    Windows home Premium - RDP? IIS? SQL 2008?


    Anybody know what the limitation of using Windows 7 Home Premium as a test home web server might be?

    Can I host RDP and remote into the machine?
    Host IIS sites?
    SQL 2008 Express?

    Any limits to these products as well? I'm reqding sql 2008 Express has a limation of 1 processor and 4gb per DB. Does this mean I can install it on a quad core, but it will only use one processor?

    any reason I can't insall the fullversion of SQL 2008 on Windows 7 home premium?

    Thanks.

    You cannot host RDP sessions with home premium.

    Yes, to both of the other products.

    I've run into some issues getting SQL 2008 enterprise on my windows 7 x64 pro machine. Now on my 5 install attempt. WMI MOF issues.

    SQL 2008 x64 on Windows 7 x64 Pro - MOF compiler could not connect with the WMI Server - but I do have reminants of prior installs

    Thanks for any help or information.
