Can you install Exchange 2007 System manage on a Domain Controller

Hi

Can you install the Exchange Management tools on a different server other than your Exchange server?

My exchange server runs very slow when logged onto the console, so i would like to move them off, ideally i would like to put it on my Domain controller, then when setting up new users i can use AD and ExchManager in the same RDP console.

Any advice greatly recieved on this.

Regards

yes use your exchange setup cd's, go to install the server and do a custom install only select the tools and install. you can install them on ur PC too.

Hi,
Yes you can go ahead and install the Exchange Management Tools on Windows XP (ie 32bit) also. Here you go ::: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=6be38633-7248-4532-929b-76e9c677e802&displaylang=en

Ok, any advice on installing it on a 64-bit Domain Controller?
I would avoid installing it there.
Infact we would also not login to DC everytime for Mmanaging it I would use AD  Mgmt tools as a best practize
Thanks
is it possibel you could give some reasons?

Ie: Configuration issues, potential corruption, disk  or network I/O?
