I have exchange 2000 up and running. The file server I have is NT4.0. What precoutions and steps do I have to take to upgrade the file server to w2k? Do I have to do anything on the exchange server when I upgrade the file server?

Make sure you have a good backup of the data, and get any Win2K drivers for your hardware. Then let the upgrade go. You shouldnt have anything to worry about with Exchange2000. Ex2k is on a seperate machine, and to have it installed you must already have AD running. So go for it.

Have the current drivers for your hardware and kow if you want the NT box to be a domain controller or not.
