Small Business Server 2003 includes many features that making simple active directory tasks quicker. One of the most useful is client setup or joining a computer to the SBS network. Much like with regular active directory, this includes joining to the domain. But in SBS there is a simple wizard that will allow users to simply connect their computers.

• Install client service packs
• Install the assigned software
• Configures Microsoft Outlook
• Migrates user profile information.
