Hi guys i need to manage my server with windows 2003 enterprise from a client of LAN, how can i do?

Install the Admin Pack from the 2003 Server Install media.

You want to use one of your workstation to manage one of your server on your LAN ?

Or do you mean that you are outside your network and you want to manage your server ?

Sorry, I'm not sure what you're asking.

If you're on the inside, I will suggest TightVNC (

http://www.tightvnc.com).

It's free and small. I use it everyday.

If you're outside your network, you can use TightVNC after you're connet by VPN. This is what I do when I'm home and need to do something on a server.

i need to manage the server from a client of local network and not outside.
i must install adminpak.msi on server or on the clients?

Install the Adminpak on the administrators PC then you can manage your servers from there.

Use Remote Desktop either on the lan or via a VPN connection.
