When I bring on board a second windows 2000 box as a domain controller, will I have to move my Imail installation to that server or can I instruct Imail to perform NT authorization on the Active directory on a different machine?
(For what it is worth, we are a very spread out low volume installation.) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Sanford Whiteman Sent: Friday, October 17, 2003 4:46 PM To: Scott R.

The only problems you'll have will be related to resource competition, and whether that will create an unworkable environment--either for AD access, IMail access, or both--depends on the particular usage patterns at your site. If usage is sufficiently low, no one will notice a difference, and only you will know that you have a (temporary) single point of failure for two mission-critical services. If usage is high enough to create a non-negligible, yet non-fatal, impact on your services, you can get away with that for a little while (depending on your manager's attitude!) until the other DC is in prod (at which point you should direct your clients to use the other DC as much as possible). As you can see, it's impossible to read your environment from here, but this could go either way. -Sandy ------------------------------------ Sanford Whiteman, Chief Technologist Broadleaf Systems, a division of Cypress Integrated Systems, Inc. e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------ To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/ --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude Virus] --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude Virus] To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
