Well Michael, your scenario involves many Q&A... infraestructure (physical and
logical), messaging, administration (central or distributed), domains, etc.
etc. and a lot of planning...
The big questions is where do you want to be tomorrow? Would you like a single
AD forest with a single domain and 7 sites, or 7 domains, or x forests with or
with out relation trusts? That depends on your infraestructure (type and speed
of links, etc) and political and administration issues. The same goes with your
messaging environment...
You can migrate AD from one forest to another, but it isn't a simple task,
there are a lot of considerations to take into account, and that depends on the
complexity of your infraestructure.
Regards,
Julio

Julio,
Thanks for the response. Do you know of any Q articles or whitepapers that
address this type of mixed environment? Also, can you provide me any feedback
on the following scenario?
The Department of Labor has 7 agencies, all on their own separate physical
networks. Each of these agencies has their own messaging platform. Four of
them are already on Exchange 5.5, two of them on GroupWise, and one of them on
Unix SendMail. We are presently trying to design a 5.5 solution that includes
creating a single DOL organization and migrating each of the Agencies to the
Exchange Organization. One of these Agencies has recently reported to us that
they are 3/4 of the way through implementing Windows 2000 with AD (Native Mode)
Single Forest. I'm trying to get a handle on what concerns and technical
solutions will be required with regards to this one Agency. Everyone else will
be on NT 4.0 domains.
If an Agency here at DOL has already implemented a Windows 2000 / Active
Directory (NM) within it's own Forest, is it possible to migrate that Forest
into a new DOL Forest at a later date. How will an Agency already on Windows
2000 with AD migrate to the new DOL.gov? Are there any complications? Does it
matter whether this Agencies W2K/AD is in native or mixed mode?
Thanks in advance Julio. I appreciate your insight and support!

It can be implemented, in fact I have many customers that have migrated to W2K
(native mode) but still use Exchange 5.5.
But you will experience problems if you install Exchange 5.5 on a DC, both use
LDAP port 389 for directory lookups. So the best solution is to install
Exchange on a Member Server or change the port it uses if you have no
alternatives to install it on a DC.

I'm interested to know if anyone has a technical reasons why Exchange 5.5
can not be implemented into a Windows 2000 / AD Domain running in "NATIVE"
mode.
Thanks in advance for your replies. Feel free to call me or email.
Thanks!
