This problem you pose, screams RPC issue, but you claim that there isn't a router between you and the exchange server? You claim that you can ping your exchange server via its FQDN. Like Darren York said, did you try Q274668? I still can't get past RPC......What version OS are your clients? I seen this happen on a NT 4.0 client when the RPC configuration service was removed. How about "Client for Microsoft Networks"?
