RUS question

[Clayton Sutton]

We are running Win2k3 ent. and Exch 2003 ent with three F/E OWA servers and
four B/E servers. We have two domain trees in a signle AD forest. Can one
(1) of the Backend servers run two (2) "Recipient Update Services", one for
each of the two domains?

One BE can run every RUS on every domain in the forest. If you think
about it you don't have to have an Exchange server in a domain (x for
example) in order to need a RUS for domain x. If you have users in x
then they'll need addresses. A server in y can provide the addressing
for the users in x. It's not strictly a pure Exchange thing.

Cool, that's what I needed to know! Thanks Mark.
