Here's what I might do stuck with poor management as you are. Find a ISP who supports modem bonding. Get yourself a Netopia R2020 (it has two built in modems) it is a router with NAT/DHCP..etc...
Set up the R2020 to dial up DOD to the ISP an set it up to do modem bounding...then setup these new users with exchange accounts on your system and let them do OWA. Quick dirty ...it works... you'll get about 90~100K if the modems bound well. If your really willing o live dangerously..the R2020 will also support a third modem on a aux cable. bound three modems..have fun. In my area my local ISP will do the account for about 40.00~60.00 a month for up to three modems. bill -----Original Message----- From: King, John [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, April 01, 2002 10:20 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Remote Site Question Hello all, I am stuck trying to figure out an email solution for a company that we have acquired. I have until the end of today to do this..! This is a temporary fix until the T1 at the new facility can be put in place. This is the deal, There will be 15 users that need to access email hosted on our Exchange 5.5 sp4 server. The new facility has NO internet connection. We have a RAS server here with 2 lines. We cannot allow this facility to be connected to RAS 24/7 as the lines are shared by multiple other users. The idea that I have is this. I would like to bring an Exchange 5.5 sp4 server down there. I will need this server to dial up the RAS connection to sync the email accounts with our primary ExCh server during off hours. That shouldn't be that hard, but I don't want all of the email accounts to sync. I just need the 15 email accounts in question to sync. Is there a way to specify what accounts to sync, or is it an all or nothing type of deal? I am sorry for the lack of info, as this was tossed onto me this morning. I have never setup Exchange IMS to connect via Dial up so I don't know too much about this. Any help would be much appreciated..
