Yeah.

But it seems that XP wants to hang more often. I am using Outlook 2000, most of my users are on XP. We are all on the same LAN, and the Exchange server is on the same LAN too.

Re: OL XP - requesting data from server
The (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Exchange\Exchange Provider, Rpc_Binding_Order, ncacn_ip_tcp,ncalrpc, REG_SZ), change DOES improve the efficiency in the communication between the XP client and the E2K server. I probably should have mentioned that, this is for ONLY E2K, not 5.5. The most dramatic performance improvement is when communicating with large data size transactions, ie. E-mail with large attachments, large public folders, or public folders with forms. I just used the delay of the window to calm users nerves, because by the time I had things figured out, users were edgy, due to this new contacting Exchange windows for a few months.

1. Apply latest service pack 2. Lock down all your NICs' speed and duplex settings, as well as the hub. Server and workstations, please. 3. The thing that fixed it once and for all, for me, was the Office XP Accessibility Update thingy. This should be rolled into OfficeXP SP2. 4. Does this happen when the user accesses the root of a public folder tree, with 12 bazillion public folders at that level? Decrease that. 5. RPC binding order on the client. (I don't believe this should be necessary, but couldn't hoit.) 6. DNS, DNS, DNS. Your final question, What is wrong...? is interesting. Before, Outlook would just hang. Now it tells you it's hanging.

RE: OL XP - requesting data from server
This notice is by design. There is an option on the progress bar that allows you to always run that notification in minimized mode, so that you never see it again. However, all that's going to do is make it seem like the client or the application is hung, thereby initiating a reboot by the user. Prior versions of Outlook also had this problem, they just didn't pop up a little message box telling you what the problem is. In my limited experience, this message usually indicates a lack of network bandwith between the client and the server being queried for information. -Original Message- From: Andrey Fyodorov [mailto:afyodorov;innerhost.com] Sent: Friday, November 15, 2002 11:40 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: OL XP - requesting data from server Hey all.
