That's how I am doing it. Each front-end has an SMTP Connector defined around it (local bridgehead) and the first SMTP Connector has address space = 1, while the other one = 2
It would be really nice if MS allowed to define local bridgehead based on the WLBS name of the WLBS-ed front-ends :) I am not sure if this will rowk too, maybe it will (but I can't stop production to test this right now) - have one SMTP connector based on both front-ends as local bridgeheads. I remember doing it in the past and I remember that I lost some flexibility -----Original Message----- From: Leo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, May 24, 2002 1:40 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Mind gone blank - easy question for a Friday! My mind has gone blank for the moment sorry folks this is a silly question but.... We have many exchange 2000 servers and we want two dedicated IMS servers one as a standby in case the other fails (as we used to on Exchange 5.5). How do would you set this up? My guess is ..... Mailbox servers with no changes to the virtual smtp server Two IMS servers with an smtp connector each with the address space of *, one with a cost of 1 and the other server with a cost of 10. Each SMTP connector lists itself as the local bridgehead and the same smart host record. Is this correct?
