Hi everyone, Happy Holidays to all!!

I am trying to upgrade my Exchange 5.5 system to 2K now that I have my
Win2K AD up and running (thanks to all who helped).  I read and re-read
the white paper on Exchange 2K installation and followed all the
procedure but now, I'm not sure what else I need to do.  The 5.5 is an
old box so I will leave
it as is.  I added a E2k box which is also a DC in the AD.   It does not
contain the GC however since I have the GC in my other W2k box which is
also running as a DC and PDC.  

I followed the E2k procedure of adding ADC (setting up a CA between my
Exch 5.5 and AD).  I run this CA on the DC which was not the Exch 2k
box.  I also setup another CA between my Exch 5.5 public folder and AD
but this time, this CA is on my Exch 2k box.

Then I did the /ForestPrep and /DomainPrep.  Everything went well so
far. The install of E2K was also uneventful during which I joined the
5.5 site.  

So now, when I run Exchange System Administrator from my E2K box, I can
see all the public folder but when I click on all receipient, I don't
see anyone.

Am I missing something?  When do I delete my 5.5 server?  Do I have to
do anything before I delete it so that I can be native E2K?

Thanks for any advice

Vince
