Before installing Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server, one must prepare his Microsoft Windows 2000 forest. Specifically, the schema in the Microsoft Active Directory directory service must be extended to accommodate Exchange, and permissions must be granted to the users or groups who will be installing the first Exchange 2000 server. Then, in every domain that will host either an Exchange server or mail-enabled users, two security groups must be created. These security groups provide Exchange servers with the permissions they need to perform administrative functions. Included on the Exchange 2000 Server CD are two utilities for accomplishing these tasks: ForestPrep and DomainPrep. This paper summarizes the benefits of each utility, as well as the permissions required to run them.
