Recover WPA Key from Keychain

Today I had the need to discover what the WPA key was that I had entered into my OSX keychain. Here were the steps:

1. Applications
2. Utilities
3. Keychain Access
4. System (top left; defaults to login)
5. Found the SSID of key that I was trying to recover and double-click
6. Select the Show Password checkbox
7. Enter your admin password.

Enjoy.

Installing SBS 2003 SP2

Last week I came across the first instance where I had to install SBS 2003 that had no Service Packs integrated, and had to get up to the latest Service Pack (SP2). All previous installs I've done, either SP1 is integrated in the SBS 2003 media, or SP1 had already been installed and I was just installing to the latest SP2. The question I had was, "Can I go straight to SP2, or do I have to first install SP1 and all the associated SBS specific SPs?"

Well, after some googling, I cam across the the SBS SP1 article here, but this doesn't address jumping from no SP to SP2.

So, since I couldn't find any articles that specifically answered my questions, I decided to give it a try in this order (after installing SBS 2003 and getting all the drivers installed):

1. Server 2003 SP1
2. Exchange SP2
3. Sharepoint Services SP3
4. XP SP2 Client Deployment
5. SBS 2003 SP1
6. Server 2003 SP2

Then, I followed the article here to address known issues with SBS 2003 and SP2, and I was up and running (basically just ran Microsoft Update to install post SP2 updates for SBS 2003).
