Have you ever applied any non-Microsoft schema changes? Or the SFU Microsoft 
changes?

Subject: Upgrading Schema to R2 in existing Exchange 2003 organisation

Hi Guys,
Just thought I'd ask the question as I have not done this before.

I currently have a Windows 2003 Standard SP2 domain. I run Exchange
2003 server within this domain. I'm getting ready to move to a 2008 domain
and have introduced a new box running a windows 2003 R2 SP2 box in order
to replicate AD, as backup. The current domain controller is very old so I would
like to cover it before the work starts.

However, when I try to add the new server to the existing domain I get:

"The version of the AD schema of the source forest in not compatible with
this version of AD on this computer". After looking this up I realise I will 
have
to upgrade the source DC 's AD from the R2 disk.

My question is, will this cause me any problems with exchange if I go ahead
and upgrade the schema on the main 2003 standard edition DC?

>From looking around it looks fairly straight forward, however, I thought I 
>would just check.

Thanks

David
