Microsoft Active
Directory Connector (ADC) replicates directory
information between the Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.5
directory and the Microsoft Windows 2000 Server Active
Directory.
Set up and configure a user Connection
Agreement. There are ten steps to create this type of Connection
Agreement, and there are many options for each of those
steps. More...
User Connection Agreements are used to synchronize Active
Directory objects between Exchange 2000 Active Directory and the
Exchange 5.5 directory. Configuration Connection Agreements are
automatically created to synchronize configuration information
between Exchange 2000 servers and Exchange 5.5 sites. More...
When ADC is running, it can utilize the
majority of the processing power of the server. This consumption
level is constant until all replication is complete; however, the
load placed on the bridgehead servers is low compared to the server
running ADC. More...
When replicating directory information using a
Connection Agreement, you can use a policy to set the attributes
that will be replicated. You can also customize object matching
rules. More...
You can monitor ADC by reviewing the logging
events from the Windows 2000 Event Viewer. You should monitor the
activities of each Connection Agreement to ensure that proper
directory replication is accomplished. Monitoring should be a part
of regularly scheduled maintenance. Regular maintenance helps you
keep directory replication performing optimally, and can help you
keep failures and errors to a minimum. More...
