Hi all, I am redoing a churches small network of about 21 computers (currently on a hodgepodge home net setup) .
Is there a good book for me to help guide me as I install SBS 2003r2 and setup the entire network. Exchange included?
Also any online articles would be nice too!

Mariëtte Knap Smallbizserver.Net AdministratorMission accomplished. We have joined the branch office to our SBS 2003 Headquarters and have the same user experience on the branch office as we have on our local  network at the Headquarters. Want to know how?

The articles here are mostly all you need. But for general understanding of what's going on I have 2 that I refer to all the time it seems:

Eriq's book: http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Small-Business-Server-Unleashed/dp/0672328054/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1208695641&sr=1-2 

The Dummys book for Server 2003: http://www.amazon.com/Windows-Server-2003-Dummies-Tittel/dp/0764516337/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1208695999&sr=1-6

I don't think they have an SBS version of the Dummy's book, but the 2003 Server book does a decent job of taking you thru the basics. And Eriq's book covers SBS. I started my system at about ground zero with just a lot of years of DOS and Windows experience, no real modern server experience. Those books and the articles on this site and the message board here have been mostly all I've needed. Once in awhile if you can't get an answer here try the Microsoft Technet Community. And a great resource when you are trying to get your remote and Exchange working is www.dnsstuff.com.
