Hi and thank you for your reply,
I have follow one of the MVP guy instruction(unfortunately i guess i double
post and that post was kill and so i don't recall his name) from this web
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;822945&Product=exch2003 .
The problem that i'm currently having is that i use the Windows 2003 Backup
utility to backup exchange and when i try to load it up on the new system it
doesn't work. it keep giving me error without any report. I try Veritas
Backup Exec version 9.0 and it keep giving me error "Access is denied". I
also try to do a setup /disasterrecovery from the instruction but the
software continue to require that i do a /forestprep (i have done that so
many time now with no error). Any suggestion on any thing i can try or
software i should use to do the backup? I don't have any type of backup
device so i'm currently using file on disk method.
btw per your question about having two computer with the same everything on
the network at the same time, i disconnect one and put one on at a time.
Thank,
