I currently have an existing Domain with a few servers all consisting of Windows 2000 servers. I have a couple new servers that I want to install Server 2003 on. I would like to put the two new servers in their own domain and have just the users that need to access them have the appropriate eaccess but yet leave the current access as it is. Can I have both 2003 servers and 2000 servers in the same domain tree without having trouble? I need to know the best way to handle this and if anyone can help me out that would be great. Thanks Perry
Hi, No problem at all. You would need to extend the schema with windows 2003 attributes (I assume that the child domain is going to be a windows 2003 domain) but apart from that just go ahead.

Yes, the child domain would be the 2003 server. Is there anything special that I need to watch out for ? I am a bit new to this and can always use a helping hand. Any good KB articles to look at? I have 317696 adn 814587 in front of me and just need to know of any special concerns. thanks for the reply. Perry "Leif Pedersen [MVP]" wrote: > > Hi, > > No problem at all.

Hi, If you are running exchange 2000 in the root domain you should look out for mangled attributes: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;314649 Leif "Perry" skrev i en meddelelse news:94B8BA8A-E304-4D92-B637-E0570AE4AACA@microsoft.com... > Yes, the child domain would be the 2003 server.
