Is ADC required?

[MISBoston]

Hello, all. Here's a basic question. I recently set up a new W2K domain controller in my network. Exchange 5.5 is running on a separate NT server. Is running Active Directory Connector absolutely required in order for W2K DC and Exch 5.5 servers to communicate?

Thanks,

The answer would be yes to that. The ADC provides communication between Windows2000 Active Directory and the Exchange 55 directory by setting up connection agreements.

Also setup the ADC on the Global Catalog Server (Recommended by Microsoft)
