Outlook by default will use the hosts file first, then the DNS Server, followed by NetBIOS Cache, WINS server, then Broadcast and lastly the LMHOSTS file. -- unless you have mucked with the binding order.

Remote users have Outlook 2002 on W2k Professional laptops and Alcatel PERMIT/Client. These users connect via dial-up, they can access their mailboxes and send/receive no problem. When they use LinkSys router and DSL, they can access our network, the internet and other network resources EXCEPT for their mailboxes on the E2k server. Synchronization failure messages are related to "network problems preventing access to the Exchange server" or the RPC message box "retrieving data from Exchange server". These eventually fail and nothing is exchanged between the client and their server mailbox. Has anyone seen this? If so, what tips would you suggest? Thanks very much. -Juancho _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:leave-exchange@;ls.swynk.com 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:leave-exchange@;ls.swynk.com Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The information contained in this email message is privileged and confidential information intended only for the use of the individual or entity to whom it is addressed.
