im new in servers...can any one help me on what should i
do first or what should i setup on my first installer
windows2000 server..
 
The answer is: 'It depends on what's the role of your server.' :)
Althought Windows is relatively easy to use, I would suggest that you get
yourself some basic reference book. Do as you read, read as you do.
 
That's a pretty broad question, and not sure if this "first server" is
supposed to be a server or a domain controller, in either an existing domain
or if you're trying to create a new domain, as those questions make a lot of
difference.
However the first thing i would do is to create a new additional "admin"
account to have in case something happens with the default Administrator
account, and then check the event logs to be sure that you don't have any
real problems. After that, a lot depends on the initial questions above,
and what you're wanting this box to do.
thanks
