Hello Manfred, thank you for your contribution..
I have all the links for SP2 issues on SBS... we have a 20 point checklist
when installing SP2... we still haven't finished installing it on all
servers and this NEW server install issues have not given us much
confidence. Issues are on the SBS Premium servers and its not consistent,
some install fine some have certain errors and others have other errors.
Comments made, trying to justify SP2 issues from other posters mention it
could be original configuration and maybe an error was already sitting on
the server and this SP2 just highlights it, of course they are just
reiterating comments from Msoft KBs... Sorry but thats ' baloney ' this is a
complete new install and nothing was configured, after install we installed
SP2 immediately and then all windows updates.
After uninstalling SP2 numerous times ( applying all mentioned 'fixes') the
recent issue was outlook not connecting to Exchange. Yes I did the
EnableRSS=0 but then this KB is out of date as the registry key EnableRSS
the registry entry was already in the registry, how this appeared, previous
install of SP2 or ISA SP3, I dont know... TThe KB mentioning about the
EnableRSS=0 refers to ISA SP2, SP3 is out now so reading the KB do we
install SP2 do the registry fix then install SP3.... sorry dont have time to
do all the fixing, testing.
Any how, reading the blogs I found a poster referred to disable RPC in ISA
addins and bingo Outlook now working... now I have to investigate the
implications of this on a working clients server !

Hello Teneo,
Thank you for posting here.
From your post, I understand that after installing Windows 2003 SP2 on SBS
2003, a XP client cannot join the domain. After uninstalling SP2, the
issue
disappeared.
I am really sorry for the inconvenience that you have experienced.
I suggest you refer to following articles to check the known network
issues
that will happen after installing Windows 2003 SP2 on the SBS server and
the resolutions for these problems:
You may experience network-related problems after you install Windows
Server 2003 SP2 or the Scalable Networking Pack
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/936594/
Additional information for your reference:
Best practices and known issues when you install Windows Server 2003
Service Pack 2 on a Windows Small Business Server 2003-based computer
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/939421
Based on current situation, if you are still interested in Windows 2003
SP2, I suggest you try to install Windows 2003 SP2 again on the SBS
server.
After that, please refer to the Best practices to fix the known issues.
I believe SBS 2003 can work with Windows 2003 SP2 compatibly in this way.
If any errors cannot be fixed after performing the steps included in the
Best Practices, please let me know. I will try my best to help you resolve
it.
Again, I am sorry for the inconvenience that you have experiencing.
Best regards,
Manfred Zhuang(MSFT)
