I see nothing strange in ldp and no replication errors in event log or rep monitor. I think its a permissions issue but i have nowhere to begin looking and as far as i know nothing has been changed. They don't really have an IT dept(we admin them) so no one would even know how to change something anyway. I can see the server and admin group using enterprise manager from my domain just not theirs(where the server is located). However when i try to access the directory tab of the server, i get "information about directory services could not be entirely obtained. make sure exchange management service is running". exchange management service IS running. very strange indeed. any other thoughts, tips? thanks

Is it possible that there's a replication issue? Have you checked the logs of the domains to see what's logged when you attempt to connect? Just where did they move the domain administrators from/to? Just from cn=users to something else?

Moving the domain administrators group is not something that should cause this type of issue. What else was done during those changes? -----Original Message----- From: Kern, Tom [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 14, 2004 12:45 PM To: Admin Issues (E-mail) Cc: ActiveDir (E-mail) Subject: [ActiveDir] moving domain admins I know moving the default exchange groups out of the users folder can screw things up as exchange expects to find them there, but will moving the domain admins from the users folder into another ou(no gpo applied) screw things up with exchange or any other services in ad? I only ask because some admin in another domain moved this group and now when i open exchange manager in their domain, i can't see the servers or any admin groups. i'm running exchange manager as their administrator account and thier domain admins have full exchange rights on their admin group. other than that exchange is functioning normally. thanks List info : http://www.activedir.org/mail_list.htm List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/list_faq.htm List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/ List info : http://www.activedir.org/mail_list.htm List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/list_faq.htm List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/ List info : http://www.activedir.org/mail_list.htm List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/list_faq.htm List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/ List info : http://www.activedir.org/mail_list.htm List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/list_faq.htm List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/ List info : http://www.activedir.org/mail_list.htm List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/list_faq.htm List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/
