I’m currently building a media/ game server that will be operating on the W2003Server OS and I was wondering if anyone could suggest a descent place I can go and learn about 2003 server. I know it has all kinds of cool options and I’ve only begun to play with it. Any tips?

Cafe Society wasn’t a good fit for this thread, so I moved it to IMHO. You should get better responses this way.
