This would involve a different process. You will need to install exchange on a new box with a different name. Ensure that both boxes are up and running, then move mailboxes from the old server to the new server. Lastly decommission the old server by uninstalling exchange from the server Regards Seyi -----Original Message----- From: Chris Maciejewski [mailto:CMaciejewski@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, May 18, 2004 12:17 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Moving Exchange 2003 http://www.MSExchange.org/ Hi all, What if you don't need to keep the same name?
