Rather than write a long and boring post about the benefits of SBS 2003,
I'll just say that I hope you consider the alternative of upgrading. You'll
get RWW, which should be a great solution to your remote access needs, but
also IMO it's just time to get off of the 2K platform. There are already
patch issues with Win2K (DST patches come to mind), and I'd recommend
getting current for security reasons if nothing else.
