At this point, I'd probably stand back and let them try it and see if it works. Doesn't seem like they pay attention to your recommendations anyway.

Since then they decided to have OWA as their primary client and install Verisn SSL all on the same box which also obviously is running as a DC. There about 1000 + users and 3/4 will be using OWA. Current server HP LPRII with PIII 1ghz, 512MB and a 18GB Raid 5. I am worried about performance. Talked them into purchasing at least one another box to off load services. My intention was to make the new server a DC controller and demote the current E2K to a member server. Also move OWA and SSL on to the other box. If so then I would need Enterprise version to enable Front/Back end then? Also they may throw in another 512MB and another processor to the original server. Any comments appreciated. _________________________________________________________________ Join the world's largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
