SBS 2003 - DNS settings for Exchange...

I have a domain registered and hosted with 1and1.com

I am running Exchange server on the Small Biz Server 2003.

I need email to come to my exchange box (which has a live IP on the outside interface)

I need web traffic to go to the site hosted by 1and1.com (not going to host the web site on my box)

1) What DNS settings do I need to change? Do I change the MX record to point to my live IP address of the server's outside Nic?

2) What about the 'A record' ...do I need to change that also?

3) I created a sub domain called 'mail.mydomain.com' and would like to have the users be able to get to Outlook Web Access or Remote Web Workplace by punching that into their Internet Explorer address bar... what records do I need to change to make that happen?

Thx!

Oh, you don't need to create a subdomain called mail.mydomain.com, just an "A" record for mail.mydomain.com.

You would want to get into subdomains if your doing mx1.mail.mydomain.com, mx2.mail.mydomain.com, etc
