A colleague of mine a couple of years ago ran into problems with 2003
web edition, found that it really tried to lock everything down in an
attempt to be a secure internet server.  Since the server was slotted
for intranet only (behind firewall), he switched to 2003 standard and
found things worked better; he claimed that doing the post-config from
the service pack was still a bit tricky, though, as again, the SP was
attempting to lock things down.

Sorry I can't be more specific, I wasn't involved at the time, was
just something I remember him talking about.

On another note, I feel your pain as I know what it's like to have
Management make retarded decisions after they play golf with a
Microsoft Sales Rep or whatever...
