How does one update the Connector on the client machines?

I agree the newly introduced scrollbars–due to the window content staying at the same size though the window size has be reduced–are horrible!

Ouch – I'm also getting the maximum number of allowed connections was exceeded error. Bah.

I can’t believe this is positioned as a critical update. And you need to update the connector software too.

All that just to support a snall number of users so they don’t have to go to their workstation to change the configuration of their homeserver.

After killing console process manually through remote desktop, I was able to login. But now all tabs have scrollbars and look like crap

Can confirm that. But on top of that I can't login, because of maximum number of allowed connections was exceeded.

It's silly it STILL doesn't fit properly on a Netbook running Windows 7 and now there is a vertical scrollbar in the main window that reduced the width enough to cause a horizontal scrollbar to appear as well. Finally the background of the logon screen of WHS interface is distorted.

So not only does it still not look right, it now looks down right ugly!

After installing KB963032 (and reboots) is the client console not able to login. It says: ‘The system cannot find the file specified’ ‘This initial program cannot be started: homeserverconsole.exe -b’.

The WHS console is ok. Any ideas?

Yes, Kacey – you're right. Let's hope the Console in Vail is fully re-sizeable for the various screens we use (and let's not forget mobile phones here for the future…)

You made the right move, now go grab a Samsung NC-10/NC-20 – much better than the HP mini, John

NOW they update it. I returned my HP Mini specifically because I couldn't stand the bottom portion of the screen getting chopped off. I purchased an HP 2140 for considerably more because I wanted the portability and the ability to see my WHS console. OK OK, I also wanted the Wireless N draft, gigabit, SATA hard drive, aluminum frame, and 6 cell battery too… but that's besides the point. Do you get a choice of window sizes or are you stuck with the *600 resolution?

How will this sit with apps like perfect disk which were struggling for space before?
