Has anyone seen or run Office Forms Server on Microsoft Small Business Server?

Are there any issues between the two? Thank you.

The following products are not supported in Small Business Server 2003
a)Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007,
b)Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 for Search
c) Microsoft Office Forms Server 2007

Please check the following link for more details

Please check the following reply from an SBS MVP for the same case.

However Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 is supported in SBS 2003 and can be
run side-by-side with WSS 2.0 (comes default with SBS).

Please check the following link, that tells how WSS 3.0 on SBS

Thank you, Sundar.

i) I am running WSS 3.0 side-by-side on SBS.
ii) I searched this forum and read the SharePoint Server 2007 on SBS
thread, but it was not quite relevant to my concern, which is Office Forms
Server on SBS, not SharePoint Server on SBS.
iii) The Microsoft link for supported OSes was, perhaps, the most useful
because it did not explicitely list SBS.

HOWEVER!!!!

Microsoft Pre-sales says there is no technical reason Forms Server shouldn't
run on SBS because SBS comes with Windows Server 2003. However, upon
consultation with somebody, the pre-sales fella said that although it should
run, Microsoft would not provide technical support for it.
