Hi,<br />
<br />
Is there an easy way to check to see if a Windows 7 workstation on the network is 64-bit from the SBS 2008 server? I looked at the computer info that comes up when you double-click a computer in the SBS console (advanced mode), and I looked at the computer info in ADUC, but both just give the OS type and SP level. I can get the info by opening computer management on the server, connecting to a workstation, and sifting through the boot messages in the workstation's event logs, but I'm hoping there's something quicker.<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />
Andrew

Check workstation OS version from SBS 2008 server

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).

Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2, based on the Microsoft Vista codebase, is the last 32-bit server operating system released by Microsoft. It has a number of versions, including including Foundation, Standard, Enterprise, Datacenter, Web, HPC Server, Itanium and Storage; new features included server core installation and Hyper-V.
