Hello Group

Should I be able to install exchange 2003 on a windows 2003 member server
that is not a DC and has not got active directory on?

And does anybody know of any guides to basic config settings for exchange
2003 install on windows 2003 server?

Any help would be grateful.

Cheers Pete Thompson

Yes, you can install Exchange 2003 on a member server in your domain - this
is generally preferred over installing it on a domain controller.
What sorts of things are you looking for? Are you very familiar with
Exchange 2000? It's not much different...

Thats for the response

I never used exchange 2000 went from exchange 5.5 to 2003.

Looking for anything really on basic config for windows 2003 standard and
exchange 2003.

Also need to know if I can use DCPROMO to take the DC off a windows 2003
server with exchange on and exchange will be ok still.

It's not recommended - you can do it, but I'd try to avoid it if possible.

I don't have an article handy, but this is what I've always heard. I've
never tried it myself.

"You can run Exchange Server 2003 on either a member server or
on a domain controller. After you install Exchange Server 2003 on a
server, do not change the role of the server. For example, if you
install Exchange Server 2003 on a member server, do not use the
Dcpromo tool to promote the server to a domain controller. Or, if you
install Exchange Server 2003 on a domain controller, do not use the
Dcpromo tool to demote the server to a member server. Changing the
role of a server after you install Exchange Server 2003 may result in
loss of some Exchange functionality and is not supported. "
