Current Network scenario



FS1: Windows 2000 running DNS, and DHCP. It also houses the user home
directories and Exchange 2000 for about 30 mailboxes, and is also the Domain
controller

FS2: Windows 2000 running SQL 2000, but not taxed at all.



Plan



Add a new server to replace FS1, upgrade to Exchange 2003, and possibly move
the user home directories to FS2, or a third server.



The current domain is the same as the registered public domain which is
company.org; and I think I should move it to something like company.local.
So, I believe that I also need to create a new domain and move all network
resources from company.org, to company.local.



I need to some guidance as to how to accomplish all of this, or some
additional direction or suggestions.

What you're talking about sounds like you want to migrate to a new domain
altogether.
Is that possible with your applications and such?

Yes. The applications are a client server app and exchange services

If that's the case, then likely it's best to introduce the new forest and
Exchange server and then migrate the users/mailboxes over.
Something like ADMT and or PFMIGRATE would be helpful there.

What if the domain controller is also the exchange server? Can it remain
this way or should I separate the two . This small network with a low usage
Exchange server with about 30 mailboxes.

Are you asking if you could or should create the same architecture in the
target forest? If so, I can't think of a reason why not for that size of an
installation. In much larger I can think of reasons, but for 30 workstations
it would likely be a better use of resources to put Exchange on the DC.
