I am doing my best to avoid turning this feature on, as I don't want the overhead and the user support issues.
I'd welcome opinions and advice on the usage of it. Also, has anyone ever got it to work successfully outside the enterprise?

There wasn't an option to change the "failover time". It would automatically failover after 20 seconds, didn't like that. From what I remember though, they have a tech support help desk. You may want to give them a call.

What is the BDC? You need to provide more information about your domain if anyone is to help you. PS Get NT 4.0 SP6a on those NT4 servers asap. -----Original Message----- From: Jeff Pace [ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ] Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2002 11:21 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Double-take failover Hello all, I have two exchange servers that are running double-take. Everything is fine and dandy until I test the failover. The #2 machine takes over the identity of the #1 machine. This works fine, what doesn't work is the login to the domain. I lose my domain login and in result cannot pass email over the network. When I try rebooting the #2 machine (now #1) the domain says the account doesn't exist. I have inherited this network and the domain was setup already. I don't know much about how the domain works. Servers = NT4.0 compaq proliant SP 4 exchange = 5.5 The odd thing about this situation is that I aslo have two other servers running double-take, although not on ecxhange, and they work fine when failed over and failed back.
