Which Version of SharPoint are you running?

Firstly this is my first blogpost up on this space so firstly let me say Hi and that I hope this content will be of some use!

 With SP1 for SharePoint 2007 and WSS v3 out in the wilds I thought it would be useful to share some info about finding the version of SharePoint you are running.

Here's a handy(ish) little way...

Firstly go to any SharePoint Site > select Site Settings.  This will tell you the version number of the software. 

A post up on : https://mindsharpblogs.com/penny/articles/481.aspx to translates the ‘internal’ version number against the ‘friendly’ version number - the key contents are below...

    MOSS 2007¹ or WSS 3.0 SP1           12.0.0.6219
    MOSS 2007¹ or WSS 3.0 October public update 12.0.0.6039 
    MOSS 2007¹ or WSS 3.0 August 24, 2007 hotfix package 12.0.0.6036
MOSS 2007¹ or WSS 3.0 RTM 12.0.0.4518

MOSS 2007¹ or WSS 3.0 Beta 2: 12.0.0.4017
Office 12 (PDC image - pre-beta): 12.0.0.3111 (This version of Office does not have a support link in the Add/Remove programs dialog box).

¹To confirm that a particular service pack is install on SharePoint Server you must either check the version numbers of specific dlls as specified in the related Microsoft Knowledge Based article or select the Show Updates check box in Add and Remove Programs.

  How can I tell if the 12.0.6219.100 Sharepoint Services 3.0 I have installed is 32-bit or 64-bit?  My Central administrator is broken.
