I have just had a look and the problem is i cannot
connect to the MSDE. I have not installed SQL on it's
own, rather the entire SBS 2003 on it's own. What happens
when i want to convert the Website i made into a
Sharepoint Site i am told to go to Sharepoint Central
Administration and upgrade the site.

I open Sharepoint Central Administration and i am taken
to "Set Configuration Database Server". This is where i
am getting stuck.

I was assuming that using MSDE it was all done for me...

Can anyone help?
