Hi Tom,
Thanks for you reply. So you mean even the small business server doesnot
join the current workgroup because it is a domain controller, they are all on
the tcp/ip now, the PCs in the current workgroup can access the IIS server
which is on the Small business server 2003?
Because I asked the technical support for the Microsoft small business
server 2003, I was told "no. They need to be behind the SBS. If you want them
to use IIS, you have to have an SBS network set up ..... and then to get your
other clients to connect, they need to have a workgroup setup on a domain
client. You need router .... SBS ..... windows xp pro ..... (seperate
netowrk)router ...... other clients."

So, is he wrong?
Thanks very much for your help.
Cindy
