Most SBSers are aware that WSS SP2 and Office 2003 SP2 shipped yesterday. The question inevitably comes up in the forums and newsgroups, "can I install these SPs on SBS?". The answer is an unequivocal 'yes'. Unless there is a specific warning in the readme or "Description of x SP y" Knowledge Base article, it is generally safe to install the service pack on your SBS machine (after making a full backup, of course <g>). Relevant articles:
Windows SharePoint Services (WSS) KB article
Office SP2 download site
While we're at it, my favorite new feature is the Outlook anti-phishing functionality. To get it, you need SP2 and the latest junk e-mail filter updates available here:
