Sounds like a very interesting lab test.  Thank you for the suggestion.

That is what I said.  But I haven't tried it myself, so I don't know for
sure that it would work.  But I don't know why it wouldn't work.

Did I misread--if the early adopter site keeps one 5.5 server, and keeps
an ADC to that, and that 5.5 server keeps a directory replication
connection to the non-AD site--the goal is that clients in the AD site
be able to see the other (non-ad) site mailboxes in their directory.

I could be wrong on this because I haven't researched your particular
example, but I believe that as long as they have one Exchange 5.5 server
in their site, you can maintain Directory Replication Connectors with
that server.  So that early adopter site would maintain an ADC between
their new Exchange 2000 administrative group and that Exchange 5.5
server.

I have the current situation:

two domains, one org. exchange 5.5 sp4.  Multiple sites, some connected
via IMS Connected Site with directory replication connection over vpn.
At present the vpn only allows smtp traffic.  Each side can control only
their own mailboxes (which is fine).

One domain in one country is beginning planning for a migration to AD
and E2k, anticipating but not requiring the other countries to do the
same, so there will be placeholders in the design for them.

It appears we need AD connection agreements with each site, but it
doesn't appear that this can run over smtp.  Without that, am I correct
in thinking that AD will see only the 5.5 users from sites with an ADC?
And as we migrate to E2k, the outlook clients on will use AD as the
directory, rather than the 5.5 DS?

Is there a way around without requiring opening the VPN?
