I am needing some input here. I took over an IT position that was normally outsourced. The server is running SBS 2003 Premium - no SP1 installed. It's mainly used for email and files. Small company - maybe 30 users total.
The server is quite old and really needs replaced. Plus the company that set it up really messed things up. The owner has decided to purchase a new server with SBS 2003 Premium R2.
My question is how I go about getting the old data off? I am mainly concerned with the exchange folders. I am not worried about the transfer of all the other files..I can figure that out.
Also, the owner is wanting a more uniform name scheme. We have users that log in via just their first name and others who log in via first initial and last name. If I change those users who log in via first name how will that affect my exchange?
Just looking for some input on how to go about this the best way.
Thanks!
Sarah
