We have 9 exchange 5.5 sp4 nt4 6a servers and 1 exchange server 5.5 sp4 nt

for us. How are you all handling this? Below is the technet article that I
found that says this is by design. I don't believe it...

You could (1) not take servers offline, and/or (2) upgrade to Exchange 2000
or 2003.

Thanks for the reply Ed, so this is how you handle the situation. There has
to be a work around...or am I being to hopeful.. Does anybody know why this
is by design

OWA doesn't know that another Exchange server is unavailable
until it tries
to connect to it (i.e. whan a user tries to logon). Like any
other client
process, it will attempt to find and communicate with the
server, and wait a

I don't want to speak for Ed but I understand him to say that normally,
servers shouldn't be disappearing during the times when user access them.

you must do

I agree with Ed myself, and it happens that way here as we are a educational
institution and students come first. But its the idea that this has affected
all of the campus's not just one group and I know I'm going to hear about it

Well I work at an educational institution myself which may be bigger or
smaller than yours, I don't know and I don't think it matters. We dealt with
the problem by upgrading to Exchange 2000. Exchange 5.5 is what, six years

Of course. Yup, only servers in there!!
I fear that this is a classic case of Ed's adage.
I have had the same experience as Andy has with the logon screen saver
although Martin's Mac and Cheese saver does intrigue me :) Shades of BNL.
