Read the FAQ's on moving 5.5 to another computer, and I have done it before, just been a few years.

We are moving the bridgehead from NT to 2000 this weekend.
Is there anything that is not mentioned in the FAQ's I should be on the lookout for?

We are doing this in preparation for active directories, we are not on active directories at this time.

Our thinking is we stop services on the NT box
copy the files over to the 2000 box,
remove the nt box from the domain
joing the 2000 box to the domain with the same name as the NT box
check permissions on the files moved over
run optimizer
run exchange up on the 2000 box

any comments?

Thank you
TimC
