Hi Andrew,
Thanks for your prompt reply.
I misinformed you.
The two questions were somewhat independent of one another.
We do not use SBS- we have two Win2K3 servers, both DC's, one of which
hosts Exchange 2K3.
The SBS question was more for general info about how SBS gets around the
issues reported when exchange is hosted on a DC.
Cheers,
Adrian
