One forest, one Exchange, two domains. Make 'em work?

Rodrigo A B Freire · Joined: 09 Nov 2007 Posts: 4

Hello,

As stated on the thread title we have a single forest, with one
Exchange Server 2007 and two domains (distinct domains; not
subdomains); saopaulo.corp and brasilia.corp.

The FSMO, RID and Exchange are set on the saopaulo.corp domain. The
Exchange server is already deployed and working on the Saopaulo domain
& users.

Can I add support for brasilia.corp users on my Exchange Server?

Thanks,

Rod.

Yes, by adding the second domain as an Accepted Domain, and creating a new
Email Address Policy for it.

Hello Bharat,

Well, it's done already. But, how to *bind* the mailbox with the AD
*other domain* account?!

When creating a new mailbox on the server, the only domain available
to add the users/mailboxes are in saopaulo.corp.

Surely on the server you'd just edit the user in the basilia doman, go to
exchange tasks, create mailbox, and then choose the saupaulo mailbox
information store?

Hello James,

No. In the Brasilia subdomain there's no mention to the Exchange on
the Active Directory.
Well, I'm considering giving up and installing a new server on the
Brasilia domain.

In Exchange Server 2007, you use Exchange management tools - the console
(EMC) or the shell (EMS) - to manage recipients.
You're not going to find any Exchange tasks in AD Users & Computers on
either domain.

If you want to mailbox-enable existing users in bulk:
Exchange Server 2007: Bulk mailbox-enabling users using Exchange Shell
http://exchangepedia.com/blog/2006/12/id-written-about-how-to-bulk-create.html

Assuming you've already run /PrepareDomain on the second domain (if the
domain existed before, this should've been done during setup, but you can
always run the command again)?

Thank you all for the time and attention; I'll deploy a *new* exchange
server on the other domain...

Thanks again!

RF.

I'm sure that'll make Microsoft happy, but it is completely unnecessary in
this scenario from all I can tell... Smile

Figured out by myself.

Had to prepare the other domain with the procedures stated at:

Simple like that!
