Hello, colleagues, and happy Saturday, I have a user who cannot attach to the Exchange 5.5 server (which is on Windows 2000). I've tried his setup, and at first, I was getting the message "Ambiguous alias." In checking the Exchange server, I noticed somebody had used his alias on two different mailboxes because the second mailbox was one of a person who has left the company, and he was her manager. So, I changed the offending alias back to what it was before, and waited overnight for things to work.
Well, they don't work. Now, I get the error on the IMAP client (Outlook Express in this case) "You do not have permission to log on." And searching the knowledge base isn't getting me anywhere. Security Event Log comes up with ID 681, and Error Code 3221225572, which Technet says means "The username doesn't exist." which is obviously not the case: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windows2000serv/maintain/mo nitor/logevnts.mspx Now, I can log onto the domain on any workstation with this user's credentials, so I know his username/password are fine. And, I can access my test mailbox on the Exchange server via IMAP just fine. But, this user is the director of marketing, and he's on the road, and it's essential he gets his mail. When he gets back, I'm going to get him on VPN. But now, he needs his IMAP connection to work. Any ideas, folks? -- Larry Wahlers Concordia Technologies The Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] direct office line: (314) 996-1876 _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/read/?forum=exchange To subscribe: http://e-newsletters.internet.com/discussionlists.html/ To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.
