Have you tried Q177763 or Q152960? These are two of the four Knowledge Base search results I got when searching for "rebuild offline address book".

I thought it might be that mail enable for OAB was the same as the public folders mail enable. Thanks for the info. The PSS call just looks unavoidable, in a fair world maybe Microsoft would pay us for time spent on glithces and we'd pay them for new features and software. Recently paid $245 to fix a glitch with IIS lockdown tool which got installed because of IIS vulnerabilities in the first place. Anyone smell a fish taco? I've been happy giving them my credit card info for Conferencing server, front end backend help and general configuration questions but I hate paying for there mistakes. I've been doing this long enough to not really care but still worth a vent every now and again.

We also ensured that the Offline Address List folder and the OAB Version 2 folder was replicated to the Ags/Sites that were going to have OST users. The option to mail enable will be there for any public/system folder so I wouldn't get concerned about that - I see it as well. Mark -----Original Message----- From: tech [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 28 November 2001 18:41 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: OST synchronizing problems Mark, the log says the OAB did not synchronize which is the saem as the article on technet. No new Organizational forms have been created. I went to the OAB and I have the option to mail enable the OAB. This should be the same as install but should I have the option to mail enable or should it already be done? The default permissions for the OAB are set to editor which should have the rights. Again this should not have changed from install and I have not migrated from 5.5 so no forms to come over, this was a clean install that had been running OST without any problems until last week. I am sole admin for it so I can't imagine anyone has done anything, the only change was that we upgraded our backup exec to 2000. 07:50:12 Synchronizing Mailbox 'Robert Keyte' 07:50:12 Synchronizing Hierarchy 07:50:12 Synchronizing Favorites 07:50:12 Synchronizing Folder 'Inbox' 07:50:12 Synchronizing Folder 'Large Messages' 07:50:12 Synchronizing Folder 'MS Stuff' 07:50:12 Synchronizing Folder 'nboyd' 07:50:12 Synchronizing Folder 'Sys_admin' 07:50:12 Synchronizing Folder 'upgrade' 07:50:12 Synchronizing Folder 'v-mail' 07:50:12 Synchronizing Views 07:50:12 Done 07:50:13 Microsoft Exchange offline address book 07:50:13 0X8004010F -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Mark Harford Sent: Wednesday, November 28, 2001 3:22 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: OST synchronizing problems What does the synchronisation log say (you'll find this in the users deleted items or their dumpster if they clear out deleted items)? Also have you or any other Exchange admins for other Admin Groups made any changes to the Organizational Forms set up recently? You should check what permissions have been set on them. IIRC the default ought to be reviewer.

Gurus of the Exchange world. I am having a problem with all our Outlook 2002 laptops. We set up our external laptops with Outlook 2002, using the OST. When they hit send and receive they get the error; "Task 'Microsoft Exchange Server' reported error (0x8004010F) : 'The operation failed. An object could not be found.' " If I disable the offline use the error does not come up but we need to use offline store for external users. I've searched my available resources and come up with the articles below. The articles do not suggest a fix is available, has anyone else experienced this and know of a fix? The second article suggests that this is a problem with the Offline address list being uninstalled from the Exchange Server? I think this will be a PSS call but if someone has already made that call I'd appreciate the info. http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q289/9/69.ASP http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q273/3/64.ASP Thanks Nathan _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This e-mail, and any attachment, is confidential.
