I was sent an eval copy. I think in came in an issue of Dr. Dobbs. You might be able to get a copy of (Dobbs) with it still.

I've been playing with 2003 server and frankly I'm not impressed. Oh and as far as bieng "secure" out of the box, I have to say poo poo to that notion. As usual, backwards compatability has left the usual sploits behind....*sigh*
Here are some threads that I wrote that deal with my findings:

My next target is AD2.0. They must have put the majority of development efforts in AD because they sure as hell didn't anywhere else.

Some of the things I have read about it is that it doesn't support any version of exchange save for the NEW version that hasn't been released as of yet.
Plus older versions on SQL Server will not run on it either, only the current edition will run.
I don't know if this is security related or if its simply a way to force consumers to upgrade.
I like Windows as my desktop , but I say "No Thank You" on M$ Servers and will be sticking with linux/BSD for my serving needs. (Both security wise and expense wise)
--Just my 2cents

Well someone here just got the brainy idea to upgrade from NT4 to 2003 .NET. I like the server but its a challenge to upgrade everything at once. I have don a 2000 migration and ended up reistalling half the client OS's due to DSclient not playing nice with AD.
win98 + win2k AD = :(
I'll be doing a full migration and then building child sites over the wan.
anyway we have a fileserver running win2003 and seems nice
wonder how long till the next 'bleeding edge' tech comes out :)
