&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src="http://forums.techsoup.org/cs/Themes/techsoup/images/icon-quote.gif"&gt; &lt;strong&gt;splash:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Also do I need antivirus software for each mailbox in the exchange server? (we currently use nod32).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;For an operation of your size, I would say that NOD32 is plenty - just make sure you buy as many licenses as you need for the new location.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src="http://forums.techsoup.org/cs/Themes/techsoup/images/icon-quote.gif"&gt; &lt;strong&gt;splash:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We are looking at window server and I&amp;#39;m not sure if we need an exchange server&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;You may not need either.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Take a look at &lt;a href="http://workspace.officelive.com/en-us/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Office Live Workspace&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; - it&amp;#39;s 5GB of free storage for you guys to share&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Alternatively, take a look at &lt;a href="http://www.google.com/a/help/intl/en/npo/index.html"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Google Apps for NPO&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; - this has the added benefit of also managing your email, sharing your calendars, etc - but this free version doesn&amp;#39;t have the full sync opportunities that Outlook does&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Do either of these solutions take care of your file sharing and email needs?&amp;nbsp; Are you just sharing MS Office documents, or are you sharing files between accounting software(s) as well?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Server - options, requirements! help please</title><link>http://forums.techsoup.org/cs/forums/thread/99323.aspx</link><pubDate>Thu, 28 May 2009 14:31:08 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">caa7681b-025a-49ce-809f-7435bfe4d232:99323</guid><dc:creator>splash</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://forums.techsoup.org/cs/forums/thread/99323.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://forums.techsoup.org/cs/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=20&amp;PostID=99323</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am from a non profit child care centre. We are opening a second location and would like to share files between the two sites and have email addresses for staff and shared calendars. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Currently we share files in our one locations by saving over a mapped network drive. We use the outlook calendar and google calendar sync to sync the calendar between 3 computers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We are looking at window server and I&amp;#39;m not sure if we need an exchange server &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Also do I need antivirus software for each mailbox in the exchange server? (we currently use nod32). Our PC supplier has shifted through a few server guys and we don&amp;#39;t have great support or advice from them. I know a little, but this is all pretty new to me.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Robin&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
