Re: REPOST: SBS 2000 to Windows & Exchange 2003, new server, same domain

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Thanks everyone,

I have now eliminated the SBS 2000 server completely.

All I was asking for was confirmation that if I bought a new server
and a full Windows 2003 and Exchange 2003 that I could proceed as I
would do for a normal Windows 2000/Exchange 2000 to Windows
2003/Exchange 2003 transition.

I got an aggressive promotion for Swing products I did not need and
not much support.

I don't need support for a standard migration, but because I don't
know and therefore don't trust SBS, I wanted a little support from
those who do understand this complicated product.

I am sorry to say I did not get what I wanted form this group:

The answer to my question is: "Go ahead, for once SBS will not get in
your way."

I have posted separately my experience in the hope that I can save
others a negative experience with SBS and with this newsgroup.

Apologies if I am completely stupid, or being in Europe I don't
express myself clearly.
