Whoa, Ok first thing. I hope you have the following completed before you attempt anything: 1. Both domains are up and running healthy. 2. You have used ADMT to migrate your user and computer objects to the 2003 domain, utilizing SID history. 3. Install the AD, and have it successfully sync'ing your 5.5 and 2003 directories. 4. Then use the mailbox migration wizard to move the 5.5 mailboxes to Exchange 2003, leaving plenty of time for replication to occur, depending on the size of your environment. 5. I don't believe you can use the mailbox migration wizard to move the public folders. You will want to use pfmigrate, assuming that your Exchange 2003 server is a whole new Org and not the same org as your Excxhange 5.5
There are a lot of details left out of the above explanation of course. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of richard van beers Sent: Wednesday, February 09, 2005 7:00 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: migrate 5.5 to 2003 ADC fails. Hi List, I am trying to migrate 5.5 to 2003 in a new domain. Exchange 2003 is setup. the ADC is also setup. When I run step 2 data collection in ADC, it fails: "Could not connect to server <server:port> with LDAP error -49. Check server name, port number and account permissions." It seems to only want to authenticate as the current user (administrator in the NEW domain) and fails that. - ldap port has been changed to 379 - There is a two way trust between old en new domain. - newdomain/administrator is a member of the administrators group on the old domain. - In 5.5 newdomain/administrator has service account permissions added to the site servers and configurations containers - All authentication methods for ldap are ticked. When is use the Migration Wizard, I CAN specify an account to logon as, and if I specify "olddomain/administrator" it connects, but only gives me the option to migrate user mail boxes, not public folders or anything else. * Why wont the ADC work? * How can I migrate the PF and distribution lists to 2003? Any help is greatly appreciated.
