Set exchange up in a hosting environment. You can keep 100's of companies separate
-----Original Message----- From: Ray Beckwith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 03, 2003 2:54 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Exchange and AD Question This question may be a little off the list subject but you guys are some of the best authorities I know so I wanted your opinions. (Note the subtle butt-kissing) Situation: Single domain forest with single Exchange Server and total 4 DC. About 85 Employees. Class C IP block with fixed IP addresses for all. We are in the process of starting up a new venture company and want to keep them relatively separate from our main organization so as they grow, they can be easily separated if so chosen. We have our web presence under ourcompany.org and have reserved a domain theircompany.com for the new company's web presence. We have also set up recipient policies in Exchange to receive email sent to theircompany.com for the first couple users we have set up in our domain. Question. What would be the best way to set up this new company in our AD organization to meet the requirements of easy separation in the future, while allowing us to continue serving them with our single Exchange server and with minimal additional expense and complexity. We have been looking into the possibility of setting up a child domain for them so that they can have separate security and domain suffix but are unsure if we can do this without adding a subnet or some other complexity. I appreciate any opinions or recommendations from the wise ones of the list (more butt-kissing). Thanks...
