You just wrote an article on the tool and you "think" it would have worked? ;o)
Actually, I believe it would have worked if a batch file was written with all of the info in it. I'm pretty sure it works anyway... -----Original Message----- From: Drewski [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, October 05, 2001 9:48 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Question regarding Ed Crowley Server Move Method sorry, Sean, I was <deaning> the list.

Still, it's the "Microsoft Way" to make things difficult, by not encouraging their programmers to work with their product advisory people more closely so features that are DESIRED and NEEDED are included in products. Many would disagree with my stance, saying MS relies on third-party developers to add the functionality, which I agree with, but the folks in Redmond, WA sometimes have their heads up their arses, IMHO. I went ahead and set up replication manually for all the public folders, then went about re-homing each folder (again, manually). The replication part was easy, since it can be done from the Public Info Store properties sheet on the server itself (Instances tab) but re-homing wasn't so keen, since the ability to pass a re-home down to sub-folders isn't an option. Such is life. Another lesson learned. Thanks, group, I appreciate everyone's feedback. Sean -----Original Message----- From: David N.

(I can hear the hecklers warming up...) Per the KB article, I should follow practices outlined in the Microsoft Exchange Server Administrator Guide, chapter 12 and 15. Since I don't HAVE the MS Exchange Server Administrator Guide, I can't easily do that... If I'm told to go out and buy it, I'll sigh, and go do so. Would anyone be so kind as to tell me how this is done? (or am I asking a dumb question? I'm reaching for my wallet right now...)

Make sure they are all rehomed to th new server as per Q152959. These servers should be on the same sp, too. William -----Original Message----- From: Lunsford, Sean [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2001 1:37 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Question regarding Ed Crowley Server Move Method I want to make sure I'm doing this right, as we need to "reclaim" our old Exchange server and commit it to new use. Step 5 states to make "replicas of the public folders on the new server." Is there a good way to do this for ALL public folders? Or do I simply go into each public folder on the list and set up a replication scheme and schedule? I'm a little slow on the uptake of public folder replication between servers in the same site - any info would be appreciated. I don't want to strand any public folders. Exchange 5.5 for both servers, old is running SP3, new is SP4, both on Windows NT Server 4.0 SP6.
