I think it has to be in standard - Active Directory uses it in replication. I'll ask MSFT and see if I can get a definitive reply (and get the website fixed). Regards, Michael B.

But what I'm saying is that I can run DFS-R on R2 STANDARD (we are running that on most servers). The chart says you have to get WS08 ENTERPRISE to run the same (albeit improved/updated) feature?

Right now, WS03 R2 Standard does what I think they are saying is only available on WS08 Enterprise? That's could mean about 20 server upgrades for us just for DFS... -Bonnie From: Kennedy, Jim [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 20, 2008 12:13 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: 2008 standard vs. enterprise Does this chart sum up the differences between Standard and Enterprise, anything the chart is missing. I need to spend my budget before April 18th. This is on the list for a summer project but I just found out about the new deadline for PO's. So I need to decide fast. I intend to just upgrade our six DC's for now. They are just DC's/DHCP and DNS. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2008/en/us/compare-specs.aspx ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
