I was recently working on a Windows server and was having trouble with cross
trusts. When I examined the "Domain Functional Level" the system was set at
it says, "Windows .NET (version 2002)", and also says that this is the
highest possible level for this machine. Anyone know where this comes from?
This machine is suppose to be a Windows 2K3 system, but I've never heard of
this level before.

Thanks,

Bob

Hello Jimmy,

It seems that this is a really old sytem/software. In the beginning of server
2003 they named it 2003.Net server, because .Net framework was included.
Then shortly before releasing the system they changed to just server 2003
naming.

Name games
Windows Server 2003 wasn't the original name for this product family. Here
are the other names Microsoft publicly touted.

January 2000: Code-name "Whistler Server"
April 30, 2001: Windows 2002 Server
June 19, 2001: Windows .NET Server
August 27, 2002: Windows .NET Server 2003
January 9, 2003: Windows Server 2003
