Project Description
Handy little tool for generating installation scripts for Microsoft Office SharePoint Server. Works for SingerServer Installations as well as Farm installations, and will configure Farm settings, Web Applications, Share Service Providers, Excel Calculation Services, and Indexing.
Details
NSOT is a WinForm project in C# that allows you to specify all the parameters needed to create a MOSS Installation (either Full Famr or Singer Server), and generate the CMD scripts to create the farm automatically. To execute these scripts, you must make an install folder on your destination server with the MOSS source files (I recommend a slipstreamed SP1 source) and copy the script files in to the root of that install folder. They can then be executed from there. All scripts are generated with documentation and instructions in the script, as well as the option to include additional samples for things like managed paths, contentDB attachment, and alternate access mappings.
Current Limitations
NSOT does not yet configure Search Query servers on different sources that the crawler. It also cannot current configure content sources or schedules for crawling, or profile import sources and schedules. These must be done manually for a successful farm.
