So your E2k server still sees an IMS that doesn't exist.  I seem to
remember doing something similar in a test lab, but fortunately I did a
simple reinstall.  I'm not sure of the ramifications of deleting the
connector using, say, ADSIEdit, so maybe a call to PSS is in order here
to get the official word.

Subject: RE: Deleting Legacy Connection / Event ID 929


Your assessment matches mine. During the migration Internet mail went to
the IMS on the 5.5 server until most to the users were on the E2K
server. We then changed the E2K virtual SMTP connector (to point
outwards) and changed the firewall to direct incoming mail to the E2K
server.

The 5.5 server was re-installed from scratch - not an in-place upgrade.

So the question remains - how do I remove references to a server and
connector that no longer exist (without wrecking the working system)

After a brief look, it looks like the E2k server is trying to reference
an IMS on the 5.5 server, which leads me to the quesiton of how did you
handle the Internet email during your migration?  How did you reinstall
the 5.5 server with E2k?  Was it an upgrade?

Environment: Windows 2000 Advanced Server SP2 and Exchange 2000
Enterprise Server SP2

I have an Exchange system that was migrated from Exchange 5.5 to
Exchange 2000. The upgrade method was as follows

1. Upgrade NT4 domain to W2K AD
2. Install a temporary E2K server
3. Setup an Active Direcorty Connector (ADC)
4. Move the 5.5 mailboxes to the E2K server
5. Re-install the 5.5 server with E2K (keeping the same name) 6. Move
the mailboxes back from the temporary E2K server to the new server. 7.
Move all first server roles from the temporary server to the new server
8. Wait a week 9. Re-check first server roles then remove the temporary
server.

The server has settled in but fills the application event log with the
following message.
