I've completed the upgrade / migration to 2003.
Went really well.
What I found.
1.) In place upgrades worked fine, as long as I had W2k SP4 and the latest HP Support packs loaded (HP DL 360 servers) before the upgrade.
2.) Newly built servers worked fine as well (as expected)
3.) AD /...
We are in the process of merging 2 companies and need a way of moving the users Exchange Mailboxes and addresses from one Exchange 2000 server in FOREST\DOMAIN A, to a Exchange 2003 server in FOREST\DOMAIN B.
Is Exmerge the way to go here?
Is there some way of moving mailboxes between...
Just starting migrating my domain to Windows 2003 SP1.
On both of my new 2003 servers I cannot access the event viewer unless I log in with the Administrator account.
Other domain admin accounts get the following error when trying to view all event logs other than the security log:
Unable to...
Not sure if upgrading to 2003 is a big deal.
Everything i've read seems rather positive, but i thought i'd post my plan here for a peer review of sorts.
So here goes.
1 2000 domain in Native mode
4 DC's running Win2k SP3
3 DC's in Mead Office (FMSO housed here)(TS Licensing here)
1 DC in...
I've read MS KB Article: 830829 and changed the regsitry with the following value:
\\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeIS\ParametersSystem\MaxObjsPerMapiSession
DWORD: session
Value: 128 (decimal)
Rebooted the server and I am still getting users unable to connect...
Hi all,
Im about to install my first 2003 AD controller into our domain and am wanting some advice on any gotchas etc.
Here's the plan.
1 Domain with 4 AD controllers over 2 sites.
1st 2003 DC will be installed on the site with the FSMO role holder to allow for faster /domainprep /forestprep...
Thanks for that.
Yes I was using Outlook 2003 in cached mode.
I had to delete my *.oab files before it would fully resync though, and then all was fine.
Forcing a download address book didn't seem to work until I deleted the cached copy of the GAL.
Maybe if I waited for a few more hours it...
Anyone here have problems with the Global Address List updating the clients on Exchange 2003 - outlook 2003?
Example:
I have a user I want to hide from the GLobal Address list.
I tick the Hide from Address Lists property on the user account and wait.
I open outlook and create a new e-mail. Hit...

Found something on a different forum that may help. This could be caused by a change in the Default Domain Controller Policy GPO. Make sure that the Exchange Enterprise Servers domain...
Weird my Default Domain Controller Policy seems unchanged...
I did notice Domain Prep ran very quickly during the install. It finished in about 2 seconds.
I assumed it worked fine as the install wizard checked it as successful, however given the Policy has not been updated it must have failed...
OK its not the Windows Firewall because it was never turned on.
If I run DCDiag from the Exchange 2003 server against all my DC's they all pass.
The account I installed Exchange 2003 under is a Schema Admin - Domain Admin - Enterprise Admin - Everything under the sun admin.
I've used Replmon to...
I thought I checked that before I started the install...
Control Panel - Windows Firewall is not ticked..
But admittedly I left it at that and did not look any deeper.
Is Windows Firewall Enabled by default after you install W2k3 SP1 or do you have to turn it on manually?
I've left the server...
I have 1 Exchange 2000 server running Exchange SP3 on a Windows 2000 Server running Windows SP3.
I have built a new Windows 2003 server with SP1 and installed Exchange 2003 and Exchange 2003 SP1.
Thinking that this would be a simple join the organization and move mailbox method of migrating...
Thanks!
Yes just one organization.
No Front end servers with OWA or anything like that.
Just a basic Back End E2k server.
I have quite a few in house apps that relay through Exchange as well, so i'll need to visit each one of these and point to the new server, and add then allow relay for the...
O.K
Just thought i'd put my plan on the site to see if there are any issues I have not thought of.
I have 1 Exchange 2000 SP3 server still running in mixed mode.
I have a new server (win2003) on which I am going to install Exchange 2003 on.
I want to join the Ex2000 Org and move the mailboxes...
Phew.
Thanks for that.
The last experience of the Exchange datastore hitting its 16gb limit befroe the upgrade, left my nerves on edge.
The server is sitting on a domain controller and is rather quirky, so im off to get some new kit to build Exchange 2003 on and migrate to next.
Wish me luck!
I've recently upgraded my Exchange 2000 server from Standard to Enterprise.
The upgrade did not go smoothly however I am left with a server that still works, and I get the following event after the Information Store service has started:
"The information store database "First Storage Group\Public...
I have an Exchange 2000 Enterprise server running SP3 which was upgraded from Exchange 5.5 about 3 years ago.
It is also running on a Domain Controller...
I want to uninstall the old ADC conenctor as I believe I no longer need this because there are no Exchange 5.5 servers in the organization...
