Hello Members,

Lost though still need a partial Assistance!

Microsoft 2000 Advanced Server
Microsoft 2000 Server
Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server

Would like to know if all of these can be used independently? or not?
Are all of these OS's or are there an enchancement like an add-on to the
original OS installed.

My Client currently has Microsoft 2000 Server will i benefit going to
Advance Server ? Also i would like to implement their Outlook 2007 together
with everyone in the company sharing, calendar, email, address book, etc.

Or can i just purchase Exchange Server and will do everything 2000 Server
will do?

Also is there a way to find out how many Cal Licenses they currently have by
looking at the OS. Since they are 9 and growing to 25 so not sure if we need
to buy more cal's or not?

Any Help would be great.

You would be better served by asking in the Server groups. Windows XP is
not a server Operating system.

The best service that you can possibly provide your client is to send that
client to a qualified network administrator.

Answers to your questions asre availble at Microsoft.com (also Barnes and
Noble Bookstore) - Yes and No are involved - yes they are all server Oss -
no - Exchange is not stand-alone - to share stuff like calendars, etc.
requires Exchange and, usually, Sharepoint Server.

Advance versus standard - depends on company requirements - time to conside
Windows Server 2003 (or wait on Windows Server 2008).

If 75, or less, worksatations are involved, Windows Small Buiness Server is
the answer - premiun edition includes Exchange, Sharepoint and SQL Database
Servers..
