The red x's: that's normal. The www service starts before the Exchange IS does. Restart the w3svc service if it bothers you, but it's normal. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;Q259373
If it really annoys you, you can add a DependOnService line for MSExchangeIS to HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\W3SVC. You don't have an M: drive in your files structure, IIRC, because one of the service packs has now hidden it by default. You can redirect to /exchange by editing the default website in IIS Admin. Home Directories page, click "a redirection to a URL" and type http://server.domain.com/exchange. > -----Original Message----- > From: Pennell, Ronald B.
