Hello, I am in the process myself and have found some documents that are very helpful. Also, If you are not currently in a mixed W2K domain, you will need to promote the Exchange server to a PDC, upgrade to W2K - installing at the very least AD,andDNS. Then load exchange 2000 and follow the documents listed below.

Q297349,Q278017,Q155216, Q215392, Q277844 - Also look for a document called "DNS Requirements for Deploying Active Direcotory, and "Active Directory Integration"

Good luck and let me know how you make out!

I'm sending you by separate email a copy of a good white paper on what you need to consider and how to go about upgrading an Exchange 5.5 server to Win2K. This is the one I used when I did this recently. Hope this helps!
