As far as I have heard, Microsoft have stated that Exchange 2K will not
run on a 2K3 box. Exchange 2K3 is out this quarter (alledgedly) and 2K3
SBS is out next quarter. Early adopters were having to continue to use
Exchange 2000 on Windows 2000 servers in a 2003 domain because of this.
Not sure if this has changed over the last couple of months.

I'm not all too sure about the requirement for Exchange 2003. From what
I have read and been told from Microsoft, if you are running Exchange
2000, you will need to make sure you have a COMPLETE backup of your PRIV
and PUB IS(s) as you WILL need to completely re-install Exchange after
the domain re-name.
Also, the Domain Rename tool should ONLY be used as a last case resort.
There are so many "gotchas" and caveats to this tool. It is recommended
that a parallel migration in conjunction with the ADMTv2 be used to do a
domain rename.

Hi Chad,
2003 AD even has a domain rename utility. One of our cutomers went to
200 just for that ability alone. However if you're running exchange,
then an upgrade to exchange 2003 is just about mandatory if you want to
minimise your problems.

Rick

Anyone heard if Windows 2003 can do this? I thought it offered
that function.... Chad

it is my understanding that you cant do a rename. I
could be wrong (it happened once). The only option would be to create a
new domain with a different name, and migrate your resources. If all you
need is different domain aliases, that can be done, but not changing the
actual NetBios domain name.

Does anyone have any experience with renaming a
Domain Name on W2K Active Directory?
