Hi there If the Front End server is in same site, make sure that it is in the same subnet. If it FE server is not in the same subnet, then you need to specify the subnet in sites and services.

We are having a problem with our Exchange servers contacting our DCs. All of the servers are on the same LAN connected using 3com switches, we are using VLANs, but again all servers are on the same VLAN. We get numerous messages in the event logs that state the DC or the GC could not be contacted, but I can reach them through other network services, it seems only the exchange services can't. The real question is whether or not I should make one of our front-end (OWA) exchange servers a DC? Is there any harm in doing this? I have read white papers that say you should have at least one Exchange-DC and others that say never make an Exchange server a DC. Any ideas or experience with Exchange/DC hybrids? rick _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
