Re: how to determine which service packs installed

Remember there is a very specific SBS 2003 SP1 which includes Windows 2003
SP1 and other components. You definitely want to install that as until you
do you are running SP0 which is no longer supported. Exchange SP2 can be
substituted for SP1. Theoretically you can also substitute Windows 2003 SP2
for SP 1, but with all the potential issues that might be caused with SP2
I'd personally install SP1 first, make sure everything is running ok, and
then go on to SP2.

I downloaded it but it fails to install on the server. It generates the
following message: "Failed to install catalog files." I checked, and
apparently we don't have our server upgraded to SP1 (which I assume is why
the BPA tool fails to install). Also, Exchange shows the version as
6.5.7226.0 with no SP's listed. Is it safe to go ahead and update both the
server and exchange?

Is there any specific order in which SP2 for Server 2003 and SP2 for
Exchange should be installed, or any other patches, etc. which should be
done before these upgrades.

Mark,
Go to 'My Computer' and select 'Help | About Windows'. You should see
there if WinSrv2k3 SP2 is installed. Then under Advanced Management
select Exchange | Servers. On the right panel, under 'Server Version'
it should see the version number and the SP installed

We have an SBS 2003 box, and I would like to upgrade Exchange 2003 to
SP2, as well as install SP2 for Server 2003. How can I check which
service pack versions are already installed, and also, what is the
best way for going about this upgrade before I get in over my head.
We do make full tape backups every night, including Exchange.
