RE: Installing 5.5 on Windows 2000
Hmm.. I only sent that once - hope this one doesn't appear twice as well! One thing just occurred to me. What's the consensus on having a Mapi client installed on the Exchange server? It's the sort of thing that I could imagine might be required at some point down the line, so I'm wondering if it would be better to install it prior to installing Exchange? Presumably Outlook is the only Windows 2000 Mapi client as Windows 2000 doesn't come with the old slim line Exchange Client AFAIK? regards, Paul -- Paul Hutchings Network Administrator, MIRA Ltd.

OK, well AFAIK Outlook is the only mapi client for 2000, so I guess that equates to don't have a mapi client installed on the server?

RE: Installing 5.5 on Windows 2000
I might say for myself...is that IF you have(as IN I must for some reason) to have OL..on your exchange box.. Memory serves me that you should install OL first, then do all the exchange install.. Why??? the MAPI***.DLL, Exe other crap..I believe it is specifically the MAPI32.DLL Exchange will replace/update it to the versions exchange requires. OL will do the same replace/update them too. SO thus if you install Exchange and then OL..OL will break exchange...(cause it over writes exchange with its (OL)files) So by doing OL and then Exchange, exchange will put in the files it requires to run correctly...which is the point to begin with. Avoid the OL on the box unless you absolutely must have it..then re investigate why before you do it 2 cent bill -Original Message- From: Brian Ko [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, February 13, 2003 8:01 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Installing 5.5 on Windows 2000 One thing you do not want to do is install Outlook on your Exchange server due to possible MAPI conflict between Outlook and Exchange server version.

RE: Installing 5.5 on Windows 2000
Paul, I'm probably overly paranoid, but I would not install MBSA on the Exchange box. If memory serves me correctly, you can run this software remotely and still gather the patch information. Avoid installing Outlook on the server. You don't mention this, but I always install the network monitor that comes with Windows 2000. This is not installed by default, and requires a reboot. Often when I get a quirky problem, Microsoft will want to take a packet capture. Having this installed saves having to plan a reboot of the Server.

RE: Installing 5.5 on Windows 2000
It only shipped in the early betas of 5.5. That version, which never shipped outside the beta community, also had deleted item recovery support. Microsoft decided to abandon the Exchange client before shipping 5.5 and the client went away.

You can install Outlook before Exchange and you probably won't have problems. There are also Knowledge Base articles that address this problem. If you're careful, you can have both.
