A List of WSS and MOSS Site Definitions and Configurations.

A great post from SharePont University

The other 'MS' have a list on OOTB content types here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms452896.aspx ( have a look in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\FEATURES\ctypes\ctypeswss.xml), but I though I would share another piece of reference material I often use - all those "Out Of The Box" Site Definition Configurations. You know, all those 'site template' choices you get when you create a new site collection...

They are normally found in the 12 hive location: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\SiteTemplates.

If your desired definition isn't listed, save site as a template (.stp), extract the manifest.xml file and locate the

entry to find the number show below.

Remember that saving as a template won't replicate a full site definition (many customisations, such as content types, won't be there), so if it's a hand customised site you will have to reverse-engineer it yourself, or use one of the 3rd party or MS dev tools, to help you create a definition from it in Visual Studio. I'll cover my approach to using these in a later blog post.
