Well, It could be worse. Then again, maybe not.

Otherwise, it doesn't have access to validate the Service Account. It also has to run off the exact same user account. Check Technet on how to change the Service Account. Also Sounds to me like you needs to be readin' the Disaster Recovery White Paper.

There is only one item that this client requires and that is a public folder with all of his contact details for a news letter (2000 - 3000 Contacts). We managed to recover a copy of the priv.edb, pub.edb and dir.edb and build a new server with the old site name and organisation. we then ran eseutil and isinteg -patch and all seems to be OK The system attendant and the directory service started.(a good start) The problem is that when we run up the other services we get Event 9994 and error 2186 (both relate to logon issue) which is the service account and password are incorrect. We have changed the account to services and also to admin but to no avail. Anyone have any ideas on how to get this information back Thanks Roger Smith Technical Support Manager OfficePCs 10 Cape Street Dickson Phone : 62579111 Fax: 62579004 [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The information contained in this email message is privileged and confidential information intended only for the use of the individual or entity to whom it is addressed.
