Windows SBS 2003 vs Windows Server 2003 Standard

I can not find a breakdown of the deifferences anywhere. Does anyone know where to find one? I'm assuming SBS 2003 is Windows Server 2003 with less functionality?.... I just want to know the differences. THanks a bunch.

So it it doenst offer the same wizards and ways to customize Server 2003 Standard?? It's done differently?

by techrep

Same MMCs as found in Standard but the Wizards make standard tasks easier...when you add a user in ADUC you then have to create a mailbox, add to various groups, add to dist lists etc etc. The new user wizard kinda bundles things together - even grant access to the builtin Sharepoint site.

Suggest you look at the MS SBS 2003 R2 site - documentation is fairly comprehensive and explains the restrictions and benefits much better than I can...

Thanks, but is there any documentation that actually compares the two side by side?
