How to migrate from one exchange svr to another

[jlawan]

I want to migrate from a current exchange svr 2000 to another Exchange svr2000 using Migration Wizard. I am stuck at "Enter the path to the migration files (.pkl). What is .pkl? Do I perform this on the source svr or destination svr? Pls. help.

PKL is a packing list file which should have been created in the first step of a 2-step migration. it's nothing more than an inventory of all the intermediate files created in the first step of the migration.

I have only 15 users acct, I intend to do 1 step only migration. From the Migration Wizard, when prompted, Select The Type of Migration, should I pick 'Migrate from Migration Files'? I am not sure. Then, the next Q is: What is the path to the .pkl? I had search for *.pkl on the source svr, found nothing. This is where I am confuse.
Pls. help.

nope, Migration from Files is the 2-step method, that's where you're running into problems.

OK. I want to migrate from one exchange svr to another in an Active Directory environment. So, I am left w only 2 choices: Either Migrate from Internet Directory (LDAP via ADSI) or Migrate from Intrernet Mail(IMAP4). waht is LDAP via ADSI?
