wil s2k developer edition really work on XP Pro box?

[adso]

Microsoft site says yes

If yes, then if I publish my site on a win2k server, will it still
work?
These questions assume that a yes answer does not involve jumping
through too many hoops or having to spend an entire day or longer
poring through MSDN.

God I sound jaundiced don’t I!

Any help with these questions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Adso

It should work fine; to move the database to the server, you can just backup
the database on your XP box and restore it on the Win2K one. If you will
need to connect to MSSQL on XP, then you should check out this article:

Yes, but you would be violating the license agreement, assuming that the
site is production and not developement.
