Windows Server - Windows 2008 R2 standard or enterprise

Hi all,

I am going to decide which version of windows 2008 R2 for my domain
controller(around 1300 users).  Which option do I need and then I have to
choose windows 2008 R2 enterprise (clustering does not count)?  Any RAIDUS
cient limitation? certificate server?

Thnak you.

Hello ed,

It does not matter if you use standard or enterprise edition for a DC itself,
but you have some roles/features not available or complete, see here about
the details, especially for CA:

For clustering you have at least to use the enterprise or datacenter edition.
And for RADIUS i did not know about changes.

Best regards

Meinolf,
thank you for your help.


Do you know whether the connection limitation is concurrent or not?

Thank you.
