Install Entourage from SBS 2003 CD?

S

SusanG

I have the Small Biz Server 2003 CD set and there's a CD labeled Entourage
2004 dated Nov 2004, but when I pop it in drive to install, disk cannot be
read. I'm trying to avoid having kick off the whole Server install to get to
this one disk, but maybe that's what has to happen. What I need is Entourage
for one client/end-user, and I'm hoping that's what on this CD. Can anyone
confirm process?
Susan, many thanks

Are you trying to install Entourage on windows? Entourage is a Mac only
application.

Sorry, no. I'm trying to burn the Entourage software to a CD for my one MAC
user. But you're right, I don't want to kick off an install, I want to browse
the CD and copy those files for her.

Can you explain how this is legal?

It is, Diane (or rather, it can be).

Licenses for Exchanges server (including the version with Small Business
Server) include a client license for Outlook or Entourage.

I seem to recall that Entourage is provided on the SBS installation discs as
a standalone app, but without digging my disks out I can't confirm what
format it is in.

If the OP is planning to install it as a client to the exchange server in
SBS, that is perfectly legal and within the terms of the EULA.

OK, I checked.

Entourage is not included in the SBS disk set. However, this web page:
<http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/sbs/evaluation/faq/prodinfo.mspx
Says:

Q. I have Mac Clients on my SBS network. What do I use in place of Outlook?

A.
SBS customers that have MAC clients may use Entourage in place of outlook on
the MAC client.

Q. How do I get the media for Entourage?

A.
There are 2 ways to acquire the media for Entourage.

After 4 weeks of different 800 numbers, transferred then dropped calls, email
to/from India, I finally, FINALLY, got this part via this number, from a very
helpful guy called Sean -

Susan, for assistance with this concern, I recommend you to contact our
Microsoft Sales and Purchase team at: (888) 218-5617. They are available
everyday 8:00 A.M. - 10:00 P.M. Eastern Time. This team will be in a better
position to assist you.

All I needed was the license key info from SBS 2003 from the My
Computer|Properties page on the server. $5.25 shipping, 3-10 biz days.
