I have been hesitant to ask but here goes. Let me lay some ground work before I get into what I'd like to do with exchange.
We have a Root Domain A.com with 2 child domains 1.A.com and 2.a.com the Root domain is empty of users and only has 2 Servers in it both domain controllers for A.com. We have 2 Exchange servers in 1.A.com Exchange 2000 and Exchange 2007 with 5 Domain controllers in 1.a.com site. We have 2 Exchange servers in 2.A.com Exchange 2000 and Exchange 2007 with 5 Domain controllers in 2.a.com site. Everything works just fine there are no issues except. Some day in the next 1 - 2 years 1.A.Com and 2.A.com will become separate companies. So I've been asked if I can introduce new Exchange servers with NEW email address, to a New connection. But keep it all wrapped up in the existing AD structure. Because when we split 1 of the A.com controllers will stay with 1.a.com and 1 will stay with 2.a.com. We will just do some clean up in AD ridding ourselves of the other. 1 of the clean up tasks will be to move the MX records/users mailbox and such but when we do that we want it all on the "new" exchange server. So the question Is there a way to install a new exchange server 2007 into its own not "connecting" it to the existing Servers. I have no issues with making another site or sub domain to make it work i.e. z.1.a.com Any suggestion ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This e-mail message, including any attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential or privileged information.
