We are running w2000 terminal server with citrix xpe, all our other servers
in the farm are running w2003 with citrix xpe.
Has anyone experienced major problems uplifting a 2000 box onto 2003?


Thank in advance

Ed

I would not do this, or recommend it. If you've ever upgraded a workstation
with software installed from 2000 to XP then you know the kinds of issues
you're facing. It will take less time and provide better results to do a
clean install of 2003 + CPS + Apps then the upgrade the OS and try to fix all
of the little problems that occur.

I think you'll be much happier. Plus, it's always nice to have a newly
planned, tested build to reference.
