Hey Paul, That was my thinking just needed to confirm. So I'm going to setup a single AD forest xyz.com and then deploy exchange on it with a server for each location. That will do right? In addition to the site connectors what will be setup for 2k because they will also have a GC at each site what other connectors will exchange need? In this setup will there be a primary exchange server as such?

If not then use a domain tree structure within the a single forest. Avoid mulitple forest at all costs if at all possible.
