Executive Chat: Windows Server "Longhorn" Networking

  • Article

A lot of work has gone into developing and refining the next version of our server OS, known by some as Windows Server Longhorn. My colleague Eddy Malik informed me that the networking advances are some of the most interesting in this release, among them integrated IPv6 support. He also passed along notice of an online chat with Jawad Khaki, our Corporate VP for Networking, which I'm in turn passing along to you (the .ics link to an Outlook Calendar entry is especially helpful):
