OLD DC Hardware to new machine

[wizkid00]

hello everyone

i have a scenario i need some assistance with.

i have a dc running 2k3 enterprise current roles
DC
Dns
Dhcp
AD
exchange
i wanted to move this to a new server i have enterprise 2k3 on this new one as well.
I wanted to create a new domain and put Exchange 2k7 on this new DC too.

i do not know if i can create a new domain and if the move of AD and all users and the exchange is a large hassle...i imagine it is a task i know its a 12 hr job ballpark.

your help is much appreciated.

above is a link that is for migrating SBS 2000 to 2003 but the same principal applies here. You would just ignore all the SBS setup stuff. You can probably start at step 3. This will allow you to migrate all users, computers, data, etc...

does anyone also know if Exchange 2007 can be ran in a enterprise version of win2k3 under 32 bit?

No, Exchange 07 is 64-bit only.
