But the argument doesn't stand when you talk about a product like Small Business Server. They are catering for a market that doesn't accept buy hardware is cheap, philosophy. The people in the lower tier obviously want the toys but cannot afford the infrastructure and we have seen the results and to be honest; some work and some don't!. Few thoughts and its back to the horses for courses scenario. Sean McGilligan -----Original Message----- From: Ed Crowley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: December 31 2001 1:10 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: mailbox not creating The consensus in this list about putting Exchange on a domain controller generally focused on two issues, load and recovery. A DC introduces extra load, but most small- to medium-sized organizations wouldn't notice any difference. This argument actually gains weight with Windows 2000 because Active Directory uses more cycles, though cycles are cheaper than they used to be. Putting an Exchange Server on a DC (especially on a Windows NT PDC) makes it take longer to recover, mainly because there are more steps. With Windows 2000, you'll also have replication delays. I agree with Chris that most people won't find these arguments too compelling, but with what computers cost nowadays, having a couple of dedicated machines for domain conrtrollers shouldn't be a big deal.

I always thought Exchange 5.5 on a BDC wasn't an issue and that was a personal choice. As long as your whole backup strategy was sound. But people liked to debate on that, as witnessed on this list about 3 years ago. But exchange 2000 on a domain controller especially if it has the five roles of destiny; makes life interesting and NTDSUTIL takes on a whole new meaning. I prefer the member server approach in that instance.
