Mark,

I've seen the above document before .. and stuck with one-way CA's after having 
problems with two-way connections where processing/updating of a large number of 
objects is involved. In addition to your comment concerning separate CA's, I'd also 
add that mapping sites/recipients across to OU's on a one-to-one basis CA wise can be 
beneficial, particularly if you're dealing with a large number of foreign recipients 
within the 5.5 org.

Regards,
Mylo

Except that 2 one-way agreements are specifically advised against by MS.  As
you've obviously seen you can get away with them sometimes (and we have in
the past) but I wouldn't actively recommend it especially as it comes up in
the MS top ten list of directory service support calls.

See http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q303180

Go for one-way initially by all means but then turn it into a two-way by
checking the appropriate box on the CA.  We used separate CAs for MBXs, DLs,
CRs to divert them into separate containers.

Regarding your original question you will eventually want to repoint your
other 55 Site and Directory Replication Connectors at the first sites E2K
SRS server, so there's no harm in doing this asap rather than wait for the
last server to go.

Mark
