Mark,
Thanks again. I think maybe the issue may be related to the way the domains
were created. When the second domain was installed it was not setup as a
child domain, it was setup as a new domain, new tree, existing forest. When
adding the AD Domain Controller server role you are given 3 options. The
first is a new forest, the second is a child domain, the third is the option
we used, new domain, new tree, existing forest.
Is it required that the second domain be installed as a child domain in
order to allow an Exchange install running in that domain to see the Exchange
Organization created in the first domain?
Thanks for your help, it is very much appreciated.
