I upgraded my winnt 4.0 server to Win 2k and I am having problems upgrading my Exchange to 2k. What do I need in my DNS for Exchange? The MSExchange MTA service will not start and I think part of it is that it cannot connect to the DNS?

Try this link. Are you sure your DNS is active directory integrated, allowing dynamic updates. Are you sure you ran /forestprep and /domainprep switches on the exchange install first. Try the following Q article for more info. Remove any spaces in the URL. HTH http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;324318#3
