A troll ate the first post - Was Help Help,I'm too dense to figure this out
Or maybe it was a filter... This is a weird problem. I hope I have described it well enough for it to make sense... This site had 3 servers: Server 1 - NT4 SP6A Echange 5.5 SP4 - set to be retired Server 2 - 2000 SP3 Echange 5.5 SP4 - Migrated from another domain using Move Server Wizard. No Public Folder Store. Server 3 - 2000 SP3 Echange 5.5 SP4 Rehomed PF's on server 1 to server 3 Stopped the services on server 1 for serveral days then removed it according to KB article - 152959 (removing first server..) Server still connected to the network. Everyone was happy and could access the PF's they needed until we took server1 offline. People on server 2 started having Outlook hang on starting. Plugged the server back in without Exchange services running - problem dissapears. Makes no sense, so I have re-checked that I removed Server 1 correctly from the org and checked the home server and replica information on the PF's that were rehomed. Next, created a Public Information Store on Server 2 and added replicas of the PF's that were rehomed to server 3 - Should not be necessary, but nothing was making sense. Same problem still. We have monitored the connections coming into server 1 and have determined that when the clients on Server 2 start Outlook their machines do try to connect to server 1 Thanks for any help.

Build them new Outlook profiles (or dig in the current profile definitions in the registry, find references to the old server and replace with new server). For some reason Outlook did not automatically switch to using the new server. I have see this happen before. I don't know why it does that.

Does the mailbox store on server 2 point to 3 for public folders? Sometimes when I've seen this, we've had to refresh the profile. Change the last letter of the person's name or servername to the same letter then click Check Names. Ed --- Jasa, Ken [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Or maybe it was a filter... This is a weird problem.
