Possible fix found -
According to PSS and some tests we ran, my Exchange server is not
listening on canc_ip_tcp which is required for MAC connectivity. He has
provided my a hot fix to solve it Q297534 unfortunately he provided me a bum
link to download the fix. So till Monday we wait. No big deal,
luckily the MAC users are off this weekend.
If
anyone wants more details let me know.
My
experience was the same as Jons. I have one Mac G4 that gets configured via
DHCP, all I added was the Exchange Server name, the mailbox name and the user
info. I have had fewer problems with the Mac than my Wintel
machines.

I regularly
connect to the campus Exchange server from home using my personal iMac. It
is running OS X and Outlook 2001 (running in Classic mode). When I set this
up for the very first time, I just installed Outlook 2001 and told it my
mailbox name. It simply worked like it was supposed to work. I've also used
Outlook 2001 on the iMac here in the office that is running Mac OS 9. It too
connected just like you'd expect it to - on the first
try.

That was cold... yet on target... But words

Keith -
Thanks - sorry if I sounded frustrated - two very vocal users
and I guess ignorance breeds contempt as far as MACs go for me.
Using Outlook 2001 - when I resolve the name I start with IP
and Alias and resolve to Computer Name and User
name.
Static IP address even on the same subnet plugged into the same
switch as the exchange server.
Not sure about the domain in the Additional Search Domains will
check that first thing in the morning. Already have the ticket
open with PSS - boss didn't care - we will just get in the queue in
the morning if this doesn't resolve it.
Thanks for the advice!
Jim,
Did you get your problem resolved?
If not are you using Outlook 2001 or Outlook
8.x.
Also are you resolving the names using DNS. If so how are the
macs getting their IP address, DHCP or static?
On the Mac in the TCP/IP control panel do you have your
domain name in the Additional Search domains. If not it might help
having it there.
I hope this info helps. I started off as a mac person and
still consider them real computers. However I don't think they are
real network clients just like win9x isn't a real network
client.

Didn't want to stay on hold but they have an entire
MAC/Exchange group! I was way surprised.
they might say DUDE, you are SO not
supported for 245$
thanks - no dashes and using Outlook not the
MAC client and the names do resolve - just can't
open.
I am calling PSS - see if they have any
ideas.

Hello
-
Does anyone know of any
whitepapers or troubleshooting guides to help me resolve
connectivity issues with MAC's to my exchange
server?
We are running Exchange 5.5 sp5
on NT4 SP6a. The MACS are running OS9.1 and Outlook
for Mac and have a host file that points to the correct
server. They are able to ping the server I can
resolve their name and the server name using IP/Alias, but
they cannot open their information store. They get
Exchange Server offline error. I can open their
store from any real computer (notice I am NOT a MAC fan)
using their credentials and can use OWA from the
MACs.
Any
ideas?
