Rob you beat me to it... I was going to ask the question of why can't the networks be segmented off so they can't see each other? Is that a possibility?

I think that since autodiscover site information is stored as an SCP in AD for the client access box it would be ok, assuming Outlook iÿÿ½ÿÿ½ÿÿ½ÿÿ½ÿÿ½t caching that URL and it looks to AD for the location. But maybe for OL 2007 to GET the new autodiscover addresses in the departmental forests, it has to be setup again (like new mail profile setup). A quick scan of my registry doesÿÿ¿ÿÿ¿ÿÿ¿½t show my autodiscover URL, so it iÿÿ¿ÿÿ¿ÿÿ¿ÿÿ¿½t a permanent entry.. -troy -----Original Message----- From: Campbell, Rob [mailto:rob_campb...@centraltechnology.net] Sent: Thursday, March 12, 2009 8:37 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Autodiscover service and multiple exchange environments Will that involve doing any work on the client side? -----Original Message----- From: Troy Meyer [mailto:troy.me...@monacocoach.com] Sent: Thursday, March 12, 2009 10:30 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Autodiscover service and multiple exchange environments Couple ways to solve this issue. 1) Manipulate DNS (horrible idea, cant believe I included it as an option) | This will only get you so far, but depending on how your name space is setup, they may be able to manipulate where those autodiscover queries are resolved to internally. 2) Custom Auto Discover sites (Such a better solution) | So in their Exchange 2007 environments they should setup custom autodiscover sites (like https://deptforest.uconn.edu/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml) and then set that to be the internal address on their client access servers. Following successful setup, Outlook should look there instead of to your central server. They can do this for the outside address as well, but the auto-setup feature will never work for them because the default address is built into the client (OL 2007 and EAS), but that is not really a huge deal. Doing #2 should be fairly easy new-autodiscovervirtualdirectory and then set the addresses with set-clientaccessserver. FYI, I have never done this, so if you try it and it works, let me know. (I am currently applying for an EDU job now that has a similar de-centralized campus Exchange).

When setting up a client there is an option at the bottom that allows for manual setup on Outlook 2007. Is there a reason that cannot be done? Or make sure that users are putting in the correct domain information when logging on for the first time? It sounds to me (and I can be totally off here) that this is a user education problem. _____________ John Bowles ________________________________ From: "Boggis, Josh" <josh.bog...@uconn.edu> To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues <exchangelist@lyris.sunbelt-software.com> Sent: Thursday, March 12, 2009 9:34:03 AM Subject: Autodiscover service and multiple exchange environments We have recently deployed Exchange 2007 and setup the autodiscover service. Works great for all of our users. Unfortunately while we are the central IT department for the University, we are not the only area running Exchange. There are several smaller departments that run their own AD Forests / Exchange environments, but their reply address is the same as the one we use.
