No you won't :-) Because a Windows 2000 Forest can only contain one Exchange 2000 organization and this would have been established by installing the first Exchange 2000 server, because the second Exchange 2000 server is in the same AD Forest it will automatically be a member of the same Exchange 2000 organization, you are correct about the Routing Groups, but without knowing more about the environment it is hard to say if he needs more than one RC. Not sure what you mean by "it will prompt you for the replication method"?

Has anyone got some guidance on installing multiple exchange servers = (just 2!) in the same windows 2000 .local domain? Many thanks.
