Hi! I recently migration an organization from exchange 2000 to exchange 2003 and successfully moved mailboxes from one server to another and carried out all the steps listed in http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=307917 However on the last step, while trying to uninstall exchange 2000 from the old server, it says that there are still active users in old server. I tried rebooting and deactivate all Ms Exchange services etc but it doesn't want to unistall by itself. Ms has an article on "How to manually remove an Exchange 2000 installation" but I was wondering if I could simply "remove" the old exchange server from the exchange management console and bring the old server offline (since it will be formatted anyway). Can anyone please advise? Thanks Kailash
Hi, You can use ldp to find any mail-enabled users: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;279220 If that doesn't help you can use this to remove the server from active directory: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;278918 Leif "Kailash" wrote in message news:ON5I%23TzwFHA.2228@TK2MSFTNGP11.phx.gbl... > Hi! > > I recently migration an organization from exchange 2000 to exchange 2003 > and successfully moved mailboxes from one server to another and carried > out all the steps listed in http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=307917 > > However on the last step, while trying to uninstall exchange 2000 from the > old server, it says that there are still active users in old server.
