Chris,
Not quite as many- We've got 50 sites and two dedicated bridgehead servers, r 100 connectors on each bridgehead. It's been a while but I don't recall any issues when we went from SP3 to SP4. This is probably the hacks Nate was talking about... http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q200259 Cheers, Paul -----Original Message----- From: Couch, Nate [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, June 21, 2002 7:40 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: V5.5 SP3 to SP4 Chris, The only thing I remember hearing is that there is some reghack you need in order to have over - I think the number was 20 - X.400 connectors. You are, however, way over that number so have probably already implemented that. The main thing I can forsee here is that the more X.400 connectors you have on a single server the more resources you chew up and the bigger the Administrative nightmare in your troubleshooting efforts.
