Whats the difference between "Small Business Server 2003" & "Server 2003 for Small Business Server"?

They bought "Microsoft Windows Server 2003 for Small Business" in addition to an extra set of licenses that is for "Microsoft Windows Small Business Server 2003" I am realizing that there is a difference between "Small Business Server" and "Server FOR Small Business". What is the difference and most importantly what is "Server FOR small Business" used for? Currently my server is running Server 2003 for small business server. This is my first built server and network but i have built over 25PC's so am somewhat familiar with hardware and Windows OS. Can anyone help me? So far it is confirmed that what I have allows only 15 user clients and geared toward file and print sharing. It is also a seperate OS from Small Business Server 2003.

How do you change the domain on Microsoft Windows Small Business Server 2003? I've got SBS2003 running on a server. When we set it up we used a xxxx.local domain and that's not what I want anymore. I want to run it as a normal domain (a different one than is used right now) and I'm not sure how to change it other than starting over with a new reinstall which I think is a bad idea. So, can I make some changes to point the server to a new domain name that will change Exchange, Sharepoint, etc.? I'm trying to make it so that I can have a Sharepoint website be external (http://www.xxxx.com/sharepoint or something) and also change the domain that Exchange references. I used to have a business and that's the domain that's being used but now I want to change it to something else. Any help is appreciated.

I was trying to reinstall OS when loading from CD-ROM but in one of the first dialogs I got a message that my hard drives were not found. Will it make a difference if I try to reinstall OS from Safe Mode? Yes they are SATA drives. And no, I haven't fixed the "Applying computer settings" yet. Actually I tried to reinstall APC server and console in safe mode, but next time I tried to load server I got a message that I have to run "Directory Services Restore Mode". It's so messed up, I have no idea what to do now. Data is not a problem either, it's a brand new server, not even connected to other workstations yet.

Can Small business server 2003 also be a pop3 server? Hello, I currently have Small Business Server 2003. Right now I have a problem setting up the Microsoft Exchange Server. I bought a domain name from no-ip.com. Now I can send and receive email no problem from the remote Outlook 2003 from the server’s site. But now I want to use the same account on my Outlook 2003 which is on my computer not the server. After I type in the account information I hit the test button. It comes back saying SMTP connection successful. But the pop3 account it says no connection found and to check port settings. I opened the 110 port on the router firewall and rechecked the user name and password along with the domain name; everything is correct. Like I said the SMTP part works great. Its just setting up the pop3. So my question is am I just overlooking something simple or is SBS 2003 not a pop3 server and do I need to find extra software to make it become a pop3 server? Thanks Mike Ok, got it going thank you very much! I am using outlook 2003 because I know not everyone uses exchange and pop3 and smtp setting are more popular. But now a new problem, lol. After I hit send the server takes the mail but does not send it out. Just sits in one of the folders. What am I over looking now any ideas? I looked on yahoo for more answers but no luck. Thanks again! Mike
Windows Small Business Server 2003 Cache Issue. Help!!!? We have a server at work running Windows Small Business Server 2003 that is located behind a hardware firewall. We have 8 workstations going through the server before working their way out to the internet. We have been having a problem with getting older versions of websites on our computers when people outside our network can see the newer version. For example, we upload data to an outside computer system that works in tandem with our main company software. However, when we then go to that website through Firefox or IE, the new information does not appear to be there, but if I call someone at home and have them check the website, it's updated. I can only assume it's some sort of cache problem here at work, but I have no idea how to remedy the situation. Anyone else have any idea?

Is Windows 2003 Small Business Server STILL just Windows 2003 Server? I want to take exam 70-290, but I also want to purchase my own copy of Windows 2003 server to practice. I was thinking of buying it here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330295378134 My Question is: Does the "Small Business" version remove any core functionality or water it down at all? can this version also function as a domain controller as well?

Windows Small Business Server 2003 - Where to get from now? Bought a legitimate copy of Windows Small Business Server 2003 Premium R2 for around $1k but it was not finding any hard drives so I started reading abut Installation Requirements that say SBS 2003 R2 requires SBS 2003 SP1 (which is completely non-sense to me but ...)

Would a Trial Version be available somewhere I can download to move on to SBS 2003 R2? Please suggest what are my options ... Thanks and Regards, QAData

Cannot Access Computer! Small Business Server 2003? I am running Small Business Server 2003. I use to be able to access my server from another computer but then it blocked me out for some odd reason. Could this have something to do with the firewall configuration? I did this before no one else is running it. I can still logon and access anything from the server but if i try to access it from another computer if will not let me. For example i just added a new computer on the network, and i could access the copmuter just perfectly and fine but after about an hour it kicks me off is this a firewall feature? I did not go to the http://Server_Name/ConnectComputer does this affect anything?
