Hello
I have an interview for a junior DBA job this week and have been doing various online training and reading.
Tha manager doing the interview told me there is a server (owned by Microsoft?) that you can VPN to and do a practise SQL Server installation. He didn't know how to find it.
I've searched and searched but can't find it.
Does anyone know where it is please?
Thanks very much

Never heard of it myself 🙂 You can always download trial software from MS as an alternative.

I'll try that, thanks.
I have the free Express version already but want to try a more hefty installation.
Thanks again

There are the Microsoft TechNet Virtual Labs. I think you need to have a subscription to TechNet to be able to use them. The URL is here if you want to give it a try anyway:

You can also get the Sql Server 2005 Developers Edition for $50. It has all the functionality of Enterprise Edition but is to only be used for development and not in production.
