Questions with a new Lync 2013 install
Hello,
I am getting ready to install Lync 2013 and have a couple questions.
Removing and deactivating LCS 2005
I already have LCS 2005 and I plan to remove this before install Lync. I have a front-end server and an Access Proxy setup.
I am following the guide here to do this. Do I need to deactivate the LCS proxy and uninstall it first or the front-end server?

Question Regarding Remote Administration Tools
My Lync 2013 server will be running on Server 2012. It tells me that I need to install remote administration tools on the front-end server. My domain and forest level is 2003. This won't affect anything will it?
Certificate Authority
I don't have CA installed on my domain controller. I was just planning on using digicert for my external and internal certificates. Is this possible?

I don't have a 64 bit DC.
You should be ok running the AD prep from the Lync server

I read that if you have a 32bit DC, the AD prep does not work from the installer?
Also, do I deactivate/uninstall my Proxy/archiving server first?

okay I have uninstalled and deactivated both servers. From reading I am going to manually import the Schema changes using ldifde but I have a question. the example shows the following.
ldifde -i -v -k -s DC1.intranet.domain.com -f ExternalSchema.ldf -c DC=X "DC=contoso,DC=local" -j c:\Schema
I understand the first entry is my schema master DC, but what about DC=X "DC=domain,DC=com
let's say my FQDN is intranet.domain.com. Does that go in the next line?
