I am wanting some advice about different directions we could take in the structure of DNS and AD as it relates to a migration from Exchange 5.5 to 2000.
Our current structure is a singe domain called "Assembly". Our Exchange 5.5 server services email sent to "legislature.state.tn.us". Should we : A. Make root DNS Domain, and AD Root Legislature.state.tn.us? This will give us an AD Domain name of "legislature.state.tn.us" and a legacy domain name of "assembly. This seems like the easy route, but I hate that the legacy domain name is different than the new domain name. B. Make the root DNS Domain, and AD Root Assembly.state.tn.us? Will this cause problems with email server since it service email sent to Legislature.State.Tn.US? This Email server also serves as the Exchange Server that users login to. It seems like this route will require some major restructuring of email system. Thanks, Alan List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm
