15:47:30 PDT
Question: Steve just another lead-on question from the OU's question just now. Would it be OK to
DirSync all the relevant OU's with users, and ONLY assign licenses to the certain users who require it in
365? This of course means my 365 will be populated with many users not actually using 365. Would you
say this is OK, or would it be best to just throw the relevant users into a 365 OU? I'm leaning towards the
OU bit but would like to hear from you.
Answer: yes. We support many environments such as this. A lot of users, only some with cloud services.
It's alright and hurts nothing.
16:10:15 PDT
Question: I am trying to decide if there is any reason to consider SBS2011 if we are going to office365?
Answer: If you need local security management and printer management services you need to have
some kind of a server onsite. I'd suggest a 2012 standard.
Q&A Log
16:12:56 PDT
Question: Will we get the Q&A emailed to us?

Answer: Yes you will get a link to the q & a emailed to you
16:13:11 PDT
Question: If I have 10 users can the be E3 users?

Answer: Sure thing. You can have 1 E3 user.
16:15:18 PDT
Question: Exchange question: In our environment we sent up alternate "send as" accounts where the
user can send from a different address... and any emails they receive at that address would go in to their
normal user mailbox like an alias. Basically it's a security group that a user has rights to send from
without needing to log in to a separate mailbox. Is this still something we can do with Exchange Online?
They will need to be able to click on the from address field in their Outlook and select the alternate
address to send from.
Answer: They sure can. You can assign send as permissions.
16:15:48 PDT
Question: We have a client that is going to have Windows Server 2012 STD. and Moving to Office 365
from Exchange 2003. Going to have 15 AD Users and 120 Mailboxes. How do we not have Extra AD
Users and Just have Mailboxes
Answer: The system will create the AD users as cloud identities. If they are just shared mailboxes you
can make them shared mailboxes, which don't require a license, but they have some limited
functionality. we will cover this in module 6
16:16:09 PDT
Question: if a user has xp and 365 on thier machine now and its working will it stop authnticating whne
microsoft stops xp support
Answer: It will still authenticate but won't be supported.

Answer: 9am PDT (12pm EST)
16:17:43 PDT
Question: Can I set up smart card logon for federated user to connect to exchange online mailbox via
outlook anywhere in exchange hybrid configuration?
Answer: Yes with ADFS
16:18:40 PDT
Question: Most of our clients already have office product on their desktop and are not looking to
upgrade, only migrate to hosted Email. Any reason to consider anything else other than E1
Answer: You could actually just do an Exchange only plan if you aren't going to use Lync or SharePoint
16:20:03 PDT
Question: We have a multi forest environment... where users on the second domain currently have
linked mailboxes on our exchange 2010 server.... when we migrate to Exchange Online how will it
migrate those mailboxes?
Answer: They will be migrated and you will assign whatever domain(s) you validate to them as email
domains and you will assign delegated permissions just like you have currently.
16:21:45 PDT
Question: We have FOPE? Is it posible for you to cover FOPE to EOP migration.?
Answer: We will talk abou this tomorrow.
