I am attaching a sbs server 2003 to an existing p2p xp network. In true fashion the companys computers harddrives are completely full. I have installed servers on networks from scratch I have never transitioned to a domain from a workgroup. Is it possible to attach it in the workgroup so I can backup client files to it, if so how do I attach it as a part of the workgroup.<br />
Also the company relies heavily on outlook on each comp. when I transition each client will their data and outlook be migrated to to the new comfiguration that sbs does to each pc?

SBS server 2003

The Microsoft Server topic includes all of the legacy versions of the operating system, including the Windows NT 3.1, NT 3.5, NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 and Windows Home Server versions.

Microsoft Server OS

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).
