You need Advanced or Datacenter Server if you are using the /3GB feature if you are running over 1GB per box, or if you have Clustering implemented. If you use the Enterprise edition of Exchange simply for more and larger stores, then you don't need anything more than standard Windows 2000 Server. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 26, 2004 11:49 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Design Question Importance: High Well, We're running 5 stores with an average of around 10+ GB on each store. Largest one we have is 25 GB, about 250 mailboxes and getting slue of server issues....lol. Read Cybex book on exchange 2003, and insists when running E2K3 enterprise you must run on advanced 2000 server or win2003 server? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tim Vander Kooi Sent: Wednesday, May 26, 2004 11:28 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Design Question That really depends on what functionality you are trying to get out of Exchange2k3 Enterprise. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 26, 2004 10:12 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Design Question Been hearing some confusing design stuff myself. Should E2K3 run on windows 2000 advanced server or windows 2003 servers only? I have it running on windows 2000 server, but someone was telling me it's not correct setup for exchange 2003 enterprise?

I have a friend with a school system network. 18 locations, 8000 users and a lot of email. Budget is not much of an issue here. Exchange 2000 and a 2000 Domain. Can you have 2003 AD child domain in a 2K Domain. So he can then use 2003 Exchange as the front end server and pick up the spam filters and the better OWA? And still have the email boxes on the 2000 servers. Updating the 2000 Domain at this point is not an option. _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&; lang=english To unsubscribe send a blank email to %%email.unsub%% Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.
