Welcome to the SharePoint Beagle. This is a community site dedicated to serving information about Microsoft SharePoint and related technologies. In case you haven't noticed, the Internet contains a wealth of information; so much information that it is difficult to find and determine it's validity. The primary goal of the "Beagle" is to sniff-out information for you and present it in such a way that will make it simple to find. |
Greetings, There has been a number of individuals and companies who have been instrumental in the creation, maintenance and evolution of The SharePoint Beagle newsletter. Bob Fox has been heavily involved in writing articles for the Administration Channel and working with our authors to bring quality information. Drew Jones, of iDevFactory, has been involved right from the beginning; helping out with the initial newsletter design. Chris Regan, Principal of B&R Business Solutions, has been instrumental by providing hardware and network services to aid in the delivery of the newsletter itself. Needless to say, I am extreemly greatful for having these individuals as friends and this newsletter wouldn't be possible without their help. Please take the opportunity to visit our sponsor links; they provide great SharePoint products and services! Lastly, I would like to thank all of our Authors for their countless hours of effort; they all do this for the love of writing and sharing with the SharePoint community. Thank you everyone and have a wonderful holiday! Bob Mixon
Principal and Senior Information Architect, Mixon Consulting

Support policy for Microsoft software running in non-Microsoft hardware virtualization softwareHardware virtualization software lets you run multiple operating system instances at the same time on a single computer. Microsoft has two software offerings, Microsoft Virtual PC and Microsoft Virtual Server, that provide this functionality. Third parties also have software in the market that provides this functionality. This article describes support provided by Microsoft for its software running together with non-Microsoft hardware virtualization software. Human Resources Talent Acquisition SolutionThis article describes how my company, Conchango, used Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) at a large manufacturing company to meet the Human Resources (HR) department’s talent acquisition requirements. This effort demonstrates SharePoint’s strength as a business solution delivery platform by using out-of-the-box MOSS and WSS features to meet a set of real-world business requirements. Extending your Collaboration Portal to the OutsideSo let’s do a little role playing together (please don’t take that to mean something else) but let’s just say that we have implemented an internal collaboration portal using Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 or even Windows SharePoint Services 3.0, for those of you that have commented to me about not giving enough info out for WSS this is for you. In reality this solution deals with collaboration and for that we are talking about WSS... Business Process (Workflow) and SharePointMany companies that deploy SharePoint require a process or workflow capability to reap full the benefits of the technology they have purchased. In response, Microsoft listened to their customer needs and built an embedded workflow capability into Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) 2007. Logically, people have begun to ask “why do I need to purchase a separate business process management suite (BPMS) if there is workflow built into MOSS?”... |

 5-Days to a Successful MOSS Deployment
Would you start building a house without a blueprint? Of course not.
Building a house without a solid foundation would eventually lead to a complete collapse. The same principal holds true when embarking on the implementation of a MOSS Knowledge Management, Information Asset and Collaboration solution. Without a solid foundation of knowledge to guide you through the understanding and implementation of taxonomic structures, metadata use, site and navigation structures, security, governance, training, adoption, and so on, the risk of failure is very high.
“SharePoint Planning, Information Architecture and Design (PAD) Workshop” is an intense, 5 day multi instructor led workshop that covers the nuts and bolts of implementing a Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) solution.
The concentrated curriculum offers a structured learning environment where project managers, business analyst, web designers, information managers and IT professionals can grasp the strategies and obtain the know-how needed to deliver highly structured Knowledge Asset, Knowledge Management and Collaboration solutions.
