The 2nd machine is meant to be a dedicated box for SQL. You could install AD on it, or install 3 or 4 machines all being a DC. The roles all have to stay on the SBS box though. SBS does not limit the number of DC's you can have in a single domain. No idea about 2000, we don't have any 2000 boxes still in production anywhere.

SBS 2008 just looks like it adds another Server 2008 license and SQL Server. I doubt we'll ever use SQL server. However, wanting redundancy, can we still keep our 2000 servers on-board, and upgrade the schema so they can stay in the replication loop? If not, will that second Server 2008 in Premium keep a replica of the AD? Phillip Partipilo Parametric Solutions Inc.
