We are running Windows 2003 Active Directory consisting of
a single forest, single Domain, with Exchange 2003 as the
messaging system. I have installed CRM with Adventure
Works sample database and now want to install a second
instance of CRM. Thought I'd try registering the product
key on back of Welcome Kit CRM disk to get license key and
then install CRM using our company name and the licence
key. Will this work and at present I log in to
http://crm01 to see application, so after second install
how will I tell Int Explorer to go to the new install?

You can't install multiple instances on CRM On the same app/web server. You
will need a seperate server.

Thks, I'll use another server. Is it OK to have the
Single Domain?

It can work, but you may run into some issues depending on how you set it up.
It's technically not supported though.

Thks greatly for your, I want to install in same domain
and last time a OU was created, so assume a new OU will
be created for this instance, also will point it to a new
CRM server, have read from previous posts "This would
also confuse the
Exchange router as it wouldn't easily know which crm
instance to send
an inbound email to", my question is how can I get around
this?

That's one of the problems you will face. In theory, you should be able to
install the router and point it to both CRM servers. It will then send each
email to all registered servers. This may lead to numerous error msgs in the
event log as it will log a message when it can't find the associated record for
the GUID in the subject (which will happen on at least 1 of the servers for each
msg).
