RE: Removal of First Server in Site Question.

[Pfefferkorn, Pete (PFEFFEPE)]

Thanks, that's kind of what I thought.  Since any server can resolve, should
I then point it to the primary exchange server that houses the majority of
the mail accounts or would it be better to select a server with the least
amount of load.  I'm leaning toward SYSTEMD which is the IMC and PDC, since
it will be on the same segment as the main Exchange servers.  It also is our
OWA access point as well.

Ah.... then it doens't matter. Any server in the site can resolve the
username and point the profile to the correct server when creating the
profile.
