Yes, but you will need to have a separate hostname (e.g., mail.domain.com) on the Cobalt to handle the mail. Then, on the RaQ, make the following DNS records: 1. Set up an A record for mail.domain.com pointing to the IP (for mail.domain.com) on the Cobalt 2. Set up an MX record for domain.com pointing to mail.domain.com 3. Set up an A record for domain.com pointing to the IP of the Win2K server 4. Set up an A record for www.domain.com pointing to the IP of the Win2K server -- Bruce Timberlake Technology Engineer Sun Cobalt Server Appliances Sun Microsystems, Inc.
