Selecting the DC which is a global catalog by right clicking on the domain name in ADUC and choosing "Connect to Domain Controller..."
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Roger Seielstad Sent: Thursday, May 02, 2002 7:10 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Exchange System Manager and WINS How are you choosing what DC or Exchange server to connect to? If you are explicitly connecting to a server, are you using the host name or the FQDN? I'm guessing that you're just using the hostname (or NetBIOS name). Try using FQDN and seeing if that fixes it. Alternately, fix the domain suffix search order on your machine to include all necessary domains ------------------------------------------------------ Roger D.
