Hi Mahensadm, Please perform Sainath's suggestion. If you have more questions, I recommend that you initial a post in Windows Server 2008 R2 General Forum so that you can get the most qualified pool of respondents. Thanks for your understanding. Windows Server 2008 R2 General http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/windowsserver2008r2general/threads In addition, we dont recommend that you install the beta version of Windows Server 2008 R2 in your Production Environment.
