Hi everybody: I have to migrate Exchange 2000 to Exchange 2003 but the new Exchange 2003 is going to be in a new machine. I have read that i have to move all mailboxes to the new server with Exchange 2003 but what happens with clients??. I mean, both servers Exchange 2000 and Exchange 2003 can't have either the same name nor the same IP and my Outlook clients are configured to the Exchange 2000 server. What can I do so clients point to the new server without having to change the Outlook client. Thank's in advance
Hi Solboy! Just keep old Exchange 2000 server up&running until all clients at least once try to connect to it - they will be automatically rerouted to new Exchange server... You can safely remove old Exchange server after all clients reconfigure... -- Regards, Sasa Milovanovic MCSE:Messaging sasa.milovanovic(at)exchangemaster.net "Solboy" wrote in message news:%23vBXMXwKGHA.2696@TK2MSFTNGP14.phx.gbl... > Hi everybody: > > I have to migrate Exchange 2000 to Exchange 2003 but the new Exchange 2003 > is going to be in a new machine.
