Were a small office (15 people) that to this point have been using win2000
server on a peer to peer type network.

We just got 2003 server and I am getting the time to begin setting up this
network.

I've fiddled with it before, but want to make sure I don't miss anything.

Does anyone have any resources / websites that have a step by step list of
setting up a Windows 2003 Server Network.

We want to include the following things:

1. File sharing
2. Remote access (VPN???)
3. I'd like to have one computer download the windows update and then serve
that to the rest of the computers.

Any tips would be great!
