Your outside address needs to be NAT'd to your Exchange server inside address. The ports you probably should NAT are 80 (http), 443 (SSL) & 25 (SMTP).

We’re running an MS Access application in Windows 2000 on a machine that’s limited to 256 colors. (It's a Windows 2000-based Citrix MF1.8 server and is limited to 256 colors without purchasing an upgrade.) When Windows is set to 256 colors, Access seems able to display only about 40 colors. A...

Can I ask why you want them to authenticate with a specific DC? Are they authenticating with a DC across a slow link instead?

When I originally installed my Citrix server it was a domain controller on a domain that was used only for Citrix. A few years later I rolled out a separate domain across my company. I then demoted my Citrix server and joined it as a member server to my new domain. No problems whatsoever.

Windows 2000 with Metaframe 1.8 Feature Release 1 will do true color. (And I suspect Metaframe XP on W2K will do the same, probably with a Feature Release.) I've been using Citrix (starting with Winframe) for five or six years. I highly recommend the product for just the sort of applications...

What kind of troubleshooting have you done? From a command prompt try pinging the IP address. If that works try pinging the name.

Within each Person document in your Address Book under the Mail tab set "Format Preference for Incoming Mail" to "No Preference."

The short version is you set the length when you create IDs. Other than recertifying, I'm not sure if there is another way.

I can post a condensed version of my logon script. Anyone have recommendations on where I should to that? It's entirely too long to attempt to post within this thread. If I could attach it somewhere, that would be great.

If I remember correctly you need to use "load fixup ..." from the Domino console or "nfixup ..." from the OS command prompt.

I've configured my logoff script to grab those essential Notes files, zip them and dump them on the network at every logoff/shutdown. Works well for us. Files I backup: notes.ini, names.nsf, *.id, desktop5.dsk, bookmarks.nsf & user.dic.

I'm not clear on what you meant by this sentence, "I was thinking I could install Win2K server, join our office domain on one of them and then everyone could log into it." In any case, I don't see any reason why you couldn't create a second domain controller to be used at your...

I won't say no, but I suspect there's not. Though your usernames may be identical on both domains, they are absolutely unique to each domain. With that in mind it doesn't seem possible that you could migrate rights between unique users.

My first guess is that you have a DNS problem. Go to a command prompt on your workstation and type "ipconfig /all". The primary DNS server entry should be your domain controller. If not, that may be your problem. Your domain controller should act as your DHCP server & DNS server...

Matt - From what I can tell you are attempting to address a relatively straightforward problem with a complex solution. With the details you've provided your best long-term solution (as suggested by others) is to use a router as your Internet gateway for all systems (including your mail...
