DNS/ Exchange two seperate forests
Guys,
I have two different environments/Active Directory forests which use exchange 2007/2010 and now I want to introduce them to each other without a trust. I would like to be able to send email on two different environments as if they are on the internet but using an internal network. I read where I could do this through DNS but not sure how to implement this on an internal network. My internal network have several subnets.
This is used for one forest
192.168.75.x
192.168.76.x
192.168.77.x
This is used for one forest
10.10.1.x
10.10.2.x
How do I setup DNS or what is the different options I have available for making these two enivronments talk to each other as if they are on the internet. I know I need to also build MX records. Sorry I am somewhat a newbie on this and any help would be appreciative, thanks
I have all the exchange roles and also a edge transport server installed.
