Hi,
Is there a way to find out what version of SBS are you running? (i.e. SBS
Standard, Premium, etc.)
I want to know if a server is running SBS Standard, Premium, etc.
Thanks!

The following batch file will probably tell you. You must remove
all # characters - their only purpose is to mark the start of each
line of code.
#@echo off
#echo > c:\OSVer.vbs Set OSSet =
GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!//./root/cimv2").ExecQuery("select
caption, CSDVersion, SerialNumber from Win32_OperatingSystem")
#echo >>c:\OSVer.vbs For Each OS In OSSet
#echo >>c:\OSVer.vbs wscript.echo "OS=" ^& OS.Caption
#echo >>c:\OSVer.vbs wscript.echo "SP=" ^& OS.CSDVersion
#echo >>c:\OSVer.vbs wscript.echo "Product ID=" ^& OS.SerialNumber
#echo >>c:\OSVer.vbs Next
#cscript //nologo c:\OSVer.vbs
#del c:\OSVer.vbs
Do i just copy the code to NOTEPAD. then save it?. then run it?
How do i get the info?
thanks.

As will all batch files, you must save it to a ".bat" file
before you can run it.

You did not unwrap the lines as I said in my first post.
Remember - each line in my code starts with a # character!

The first line says "@echo off".
The second line starts with "echo" and ends with 'OperatingSystem")'.
It is a very, very long line. The error messages you reported tell
me that you broke it up into several separate lines. The code will
never work unless you unwrap this line correctly.
If you find it difficult to unwrap the lines correctly, use the attached
and renamed zip file. You may have to instruct your news reader
to accept attachments.
