Yes, Sharepoint is ideal for this. But be aware that sharepoint is an
open-ended system. As such, it is *very* flexible so it can fit your needs,
but it also take some effort to configure. IT isn't a set and forget
solution. Buy books.
Secondly, no, you did NOT get SPS as part of SBS. Sharepoint Portal Server
(SPS) is the Microsoft enterprise sharepoint solution and like any
enterprise server, it costs money. SBS *does* come with the little brother
to SPS, however, Windows Sharepoint Services (WSS) accomplishes may of the
tasks that SPS does, but is more suitable to the small business. And much
of what you learn about "sharepoint" as a brand is applicable to both.
Sharepoint is installed by default on SBS with a default site of
"companyweb." Again, books are essential in gaining a more intricate
knowledge here...
