God bless poor Ed he can't stay on top of everything!
 
My confidence level for a Solaris 9 64bit master working with a Windows 2008 media server is low despite the official Symantec support. 
 
Good luck, and let us know how it goes!

I just love conflicting information.  Although I trust the information provided by this list more than the staff at symantec the fact that the support staff has agreed to help with this issue and the pdf at
 
 
called

leads me to believe that a Window 2008 x64 can be used as a media server at level 6.5.2.

We have upgraded from 5.1.4 to 6.5 and then .2 and then .2.a

The creation of a media server on Windows 2008 has yet to be successful.
 
I believe that if you check the compatibility chart you'll see that this is not yet supported - only Windows 2008 clients are currently supported. Win 2k8 as a server won't be supported until the next major release and that's still a long way off (2nd half of '09).
