Have you or someone else been removing and/or blocking inheritance of the default permissions on your OUs? This can have the side-effect of preventing non-admins from seeing some GAL entries.
The rebuild may well stamp new SMTP addresses however you may find that existing modified ones stay there but are relegated to secondaries. I haven't tested this for a while so my memory is a bit hazy on exactly what happens, however if you take a directory export with csvde or ldifde before and after, you can compare and correct. regards Mark -----Original Message----- From: Varghese, Wilson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: 28 January 2003 03:35 Posted To: Exchange 55 list server Conversation: New accounts not showing up in GAL Subject: RE: New accounts not showing up in GAL Importance: High Thanks. I tried the update now but that didn't work. As for rebuild.. I'm a little concerned. Does this stamp all the user accounts with new SMTP addresses because we have made some custom entries and modified a couple to have slightly different smtp addresses then what was the default stamp. Would all these get undone?

If you find a better solution, please let me know.

I'm trying to track down why we are not seeing accounts in the GAL. I can't see any event errors on the exchange server or DCs pointing to replication issues.
