    I have a client that wants to install/run Exchange 2013 and SharePoint 2013 together on a Server 2012 base OS. Is this possible and can the server also be the domain controller?

    They have been told by Dell sales reps that these will all work on one server.

    Skeptical.

    Oh, and yes, I now see what the Dell rep mean... by hyper-v. They just forget to tell you that you need a lot more licence, like 4 windows 2012 license or an enterprise license.

    You need an AD for Hyper-V to work, and it's agaisnt the bestpractice to install your AD into the Hyper-V host.. so for that shot I would tell you better the SBS way or you would need two physical's server.

    Thanks

    I know it isn't recommended from the perspective of domain controller but ask them here about other technologies.

    Hi

    Only way I think is a Small Business Server, else like Dave told it's really against the bestpractice. (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg508696.aspx for the feature of SBS 2011)

    Be warned it's sharepoint foundation, I does not know what is the differance between it and "sharepoint"

    Thank
