For some reason when one of our DC's failed (the one with all the FSMO roles), our other DC did not accept incomming authentication request, directory lookups, or outlook clients logging into Exchange. I am trying to understand why this issue occurs when we have 2 dircetory servers and exchange is setup to use either of them. DNS is all setup correctly as well and resolves to both servers. I even checked the _ directories under the main DNS and manually verified that all SRV records are in place. Can anyone render an explanation for this?

RE: Active Directory/Exchange 2000 Failover Question
Hi There, Thank for the reply. Yes it is, but I think I found the answer and the solution. Its documented here: http://www.winnetmag.com/MicrosoftExchangeOutlook/Article/ArticleID/25332/MicrosoftExchangeOutlook_25332.html This did the trick nicely by allowing me to increase the DS auery intervals. I am also using NetIQ now to look at hung threads in the Netlogon service. Technically the server wasnt 'down' but in software failure. I am going to set NetIq to have a threshhold of so many dead threads and then restart the Netlogon service. This can also be accomplished with MOM as well.

Fair point. We initially used ldap filters in our CAs to populate particular OUs and as a result had to use a complex mixture of Primary and Secondary one-way CAs.

Being able to map them out to individual OU's is a nice feature, instead of just fire and forget. Been thinking about having a naming convention for CA's so that I don't forget what they did =) Did you map across from Exchange--AD/Windows first in the two-way CA's and then back again (i.e. default)... ? Regards Mylo -Original Message- From: Mark Harford [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 15 May 2002 09:43 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Active Directory Connectors Fair point. We initially used ldap filters in our CAs to populate particular OUs and as a result had to use a complex mixture of Primary and Secondary one-way CAs. I've now reduced them to non-filtered two-way CAs now that the initial bulk of replication has all happened; largely for ease of support by my colleagues and future exchange/AD admins here. The most useful thing I found was to have a large whiteboard next to my desk with a diagram of all the CAs! This ensured I didn't set up duplicate paths and that all recipients would get replicated.

In addition to your comment concerning separate CA's, I'd also add that mapping sites/recipients across to OU's on a one-to-one basis CA wise can be beneficial, particularly if you're dealing with a large number of foreign recipients within the 5.5 org.

RE: Active Directory
1) You'll need ESM installed on the second DC to view the Exchange Attributes in ADUC. 2) prior to running the upgrade, could you see the 55 server in the configuration naming context container in AD? A config connection agreement will need to be running for this info to replicate into AD and an SRS running on the first E2K server. You did install the Exchange ADC I hope (SP2 version preferred). Also it is not clear whether you have already upgraded another E55 server to 2K.
