asked on 

windows server 2003 DFS and versions confusion

I have 2 servers in 2 seperate locations that I was going to set up DFS Replication between them.  One server, the newer that I recently setup, has DFS installed w/management and replication.  This server shows in it's system info listing:
Server 2003 Standard Edition
5.2.3790 Service Pack 1 Build 3790
R2
I thought I loaded R2 on this server, this info makes it look like it's not
The second server, is an older server that was updated to 2003 standard before I started working here.
This server shows in it's system info listing:
Server 2003 Standard Edition
5.2.3790 Service Pack 1 Build 3790
 Not Available
This server does not show the DFS intalled in Add and Remove programs under system like the other server.  But when I go to Administrative tools DFS is there.
Is the second server SP1 or SP2 and the version of DFS is not the same as the 1st server?
How do I get the same DFS loaded on the second server, upgrade to R2?

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
