i finally, AND SUCCESSFULLY, converted an old NT4 box to a fully functioning virtual machine.
i am stoked. i only have to do this 4 more times and we can retire these old servers that were purchased in 2002. it's a ****ing miracle they are still running now.
You ****ing necromancer!
We still have a Server 2000 box in prod
Heh, all five of our NT4 boxes were heavily used up until about a year ago, but we still need them for archive purposes.
We have a few Server 2000 boxes floating around; mostly just lesser-used file servers. Not to mention, our server room is a ****ing disaster. There's like 14 tower "servers", two rack servers (on a table), and a massive, non-functioning battery backup unit, in an area where brownouts are somewhat common.
It's kind of tough to make progress on project work when you are also the helpdesk...
