Sorry if this posted the first time, but I never saw it come across the wire here.

Got a problem with dir.edb here, need to see if anyone has a solution.
 
Mail server (5.5 on NT sp 6) went down hard.  Brought it back up and now the
directory service won't start.

I ran the eseutil program against dir, pub, and priv and only dir cam back as
inconsistent.
 
So I went to run eseutil /r /ds on the file, but it keeps looking at c:\exch...
when the files are in d:\exch...  I enherited this mail server when I started here so 
it makes me fearful when I see in the MS tech notes that the logs are  hardcoded to 
look at c:, so my question is, is there a work around.  All of the .edb files are 
stored in d, not in c:.
I tried backing up a copy of the dsadata file, then moving that to c:.  The recovery 
util did run, but when I moved it back to d:, it still errors out. with a 550 error

I've looked on the list and several other sources and have found at least 4 different 
ways to possibly fix this, but I don't want to make matters worse.

Tom
