Exchange 2007 and Multiple Global Address Lists

Hello All

I am trying to set up a hosted Exchange 2007 environment where I can
run multiple orgs on one exchange server hiding one from the other. I
have pretty much acheived what I want to so far but I am stuck now!

I am trying to configure Exchange to provide the relevant global and
offline address list to the user based on the comany they belong to
and hide all the others. I have created a new OAL for each company
which filters based upon company name and have also created a new
Global Address List using the Power Shell for each organization using
the cmdlet below:

New-GlobalAddressList -Name "Contoso GAL" -IncludedRecipients
MailboxUsers -ConditionalCompany Contoso

It was my understanding from the above command that a global address
list would be created and mailbox users belonging to Contoso would be
added. After this was created and updated I was expecting the client
to utilise this Global Address List, however it doesn't appear to be
working like and I can see everyone from the client. I am basically
seeing the default global address list.

Is there a command I can use to tell the client to utilise this new
global address list?

TIA

You can not use the global address list at all.

You can not use the global address list at all. If you are going to self
host you need to *totally* segment your address lists. You can not try to
split up one address list for two groups as this will not work.

You can have only one Default Global Address List, multiple address lists
and multiple OAB's.

You also need to change the OAB that is associated with the mailbox store so
your users download that OAB and not the default, which is the default :)

My Company is doing the same thing. I found a really good tutorial on msexchange.org. Basicly though you have to use ADSI Edit, which is unsupported by M$, and if you use it incorrectly you can screw up your Active Directory. You have to limit permissions to the address lists you create with ADSI Edit. The Tutorial on msexchange.org for Hosted Exchange gives really good intructions on how to do this.



Support given as is, YMMV, all risk is on you.

Well, Support IS NOT GIVEN for any customers at MS for Address List

a requirement."
