Hello,
I admit, I am very new to modifying GALs - but it's an important skill to
master, and I have to get this working.
Since the Default Global Address List is grabbing everything from Active
Directory that has an Exchange Address attached to it (which is not a
desired thing), I want to create a more controlled version of the GAL -
containing only entries that I dictate.
What I *thought* would be the easiest thing - is to create a Group (lets
call it "ABC Group") containing only the recipients that I want. So I
created ABC Group, and then I added all the Users and Contacts from Active
Directory. So now we have a new Universal Distribution Group called "ABC
Group" populated with 33 names that I selected from Active Directory.
I then went to the Exchange Server, and using Exchange System Manager, I
created another Global Address List under the "All Global Address Lists"
Tree Item. I called it "ABC Global". Then under Properties, I immediately
went to the Advanced Tab since I know precisely the criteria I am interested
in querying against.
I created,
Field: "User -> Group Membership" Condition: "Is (exactly)"
Value: "ABC Group"
And after doing this, hitting the 'Find Now' button, brings back no results.
I checked my typing for accuracy, among several other things. Is there
something I am missing? Is there a better way to tackle this task, versus
the way I am doing it?
Thanks in advance for any information offered on this subject.
Mike -
