Ray,

I tied your instructions to the letter, but I am still getting the unpack
error!! I made sure i was not using a copy from cache when running the
sbspackage.exe. I download it, and I created a disk, but all result in same
unpack error. No errors during configure remote access. I am using SBS2003
Premium Eval Verision.
