We currently have our DNS/DHCP/WINS running on a Win NT 4.0 member server
(all of our servers are NT 4.0) and we are going to be upgrading to Win2K.
Of course, we plan on upgrading our PDC first. Would the recommendation be
to install DNS/WINS/DHCP on the PDC prior to upgrading to Win2K?

I would make sure you even need WINS before enabling it on the new 2k PDC.
In my experience, the configuration of DNS on a new win 2000 server seems to
vary in degrees of success, I would attempt to install these on the PDC
first. You mihgt have a better chance of a smooth conversion rather than a
Agreed, if your clients are running y2k you should not need wins, however in my
experience windows 98 clients love WINS and don't like dns so much. Try not
installing it and install it if you have to.

I have found that if you have HP Printers in your network and HP Jet directs
that you will need to have WINS otherwise you will have a hell of a time
trying to get printing undercontrol.

DNS cannot be on a NT4 machine when you upgrade unless the machine you are
upgrading is the DNS server. Reason being because NT4 DNS does not support
the necessary records that Active Directory needs.

Could you explain the need for a bogus DHCP range?

Did a little research just b/c, I found this post:
"If your plan A is to use DHCP for your printers, and you are
using HP JetDirect cards, then invoke plan B.
HP JetDirect cards, firmware vA.5.0.5 and later claim to "support" DHCP. I
don't think they quit reading the RFC before they reached sec
Another thing to note on HP jetdirect.. there are servers turned on by
default with blank passwords that could allow a malicious user to change
things, such as IP config. Imagine the havoc caused by someone setting the
IP on an unsecured HP printer to the same as the gateway on that subnet...

can move stores fairly easy in exchange2000. Dismount. Edit the
path. Move the store. Mount.

Exchange2000 databases are moved fairly easily.
Consider adding a new, bigger drive in there.
