"There is no second server license that is included with SBS 2003 premium (R2 or SP1 edition). The second server license they are referring to is included with SBS 2008 premium."

Justsomeguy, I am aware that there was no sercond server licence included in SBS 2003 R1 or R2. However you were able to purchase a 2003 Server licence, and a Exchange Server licence and add to the SBS 2003 Premium setup. This did NOT require the purhcase of additional CALS. thus allowing 2 exhange servers to the setup for distrbution across WAN sites. I am trying to confirm if this type of setup is still possible and if I will need to buy any additional CALS to implement it.

"I'm wondering if I will be able to run Dynamics Hosted Ed. on this... Withouth limitation that is on SBS2003 today, where you get workgroup sql.

Are, I also run DynamicsAX (currently v3) and would also be interested in our options for dynamics installations in SBS. We are planning to upgrage to DynamicsAX 2009 in Feb 2009.

Does that mean like under SBS 2003 R2 , I can add a second exchange server to SBS Premium by JUST purchasing a Exchange 2007 SERVER licence and run it on the second server liceence included with SBD premium? I am just trying to clarify what licences / CALS I will need. thanks

Skygazer,

With the proper licenses you can add additional Windows and Exchange servers to an SBS 2008 environment. In fact the premium edition of SBS 2008 includes a second server OS.

Marc,

SBS 2008 is 64-bit only as Exchange 2007 is 64-bit only.
