Hello Dean, instead of trying to implement the thing that someone told you to do we
should first try and figure out what you want to do and discover the best way to do
it.

What do you hope to accomplish by putting an exchange server in the DMZ?

I've basically been told that we require an Exchange
system operated within our DMZ setup. After much
reading I've decided to go for a front-end, back-end
Exhange system, with the Exchange front-end in the DMZ
and the back-end in the LAN. However, even though I've
opened up all the ports specified in MS' white papers
between the DMZ and LAN, I cannot connect to the
domain/active directory from the Front-End server. How
do I go about this? I mean all I am trying at the
moment is to connect to our internal Domain by
accessing the network ID in the My Computer properties
and trying typing in the Domain. Do I have to do
anything else?! Sorry for my amateurishness(!) but
we're a small firm and cannot afford a fully-fledged
exchange specialist, thus I'm doing it!
