There are some new migration tools that are aimed at moving users between sites (5.5 term) which is the lowest common denominator in a mixed mode org. They're better than exmerge or admt, but not a lot different under the covers (it takes care of a lot of the other housekeeping that would otherwise be needed if you used one of the other non-specific tools such as public folders and so on).
Thanks Guido, I was about to have to rewrite a lot of migration information relating to strategies :) Al -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Grillenmeier, Guido Sent: Monday, March 28, 2005 4:02 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Recover DL membership Oops - sorry guys - ofcourse everything changes with Exchange in native mode - I'm still so much used to global-never-ending Exchange Migrations (i.e. mixed mode Orgs), where you can only move the mailboxes around within the same AG/site - correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe even this has changed with E2k3 SP1 (I think you're now even able move single mailboxes accross AGs/Sites in mixed mode...). But Devon's Org is E2k anyways and who knows, maybe it's still running in mixed mode as well. /Guido -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of joe Sent: Montag, 28.

I am sure I have done this at least in test and probably in production. joe -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mulnick, Al Sent: Monday, March 28, 2005 9:24 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Recover DL membership Help me remember: Why is it that we wouldn't be able to move a user across an AG? I can understand not being able to move a server across an AG boundary, but a user doesn't make sense to me in a native org.

This will ensure least impact on the user as most of his group-memberships (usually all DLs, as these should be UGs) will stay intact. You're correct in thinking that you can't move the mailbox itself to a different Admin Group in E2k, but you'll just have to follow a different process for this part of the user's move (e.g. via exmerge) - this will have no influence on the DLs. Once you've upgraded to E2k3, you can then also move the mailbox to a different admin group (yet the user account still needs to be moved separately). /Guido -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Harding, Devon Sent: Mittwoch, 23.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't we have to upgrade to Exchange 2003 to accomplish this? -Devon -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Phil Renouf Sent: Wednesday, March 23, 2005 2:21 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] Recover DL membership If the user was deleted from the old domain and recreated in the new one then I would say no. Why was this process followed and not a Move or a Migration?
