Title: Message

Sorry if this is not in any logical order!   1 GETUSERS does not return any alias information, only the true Active Directory name of the user.   2 The results you get from GETUSERS are to be expected.   LOCAL means that it has tried looking for an IMSUsers group in the local directory of the Email server, but this does not exist as your email box is a DC. NET means that it has found the records using the IMSUsers group in the AD on the DC.   3 All Alias information is stored in the registry. You say that you have checked the registry and it seems ok, but it obviously is not!   4 Have you checked that all copies of AD are in synch?   You say that you removed the services and reinstalled them, but that will still leave all the data in the registry. So you will need uninstall the services, delete the registry data and then reinstall the services and restore the registry data. This will probably be best done manually via the EMWAC control panel and not by saving and restoring the registry data, as it probably corrupt.   David       From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of John Martoccio Sent: 29 October 2006 20:10 To: IMSusers@rockliffe.com Subject: Something happened to my Aliases...   DID ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEAS ABOUT THIS ?   -----Original Message----- Sent: Wednesday, October 11, 2006 9:35 PM Subject: Something happened to my Aliases... I am hoping that this list is still working…. Today I ran the GETUSERS, and noticed that none of my aliases are working anymore ! I ran the EMWAC Settings control panel, and the APPLY button is grayed-out, and won't appear after a change either… I tried removing and reinstalling all of the services, but that didn't work, and I examined the registry and that seems to be okay too.         I noticed when I ran the GETUSERS.EXE program that the dialog box that pops up says:                         Result:                         Local:  ERROR_NO_SUCH_ALIAS                         Net:      ERR_SUCCESS         and then it lists all the USERS that are in my IMSusers group in my Active Directory. I am running with Active Directory (Email box = W2K, Web box = W2K3, both are Domain Controllers). I have added a check in each of the IMS message services for "Interact with desktop".   Any ideas ?   Sincerely, John Martoccio [EMAIL PROTECTED]
