> Here is the situation that I have, I have a Exchange 5.5 server that is

> PDC to windows 2000 then joint the new windows 2000 server to the same
> domain and run DCPROMO to make it a domain controller of the existing
> domain and once that was completed install ADC in the new server and
> synchronize exchange 5.5 with AD. Then install exchange 2000 in the new
> server and migrate the mailboxes from the old server to the new server.
> The problem now is that the old server that is running exchange on the Win
> NT 4.0 domain is running out space and I don't have enough space to
