Hi Grouop,

I am sure this has been addressed here before, but I didn't see any
reference to it in a brief search. I have an SBS 2003 server which I want
to go away and be replaced with a 2003 Standard server with Exchange 2007.
Any tips or tricks? Do I need the 2003 Transition Pack to accomplish this?
Ideally I'd like to copy my AD and Exchange off the SBS box and onto the new
server... Thanks for any input!
