Upgrade to Exchange 2003 using the swing server method. Skip Exchange 2000 entirely. Exchange 2003 is superior in just about every way and why do the upgrade twice?

I just started to research the upgrade process and I have a couple real quick questions...If I am missing a Service Account Admin ONLY on the recipients container (I have SAA rights for site and server and admin rights for recipients) will there be any problems upgrading (using a domain admin account). Currently we are running AD in mixed mode with one Exchange 5.5 server on Win2k. Only 90 mailboxes. On another note...can anyone recommend the BEST way to upgrade to Exchange 2000...eg:in-place or swing method or server move method. Thanks for any suggestions or pointers to help me get started. Merry X-mas everyone! _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang =english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
