For Martin & anyone else Note: I originally wrote this for Outlook 8.2, but I don't believe thing have changed that much Instructions for enabling the Apple Macintosh - Outlook 8.2 client for use with Exchange services. Install Outlook 8.2 for Macintosh Using a preferences modification utility e.g. ResEdit (available from http://www.emunix.emich.edu/~zirk/programs.html ) Select Open \ file: Desktop\Macintosh HD\System Folder\Preferences\Exchange Preferences After the Exchange Preferences box has opened Double click on - STR# Double click on - "Exchange Provider" Single click inside the top string box (1) and change the last character from a 1 to a 0 (zero) i.e. the box should be changed from Resolve_NetBIOS_Names_Last=1 to Resolve_NetBIOS_Names_Last=0 After making the change, select file \ save from the top command line, and then close ResEdit. Additional to above will be the creation of a Hosts file, which needs to be created in the Preferences Folder, i.e.: Desktop\Macintosh HD\System Folder\Preferences\Hosts This is a simple text file and must contain the following two lines "Your Server NETBIOS Name" CNAME "Your Server FQDN" "Your Server FQDN" A "Your server IP address" Yours, Julian Stone Exchange 2000 Consultant Netstore - Europe's Leading Application Service Provider Tel: +44 (0) 1344 444349 Mobile: +44 (0) 7710 122 312 Fax: +44 (0) 207 681 1238 Email: <<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>> LOCATION: <<http://www.netstore.net/contact/location.htm>> HomePage: <<http://www.netstore.net/>> -----Original Message----- From: Martin Blackstone [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 13 February 2002 13:43 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Exchange 5.5. & Mac !!!!

You need to add an entry to the "Mac" equivalent of the 'hosts' file. Some time ago I wrote a procedure for doing this, if you want a copy, contact me off list Yours, Julian Stone -----Original Message----- From: Paul Love [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 13 February 2002 09:56 am To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Exchange 5.5. & Mac !!!! Yes its true some pooor soul wishes to use his Mac laptop to access his exchnage mail ! i did try and talk him out of it but well anyway, installed outlook for Mac and this went lovely, set the options to check the name which it does lovely, as long as we use the ip address of the mail server and not the wins/dns. but then when he tries to open outlook it complains the mail server is unavailable ? i presume its because it cant find the wins/dns name. But ok you say change it to the ip address, well we do that but outlook keeps resetting it to the dns/wins name. Any advice, and i mean any advice even if its shoot him.... gratefully received Yours desperately Paul _________________________________________________________________ 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 attachments may be confidential and/or legally privileged.
