Ryan Kiste of Pacific Info Systems in Portland, Oregon. I revealed the answer to him on the phone while our account manager was also on the line. I suspect he will be laughed at for quite some time by everyone in the office. In the mean time, I have another problem. After continuing with the installation, we installed E2k SP2 and a few of the hot fixes including the information store hot fix and suddenly we were faced by any number of errors when trying to mount the store. we tried rolling back to SP2 and still couldn't mount the store. The answer from his 'guru' on the phone was to go ahead and rebuild the e2k server and start over before moving mailboxes. Problem is, after the rebuild it won't let me do a reinstall because the server object is already there somewhere. Our consultant hasn't shown up yet this morning (not really sure which one they will send today), but I suspect he won't know the answer. The installation suggests running in disaster recovery mode. Is this the best thing to do, or is there a place I can clean out the old server name entry and do a clean install?

Interesting... our Exchange 2000 migration expert who was here at $100+ per hour was very convinced that those exchange tasks and tabs should be showing up on our DC's after the ADC installation on a stand-alone server. He actually left about an hour ago planning on sending out an MCSE tommorrow believing that our Schema was the problem. He said even without any action regarding Exchange 2k, we should have exchange tasks in the AD users and computers manager to manage the exchange 5.5 mailboxes for our users.
