Guest Curious_2k3 Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 I have upgraded my servers to SP2, and now there is no GPMC to use. Can the GPMC with SP1 be used when the servers are at SP2? I would not want to risk any issued as they are al domain controllers. Thanks Curious
Guest Bruce Sanderson Posted July 31, 2007 Posted July 31, 2007 Re: Is GPMC with SP1 compatible on Server 2003 at SP2? GPMC with SP1 is the latest available for Windows prior to Vista; it works fine with 2003 SP2. You don't need to install and run GPMC on a domain controller - you can install and use it from any server or workstation (e.g. Windows XP). If you choose do this, you may want to import the ADM files that come with 2003 SP2. Vista Ultimate (and I think Enterprise and Business) come with GPMC already installed.
