    Installing SP2 on windows 2003 Standard Edition R2

    Hi

    We have a windows 2003 server Standard Edition R2 SP1 which is the only server in school.

    Now i was wondering if it is quite easy enough to install SP2 without any known issues?This server does handle Exchange with our own certificate issued! Now would the SP install affect any of this?

    Thanks

    We don't have exchange on our single server, but SP2 went on without issue.

    I did backup thoroughly before I started and then cross my fingers, etc!
