Using 2000 SBS on a 2003 Standard Domain



I have a situation where we have outgrown a Windows 2000 SBS Server. We
have about 50 clients, 9 VPN connections, print & file sharing and spam
filtering on top of all of the other SBS functions & we are running out
of drive space fast. We have added new drives already and at this
point it is not an option to add more drives. What I would like to do
is add a new Windows 2003 Standard Edition Server as the PDC to do AD,
DHCP, DNS, VPNs Print and File sharing and then keep the 2000 SBS
server to just handle exchange and spam filtering and disable all other
features. I do understand that the 2000 server cannot run as a BDC and
will not share the AD. What sort of problems am I going to run into by
doing this?
