How do I get into exchange server to setup a mailbox for a user? Can I
do this from active directory? I don't see exchange system manager in
my programs list.

Where are you trying to do this from? On the Exchange Server?
- Exchange Server(s) have Exchange Management Tools installed
- To do this from DCs, install Exchange Management Tools by running Exchange
setup. Will need the Exchange pre-reqs (IIS, SMTP, et al).
- From a member server running Windows Server or from a Windows XP client -
install Windows Server admin tools (adminpak.msi), Exchange Server pre-reqs,
and Exchange Management Tools from Exchange setup.

Once Exchange Management Tools are installed, you can use the New User
wizard in AD Users & Computers - it will show Exchange-specific tasks and
relevant tabs will show up in user properties.

Please don't take this the wrong way, but I think you need to research
Exchange, and your Exchange/network setup first. First task is to learn how
to backup Exchange.

I get worried when someone who wants to manage an Exchange server doesn't
know how to access the administrator console or add a mailbox......

It's incredibly easy to trash an Exchange setup and not so easy to
recover....
