FP 2003 and Sharepoint Team Services with W2k Server?

FrontPage 2003 and Sharepoint Team Services with Windows
2000 Server?

I'm trying to use my FrontPage 2003 and Windows 2000
Server and SQL Server 2000 to set up a Team Services
site.

look great. But if I cannot sell my employer on upgrading
from Win2kServer
to Windows Server 2003, I cannot follow those
instructions.

And other Team Services articles I find only apply to
FrontPage 2002, not
to FP03. For example, my FP03 CD does not have
a "setupse.exe from the
SharePt folder" that the FrontPage 2002 articles tell you
about.

I did a paid support e-mail to Microsoft last week, but
have received no
reply:

I bought FP03 specifically to create a SharePoint Team
Site. There is a
website template to create one. But when I specify the
location of my web
site, I get a message that "This Web site must be created
on a server that
is running SharePoint Services from Microsoft. Please
choose another
location. If you do not have a Web site hosting service,
find one that
supports FrontPage or Windows SharePoint Services by
using the Web
Presence search page."

My only places to put a team site is on a Yahoo web host
or on a Windows
2000 Server. HELP, please!

The FP2003 WSS templates are designed for WSS running on Win2003 server
Believe the older SPS 1.0 may be supported on Win2000
Try asking at the SPS newsgroup:
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.sharepoint.teamservices (Usability)
Or the WSS newsgroup:
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.sharepoint.windowsservices
