Can 6.5 server address book replicate with a 8.5 address book?

Can a new 8.5 server coexist and replicate address books with an existing 6.5 server and have it such that that the 6.5 server address book keeps its design and the 8.5 server address book keeps it’s design? I’m try to plan an upgrade.

Thank you.

Subject: yes

yes they can, altho you’d probably want to take steps to make sure your 6.5 server didn’t get design elements from your 8.5 server. we recently upgraded from 6.5 to 8.5 all all the nabs lived happily while we upgraded everything, altho they did get design elements from the newer server. wasn’t a problem for us tho

Thank you so much Sloane. Do you know how to prevent the 6.5 server from taking on the design elements from the 8.5 server when I add the 8.5 as a second server?

hi, did you ever get answer to your question ? I have similar scenario where I want to keep R8.5.x address book design isolated than rest of the domain servers address books.
