I plan to install 4 exchange 2003 servers with RPC-HTTP, on Windows 2003. 2 Clustered mailbox servers, 2 NLB Front-end servers. Question: What Windows 2003 and exchange 2003 versions do I need to do this? ex. Can the front-end servers be Windows 2003 Standard, Exchange 2003 standard? If I plan to install one Exchange 2003 Enterprise server, can I do this on a Windows 2003 standard server? - if yes will I have any restrictions using a windows 2003 standard? Thanks in advance.

As for standard on the FE's, I do believe that is possible but not 100%. > If I plan to install one Exchange 2003 Enterprise server, can I do this on > a > Windows 2003 standard server? - if yes will I have any restrictions using > a > windows 2003 standard? There are no issues running Exchange Ent on Windows Standard. However Windows Standard limitations apply such as no clustering. > Thanks in advance. >
