<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
We have an Exchange 2007 hosted environment configured using the following Microsoft technet article:<br />
<br />
<a href="http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/bb936719.aspx" rel="ugc">http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/bb936719.aspx</a><br />
<br />
Basically there are mutilpe GALs with permissions set to restrict access per user to only their company's specific GAL.<br />
<br />
We then attempted to setup a BES Professional Express server to allow for blackberry configurations but have encountered a problem because the BES server adds accounts by doing a GAL lookup and we do not have a single GAL that contains all users.<br />
<br />
So the question is how to have restricted access to a GAL or GALs but still have a single GAL containing all acocunts for the besadmin account to add users. &nbsp;It's my understanding that you cannot have one account in more that a single GAL, if that's not true how is this accomplished? &nbsp;Does anyone know how BES determines which GAL it uses for lookups? &nbsp;If it is true that you cannot have an account in multiple GALs has anyone else come up with a solution to this problem?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance!<br />
