It is still a supported product, but they do not sell licenses anymore.

2k , on a server and client Basis ?

straight forward... Why don't they want to upgrade? jlc

So, they don't want to migrate from NT4 to 2000, but you'd create a 2000
domain parallel doubling the work and administration?

These customers that *want* an Exchange2000 server have to look at why
they want an Exchange2000 server.  Are there some features they like? Do
they just want to be able to say they run Exchange2000?

Some of the greatest benefits are abtained by migrating from NT4 to
Win2000.

The suggestion of trying to deploy Exchange2000 while clinging to the
NT4 domain is at best not clearly thought out and at worst stupid.

Your question by itself suggests some reading would benefit you and your
customers.

Hi

Most customers  I met, want  an ex 2000 server, but do not want to
upgrade their NT 4.0 domain right now.

What most of your have done ?  For small companies

Installing an Ex 2000 server as a DC in it's own domain ? And create
trust between the 2 domain so OL 2000 user of the nT 4.0 domain can log
to Ex 2000 without beeing prompted ?  Ca we do that ?

OR

Install the the WIN 2000 ex 2000 server has a PDC(PDC Emulator, Mix
Mode) in the NT 4.0 Domain , (are we forced to install NT 4.0 as a BDC,
install WIN 200 on it and after promote it to PDC ?)
