It's amazing how far you can go when you talk nonsense and act like an idiot!

Good for you Kevin, maybe there is hope for English 101 dropouts :)

Firstly, check out who has rights to Create Top Level folders here.... (In Exchange Admin) Org A-Site-Configuration-Information Store Site COnfiguration.

ENSURE (take note not INSURE) that you are selected in the Top Level Folder Creation listbox.

Hi All,

I'm having difficulty getting administrative access to part of the Public Folders tree - I've given myself more access permissions than you could shake a stick at through Exchange Admin and waited several days to see if it makes any difference but it doesn't.

Caveats first - I'm the fireman here, I had no part in creating the situation!

We have Organisation A containing Site A containing two servers. Server A is NT4 SP5, Exch 5.5 SP3. Server B is NT4 SP6, Exch 5.5 SP4. Server A is our mail gateway. 80% of our mailboxes are on Server A and 20% of our mailboxes are on Server B.

Server B has recently been added to the site and mailboxes have been imported into it from PSTs which in turn were exports of mailboxes from Server X (NT4 SP6, Exch 5.5 SP4).

The problem exists in Organisation A.

The Hierarchy in public folders, seen through OL97 client, is thus:

Public Folders
        |___ Favorites
        |___ All Public Folders
                |___ Internet Newsgroups
                |       |___ {several appointments containers}
                |___ Quarantine Folder {blah}

I can rename "All Public Folders" but I can't create subfolders directly in it - when I click OK in the create subfolders dialogue, I get a "... do not have sufficient permission...see folder contact or system administrator..." message. I am a system administrator. In properties of All Public Folders there is no contact listed, so I couldn't contact them even if I thought it would help.

I can create subfolders of the Internet Newsgroups folder.
The symptoms are the same when using the OL2K client.
I have tried running DS/IS Consistency Adjuster on both servers. On Server A I get a number of messages of the form "The description for Event ID (xxxx) in Source ( xxxxxxxxxxx) could not be found. It contains the following insertion string(s): {blah}". Server B is able to find Event descriptions. Consistency Adjuster generates Event IDs 7024, 7040 and 7042 on server A, Event IDs 7024,7028, 7040 and 7017 on Server B.

On Server A,  the system event log contains a large number of event 10003s : "Access denied attempting to launch a DCOM Server using DefaultLaunchPermssion. The server is: {?class? string in here}."

It may or may not be relevant but Server X is not as yet connected in any way to Organisation A, but I would like to connect in order to migrate the Public folders of Organisation X to Organisation A using inter-organisation replication.

Can anyone shed any light on what may be (not) happening here?
