Ronk, You're not going to run DCPromo on the Win2K box if it is going to be acting as your Exchange Server. You don't want to run an Exchange Server as a ADD Controller unless you absolutely must. Just join the Win2k server to the domain like you would any other server or workstation.
You are going to need to run ForestPrep and DomainPrep on your Win2k3 Domain and most likely you're going to need to use the ForestPrep and DomainPrep from Exch2k SP3. You may wish to triple check on which version of ForestPrep and DomainPrep are Win2k3 AD ready though (I don't know if they've release a special version for Win2k3 or not...) Joe Pochedley If you have time to do it twice, you had time to do it right in the first place. -----Original Message----- From: Ronk [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 13, 2003 9:50 AM To: NT 2000 Discussions Subject: Windows 2003 and Windows 2000 All I have a question about the steps to add a Windows 2000 Server into a windows 2003 Forest. The question is this is a new 2000 server and I want to put into play as my new Exchange server. Do I need run any AD prep tools or will the dcpromo update the schema and all with out any problem. All help is needed and appriciated.
