How to setup a Company Intranet in Windows SBS 2003

I know this answer could have been achieved through searches, but I want the best, effective, and simplest way to setup an Intranet on my company network (Windows SBS 2003 + 25 XP/7 workstations). A detailed tutorial or step-by-step would be helpful...

Thank you in advance

Hi meko72, thank you for a quick reply. I'll try this in a few hours hands-on. One quick question, if the site is just http://newsite for example, why do I need to *buy* the domain name for that? Isn't an intranet, exclusively private and internal to the company? By purchasing a domain name and tying it into the external web, isn't that more of an extranet? Pardon the ignorance if I am off base, but I just want to clarify what I'm looking for-

1. A private internal website for my employees to view only (posting memos, company news, etc.)
2. I don't want anyone from the outside LAN to ever access this intranet.
3. I am using Windows SBS 2003

Yes your correct, You dont have to buy the domain name.

Usually when you create a internal site the address is something like Http://fs001/intenal web

Do you not have sharepoint running that is part of SBS??
