Mark, Are you not able to do the 'move server' method (IE just like a restore set up a exchnage system with the same names etc but using the EDB from the sbs system and recreate the Directory?
Cheers Paul Standards are like toothbrushes, everyone wants one but not yours -----Original Message----- From: Mark Rowlands [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 31 July 2002 21:03 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Fwd: Re: Moving Exchange from Small Business Server We have outgrown our Small Business Server (4.5 with Exchange 5.5) and want/need to move exchange off to a newer faster box. The SBS version of exchange however seems substantially crippled, no site connector or directory connector. This, I believe, means that there is no posssibility to install another Exchange Server into the site and use the move server wizard and then remove the old machine. Shifting all the other apps ot the sbs machine is not an option right now...... There are way too many legacy apps (in same cas= es the "guru" who installed em and knew how they worked is looong gone). >From what I have read there is no "easy / automated method" of moving exchange to a new box with a different name or is there? It seems that exporting all mailboxes and reimporting the data is my only option... please say it aint so joe :-) ------------------------------------------------------- _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *********************************************************************************************** The information contained in this message or any of its attachments may be confidential and is intended for the exclusive use of the addressee(s).
