Chapter Summary
- The roles that can be installed on an Exchange Server 2007 computer are the Edge Transport, Hub Transport, Mailbox, active Clustered Mailbox, passive Clustered Mailbox, and Client Access. You can install Exchange using a wizard or from the command line. The wizard provides more helpful hints if a prerequisite is missing.
- You can install the active Clustered Mailbox and passive Clustered Mailbox roles only on a server that is already part of a cluster. NLB is best suited for the Hub Transport, Edge Transport, and Client Access roles.
- Installation of the Client Access role generates a self-signed SSL certificate. As clients require special configuration to trust this certificate, installing an SSL certificate from a trusted CA is often more convenient.
- OWA can be configured to allow access to internal SharePoint servers and file shares. You can configure the security options to deny OWA users the ability to change their passwords.
- If Exchange Server 2007 is removed entirely from your organization, you have to manually remove the objects that it has created in Active Directory. Rolling back the schema to the condition it was in prior to the deployment of Exchange is possible, though it is a complex operation.
