Okay, sorry for that. Short: 2 domains, 1 forest. On domainA I have the exchange server 2000. (2-way transitive)Trust is made, domainprep executed on domainB where users have to use the exchange server in domainA. I create a new user on the mail server from domainA where the exchange system manager is installed. I connect to the DC from domainB and create a new user. When I try to choose exchange features (after right click on the new user) I get no new screen asking me to create a mailbox. Also, asking for the properties of a new user in domainB, asked through serverA in domainA, gives me no possibilities to create a mailbox for that user. Maybe it's a problem with permissions? Do users on domainB need rights in domainA? And what rights? Do the creator af a new mailbox need any special rights. I make users with the administrator account (full enterprise permissions).
I have no idea...

I did use setup.exe /domainprep on domB. But how can I mail enable the users from domB? (advanced features are on). When I look at the properties of a user from domB I don't have those exchange features on a tab like in domA. I'm also searching if I have to give permission on the domA (on the mail server) for users of domB? And when do I have to use a mail exchanger host in the dns and when not? Many thanks for the usefull informaton. _________________________________________________________________ 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] _________________________________________________________________ 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]
