Major Exchange Prob

I reinstalled IIS this morning. Well I uninstalled IIS and then re-installed
it. Now my exchange Routing engine service will not start and I cannot send
messages to any local recipients. I get this error.

Error3: The system cannot find the path specified.


Please help

After you reinstall IIS, you need to reinstall Exchange.
Rerun SBS integrated setup to reinstall Exchange, then reinstall service
packs.

Since IIS SMTP service is a required component for
Exchange Server 2000, I would imagine that the removal of
IIS has caused this and a few other problems that you may
not have noticed. For instance if you look in IIS manager
do you see any of the Exchange folders (Exchange, Public,
ExchWeb, etc)? If not then OWA will be broke as well.
When you re-installed IIS did you make sure and install
the SMTP and NNTP services? If not you'll need to do that
as well. Did you reapply Service packs? Do you have a
backup? If all else fails, I would guess that the best
solution would be to reinstall Exchange after a backup of
what you have now.

So I put in CD 1 and re-run the SBS set up. I cannot just put in cd with
Exchange on it?
