What you are describing is not possible with out of the box exchange. Win2k Advanced will not allow for load balanced fail over. At best the load balancing service is a glorified round robin DNS implementation. That allows for users to see one name while many answer the call. That is all you will get.
At best you can have a duplicate DC/GC on the other end and a similar exchange server that could take over, house that building email. You will also need a recover network so you can recover the other server to get the old mail boxes from a tape drive. You vision is a very hard one to accomplish and once you saw my bill not a cost effective one. -- Dr. Milton R. Dogg Of the Dogg Foundation -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Tener, Richard Sent: Wednesday, December 19, 2001 1:02 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Disaster Server I have one exchange server in my office nt4 exchange 5.5sp4. We have two buildings across the street from each other connected by a aironet bridge. The other building doesnt have a server but we want one there as an exchange server 2000 with clustering to the other server. The old exchange server will be upgraded with exchange 2000 with windows 2000 advance server to replicate with the server across the street. With the aironet bridge are we able to cluster over this or should we use a partial T1. We want this server to be in the other building so if one building was to burn down we could pick up the in the other building on the same day and not lose any time. Any suggestions would be great thanks RT _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
