AD replication

[Gene B.]

If a company has a DC at the main location running
Windows 2003 Server Standard with DNS, WINS, DHCP, and Exchange 2003 and
wants to put a BDC with Echange at the remote location. Would anyone suggest
upgrading their Internet service?

Both locations have cable modems for theirs internet access
Bandwidth test results are listed below.

Main Office
Your download speed : 1234 kbps or 154.3 KB/sec.
Your upload speed : 685 kbps or 85.6 KB/sec.

Remote Office.
Your download speed : 1284 kbps or 160.5 KB/sec.
Your upload speed : 581 kbps or 72.7 KB/sec.

Main Office has 15 Users. Remote office will have 10.

Thanks

my suggestion would however be: get exchange of the DC! ;-)

Kind of hard to suggest that when we don't know the usage of the users
but if I had to guess I'd say yes because not counting traffic from the
servers communicating the users only have around 5kb/sec each (for
download) which is the same as dialup.
