Figure 7.9 External DNS Lookups Installing the ADAM Component Since the Edge Transport server role uses ADAM directory service as the repository for the replicated confi guration and rec

DNS servers by taking Properties for the Edge Transport server object in the Result pane On the

Properties page, click the External DNS Lookups tab and specify the DNS server that should be

used for routing mail to other SMTP servers on the Internet (see Figure 7.9)

Installing the ADAM Component

Since the Edge Transport server role uses ADAM directory service as the repository for the replicated confi guration and recipient data, it should come as no surprise that you’ll need to install ADAM

before you can install the Edge Transport server role If you plan to install the Edge Transport server

role on a Windows 2003 R2 server, you can install the component via Add or Remove Programs |

Add/Remove Windows Components | Active Directory Services, where you need to tick

Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM) , as shown in Figure 7.10 Next, click OK twice.

Figure 7.10 Adding the ADAM Component

To install ADAM on a Windows 2003 server with SP1 or later will require downloading the

ADAM installation package by clicking Active Directory Application Mode in the Downloads section under the following link: www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/adam.

Installing NET Framework 2.0

and Windows PowerShell

As is the case with any other Exchange 2007 Server role, you also need to install both the NET

Framework 2.0 component as well as Windows PowerShell, which we showed you how to do in Chapter 3

Saying Goodbye to the Windows SMTP

and NNTP Protocol Stacks

As most of you might recall, Exchange Server 2000 and 2003 extended and made use of the Windows Server 2000 or 2003 SMTP and NNTP services and thus required you to install both the Windows

NNTP and the SMTP components (which both are part of IIS) prior to installing the Exchange Server product itself Since NNTP is one of the features that aren’t supported in Exchange Server 2007, you

need to make sure that this component isn’t installed on the server If it is, the Exchange Server 2007

readiness check will fail In addition, because Exchange Server 2007 no longer uses the Windows Server SMTP service but instead has its own, which has been written from the ground up in managed code,

you also need to make sure that the Windows Server SMTP component isn’t installed on the server

As with NNTP, the Exchange Server 2007 readiness check will fail if this component is found on the

server You might ask why the Exchange Product Group replaced the Windows SMTP component

with its own Well, by doing so, the Exchange Product Group has reduced the risks that are associated

with DoS attacks, eliminated the dependency on IIS, and reduced the work required to properly secure the server for deployment in the perimeter network (the DMZ or screened subnet)

Installing the Edge Transport Server Role

Now you can begin the actual installation of the Exchange 2007 Edge Transport server role As is the case with all the other Exchange Server 2007 roles, you install this role by performing the following steps:

1 Navigate to the Exchange Server 2007 source directory (DVD media or the network

share containing the Exchange Server 2007 binaries)

2 Double-click Setup.exe

3 When the Exchange Server 2007 setup splash screen appears, click Step 4: Install

Microsoft Exchange

SOME INDEPENDENT ADVICE

Although we’re using the Exchange Server 2007 Installation Wizard to install the

Edge Transport server role, you can, as we stated in Chapter 3, also install this server role in unattended mode To do so, you need to execute a command similar to the

following: Setup.exe /mode:Install /role: ET.

The MMC 3.0 component will only appear as installed if you’re installing

Exchange Server 2007 on a Windows Server 2003 R2 edition If you’re installing the

Edge Transport server role on a Windows 2003 server with SP1 or later applied,

you need to download and install MMC 3.0 manually

4 When the Exchange Server 2007 Installation Wizard has initialized, click Next.

5 Accept the End User License Agreement (EULA) and click Next.

6 You now have the option of enabling Error Reporting (which is recommended so that

the Exchange Product Group receives information about any issues you encounter; in the end this information will give us a better product) When you have decided whether you

want to enable error reporting or not, you can click Next.

7 Since you’re going to install the Edge Transport server role, you now need to choose

Custom Exchange Server Installation and then click Next (see Figure 7.11) This is

also the screen where you have the option of changing the path for the Exchange Server installation (in the bottom of the screen)

8 Tick Edge Transport Role (see Figure 7.12) and click Next.
