Re: new installation questions..

Though Lee Li is _mostly_ accurate SBS 2003 setup is complex rather than
complicated, much of the complexity is handled _very nicely_ by the SBS
wizards. Learn to use the wizards and you will conquer SBS.

Take your installation CD's and practice on either a spare PC or in a
virtual environment such as VirtualPC (which just happens to have a thirty
day trial).

Popular opinion suggests most people get their _THIRD_ SBS installation
right. Install it, realise where you went wrong, install it again, and
figure 'I'd like to do _this_ differently', then install it again. and if
you have time, just for the heck of it, install it again. Thee are certain
aspects of _any_ server install which cannot be changed while the server is
in use, it is much better to have gone down an exploratory path than to wish
to fix something 'after the fact'.
