Hi,
It is not supported to run dcpromo on an exchange 2003 server - it will
break OWA and maybe more.
If you have another server you could install exchange on this server, move
everything and then remove exchange and AD from the original server,
reinstall this serevr, install exchange and then move everything back.

2000
ACTIVE DOMAIN
this server call it MAIL act as DC ( i know i was stuiped ) and has
exchange
server 2003 and IIS, WINS, DNS, all was working fine untill a power
failure
so i lost the replica and the trust cant be given to join the domain again
( and i have made every thing possible to correct it ) any way
i end with this
i wont to remove this server from it's role as DC and put it as domain
member in the active domain

,
and also on the MAIL to demote it locally
but i do not know haw and i need to keep this exchange server keep running
on it ? can it happen and if not how to remove this machine account from
