I guess there is no Exchange Management tool for Exchange 2000 and 2003.

You will have to install the Exchange Management tool for 2007 on the media server

You should be able to install both management tools on the media server.

Keep in mind that you need the same patch level for the Management Tools and your actual exchange installation. So if your Exchange is SP2 the mgmt tools also have to be service pack 2

Just to be clear, I should be able to install exchange 2007 management tools on the same media server which exchange 2000 management tools already installed on and will not affect or break 2000?

I think it should be no problem, but do not try to manage exchange 2003 with the exchange 2007 tools and vice versa.

Normally the time you run with exchange 2000 and exchange 2007 will be limited, only during the transition fase.
