I want to upgrade Windows 2000 to Windows 2003 over Terminal Services.
Is this possible? I am having a terrible time finding a discussion on
this.

thanks
Joatman
 
You mean from within a TS session?
I don't know if this is even possible, but I would strongly advise
against it.
If it is possible at all, then I guess it would have to be an
unattended setup, with a pre-configured unattend.txt file.

Yes. I need to upgrade a bunch of servers that are in another city. I
can go there and do it, but it will take three or four trips because
they can't all be upgraded at once. If I get it working using a
local version with the unattended setup is it likely to work with the
production servers?
 
I've no idea. You'll have to test the process thoroughly.

Actually, I never ever upgrade any server OS.
I always perform a fresh install from scratch.
