Hey guys,
I was wondering how to finish setup on this new (old) W2k server of mine. I have it running DNS and AD right now with 3 users and two machines in its domain (xxx.local) . I recently installed IIS and got through the basic setup of Exchange Server 2003 (ran DomainPrep and ForestPrep, and did the typical install). I am going to be running Exchange SP1, iislockdown, and urlscan in a few moments once it reboots from the initial setup.
So where do I go from here? How do I get the rest of the email set up? Do I need to get into contact with my ISP and have them hook me up with something??? And do you have any other suggestions for me? Thanks for all of your help!
EDIT -- I figured out I need to register my SMTP domain, get an internet IP address for it, and get a mail-exchange record, and get the ability to resolve other external internet addresses. Is this something I need to take up with my ISP?
EDIT #2 -- I can purchase a static IP from sprint. Would I need this, and go to some other place like http://www.dyndns.org/ to finish the deal???
