The only thing I don't agree with in his explanation is, "You can do most of this during business hours, without interuption". I didn't find that to be true ----- Original Message ----- From: Abercrombie, Sherry To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Sent: Monday, June 24, 2002 3:54 PM Subject: Looking for More Advice   I will be installing a new Exchange server box this weekend.  (Yeah)  My question is:  Is the method described in Q155216 the best way to move an Exchange server? I will be upgrading to Exchange 5.5 Enterprise in this move, however, I want to have the same computer, organization, site name etc. to keep the impact on users to the minimum.  Neither the old, nor the new server is a PDC or BDC.  After reading this article through several times I believe that this is the way I want to do this, but would like to have that confirmed for you guys and gals on the list.
