Search Microsoft's help site - they have posted the way to remove exchange
manually.

I did not run fdisk and the result is what I feared would happen. Reinstalling
the OS is my last resort. This server is the only one in existence in the
company. Is there any way that I can remove exchange and Active Directory
completely without reinstalling SBS?

Geoffrey, did you reinstall sbs over the existing system or fdisk and start
from scratch? Also you need to remove all entries to this server on your wins
and DNS servers. If you don't you will receive errors related to existing set
of credentials already exist. Remove the entires and let the system build new
ones. See it this works otherwise - reinstall the system from scratch. Exchange
2000 runs everything in IIS so be especially careful with IIS configurations.

Hello All,
I need some help but I need to give the full background so please bear with me.
I have a client with SBS server and Exchange 2000 installed on his company
server. At intitial configuration, the hard drive crashed corrupting the
existing operating system. I reinstalled a new operating system but since then
I have had many problems.
The SBS installs without error but when I attempt to configure Exchange 2000,
using administrator 5.5 which is what is provided, I have started recieving
many errors. I have to this point managed to get the office mail working to a
certain extent, I.E. users can send mail through the exchange server to the
internet and mail is coming in from the ISP to the server but is not being
distributed to indivdual users. As well, in Exchange administrator 5.5, I
cannot create a new Internet Mail Service as I am told that there is already a
service in existence on the server. I cannot see the service however, all that
is listed is an SMTP connector that does not allow me to configure for
indvidual mailbox delivery. I also cannot access public folders in order to
share contacts and the calender.
I need helo in a big way. If the best solution is removing and reinstalling
Exchange I am willing but I have tried this and still recieve that same errors
which is I believe, due to the fact that many exchange entries and files are
not being removed. I also tried removing and reinstalling the active directory
connector and the installing a new Internet Mail Service but when I complete
the wizard i am prompted that files are missing and I cannot find them anywhere.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!
Thanks in advance
BIM
