Ok, I hope someone here has run into this before and knows how to fix. I've been using Microsoft's "swing server" method to upgrade to Exchange 2k. Everything seems to be funtioning correctly and I'm done with the old Exchange server. In fact, I've had the old 5.5 server off for about a day now and all seems to be good.
Now the only problem I have is that in the Exchange System Manager the old server is still listed (ghosted, but listed) under Tools/Site/Servers. Doing a bit more research I found Q284148 goes into removing the last 5.5 server from a site... Yeah! Uhh oh... I can't do the last step that they lay out in this article, it will not let me remove the SRS connection. It states: "This last Site Replication Service cannot be deleted from an Administrative Group that contains pre-Exchange 2000 servers" Great, that doesn't do me any good. In the Exchange 5.5 Administrator the old server isn't listed, only the new server. Anyone have any ideas on this one?
