Setup

You can get Windows Home Server up and running in three easy steps:

Step 1: Connect and power on.

Step 2: Install the Windows Home Server Connector software.

Step 3: Complete Windows Home Server Setup.

Step 1: Connect and Power On

Use a wired connection to connect your home server to your broadband router or to a switch that is connected to your broadband router. Then connect your home server to an electrical outlet.

Press the power button on your home server to turn it on.

Step 2: Install the Windows Home Server Connector Software

The Windows Home Server Connector software does the following:

• Connects your home computer to Windows Home Server.
• Automatically backs up your home computer nightly.
• Monitors the health of your home computer.
• Enables you to configure and remotely administer Windows Home Server from your home computer.

To install the Windows Home Server Connector software

1. Insert the Windows Home Server Connector CD into a computer that is connected to your home network. The Windows Home Server Connector Wizard starts.

2. Complete the wizard to connect your computer to Windows Home Server.

3. Windows Home Server Setup starts next if this is the first time you have installed the Connector software.

After you complete Windows Home Server Setup, run the Windows Home Server Connector Wizard on all of your other home computers to connect them to Windows Home Server. Run the wizard on one computer at a time.

NOTE

If you do not have your Connector CD, you can install the Connector software from the Software shared folder on Windows Home Server.

Step 3: Complete Windows Home Server Setup

Windows Home Server Setup runs only once, from the first computer where you install the Windows Home Server Connector software. You must complete this step successfully to ensure Windows Home Server functions properly.

To complete Windows Home Server Setup

1. On the Welcome screen, click Next. Windows Home Server initializes.

Depending on where you purchased your home server, you may see the Type your product key page next. If you do not, skip to step 3 of this procedure.

1. On the Type your product key page, type the Windows Home Server product key that is provided by your system vendor, and then click Next.
2. On the Name your home server page, type a name for your home server, and then click Next.

The default name is SERVER. The name you choose can contain the following:

15 characters maximum, with no spaces
- Letters (at least one), numbers, and hyphens

1. On the Type a password for Windows Home Server page, type a password, the password confirmation, and a password hint, and then click Next.

This is the password that you use to manage your home server from the Windows Home Server Console. The password is case-sensitive, and it must be strong. A strong password must be at least seven characters long, and it must contain at least three of the following four character categories:

• Uppercase characters
• Lowercase characters
  Numbers
• Symbols (such as!, @, #, etc.)

A password hint helps you remember the password. If you forget the password, the password hint is displayed to help you remember it, so make sure you provide a helpful hint. The password hint can be seen by anybody who clicks on the link to display it. You will have to reset your server if you forget the password and the password hint does not help you remember it.

1. On the Help protect Windows Home Server automatically page, click On or Off to configure Automatic Windows Updates, and then click Next.

The recommended setting is On to keep Windows Home Server up-to-date and to report problems to Microsoft.

1. On the Customer Experience Improvement Program page, determine if you want to participate in this program, click Yes or No, and then click Next.

The Customer Experience Improvement Program helps improve Windows Home Server by reporting information about your computer hardware and how you use your home server. This information is collected without interrupting you. No information collected is used to identify or contact you.

1. On the Windows Error Reporting page, determine if you want to automatically send error reports to Microsoft, click Yes or No, and then click Next.

If you previously chose to install updates on the Help protect Windows Home Server automatically page, you will see the Windows Home Server Update page next. If you do not, skip to step 9 of this procedure.

1. On the Windows Home Server Update page, click Next to check for critical updates.

Setup checks for critical updates and automatically installs them if there are any. This may take a few minutes to complete. No other input is required from you while the updates are installed.

1. On the final Setup page, click Start to start the Windows Home Server Console so that you can configure Windows Home Server.

User Accounts

After you complete Windows Home Server Setup and install the Windows Home Server Connector software on all of your home computers, you are ready to add user accounts for the people in your household. User accounts are required in order to control access to the shared folders on Windows Home Server.

To add a user account

1. From a home computer, right-click the Windows Home Server tray icon, and then click Windows Home Server Console.
2. Type the Windows Home Server password, and then click Next.
3. On the Windows Home Server Console, click the User Accounts tab.

5. Repeat for each user account that you want to add.

NOTE

When you create user accounts on

Windows Home Server, use logon names that match the logon names of your existing user accounts on your home computers. Also, use the same password that you use for your existing user accounts. This makes it easier to access shared folders on Windows Home Server. If the user accounts and passwords do not match, you will be prompted for a user name and a password when you open Windows Home Server shared folders.

Shared Folders

Shared folders are places for you to organize and store files on Windows Home Server so that you can share them with other people on your home network.

The following shared folders are created automatically on Windows Home Server:

• Photos
  Music
  Videos
• Software
  Public
• A personal shared folder for each user account

You can easily add more shared folders to meet your needs.

To add a shared folder

1. From the Windows Home Server Console, click the Shared Folders tab.
2. Click Add.
3. Complete the Add a Shared Folder Wizard.

NOTE

A personal shared folder is created each time you add a new user account by using the Add User Account Wizard. By default, only this user account has access to the personal shared folder. Users can store personal files in this personal shared folder.

Computer Backups

By default, all of the hard-drive volumes on each home computer are backed up every night after you install the Windows Home Server Connector software.

You can customize the backup of each of your home computers from the Windows Home Server Console.

To customize a home-computer backup

1. From the Windows Home Server Console, click the Computers & Backup tab.
2. Right-click the computer that you want to customize, and then click Customize Backup.

CAUTION

Your hard drive will be formatted when it is added to your server storage. Make sure that you copy any files that you want to save from the hard drive before adding it to your server storage.

IMPORTANT

If you add an external USB hard drive, use a USB 2.0 hard drive. Both your computer hardware and your hard drive must support USB 2.0 for optimal performance. Using USB 1.1 devices can cause poor performance and unpredictable results.
