Hi, we're starting a DNN project on Monday and have never used it before.  In fact we've never developed in .NET either!!  We have hosting with MSSQL.

Can I just ask, is it hard for a newbie?  It's just a brochure site. 

Our experience is in PHP, probably to advanced / guru level.  We have extensive experience with Joomla, which can be built without PHP knowledge.  We're good with CSS and general template building.  We are up for a challange and the money that comes with it!!

If we get stuck, we do have .NET developers who we can pass the job on to but we would like to have a go ourselves, first.  And hopefully do the whole thing.

Regards,
Jon.

Sebastien is spot on. .Net dev skills aren't relevant to the install and configure process, but understanding which security accounts the various IIS processes run under, and knowing your NTFS permisions, will come in handy if you have any problems.

Good luck!
