2003 SBS can't "trust" win3k or NT domains

[Bill Lampman]

Hi,

I'm trying to add 2003SBS into an already existing network. NT server
(domain A) can
access win2k advanced server (domain B) and vice-versa. SBS (domain C)
cannot set up
trusts between A and B...The error I get from the Trust Wizard is:

---------------
The trust relationship cannot be created because the following error
occured:

The operation failed. The error is: This operation is not supported on a
computer running
Windows Server 2003 for Small Business Server.
---------------

What am I doing wrong ? I have tried setting up the trust relationships
manually; that
worked perfectly between w2k and NT. The same technique failed with SBS. I
tried
using the Trust Wizard without having the manual trusts already set up and
got the
message above. Any help or a point in the right direction toward
documentation would be
greatly appreciated.

SBS is especial -
Check:
Migrating from Small Business Server 2000 or Windows 2000 Server

So what part of the mesage is unclear? Trusts are not supported on SBS. You
need standard or enterprise. Sux, huh? It also won't be a terminal server.

As I'm sure you can see for yourself by now, Windows simply sucks!

System failure is not an option.
It comes bundled with Windows.
