You are correct in saying that you do not need to run ForestPrep or DomainPrep if you
have Enterprise Admin and Schema Admin permissions, but only if the following
conditions are all met:
- All Exchange 2000 servers are in a single domain.
- The domain contains the schema master.
- All Exchange users are in the domain.
Because Stefan has more than one domain, he will need to run setup with /forestprep in
the domain that has the schema master and /domainprep in the 2 child domains.

The schema will be modified throughout your domain no matter where you
install Exchange 2000. If you are an enterprise admin and a schema admin
you do not need to run forestprep or domainprep. If you do not have these
privileges someone that does will have to run the preps for you and grant
you local admin rights on the server(s) you wish to use for you Exchange
mailbox/public folder stores.

Hi Stefan
I believe you need to run Forestprep to get the forest ready and then run
Domainprep in each domain where you need Exchange features. In other words
you don't need to run Domainprep in your empty forest root.

If I have 1 parent domain( its empty, just a place holder for the root of
the forest) and 2 child domains and I want to be running Exchange 2000 in my
organization, do I have to install Exchange2000 up in the parent domain or
can I get away with just installing it down in the child domains.
My Exchange guys think I need to install it up in the parent but I don't
want anything up there except for the schema master/primary DNS server.
Thanks.
