Due to the nature of virtualization software, some system functionality is not available to the administrator of a Virtual Private Windows hosting server.

The following are known to not function in this environment:

  • NTBackup
  • RAS (Remote Access Services), including VPN
  • MS ISA Server (Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server) and other firewall services

NOTE: Some of our older server may not let you install anti-virus software. If you need more information, please contact customer support.
