Its fine doing it the way you suggested, DO NOT setup multiple forests, you can only have one Exchange organization per forest and an Exchange organization cannot span multiple forests.

The organisation is small, about 150 users. 100 in canada and 25 in nashville and 25 in Michigan. We plan to setup a single AD forest for the three offices communicating over T1's xyz.com for example. We want to deploy exchange on top of that structure but have an exchange server in each office location so users don't have to cross the internet to read mail. Is this ok to do or do i need to setup multiple forests with multiple exchange organisations? ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Exchange Newsletters: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/newsletter.asp Exchange FAQ: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ ISA Server Resource Site: http://www.isaserver.org Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this MSExchange.org Discussion List as: mark@xxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send a blank email to $subst('Email.Unsub')
