It makes no sense to me to maintain it on a separate server for less than 50 people.
For Exchange2000 Standard, you no longer have the choice. IIS will be there. My as well get used to it. :o) William -----Original Message----- From: Fred Valdez [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 10, 2002 11:09 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: OWA on Exchange Thanks William, You always have great info to share...as usual...we are a small enterprise (under 50 people)...so I don't think performance will be an issue (also upgrading the exchange server hardware)...your right, my concerns do deal with having to enble IIS and constantly making sure all the patches are applied.

Cons: IIS and the related patches reside on the mail server. Server performance burdened with IIS and Exchange on the same box. Applying IIS patches to your exchange server can be annoying.
