I discovered today that Indexing List Items so that they appear in Search Results doesnt happen by default and I thought "surely this can't be right". Luckily (thanks to Daniel McPherson) if you follow this link you'll see that you can still enable this on a list-by list basis...

Indexing list items in SPS search results →

Searching google groups for "failed to create portal successfully"group:microsoft.public.sharepoint.portalserver.* returns 120 results "portal creation failed" group:microsoft.public.sharepoint.portalserver.* returns 86 results.

SPS installation woes →

Having decided to use Windows SharePoint Services (WSS) as a company-wide document repository I'm thinking I'm probably going to need to report on the documents and list content (in combination with data from other enterprise systems) and not just rely on SharePoint Search, so Reporting Services seems...

A WSS Data Processing Extension for Reporting Services? →

Although I'm now happy with my custom web service, codewheeney isn't and has posted that he/she has worked out how to use the FrontPage RPC calls to do the same stuff without resorting to web services.

I am the sole developer in an IT team of 5, our other main function therefore is systems admin and support for all IT systems...
