Domain Local / Global / Mail Enabled Groups


Recommended Posts

I am in the process of setting up a new network and am having some

difficulty understanding why I would want to set up the recommended

"Global -> Local -> Permissions" relationship. In my existing network I use

only local groups (most of which are mail enabled) and administration is

easy.

 

It seems to me that setting up three separate groups (e.g. "DG_Sales"

distribution list, a "GG_Sales" group and a "DL_Sales" group) would create

an administrative headache compared to the benefits it offers?

 

What do most people do here?

 

Thanks

steve

RE: Domain Local / Global / Mail Enabled Groups

 

A lot of your group strategy will depend on your environment and your AD

structure as different types of groups have different scopes in AD. Do you

use AD at all? If so how many domains do you have? How many forrests?

 

Let me know that and then I can give you some more valuable info.
