Okay - a two-two tie. Here's the casting vote.
I am by no means a domain/server whizz but I have set up SBS 2003 for 5 of
my clients and they all think I'm a genius! They each use SBS features in
different ways but all are very happy.
SBS is very easy to set up as long as you do a bit of homework and lurk on
this board when you have questions. The results will far outweigh any fears
you had about setting up a domain.

workgroup network to an SBS domain network. I did allot of reading before
doing it but I have not regretted the move. Like Dirk-Thomas mentioned the
wizards "do the walking" for you. But I understand that I am not everyone.

Guys,
I don't understand the issue, the wizards will walk you through the rest.
It will actually be better and easier to support/maintain etc... when
setup this way. You will get monitoring, security, easy setup of clients
to the network... etc.. you must have read some of the benefits before you
purchased it (except, as is evident by this thread, for the
limitations)... And yes it must be so by design (documented)... If you
wanted workgroup then perhaps plain Windows 2003 Server would have been a
better choice.
Anyway, it probably will/would have taken less time to complete the
install properly than deal with the shutdowns and researching a way around
the limitations. Truly just finish the installation... you will be much
happier with the results than if you could get it to run in workgroup only
mode.

I am experiencing the same problem. Only have 5 computers int he
workgroup
and would much rather avoid the DC thing. Please help!

You need to fully complete the SBS install and make it a domain

to stop this. This is by design.

Hi I just finished a simple workgroup install of SBS 2003. Now the
server
is
shutting down about every 3-4 hours. It is a graceful shutdown,
applications
closed, network connection released ect. It is very disruptive. It
is
also
happening on the clone server used to backup data and test the
configuration
of the production server. Any insights.
