All machines will be in the same room. Server A: DC, App server, F&P server, WG Mail server. Server B: F&P, backups, Internet connection share point, soon to be DC#2. Server C: (glorified desktop): Software distribution point (SUS, etc), IIS server, and all other misc crap that admin geeks like to have but not on "production" servers.
Server A and B are in the same site & domain, server C doesn't yet exist. I also want server C to have a copy of all files changed during that day from A and B (hence the desire to use the fiber connection), so it becomes effectively a "backup caching" machine so my client can restore a file w/out having to get it from tape. Users will map to A and B, but not C, but they will need the ability to talk to it in some fashion in an emergency. In any case, I want A,B and C to talk to each other over fiber, and have them talk to client PC's over copper.
