I love the 1st time setup screen - with the remembered "checkbox" - As we do rarely install & activate all 1 shot, this checklist is really nice.
[Home > Notification Server Management > First Time Setup]
There are some missings, and probably some primary "must do" & secondary "nice to do" should be done.

It is just a pitty this screens keep a bug regarding the "inventory" & "Windows patch" parts, they are not able to keep the "checks" :-(

So don't loose time to check "Inventory", "Patch Management": it will never remember them...

Oh, also, don't think the latest SP2 will solve, it is not. Moreover, now when you click any links, this is emptying the "1st time setup", you have to go back from the menu, loosing your check box...

Hey Symantec - Does SP should not correct & improve your softwares ? ;-)
