I'm not gonna disagree with you either, but I'm out of the loop on that topic. Have you got references, or are you hearing internal company whisperings? I've seen a lot of misunderstanding of the (poorly written) documentation of this switch. Are you talking about a Win2k Advanced Server machine with 2gb, or regular W2k server? My lab servers are old Compaq 1600s that would die of shock if they ever found out a machine could have 2gb RAM, so I can't test it...

Subject: Re: Exchange 2000 Ent require Win2K Server Advanced? Not to disagree with you Tom (not I!), but there's been a lot of talk lately about the /3GB switch helping performance, even on systems with 2GB of RAM. So A/S might be good, but, as you said, probably isn't necessary.

Win2k Server is fine. As long as you're happy with 4 or less CPUs and 4 or less GB of system RAM. The only reason to go to Advanced is to increase to 8cpus, 8GB RAM, clustering. http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/serverfamily/default.asp > -----Original Message----- > From: Orin Rehorst [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Posted At: Tuesday, August 13, 2002 05:21 PM > Posted To: MSExchange Mailing List > Conversation: Exchange 2000 Ent require Win2K Server Advanced? > Subject: Exchange 2000 Ent require Win2K Server Advanced? > > > Exchange 2000 Net require Win2K Server Advanced, or will Win2k Server > standard do?
