> Dear Tim,

> The First thing you will do is join the server to the domain

> 1. Bring New PC and install on it Windows 2000 Advanced server .
> 2. Name this PC with this Name " mail".
> 3.join this PC to the domain .
> 4.log in to this PC with the Administrator Account (
> Enterprise Administrator ).
> 5. Put your exchange CD in the CD Drive , and run the
> following command ( setup/forestprep ).
> 6. the same command but ( setup/domainprep ).
> 7. after that complete the setup Normal.
> 8. then restart your server ( mail ) and then you will see

> Please test this is on the Testing Pc's only . and inform me
