Phillip,

What's the truth here? I have attended a Microsoft technical roadshow
recently where the presenter in two of the sessions recommended putting file
and print services on a DC. I have also had a MS PSS rep advise exactly the
opposite. Same with whether Exchange should be hosted on a DC, MS initially
said NO but again last week a MS Exchange Evangalist said it was OK to run
Exchange on a DC.

Also, on a MOC course we were told always specify two DC's for each domain,
folks here have specified just the one. It's enough to send some mad.
