Re: URGENT: EXCHNAGE SERVER CO-LOCATION
Thank you Paul,
The article has filled some of my knowledge gaps, Yet i am not able to
calculate the bandwith loss if i have the server co-located to 150 Kms far
ISP. Though getting colocated is not advaisable esp a distance of 150 Kms.
But i need to put in black n white to convence the management.
Well if you know any microsoft consultant who don't charge us let me know.
Else my purpose is not solved.
Thank you.

Re: URGENT: EXCHNAGE SERVER CO-LOCATION
The distance to the ISP matters very little. What does matter is the
connectvity that exists between you. If you've got 1500+ users in one
location, you're going to need a relatively big pipe for them to access the
server, we're talking more than a T1/E1 and not cable/DSL. You'll need DCs
in the colocation center or some directory replication.
If things are working satisfactory now, why change?
