W2K3 SP1, which makes me think that it is more like a feature pack
instead of a new OS, but they don't bill it that way.  You have to
install W2K3 SP1, then upgrade it to R2 (CD2), whole new license key and
everything.

R2 CD1 is just plain old W2K3....

It's just a thing I have that I like all servers to be the same version
whenever possible...  *grin*

 

R2 seems more like a Feature Pack instead of a whole new system, so I'd
expect it wouldn't make a difference.

If your ISA server is already 2003, then what's the point?? Remember
it's a firewall, so the R2 bits are not necessary.

I'm looking at upgrading our servers to 2003 R2, is there any reason I
shouldn't upgrade the ISA server also?
