1. Apply latest service pack 2. Lock down all your NICs' speed and duplex settings, as well as the hub. Server and workstations, please. 3. The thing that fixed it once and for all, for me, was the Office XP Accessibility Update thingy. This should be rolled into OfficeXP SP2. 4. Does this happen when the user accesses the root of a public folder tree, with 12 bazillion public folders at that level? Decrease that. 5. RPC binding order on the client. (I don't believe this should be necessary, but "couldn't hoit.") 6. DNS, DNS, DNS.
Your final question, "What is wrong...?" is interesting. Before, Outlook would just hang. Now it tells you it's hanging. The difference is somebody staring at you slack-jawed, and someone saying "gimme a minute to think..." -----Original Message----- From: Andrey Fyodorov [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: Friday, November 15, 2002 1:40 PM Posted To: MSExchange Mailing List Conversation: Online Defragmentation Subject: OL XP - requesting data from server Hey all. I am really getting tired of hearing again and again from my users that their Outlook XP pops up a progress bar that slowly crawls across and says "Outlook is requesting data from Exchange server". This is happening to our internal Outlook XP users. The users and the Exchange server are on the same LAN. What is wrong with this XP? _________________________________________________________________ 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]
