You have to transfer ALL four FMSO roles to SBS. That is a requirement.
SBS has to be a GC as well. Active Directory does allow multiple global catalog servers though, so you do *not* need to disable it on the other server. Should cover everything.
Oh, as far as other things you should do? Work on transferring DHCP to SBS. ;)

I am adding a SBS2003 server to an existing network.
I have and will follow http://support.microsoft.com/kb/884453
I had an SBS on this network once before (it was at one point, the
only AD)... but after another server (Server 2003 - NOT an SBS) was
added a problem occurred where users couldn't connect to the network
unless the SBS server was up. I had set the Server2003 was AD/GC
I need to make sure that users can login and access the other server,
even if for some reason the SBS becomes unavailable.
DHCP is on the router (I know, I know...)
I'll continue to run DNS on both servers.
Do I _have_ to disable the GC on the Server2003?
Is there anything else I should do?
FWIW, the reason is that the primary focus of the SBS is the 40
hour/week back office, whereas the Server2003 supports the 7day/18hour
retail side.
Thanks,
Dagwood
