Hi Jim,
Looks like your post never made it to the Active Dir list. If I recall
Exchange 2000 clustered still had dependencies on Wins, and I was told at a
Microsoft Technet event that Exchange 2003 clustered no longer had this
requirement, until I saw the Microsoft article that I pointed out
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;837391 .
Jose

changed.
I'm putting in the technical update today.
It's wrong
Wrong, wrong, wrong.
Wrgonggitty-wrong-wrong Wrong!
WINS is *NOT* required for Exch functionality, but proper name
resolution support in the network *IS* required. If you've built your
network, name services & clients properly, using a "simple" name gets
you the same response as using FQDN in a "ping" command.

-------------------------------------------------------Hi Mike,
Looks like you are going to also have dependencies on Wins and with the
MSDTC:
Exchange Server 2003 and Exchange 2000 Server require NetBIOS name
resolution for full functionality

Hi Mike,
I've only had to change a SQL 2000 Active / Active Cluster IP and it
involves some additional steps for SQL Virtual Names. It's been over 5
years
since I built an Exchange 2000 cluster, but I do not recall if Exchange
has
any dependencies (I would probably post this to the Exchange list and I
am
cc'ing them as well)
Take a look at :
Exchange Server 2003 Cluster Configuration Checklist

cklist.mspx?pf=true

Or in PDF format at:

ng/Q230356.pdf
Also just in case you ever have to change it on a SQL:

Hope this helps,

Subject: [ActiveDir] Change private IP on a cluster
Hey,
I have an Exchange 2003 active/passive cluster on Windows 2003 and I
need
to change the private ip on both nodes. I realize that while I'm
changing the IP the nodes will not talk to each other and likely kick
the passive node off or stop the cluster service for a few minutes on
the passive node.
Is there anything else I will need to do or look out for? I don't
*think* this is a big deal but since it's a production cluster, and I've
never had to do this, I thought I would check before I tried it.
Thanks again.
Mike.
