Troubleshoot Server Administration

The Server Administration page says my server type is no longer supported.

Previous versions of the Microsoft FrontPage Server Extensions supported several Web servers on the UNIX platform. FrontPage Server Extensions 2002 only support the Microsoft FrontPage-patched Apache Web server. For more information, see the SharePoint Team Services Administrator's Guide.

Invitations aren't working.

You must have access to an SMTP Server to send invitations.

To specify mail settings for a virtual server
  1. On the Server Administration page, under Virtual Servers, next to the virtual server you want to change, click Administration.

  2. Under Administration, click Change configuration settings.

  3. In the Mail Settings area, in the SMTP mail server box, type the name of the SMTP mail server to use.

  4. In the From address box, type the e-mail address to send e-mail from.

    This address appears in the From box of any e-mail messages from the server. No e-mail is sent to this address, so you can use an unmonitored e-mail address if you want.

  5. In the Reply-to address box, type the e-mail address that users can reply to.

    If a user replies to an e-mail message from the server, it will be sent to this address. You should use an address that is monitored for the reply-to address.

    If a user replies to an e-mail message from the server, it will be sent to this address. You should use an address that is monitored for the reply-to address.
