Patrick,

Yup, followed that entire document. All my Public
folders are home on my new site. According to the 5.5
tool it nolonger see's the old 5.5 sites, just the new 2k
site. But when I launch the EX2K tool it still see's
them both and they are also listed under sites and
services object for Exchange administrative groups.

Thanks,

Jim
