You say that you have no problems running w/ exchange? I seem to recall that the research I did indicated that running with Exchange is a bad idea. Maybe it was because our Exchange is part of SBS (and I think BES hates DCs). Any insight you might have into that would be awesome.
It’s explicitly stated that co-existence on Exchange servers is supported. I’ve tested it and it works fine (32bit or 64 bit, another nice improvement from previous versions of BES).

It also runs fine on a domain controller - the only issue there is that your BES service account needs to be a domain admin account, which RIM doesn’t want you to do following the principle of least privilege. You could probably fine tune the user rights assignments for the BES admin account via the domain controller group policy, but I don’t think that much extra effort is really warranted for the exposure that BES represents (which is basically none)
