Moving X2K3 from W2K server to W2K3 serverCurrently have Exchange 2003 Enterprise installed on a W2K server. I want to
move Exchange to a new W2K3 server AND keep the same server name. Does anyone know of a concise, step-by-step guide to acheive this? KB822945 specifically states the the new computer must have the same OS as the old - so that won't work. The other option is to change the name, but avoid the need to go to each desktop and/or profile to change the exchange server name. On Mon, 28 Nov 2005 13:07:14 -0800, "ljorl"

You have a choice of either moving the servers as per: http://www.swinc.com/resources/exchange/faq_db.asp?status=questions&faqID=1001&faqname=Exchange%202000§ionID=1024§ionName=Exchange%202000%20Move%20Server%20Method which oviously changes the name or you can move to a new box as per 822945 and then upgrade the components. Personally I can't think why you want to keep the same name. Won't I have to modify the Exchange server name on each Outlook client?
