I am upgrading our current e-mail system hardware, for many many different reasons the new system has to have the same system name as the old system. This is usually not a problem, I just do it as a Disaster Recovery and restore exchange to the new H/W, however I am trying to through my own wrench into the equation this time. Current Config is: NT 4.0 w/sp6a Exch 5.5 w/sp4
Purposed new configuration: Win 2000svr (member) w/sp2 Exch 5.5 w/sp4 I have not been able to find any documentation on this, and didn't know if any of you had tried this. I am doing this getting ready for our AD conversion and would like all my member servers to be 2000 as prior to going to AD. I can't upgrade the current server to 2000 as it is a BDC (I know...not my choice). I know I could always do the new one as a NT4.0 member then do a OS upgrade, however I am very wary of doing OS upgrades, I prefer to have them done as fresh installs.
