They also changed the licensing in W2k3 terminal server, not sure I like their reason for doing that little change. I figured their reason was for sites doing an in-place upgrade, but not yet ready to make the exchange conversion, however I'm doing a parallel conversion so I was just wondering if the ADC was needed. I have checked the documentation, and am in the process of doing it again, but only to see if I really need it at all. I know it will work through the trust relationship as I have it running in the lab with out the ADC and my AD users have accounts on the 4.0/5.5 server. Thanks Jeff

We are doing a new AD design and trusting back to our 4.0 domain then using the ADMIT tool to migrate users/computers and passwords over to the new domain structure (going from two to one). My thinking today has jumped over to the why do I even need to worry about the connector and upgrading exchange since part of this entire conversion is new exchange hardware anyway. We are going to wait until this fall and go right to Ex2K3 from 5.5 and skip over Ex2K. So here is my thinking, if I leave the old server alone, running on 4.0 in the old domain, then when 2K3 is released and I get the software build a new server in the AD on Win2K3. Wouldn't I be able to join that to the 5.5 organization and move the users over to the new server. Decommission the old server and remove the 4.0 infrastructure? _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&; lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang =english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
