC (not RC1) will be able to be upgraded to RTM, but many here would recommend that any pre-release software should be installed afresh to ensure there are no hidden problems.
