Case in point, I was working for a defense contractor and we had 5 mail servers(exch. 5.5) and they notoriously went down. If we didn't reboot the servers once a week, they would go down. We took one of the lower tasked servers(500 users) and put it on windows 2000 and didn't have to reboot it for a month and it was still running like a champ. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Roger Seielstad Sent: Wednesday, January 15, 2003 11:10 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Justications to Migrate to Active Directory Add to that the fact that Exchange 5.5 is end of support at the same time, and its pretty much a no brainer. ------------------------------------------------------ Roger D.
