You are dumping a different kernal and different capabilities on top of
a working system.
I wouldn't even think about it unless somewhere MS says they support
this.
Of course, if you start the installer from inside a running Win2K server
it will *probably* realize what you are doing and either cancel setup or
let you continue if it is really supported.
Again, if this server is important, I wouldn't even attempt it. In
general I never upgrade a server OS anyway w/o formatting first.
Something stills smells fishy about this situation. SAS blaming MS for
an incompatibility of their software with an MS OS. Sounds like they are
doing something that wasn't supported properly in the first place (if
what they are telling you is correct).

I wouldn't think so either. SAS TS tested this and these are
their
conclusions. Again, SAS TS is quite good. Once you get past the front
line
you are often talking to the designer of the module. I have no reason
to
discount their conclusions.
Anybody know the reason why I can't just install Advanced Server
over top of Server and be done with it?
