I am newbie have an NT Server with a single domain called NTDOMAIN and Exch5.5 working fine. &nbsp; In order to upgrade to Exch2000 I need to setup Active Directory on the network.<br />
<br />
I took another server and installed W2KAdvServer and created a new Domain? called W2KSERV using Active Directory. &nbsp;(well I say Domain because it looks like a domain to NT) <br />
<br />
Is this a domain - a tree or a forest - I am new to active directory
