Move Server Wizard
I'm involved in a project to separate one of our sites from our organisation. All user accounts are on our master domain and the remote Exchange server (NT4sp6a, Exch55sp4) which hosts their mailboxes reside on a resource domain. I'm planning on using the Move Server tool provided by Microsoft to separate their Exchange server (Which has a service account on our domain) to it's own domain/organisation and create new user accounts for them. Has anyone tried using the Move Server tool before and if so, have they come across any 'features' I should be aware of? I have successfully tested the tool in a test environment, but your thoughts/comments/warnings would be appreciated. Many thanks, Neil Raggett SERCo Aerospace List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm

What Ricki said is correct - with Exchange 2000 SP1 came a new mailbox migration wizard.

If you have not to many Public Folders you may export and import them through an outlook client. Make sure you've the owner permissions on every folder you have to export. To get/set all the permissions you may use the tools PFINFO and/or PFADMIN. Tia, nothing is perfect but the migration wizard is a good start...

RE: Microsoft Exchange Move Server Wizard
Title: Microsoft Exchange Move Server Wizard
The only glitches that the MSW does
not deal with is PF. So you have to become an owner of all the PF record all
permissions and export them all to a PST. Also another thing that was messed up
it left behind the old x400 addresses on the users so we had to go and modify
each one to reflect a change on the ORG. The last thing that was wrong you are
going to be going crazy because the contacts that people have are pointing to
the old x.400 so the users have to resave their contacts. I did this back on
SP3. Hopefully with SP4 they fixed the address issue with the users. Other than
that I thought it did an ok job.

RE: Outlook Profile after Move server wizard
What do you mean by caches the information store?? If you update the profile in the right places (and that's why you need to use a program/script), you shouldn't see a problem. There is a small problem with Contacts displayed as an Address Book which I'm working on but apart from that, I don't see any problems.
