Can I install Project Server 2003 on SBS 2003 ?
(http://www.microsoft.com/office/project/prodinfo/serverreq.mspx). ... or
must be Windows 2000/2003 Server... Potencial problem is SQL database from
SBS...

Thnx

Hi,

Project Server is power hungry. Yes you can install Project Server on SBS
2003 but you won't get all functionality unless you have the premium version
with Analysis Services for SQL Server. If you have several people accessing
Project Server, either expect very slow performance for them or for them and
all SBS users. Effectively therefore it isn't worthwhile.

In a addition if you only have two or three project managers, you don't need
Project Server, there are plenty of other companion tools that will meet
your needs. See www.mvps.org/project/ for examples.

For VBA posts, please use the public.project.developer group.
For any version of Project use public.project
For any version of Project Server use public. project.server

You can install on SBS premium. Be aware that there are variations in the
installation from the official installation guide.
