Hi

We have a single Site/Server setup currently, and are looking to add some
additional servers to the site, to be based at remote offices.

Problem is, we cant get a successful installation. It always fails towards
the end with the following message;

some replication operations were not completed. directories will be updated
during normal replication updates....etc

Event viewer says;

Unexpected error <<0xc0040000 - Network problems are preventing connection
to the Microsoft Exchange Server computer. Contact your system administrator
if this condition persists. MAPI was unable to load the information service
emsabp.dll. Be sure the service is correctly installed and configured.
Microsoft Exchange Address Book ID no: 00040380-0000-00000000>> occurred. 

I've run a search on the drives on the Exchange Server, and cant find that
file at all.

I've checked both the Directory and Directory Synch Services are running,
but none made a difference.

Name resolution is handled by WINS, and seems fine. I can ping back and
forwards between the servers using their Netbios names and IP adds, I have
tried the rpcpings programme, and all seems well, and I have checked the
relevant technet documents relating to this error.

I've had a similar errors on one installation, which instructed me to Check
Knowledge Consistency on the Directory service, which said it found errors,
and corrected them.

I've just applied SP3, which made no difference. A few weeks ago we were
forced to change the admin password (which is also the service account
password for exchange) although we updated all the services (but nothing
else) and all seemed well. Exchange itself seems to work fine.

I've considered using Exmerge off the reskit to export all the mailboxes top
PST, and start afresh, but it keeps telling me it doesn't have permission to
access the message store (MSEMS)

I'm pretty sure Ive checked all the permissions tabs, and all seems well.

I'm getting kind of desperate now, and need some kind of solution, no matter
how long winded it might seem, regarding re-installs etc.

Regards

Nik
