I have a windows 2000 AD domain and Windows 2000 Exchange org.
I plan to move to a Windows 2003 domain and Windows 2003 Exchange org.
Requirements
1. change the Active directory domain to new name
2. Keep the same smtp email domain for new exchange org
3. Perform migration in stages
Can someone point me to 2-3 different migration approaches using same or
different hardware?
Web links would be great
Thank you,
John
Upgrade DCs to 2003. Use Domain Rename.

Great info thank you
How about if I were to migrate and use a different SMTP Domain for Exchange?
Kind regards,
John

SMTP domains can be added/removed quite easily to Exchange. You setup
Recipient Policy for the domain. Recipient Policy tells Exchange it should
receive email for a particular domain and generates email addresses.

Be sure to remember that you'll need to also upgrade to Exchange 2003 to
support the domain rename. I have to admit though, a domain rename seems
like a pretty worthless thing since only your company users would likely see
that information. Is it really that important to justify the work?
