Re: Server Replacement

You may need to go with the "Windows Small Business Server 2003 Transition
Pack" if you want to separate the Windos Small Business Server components

Windows Small Business Server 2003 limits (e.g. 75 Client Access License
(CAL) limit, no Active Directory trusts (single domain environment only),
and CAL enforcement).
