I do have a basic question... How many users will be in this new, remote location? Will the traffic be so vast, that 1GbE link will not be enough, or are you using two servers for reliability?
Yeah, I guess I should have mentioned this... Each location is an entire floor of a 6 story building. The remote location has the capacity for about 60 users, the new location about 100. We only allow IMAP access to email, so if everyone is using email at the same time, that would be a lot of traffic over a single Gb link I think...
The simpler the configuration, it is almost always the better. Maybe you can stay with one server in yours primary location?
I had considered this, but like I said, this is not purely for performance - I'd also like to get redundancy in the deal (up until now, we haven't had any - admittedly - knock on wood - we haven't needed it, but I'd still like to implement it).
