There are 3 categories that you want to synchronize between orgs:

1) User information (so you can have a synchronized GAL).  That article
talks about how to do that using the ADC.  This is one of the two things
that the ADC can do, synch users, groups, contacts, etc.  See Q264482
for how far you can go with support for using the ADC between orgs.

2) Config info about the servers in the org.  This is the other thing
that the ADC can do.  When you use the ADC to synch config info, you
need to realize that you are actually joining the orgs, from a config
and routing information point of view.  This is what allows you to see
all of the 5.5 servers in the ESM console, and allows E2K servers to
know how to route directly to 5.5 mailboxes.  

3) Data, usually public folders, including free/busy information.  This
is really your question.  The answer is "yes, it is supported on E2K".
See Q238573, Q238642 and finally Q316022.

Subject: RE: Interorg tool doesn't work on E2k???HELP!!


Leonard, thanks for your reply.

I had already read this article.

It does not state that the interorg tool works with E2k. It does mention
E5.0+

It states that the following scenarois will be covered.
1. Exchange 5.5 Inter-Organization Solutions
2. Exchange 2000 Inter-Organization Solutions
3. Microsoft Metadirectory Services

What I need is E5.5 - E2k inter-organization solutions.
On the chance that I would find the answer here I looked and did not
find it.

Text from the article....

"This chapter covers only Exchange Server version 5.5 synchronization
and replication with Exchange 2000."

VERY HOPEFUL TEXT!

IT THEN STATES.....

"Many companies that routinely purchase and sell entire companies have
unique directory requirements. To meet these requirements, Microsoft
Consulting Services developed the InterOrg Synchronization tool to
synchronize different Exchange 5.5 organizations into a cohesive
directory"

IT THEN GOES ON TO SAY

"If you have Windows 2000 installed, Active Directory Connector (ADC)
helps synchronize multiple Exchange 2000 organizations and Exchange 5.5
sites into a cohesive directory."

UNFORTUNATELY this article describes how to synchronise Directories
between E5+ - E2k (by directories it means the GAL and accounts).

It does not cover replication of data and routing information between
two orgs.

Am I right or have I messed something?

Regards
RB
