I am running into the same problem. Have a W2K Ad setup running MSX5.5sp4. Installed a new server W2K adv svr and installed E2K adv srv. According to tech docs, I need to have a two way AD connector in my MSX5.5 srv before I can move the mailbox from the MSX5.5 to the E2K adv directory. I have one-way running, but cannot move the mailboxes.
