OK - That makes sense, but I'm not sure how to rename the mailbox on the Exch55 server without affecting the Exch2003 server. For example: I move a mailbox using the Exch2003 System Manager and the email box (user) is moved from Exch55 to Exch2003. The ADC is performing 2-way replication, so...

For testing purposes, I've setup an offline LAN. Our production LAN is working well with Active Directory, and I'd like to "copy" the working AD, complete with user accounts and original SID's, to my offline LAN. In addition, I'd like to keep these in synch every 2 weeks or so to keep...

On my test network, I have AD running and have gone through the entire deployment per Microsoft's guides. I have Exchange 5.5 running on one box (Windows 2000 Server), and have Exchange 2003 Enterprise Server running on another box (Windows 2003 Server). I've installed the Active Directory...

Yep - I was too close and missed the obvious. Thanks!

I've installed a new Exchange 5.5 server for offline use, and circular logging is on by default. Documentation indicates to select File Properties when I select Configuration/Servers/myServerName, but I can't recall how to turn on the Advanced tab. Can someone help??

To learn Exchange 2003 Server, I've setup a test lab. Have Exchange 2003 installed and running, and was working fine. Unfortunately, while testing Administrative Groups, I accidentally removed inherited permissions. This now prevents access to my Exchange 2003 objects in Exchange System Manager...

After digging into the Microsoft archives, I've found an answer to tihs issue. The Exchange 5.5 Server has to force an update to the Global Address List, and the default schedule is set to 4 times a day. Force an update by going into the Exchange 5.5 Admin program, Configuration container, and...

Al - Are any of your clients running Outlook 2003? We recently went through an issue with the Exchange 5.5 Information Store crashing due to a problem with rules. See Q829418 for more information. There's a hotfix out for this which we applied immediately and solved the problem...

We're currently running an Exchange 5.5 Server w/SP4 installed on Windows 2000 Server. The new Outlook 2003 client has been installed on about 20 client computers, and the new Exchange Cache Mode has been turned on, mainly for SPAM filterning issues. The problem is that when an update is made...

Appreciate the detailed explanation. I have gone through all the steps you indicated, and did get the Active Directory Connector installed. Tested the replication between Exchange 5.5 and AD and watched as it worked great. The only problem I did have was with another site's name display - it...

I'm installing Exchange 2003 onto a Windows 2003 Server. I'm Joining to an existing Exchange 5.5 server, and during setup am getting the following error: "Setup failed while installing sub-component Site Replication Service with error code 0xC0070002". Anyone have any pointers to...

Appreciate the feedback - will take a look at what they have.

Does anyone know a way to keep certain users from creating a local .PST file? Our company wants a certain group of users (finance) to always have their email stored on Exchange, so nightly tape backups will always archive ALL their email. Most users have a local .PST file where they can have...

I'm running an Exchange 5.5 Server, SP4, and have a Storage Area Network (SAN) setup for my Logs and Stores. Exchange is installed on the internal *mirrored* SCSI drives O/S partition (C:) in the \exchsrvr folder. Running Windows 2000 Server w/SP3. I've recently had a problem with the Internet...

You might want to check out the Auto-Protect section of the NAV for Exchange that you're using. If you have MAPI/VAPI combination on, this can really cause slowdowns and/or problems moving emails from folder to folder. I've also had problems with VAPI only mode, so am now just using "MAPI...
