Server 2008 R2 Core Edition

Couple really helpful features were added to Server 2008 R2 Core, sconfig and iscscicpl.
sconfig comes from the Hyper-V Server 2008 free download, it is a nice configuration utility that handles many of the initial setup tasks needed for the server. Having these in a nice easy to use group makes the initial IP, naming, domain membership as well as remote access available very nice.
iscscicpl is the GUI iSCSI initiator interface that was available only in Server 2008 full install editions. This now makes connecting and configuring iSCSI SAN storage a breeze.
