You can easily move connection agreements from one ADC to another. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Neil Doody Sent: Friday, July 14, 2006 9:43 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Active directory connectors and child domains
Thanks for the feedback, plenty of helpful answers in there :) The reason behind the two ADC connectors is I want to make a test box here before committing decent hardware to run as our main Exchange 2003, but I wanted to be sure that I can get the proper Exchange 2003 box running ADC in line with the test box, in the end making the proper box the only ADC running exchange server. >From your answers it seems like that wont be a problem :) > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:bounce- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Fyodorov, Andrey > (Citco) > Sent: 14 July 2006 13:59 > To: Exchange Discussions > Subject: RE: Active directory connectors and child domains > > You can run forestprep until you turn blue. > > You can have two ADC machines, but with different connection agreements > on them.
