Only if you plan on using the LDAP features of Exchange 5.5. Since your W2k server is a DC (I assume that's what you mean by stating you have the AD on the machine) the default LDAP port of 389 is grabbed by W2k. Exchange 5.5 cannot therefore use that port, so you'll need to change it within the Exchange Administrator program.
Other than that, I'm not aware of any issues.

I also have Active Directory on my machine. Now I need to install Exchange 5.5. Are there any issues in this scenario? -----Original Message----- From: Jim Holmgren [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 10, 2002 6:10 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Exchange 5.5 on Windows 2000 I run Exchange 5.5 on Win2k servers here with no problems at all, in fact I believe it runs better on Win2K than it did on NT. We are still an NT domain, haven't finished our AD migration - but your post doesn't specify whether you are NT or AD. So - if you are an NT domain - no real issues, just make sure you apply all the appropriate Service Packs and security hot fixes. -Jim Jim Holmgren MCSE, CCNA [EMAIL PROTECTED] Network Engineer Advertising.com We bring innovation to interactive communication.

Particularly about DNS/AD issues. Do you still need to deploy AD? I have browsed MS's sites, but the info I got was either scanty or not very clear. This is about a small office of not more than 30 users.
