XADM: Administrating Exchange Servers in Multiple Domains (146321)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0
- Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0
- Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5
This article was previously published under Q146321 SUMMARY
In addition to administering a Microsoft Exchange Server in your domain, it
might be necessary to administer a Microsoft Exchange Server in an
untrusted domain (when setting up a site connector, for example). This can
be accomplished by creating identical accounts (username and password) in
both domains and making sure that this account has the necessary
permissions on the Microsoft Exchange objects.
If you have two domains, EAST and WEST, and they do not trust each other,
create an EXADMIN account with a password of EXADMIN in both domains. On
the Microsoft Exchange Servers in those domains, give EXADMIN
administrative privileges in the Organization, Site and Configuration
containers. Once this is done, you will be able to connect to and
administer both Microsoft Exchange Servers when logged in as EXADMIN.
