So, let’s get to integration of your fresh box into the Windows network. Like most companies, the ones I work(ed) for used the famous MS Exchange Server - in connection with the Outlook Client for mail exchange and scheduling tasks. I've read that Evolution, which is installed out of the box (only on Ubuntu versions prior to 11.10, but it may be installed manually in later versions), also can handle Exchange servers. This is exactly what I needed! So I searched the web and found a German tutorial (http:// | So, let’s get to integration of your fresh box into the Windows network.

- | However, I've done some web research, and I was not able to get Exchange 2007 and above working even with the most recent version of Evolution. I now use the IMAP support built into Exchange Server to send and receive mails, which works quite well. You might have to ask your administrators to enable IMAP on Exchange Server. I receive a LOT of mail per day, and otherwise I had to answer the whole bunch over the Exchange Web Interface known as “Outlook Web Access”. Though being able to connect to my mail account, I didn't quite figure out how to access the address book. That’s sad, but I have the habit of just “replying” to whoever wrote me. So, I can live without the exchange address book and build up my own local one, but it would be nice if I could figure out how to configure this one day. | + | Le travail au bureau |
- | One drawback occurred in the course of the last Ubuntu update. Before 11.10, Oneiric Ocelot, I was able to accept or decline meeting requests from within Evolution, which then would automatically put the appointments into my calendar. This feature seems to be broken with 11.10, so I have to log into the Outlook web interface to reply and to do scheduling. | + | |

- | Next thing, most companies have a BIG shared network drive in the office. Every file which is related to a running project or is of public interest, will just get dumped on the network drive in some folder. All Windows machines can access this drive, and read or create their own files. So, as one can imagine, it was very important to me to get access to this drive and continue working on the shared files. I tried to determine the IP of the file server machine and access it from nautilus by pressing CTRL+L and entering smb:// | + | Venons-en à l' |

Interoperability between MS Office and OpenOffice / NeoOffice (OO / NO) has been very important to me because I regularly get these kinds of documents. So, it is necessary for the Windows guys that I stick to their format (*.doc or *.xls). I guess, for all people who want to do some collaborative work, the point of compatibility is one of the most important ones. As far as I can tell, there were no real problems concerning reading and writing files in the proprietary MS document formats. I have to admit that the most complex documents that I tested contained a maximum of thirty pages with a few images and some tables. So, compatibility may become worse if you have to create more complex documents. | Interoperability between MS Office and OpenOffice / NeoOffice (OO / NO) has been very important to me because I regularly get these kinds of documents.

Professional office printers mostly support Postscript drivers and should therefore be compatible. Anyway, you might not see all available options and capabilities of your printer within the printing dialogue because of driver limitations. For me, this was not a real problem but I'd like also to point out that I don't print out very much.** | ||
