The normal situation for creating a "recovery environment" would be
1. Setup a new domain controller in the production domain.
2. Wait for replication.
3. Relocate the new domain controller to its own network completely
disconnected from the existing domain/network.
4. Seize the FSMO roles on the new domain controller.
Now you can install Exchange on a member server which you joined to this
recovery domain with the same name as the Exchange server from the
original
domain. Use the /disasterrecovery install mode prior to restoring your
Exchange backup. For more details, google "Exchange disaster recovery".

Okay, so would it be possible if I had two boxes sitting on a switch, a
Win2k domain controller with AD and an Exchange box and replicate the
production AD to the "recovery AD" using the Active Directory Migration
Tool?
I'm just looking for an inexpensive way to recover Exchange items using
hardware and software I already have at my disposal.
Thanks
Bret

Exchange 200x requires an AD domain environment for installation.
A server that is not a domain member has no such thing.
So if you're going to do restores, you'll have to use something other than
Exchange. Data Recovery outfits have tools that can read Exchange backups
and restore messages or mailboxes without Exchange. Here's one:

I am currently backing up our Exchange Server 2000 (on a 2000 domain) with
Backup Exec 10 & the Exchange agent.
I would like to do restores to a box that is not a domain member to
recover individual items or mailboxes.
I have Googled with no avail. Is this possible? Is there a white paper
that explains the procedure?
Thank you,
Bret
