Got a strange one, and was hoping someone could tell me if this is
possible.
Some registry keys were deleted on one of my testing servers. I'm
almost positive that the server was running Windows 2000 Adv Server.
However, the box appears to now think it is running Windows 2000 Pro.
Could this be possible?

Winver is reporting that the box is running version 5.0 build 2195
service pack 4.
My goal is to determine if this box was in fact running Win 2k Adv
Server.
Any advice or places to check would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Vin

Yes, this is entirely possible. Windows 2000 Professional and Server
are exactly the same, except the availability of some tools, like
Computer Management and Command Prompt, are made more easily available
on the Start Menu.
