I did run setup.exe /forestprep, /domainprep and installed ADC when I migrated Excahnge5.5 to Excahange2K, then removed Excahnge5.5, change mixed mode to native mode and uninstalled ADC 2 yeas ago. We still keep Exch SP1.
One of the reason that I do not upgrade to SP3 is, there is an existing problem as below, I think I should fix the problem before upgrade to SP3, so I decide to build a new Exchange Server, then move all mail box to new server, according to microsoft Technet, it will be saftest way that problem will be fixed by new system.

Did you run E2K setup.exe /forestprep and /domainprep befroe install E2K? This should have disclosed AD problems. I don't know about Q287172. I'd use the adc setup on SP3. It has many fixes for ADC. Also remember to let this sit and perk or a while, so that everything synch's up on its own. Good Luck.
BTW 20 points for E2K ?'s is lame.IMHO ;-)
