Does anyone have a copy of Windows server 2000 and 2003 on an FTP that I can download. I want to learn the in's and out's of these programs so I need to set a network at home to play with.

Please don't give me a hard time about pirated software, we almost all cheat in some way (tax's!) and this is for learning not selling.

You could you email me info so it's not all over the site.
Thank you

"...this is for learning not selling."

The problem with that is no one knows who you really are or your intentions. You could be telling the truth about that or not. So if you were honest or masking other intentions, both fronts appear identical in this environment. So someone could be giving you a copy for purely research purposes, or for commerical ones. And who would know to which use you applied it to? You see the problem with just giving copies away, even with the best of intentions - at some point there is no way to make any money at all and the product goes away or becomes incredibly expensive.

"we almost all cheat in some way"

Try cheating in some way that doesn't hurt others (including your taxes).

Companies have a way for you to try things out. There is a trial version of 2003 with a time limit of 180 days.
