You re-homed the Free/Busy and Offline Address Book system folders
before killing the original Exchange server, right?

figure this out"

Or maybe it was a filter...
 

This is a weird problem. I hope I have described it well enough for it
to make sense...

This site had 3 servers:

Server 1 - NT4 SP6A Echange 5.5 SP4 - set to be retired Server 2 - 2000
SP3 Echange 5.5 SP4 - Migrated from another domain using Move Server
Wizard. No Public Folder Store.
Server 3 - 2000 SP3 Echange 5.5 SP4

Rehomed PF's on server 1 to server 3

Stopped the services on server 1 for serveral days then removed it
according to KB article - 152959 (removing first server..) Server still
connected to the network.

Everyone was happy and could access the PF's they needed until we took
server1 offline. People on server 2 started having Outlook hang on
starting. Plugged the server back in without Exchange services running -
problem dissapears.

Makes no sense, so I have re-checked that I removed Server 1 correctly
from the org and checked the home server and replica information on the
PF's that were rehomed.

Next, created a Public Information Store on Server 2 and added replicas
of the PF's that were rehomed to server 3 - Should not be necessary, but
nothing was making sense. Same problem still.

We have monitored the connections coming into server 1 and have
determined that when the clients on Server 2 start Outlook their
machines  do try to connect to server 1


Thanks for any help.
