GOAL:
Does Progress support Microsoft Windows Small Business Server 2000?
GOAL:
Does Progress support Microsoft Windows Small Business Server 2003?
GOAL:
Is Progress certified Microsoft Windows Small Business Server 2011?
GOAL:
Does Progress support Microsoft SBS ?
FACT(s) (Environment):
Windows Server 2000
Windows Server 2003
Windows Small Business Server
Windows SBS 2011
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x
Windows Server 2008
FIX:
Small Business Server (SBS) is based on the Microsoft Windows 2000/2003/2008 Server. Service packs are interchangeable between Windows 2000/2003/2008 and SBS which is an indication that this is not a new operating system. The level of SQL Server DBMS is 'Microsoft SQL Server 2000' so there are no problems on the DataServer front. A certified version of progress for that level of Windows must be installed.
However 'officially' SBS support will not be in the availability guide, as an SBS client supports Windows 95, which Progress 9.1D does not.
In summary then, SBS is not officially supported as there are some differences between it and Windows 2000/2003/2008. However it appears that Progress will behave on SBS as it does on Windows 2000/2003/2008.
If a problem appeared on SBS /Progress that could be reproduced on Progress /Windows 2000/2003/2008 then we would provide support.
