I've been reading and frankly I'm confused. We currently have a single E2K3 server. It's doing the usual mailbox duties and is enabled for RPC over HTTPS and OWA. We're about to bring a second 2003 box online at a remote site, which will also hold mailboxes, and people will want to use OWA or RPC over HTTPS. Will users at that site be able to access their mail with the existing external facing setup, or would I need to either: a) publish the new server the same as the existing one? b) setup a dedicated front-end server to avoid doing "a"? Thanks in advance.
