Directory Services White Papers

Understanding and Troubleshooting Directory Access

Overview This paper discusses the interaction between Microsoft Exchange Server 2000 and Microsoft Active Directory directory service. Unlike earlier versions of Exchange, Exchange 2000 does not have its own directory service; instead it relies entirely on Active Directory for configuration and user information. In large companies, Active Directory designs can be complex. Understanding how Exchange 2000 interacts with Active Directory domain controllers and global catalog servers will help one to design a high-performance, reliable Exchange 2000 service.
