Transitioning from a Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server to Exchange Server 2007 Question
Hi All
Well, I'm in the process of moving to Microsoft Server 2007 but I was wondering
if I would run into issue migrating Microsoft Server 2007 with my Current AD.
To give you better understanding here is a brief history of my domain:
- Upgraded
an old NT4 domain to Windows 2000 mixed mode.
- Installed
Exchange 2000 (new install, never used Exchange before).
- Upgraded
domain to Windows 2000 Native mode.
-
Uninstalled Exchange 2000.
- Prepared
domain for Windows Server 2003 R2.
- Installed
Windows 2003 R2 servers, added to domain, promoted to DCs.
- Demoted
Windows 2000 DCs.
- Upgraded
domain and forest to Windows Server 2003 Native mode.
- Now we
are planning to install Exchange 2007.
The question
I need answered is do I need to Run Legacy Exchange Permissions described in
this document

even though
Ive updated the schema since Ive
Uninstalled Exchange 2000
Thanks

That would depend on whether you cleaned up the exchange 2000 organization from AD.
Its easy to check using ADSI Edit, the following kb833396
If you are planning on installing Exchange 2007 as a brand new organization, then I would delete the old exchange organization from AD, force replication and start afresh - its cleaner that way.
