Hello,
Thanks for posting!
Question 1:
Because I can only create a new domain named location1.companyname.com,
will this allow me to connect to the other site as a member of
companyname.com
domain?? If not, how can this be accomplished???
No, this will not allow to connect to the other site as a member of
companyname.com domain. You may create a new Windows 2003 server and join
it as a child domain controller. Then you can use ADMT migrate the AD
objects from location1.com to location1.companyname.com.

Question 2:
In order to set up the Exchange 2003 replication, do I have to be a child
domain of the root/parent domain or can a VPN or tunnel be created to
support
replication?
This appears to be an Exchange related issue. I would like to suggest you
open in the microsoft.public.exchange.general newsgroup. That newsgroup is
primarily for issues involving Exchange. We recommend posting appropriately
so you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and so other
partners who regularly read the newsgroups can either share their knowledge
or learn from your interaction with us. Thanks for your understanding!

| I am in the process of upgrading a NT domain to 2003 AD domain. I am also
| migrating from Exchange 5.5 to Exchange 2003 and need to set up
replication
| with another Exchange 2003 server over a WAN connection. Currently, our
| domain name is location1.com and we are planning to join as a child
domain
| and become location1.companyname.com during the in-place upgrade of the
NT
| PDC.
|
| During the in-place upgrade, when I am installing Active Directory it
seems
| that the only working option is to â??Create a New Domain in a New
Forest.â?? If
| I try and choose either of the other options such as â??create a new
child
| domain in a existing domain treeâ?? or â??create a new domain tree in an
existing
| domain forest,â?? the process fails because the parent domain obviously
cannot
| be contacted. Therefore, I am only able to â??create a new domain in a
new
| forest.â??
|
| Question 1:
| Because I can only create a new domain named location1.companyname.com,
will
| this allow me to connect to the other site as a member of companyname.com
| domain?? If not, how can this be accomplished???
|
| Question 2:
| In order to set up the Exchange 2003 replication, do I have to be a child
| domain of the root/parent domain or can a VPN or tunnel be created to
support
| replication?
|
| Any tips or ideas on how this would best be accomplished would be greatly
| appreciated!!!! THANK YOU
