Fred,
I realize your question was directed to William, but I'm going to offer my 02 anyway.
I recently completed a move from an NT4.0(SP6a) Exchange 5.5 server (SP4) to a Win2K(SP2) Exchange 5.5 server (SP4). The Ed Crowley method worked beautifully for me - no problems.
Keep in mind that if you do go to a Win2k server, you will lose the NT BDC functionality that you had on your old server - everything else should work just fine.

William,
I will be moving my old exchange server(ex55sp4,NT4sp6,BDC) to the new server(Nt4sp6). Is it any harder to move to Win2K server?...or use a different name on the new NT box? We don't use ADS as of yet so the install will still be EX55sp4. I may be using the Ed Crowley move method.
Thanks again,
Fred

It makes no sense to me to maintain it on a separate server for less than 50 people.
For Exchange2000 Standard, you no longer have the choice. IIS will be there. My as well get used to it. :o)

Thanks William,
You always have great info to share...as usual...we are a small enterprise (under 50 people)...so I don't think performance will be an issue (also upgrading the exchange server hardware)...your right, my concerns do deal with having to enble IIS and constantly making sure all the patches are applied.
Thanks,
fred

Hi Fred:
Pros: Single admin entity
Simple for small deployments
Less hardware, therefor cheaper.
Cons: IIS and the related patches reside on the mail server.
Server performance burdened with IIS and Exchange on the same box.
Applying IIS patches to your exchange server can be annoying.

Hello All,
I'd like to get your opinion on this:
Exch 5.5 sp4 on Nt4 sp6
We are in the middle of consolidating as many machines in our infrastructure as possible...can any of you tell me the cons of having my owa sitting on the Exchange server itself? Thanks all for all the help and "entertainment". The posts have been truly helpful and informative.
