I still don't follow. During the installation of Exchange 2000 in the AD domain, I -specify- the org name and site names. Let me go over this step by step and make sure I'm following...
Exchange 5.5 is currently installed on a member server in the ABC domain, and I have the following configuration: Org Display Name: ABC Org Directory Name: ABC Site Display Name: BAR Site Directory Name: BAR I can freely change the org and site display names to, say, XYZ and FOO respectively without affecting users or anything else (question 1)? Now I also have a Win2k AD domain called XYZ. I can bring up a Win2k server in the XYZ domain as a member server, install Exchange 2000 and I can tell it that it's the second server in an org and it will make its ORG name XYZ and its Site name FOO? Or do I have to specify a new org of name XYZ and a site of name FOO? (question 2) And if I use this procedure there will be no remnants of either ABC or BAR in AD or Exchange 2k anywhere? Forgive my slowness, I appreciate your taking the time... -Yanek. > -----Original Message----- > From: Chris Scharff [mailto:chris_scharff@;messageone.com] > Sent: Wednesday, October 30, 2002 17:43 > To: Exchange Discussions > Subject: RE: modprof utility > > > > No, in order to do the move, the servers will need to be > members of the same > Org (and site).
