John and Peter, I've read the post enough times now to know that there is not enough information. The said "remote" site is where? How is it connected? Via Frame, VPN, what?
Me thinks his details are vague, therefore my answers were vague and most likely incorrect. Which is WHY I asked for more detail after thinking about it more. Let me put it this way, ask a question without valid information and I'll throw any answer out that I can think of. Maybe John is looking for a backup IMS, maybe he's not. Until he gives full details on how the ENTIRE network is configured and what he desires, I cannot give him a correct answer. I too, have a remote site with an Exchange server in the same site. I have an IMS on both. With that information, what do you think I'm doing? You probably couldn't tell me cus I haven't given you any details of what I want to do, how my network is configured or anything. If you'll notice, my subsequent replies asked for more information because I didn't feel I gave the correct answer. -----Original Message----- From: John Shi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 24, 2001 5:14 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Join the IMS on other Exchange server. Peter, That is what I thought too. I have only one site. That is no need for site connector at all. If there is no need for any additional IMS, how would this server knows how to send the outside email to the IMS server in the central site?

Don, Please reread John's original posting. /Qouote: "All our Exchange server are within the same site."/Unquote. No need for any aditional IMS. /Peter -----Original Message----- From: Don Ely [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 24, 2001 7:44 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Join the IMS on other Exchange server. Again, while my thought process is still churning, we're going to need more detail if you want a valid solution. Thus far, I haven't really given you that, not even sure I should as I get rather torked at people who don't research things themselves. Start with Site Connectors, Dir Rep, etc... How is this remote site connected to you? Or is it? -----Original Message----- From: Don Ely [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 24, 2001 4:40 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Join the IMS on other Exchange server. Me thinks there is a problem with my thought process. How will all incoming mail to that remote server be delivered from your IMS? You're going to have to look into a site connector too. -----Original Message----- From: Don Ely [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 24, 2001 4:37 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Join the IMS on other Exchange server. Yes, that is what I mean. You'll create the new IMS and have it relay mail to your other IMS which accepts your inbound mail. -----Original Message----- From: John Shi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 24, 2001 4:42 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Join the IMS on other Exchange server. Do you mean I still need to set up IMS on the remot server and point to the central IMS server? -----Original Message----- From: Don Ely [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 24, 2001 4:32 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Join the IMS on other Exchange server. Yes, point the Remote server IMS to your IMS and all will be well. -----Original Message----- From: John Shi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 24, 2001 4:37 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Join the IMS on other Exchange server. Hi Everyone, I have another Exchange server set up on a remote site. All our Exchange server are within the same site. We have two IMS in the central site. On a remote site, I would like the Exchange server to use our IMS to send email out to the outside. Do I need to point my remote Exchange server to the IMS or something I need to do to make the remote Exchange server to send the email out through one of our IMS server? We are using Exchange 5.5 server.
