How do I tell - R2 vs Service Pack 2?

We have a bunch of Windows Server 2003 servers. Our System Admin is away on
a course and we were trying to find out if we are on Service Pack 2 or
Release 2 (ie: R2).

Right-clicking My Computer on every server shows 'Service Pack 2'. Does that
mean we don't have R2, or could R2 have been installed but doesn't change
the display from 'Service Pack 2'.

Thanks

Save the script below as c:\SP.vbs, then run it to see the exact version of
your service pack.

sServer="Edelbrok" 'Fill in the correct server name!
LF = Chr(10)
Set OSSet = GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=" _
& "impersonate}!//" & sServer & "/root/cimv2"). _
ExecQuery("select Caption, CSDVersion, SerialNumber, " _
& "ServicePackMajorVersion, ServicePackMinorVersion " _
& "from Win32_OperatingSystem")
For Each OS In OSSet
MsgBox "Windows Version=" & OS.Caption & LF _
& "Serial Number=" & OS.SerialNumber & LF _
& "SP Version=" & OS.CSDVersion & LF _
& "Major SP Version=" & OS.ServicePackMajorVersion & LF _
& "Minor SP Version=" & OS.ServicePackMinorVersion
Next

Thanks - that script works great.

However, it tells me almost the same thing as 'My Computer' (ie: Service
Pack 2). It does give me a little more info though. Here is what it says for
one of our servers:

Microsoft blah blah Server 2003, Standard Edtion
Serial Number = blah blah
SP Version = Service Pack 2
Major SP Version = 2
Minor SP Version = 0


So does that mean it's 'Release 2' or 'Service Pack 2', (or maybe even 'SP2
Release 2' if there is such a thing!)
