I was reading through the Dell document on Exchange 2007 features and I read something that caught my eye.

TheClientAccess role is required in the sameActiveDirectory (AD) sitewhere aMailboxroleisdeployed.TheHubTransportroleandClientAccessrolesarerequiredonevery
AD sitewithin the organization.

The last line in particular.

Does that mean, if I have 5 seperate sites, I need a Exchange 2007 server running the hub and client roles in those sites? Im in San Diego and have sites near Las Vegas and Los Angeles...I need to put a server in those locations?

Just looking for some clarification.

THanks.
