I have 3 server identical in hardware, one is running SBS
2003, other W2003 server, last one W2003 Enterprise.
I see the network bridge option in two of them but not in
the SBS 2003. How do I have Network Bridge option to come
back. I do not see the option at all, not even grayed out.

Nor would one want it to!

Hello!

Thank you for posting here!

Windows Small Business Server (SBS) 2003 does not provide the option
"Bridge Connections" when you select and right click two or more onnections
in Network Connections. This is the consideration of the services installed
with SBS 2003, for example, Routing and Remote Access service (RRAS).

By default, Routing and Remote Access service is enabled and configurated
in SBS 2003. Even you are not able to create network bridge in SBS 2003,
SBS 2003 still plays a role as a router and the two network segments are
connected.

For additional information about how to configure Windows Server 2003 as a
router, please visit the web page below to view the article in Microsoft
Knowledge Base:

323355 HOW TO: Configure Windows Server 2003 to Function as a Router

I hope that the above information is helpful. Thank you for choosing
Microsoft and have a nice day!

Thanks & Regards,
