Exchange 2007 and DirectAccess
So after a week of back and forth I finally have DirectAccess up and running in our environment. We are in the phase of testing out applications and how they function with DA on Windows 7 Ent machines. The next step is email. Is there anything special to get email functional since the remote client will now have a foot in the domain and out of the domain? I noticed most other servers registered a 6to4 address in DNS automatically. The Exchange servers are showing 6to4 addresses but haven't seemed to register them. We have a clustered CCR config: 1 HUB Server, 2 MBX servers. The serversare Windows 2008 SP2. I would appreciate any thoughts.Thanks!

... just another note ... Exchange seems to work fine since it has Outlook Anywhere configured. Is this the way it should be or should it take advantage of the tunnel created for DirectAccess?

I appreciate the response. The question was posed to see if anyone from a pure Exchange point of view has done this yet and what their experience is. I will also post in the Windows Server forum. Thanks again.
