Re: DC communication problem

Hi Cary,
On further examination i believe it may be helpful if i upgrade my
Exchange 2003 server (running on Windows 2003) to an additional domain
controller. Any thoughts on this as i have found some people saying in
other groups that this will resolve many of the authentication and
domain communication problems i am having. This would give me 2 local
DCs for 100 users and 2 remote DCs for another 30ish users....


the only question i have is will it effect exchange; do i need to do it
out of hours or is it a short task that can be completed at lunchtime?
When i went through the DCPROMO command, it said
"All encrypted data, such as EFS-encrypted files or e-mail, should be
decrypted before continuing or it will be permenantly inaccessible."
Which is not something i want to happen to our mail or i will really be
for it!! (Drive is compressed if this makes any difference)

Again many thanks and have a great weekend.

Gibo
