Probably the personal firewall in XP is the culprit

Do you have any Group Policy objects in place on the domain? Also, check to make sure no IPSec rules have been installed on the XP box that might screw up client connection. Also check to make sure that the personal firewall feature in XP is not turned on. Good luck.

I've searched Technet and Google so far without success. When I set up a profile for Outlook 2003 on a computer running Windows XP Pro, it takes longer than expected to resolve. Then, when Outlook starts, it will not connect to the Exchange Server and only works offline. This is inside my network benind a firewall that (theoretically) allows nearly all internal and outbound traffic. No VPN, POP3, etc. Server is NT 4 SP 6 with Exchange 5.5 SP 4 and all known post SP4 updates. On this same computer, NO problems if I install Win2k Pro and run Office 2003. No problems if I am running Windows XP and using Outlook 2002.
