    additional role services . . .

    Hi

    I just discovered, that I have no DNS Role in Windows Server 2008 Web Edition.

    On the Role dialog you can see: "additional role services can be added from
    the Roles home page"



    Does that mean, that I can download DNS Role for W2k8 Web Edition?
    .. . .I could not find the site, does it exist?

    Thanks for your information.

    Hi Meinolf

    I was not talking about the R2 edition.
    My concerning edition is Windows Server 2008 Web Edition.

    Hi Meinolf

    Really? Can you tell me, what to do in the role wizard?

    In fact in my Windows Server 2008 Web Edition (SP2) there are 2 roles I can
    add:

    - IIS
    - Windows Update Services

    Where is the DNS role?

    Thanks for your information.
