Exch 5.5 - 2K Migration Process

2002-04-22 Thread Jon Farr
I'm getting ready to migrate my Exch 5.5 to 2K. The domain is already in 2K native mode. In a recent w2knews issue, part of the suggested process was to install the ADC, then run forestprep and domainprep. However, in MS' Guide to Upgrading from MS Exch 5.5 to Exch 2K Server, they say to run

I would agree. If I recall, we ran forestprep first. I think the idea was to give AD the time to replicate the new schema changes to all DCs before installing the ADC, which will rely on some of those changes being in place. -Bonnie -Original Message- From: William Lefkovics
