Was the one that failed you "primary" active directory? This would be
the "first" machine in the domain. If so, you lost all your "global
catalogs" that contain the user names. This error is bypassed by having
multiple domain controllers that are global catalog servers.
There is a check box in the sites and services section to copy the
global catalogs. You also need copy the FSMO files to the second
machine. Refer to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/255504
If you do not have two global catalogs, I think you have to rebuild the
domain and recreate all the users.

Hi,
One of our two Active Directory servers failed last week. The second
is working OK.
Internal users can send send mail externally but not internally -
get "user not valid" messages. Outsiders are also getting "user not
valid" when they try to email us.
The line up is POP3s, SMTPDS, SMTPRCV ( latest beta), SCSM Filter, AVP
antivirus, checkmx and trashfinder.
RCV panel User Database tab is set to "check the NT database" with the
group name "IMS users"
The group exists in Active Directory and the group members are correct.
When I run Getusers to check the userlist I get "group not found"
errors for both local and net.
The incoming R log is full of 550 messages
The incoming D log lists all the aliases and lists from the EMWAC
IMS control panel; but not the users.
Everything was working OK until one AD server failed.
I have checked everything I can think of and restarted services and
servers; but still the same errors.
What next?
David
