Hello All - I ran across a situation where a new client running Server 2008 would like to be able to use his old sharepoint information from an SBS 2003 installation. &nbsp;I do have a complete backup of the entire sbs installation and have verified the backup to be complete. &nbsp;I tried to restore the sbs installation so I could export it but ran into a &quot;computer disk hardware configuration problem&quot;. &nbsp;I have run into this error previously and the cause was the disk I was trying to restore to was not large enough. &nbsp;This is not the case this time around as I am trying to restore to a 2tb drive and the total size of recovery is only 66gb. &nbsp;I found one document that may indicate the original sever to be a dell poweredge 840 with a 480 GB RAID 5 with a Pentium D board.<br />
<br />
Is there a way I can install Sharepoint on the Server 2008 box and then import the companyweb data from the sbs backup. &nbsp;I'm not sure how to proceed. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance for all your help.

SBS 2003 Sharepoint on Server 2008

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).

IIS is Internet Information Services, the web server included with Windows Server operating systems. All current versions are built on a modular architecture; modules can be added or removed individually so that those required for specific functionality are installed. The full installation of IIS includes HTTP, security, content, compression, caching, logging and diagnostics.

Microsoft IIS Web Server

Microsoft Sharepoint is a software platform and family of software products used for collaboration and web publishing combined. These capabilities include developing web sites, portals, intranets, content management systems, search engines, wikis, blogs, and other tools for business intelligence and collaboration. SharePoint has a Microsoft Office-like interface, and it is closely integrated with the Office suite.
