Norbert,
2003 with SP1 is now supported as an installable platform. From what I
can see, both the KBA and requirements document have been updated to
reflect this information. I think it may have been erroneously left out
of the XPU readme, most likely because it was not an XPU change that
allowed this support. It was a result of testing that was done that
determined that support for this install was feasible. We apologize if
this has caused any confusion.

Subject: [ISSForum] Supported platforms of Internet Scanner
Hello,
does anybody know which documentation of ISS is true?
Either Knowledgebase Article 2644
(https://iss.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/iss.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqi
d=2644
<https://iss.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/iss.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqi
d=2644> ) naming Windows Server 2003 with SP1 as supported platform all
of the sudden or the requirement page on ISS web server which is still
not naming this OS
(http://www.iss.net/products_services/enterprise_protection/vulnerabilit
y_assessment/is_requirements.php)
I'm wandering anyway, why ISS did hide this info (if it is true) just in
the KBA without announcing it in the release note of the XPU which did
have the change to be able to support this platform Windows Server 2003
with SP1. The change in the KBA was done on May14th as technical support
did say, so maybe XPU 7.2.26 did have this undocumented change to
support Windows Server 2003 with SP1.
This is even more important with the knowledge that Microsoft will end
the support for Windows XP SP1 on Oct. 10th so one platform of Internet
Scanner will be gone soon.
Thanks for any clarification,
Norbert
