Hi!

I would like to hear if you guys in here have any thoughts about what I'm
about to do and what problems I will get.

Scenario:
I have an Exchange organization with 2500 mailboxes. These boxes are spread
on 7 exchange 5.5 servers. The 7 servers are also in different domains. Some
AD, some NT4 and some mixed!

Task:
Upgrade one of the 5.5 servers to 2003.
The domain this 5.5 is in is migrated by 90% to AD.

My idea:
Install a new Exchange 2003 Server
Move the mailboxes from the old 5.5 to the new 2003
Move system folders
Decomission 5.5

Good or bad ?

What will happen to the users not yet in AD ?

Thanx in advance.

regards,
Richard
