Hi,

I've got three Windows 2000 DCs with Exchange 2003 installed on one of them (so have already run the adprep domain and forest update tools from the Exchange 2003 CD).

I now want to add a Windows 2003 (sp2) server as a Domain Controller. Do I have to re-run adprep (forest and domain prep) again from the Windows 2003 CD or will the Exchange 2003 installation have covered it?

Thanks in advance,



Martin

Adprep relates to expanding the schema to include objects not previously in AD. Running adprep for exchange is not the same thing as adprep for NOS.
