If theres one thing i hate, its error messages that says absolutly nothing usefull, like this one.
i had ensured that my exports list was correctly set up, actually, i had it tested from my tvix (was able to browse the share) but from another nix server, i got this message.
Microsoft Sharepoint Services 3.0 with seperate MSSSQL Server.
When you try to access http://sharepointserver/site after finishing site setup, you might get the following
message “Cannot connect to the configuration database”

This time i were going to install Windows 2008 Server Standard on a fresh DL360G5.
After the crypto bug got fixed in debian (and the system got updated via apt) it would prompt one for regeneration of certificates.
what i forgot all about, was that of course OpenVPN was affected by this aswell, so after the update and a reboot, all my vpn connections died suddenly.
Teaming 2x 1gbit network adapters with the HP utility usually dosnt take much more than a few minuts
alltho, this time a strange thing appeared.
So i finally pulled myself together and formatted my server (4 years since last time i did a full reinstallation)
usually i just upgrade the kernel, but hey, time for some cleanup!
i save the .config file for the running kernel, as lazy i am, no need to spend more time than necessary.
since i decided to make it my router, i had to compile iptables support. which i did, and compiled rest of the netfilter/iptables related stuff as modules. so the weird thing was, while i were trying out an old iptables rules script
i got an error like
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ppp0 -j MASQUERADE
FATAL: Module ip_tables not found.
iptables v1.3.8: can’t initialize iptables table `nat’: Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?)
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.
First i reinstalled iptables which made no difference, then the kernel again (included a few useless modules)
and i still got the error.
anyway, it seems like it can be rather unhealthy to use your current kernel config everytime you compile a new kernel, since there are some options which arent updated(no questions asked)
anyway, i did a make menuconfig, removed the support for networking (Networking – [*]Networking Support)
save the config file, opened it again, and enabled the support. all the original settings were removed, and i had to config it from scratch, but to my big surprise, i suddenly had alot more options to play with. and after compiling the kernel, rebooting – the problem was fixed 
This is usually pretty much useless for almost everyone using PPPoE these days
but since i recently got fiber installed at my place, and my isp got a thing for PPPoE
and also got multiple access concentrators (servers you can connect to, providing redundancy) i got a small problem since i hooked up the link directly to my linux gw.
After installing VMware server + console successfully, the client console might bug you with an error message sounding like
VMware Server Console
The Process exited with an error:
End of error message.
