Could this be the cause of all issues? Once again, thanks Stewart. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 23, 2004 1:45 PM To: Vadim Abramov Subject: RE: Adding Users You really shouldn't run Exchange on a DC (thats generally regarded as a rule of thumb). The steps I mentioned should only affect exchange. When I say completely uninstall the servers, I only mean the exchange install - do not rebuild the whole OS. It should not affect the DC's. Feel free to post my suggestions onto the main group and see what the guru's think of it - I may be completely wrong - certainly wouldn't be the first time :-) Cheers, Stewart. ---- original message ---- >Stewart, > >That is the best response I have gotten to this problem in the three >weeks I have been trying to resolve it.
