Ironic indeed !

Got tasked with a weird client site ... They had Exchange 2000, recently upgraded domain to 2003r2 and added Exchange 2003 ... while preparing to remove original Exchange 2000 server, I see in the Exchange System Manager one other Exchange server, but that server no longer exists. In about 6 months I've never heard of that server for email, and their tech basically ripped it off the wire and got rid of the hardware. I ran the ntdsutil metadata cleanup to remove it from the domain controllers in AD, but still can't see how to remove it from Exchange... any tips or ideas here ? thanks Erik Goldoff ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
