one domain two exchange servers (ex2k3 and ex2k) |
|
|
I need to figure out the best way to design a new satellite office on a
point-to-point VPN. There will be 50 users at this location and I need to
configure a Windows 2003 Server as a DC and an Exchange 2003 server on a
stand-alone server running Windows 2003 Server. The question I have is
regarding the exchange server and proper way to setup and configure.
Main location is 70 users using win2k and winxp, office2K, AD, Exchange
2000, and 2 domain controllers.
Can I add this new Exchange 2003 server to my current Exchange 2000 server
at my main location and have all mail routed though it? What else is needed
to configure this new Exchange 2003 server to work properly and have all the
public folders replicated and access is permitted? And i'd like to have OWA
working on the exchange 2003 server as well.
Any feedback is well appreciated.

Peter-
This is easy enough to do. Just create a second routing group and an smtp
connector to connect the routing group for the satellite and home offices.
If you want to have all your PFs replicated as well, create a PF store on
teh satellite Exchange store, adn then you can use use the Send Public
Folder Tree right click option in ESM to replicate from the existing server
ot the next.
As far as OWA, it works by default. In a multiserver config, you'd ideally
want to have a dedicated frontend, probably at your home office. If that
isn't feasible, you'll need to create an OWA URL for the satellite users,
which maps to the satellite exchange box, and a seperate OWA URL for the
home office users, which maps to the home office mailbox server.

Thanks Brian.
In the past I have done multiple E2K servers but I thought the E2K3 would be
a bit different and tougher. Been reading and found some things that I will
apply to this design.
Thanks again.
