SUMMARY
BackOffice Small Business Server (SBS) includes several bundled services, including the Modem Sharing service. Using the Modem Sharing service in SBS requires a corresponding client software package that is specific to the operating system on the computer. Because SBS (and the Modem Sharing service) was released before Microsoft Windows 2000, the Modem Sharing client that is included with SBS is not compatible with Windows 2000. If you attempt to install the Microsoft Windows NT version of the Modem Sharing client in Windows 2000, you receive the following error message:

Setup Message

Unable to find the .INF Source File. Check the /i switch on the Setup command line.



MORE INFORMATION
A Windows 2000 version of the Modem Sharing client software is now available. See the following Microsoft Web site for complete information:

NOTE: You may need to obtain and install a Windows 2000 hotfix for complete compatibility. For additional information, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
