just wondering if there are any issues with windows server 2003
service pack 2. I have one AD domain with 3 domain controllers on
server 2003 with no service packs on the DC's. The server i want to
upgrade is a member server running sql server 2000. The other
applications on it are dell openmanage, arcserver backup agent,
adaptec storage manager, and visual C++ 6.0. Just wondering if win
server 2k3 sp2 plays nice with all of those. The release notes don't
say anything about them. Thanks
 
Hello,

I could find an issue about the SP2 for 2003 & SQL 2000:

I got a friend that had troubles with a dell server (no more network).

We had an issue with ISA 2006.

You should start with the Service Pack 1.
Are you looking after a new functionality from the SP2 ?

I deployed a few sp2 servers on dell hardware and sql 2000 and didn't have
any issues.

the case i catched is a bit specific:
Apparently, if you have an out of date version of the file DBNETLIB.dll ,the
Service Pack 2 disables TCP/IP access to MS SQL Server.
This is a defense against the Slammer worm. (some ugly work around by
Microsoft a have to say...)

I had trouble with a print server. Several HP and Xerox printers wouldn't
connect until I disabled their SNMP on the port options.

Otherwise I've updated two domain controllers without issue.

I recall seeing some issues where people used the downloaded version of the
SP2, and recommended using the version that is downloaded from Automatic
Updates. I don't recall what the issues where, but I've always used the AU
version....
