Question : Exchange Help

I am getting ready to install Exchange 2010 on 2008 R2. How do I get the current AD off a Windows 2008 DC that is running 32bit? On the other hand, should I create a new AD? Latter on I will have to migrate Exchange 2003 to 2010.

Considerations for using Adprep.exe in Windows Server 2008 R2
In Windows Server 2008 R2, Adprep.exe is located in the \Support\Adprep folder.

Windows Server 2008 R2 includes a 32-bit version and a 64-bit version of Adprep.exe. The 64-bit version runs by default. If you want to run one of the Adprep.exe commands on a 32-bit computer, use the 32-bit version of Adprep.exe (Adprep32.exe).
