You don't have to install W2K on another domain, on the same server  install NT 
as BDC. promote it to PDC, one u check everything is fine , login scripts etc. 
then upgrade the OS to W2K install Active directory with same domain Name. Test 
ur Active Directory and then use forestprep/domainprep and then install the ADC 
and follow the steps.
Remember this method is time consuming but with virtually  0% downtime.

Vijay

Thanks vijay. But windows NT is installed with exchange  5.5 and if I add new 
win2k server with ADC it  makes a new domain. Windows NT has a different 
domain.

Hi,
you can try these steps......
 
1. Install active directory connector on new w2k server with two way connection 
aggrement to exchange 5.5 and w2k AD.
2. Install Exchange 2000  Join the existing 5.5 organisation.
3. use Active directory users and computers to move the mailboxes.
4. After moving the mailboxes move the connectors services like SMTP etc to new 
server.
5. Move(replicate) the public folder to new server.
6. move the RUS recipeint update service.
7. Remove AD Connector. and finally remove the Exchange 5.5 server.
 
and u'll have the new e2k server with u
 
if you need any other info please feel free to ask......
 
 
Regards,
Vijay Dogra.
