Re: [ActiveDir] different version of R2 available?

When we spoke with the PM out in Redmond it was said that the feature that allows you to copy a file on one replica and that file get made up on another with very little replication traffic, e.g. a comparison taken on the local source and then only the deltas replicated (just like the rest of the RDC engine but without having done an initial source of the original file from the upstream partner) required an Enterprise version of Windows in the mix (somehwere in the DFSR topology).  There seems to be some confusion about this.  I'm not talking about RDC, but a feature that utilises that technology.
 
For example, you have a VHD (hdd01) and you copy it to the same folder locally and rename to hdd02.  That file isn't replicated in its entirety.  Rather, the hdd01 on the replica is used to create that file and only the necessary bits that represent the filename change are replicated.
 
A couple of people have tried to shoot me down in flames when I mentioned this, but I know what I heard...  : )
 
(although I might not be correct)

Refer to following KB article: Media for Windows Server 2003 R2 is released by using various SKUs, such as Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition, Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition, and Windows Server 2003 R2 Datacenter Edition.
 
CD2 must be the same SKU as what is currently installed. For example, only Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition CD2 can be applied to Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition.

My officemate and I were discussing whether there are different versions of the R2 CD depending on whether you're running Server 2003 Standard or Server 2003 Enterprise.  Or is there only one version of R2?  TIA!
