Hello,

I was wondering if you know if there are any problems with
moving the default groups in AD out of the Users OU?
Groups like Domain Admins, Schema Admins, Exchange Admins
etc. I know that you CAN do this, but are there any issues
such as dcpromo no longer works, you can't uninstall
exchange, etc. Any info on this would be appreciated.
Please don't ask me why I want to do this.

Thank you,
Mark
 
Mark-

I always leave the three Exchange groups in Users, as Exchange does look for
stuff here. You could probably move them, but, in the past I've had some
difficulty. Other than that, you're free to move things around whereever you
want.
