If you try to create an alert in a Document Library or on a list, you might get a No access message. One possible cause is that you have only permissions (Read, Contribute or Full) on this list/library. In that case you have on the site, where the library is located only Limited Access. This is not enough. The alerts are not stored in the list but on the site (SPWeb). Therefore you need access rights on the web.

Dienstag, Februar 15th, 2011
If you try to send a link of a document in a doclib, your mail client might open and shows only Sample instead of the link.
Maybe you can correct this, when you add NTLM to the Enabled Providers of the Windows Authentication of the website that belongs to your Webapplication.
April Cumulative Update Packages for SharePoint
Donnerstag, Mai 14th, 2009I was very disappointed that the service pack 2 includes only the February Update (plus some stsadm-extensions) and not the April update. And so, some weeks after SP2 the next update was released

SharePoint and virtual servers
Donnerstag, August 21st, 2008SharePoint is now also supported if you install it on a virtual server infrastructure.

But I am missing VMWare in the list of the support partners
