Nour, I should not do it, in the manuals of Exchange 2007 there's also a mark that you shouldn't place Exchange 2007 on a DC. SQL Server is a very resourse consuming product which needs an apart server. So the last one Sharepoint should be installed on a dedicated machine also. So tell your boss he has to buy some extra servers. Johan

If they want everything on one computer let them know there could be performance and security issues.
