I have a customer that is using Windows SBS 2003 and they are close to 75 users. What is the definition of 75 users? Is it users setup in active directory? What happens when the 75 user limit is exceeded?

When you add users to SBS ,you use license keys.
If you do a swing migration,the initial licenses remain in place and the FSMO role of the SBS server needing to be the root server no longer applies.

How are you running 75 users off of one SBS box?
Usually the hardware starts to slow everything down when you hit 50.

The initial setup of SBS was done by a local computer vendor/consultant. he did no setup IIS, Sharepoint, FTP, or Exchange, so the server is basically used for active directory with a small business ERP system and file storage This may be why it not real slow, it's not fast either.... I am trying to convince them that they need to migrate.
