S From: Jonathan Link [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2008 5:53 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Distribution list not being displayed in Global Back from the world of public accounting. Actually, I'm still there, but my role has changed a bit... I've recently assumed network administration duties for a Windows SBS 2003 deployment with Exchange (2003) installed. I last worked with Exchange at version 2000 over two years ago. As I recall, when one adds a distribution group through the Exchange provided Active Directory Users and Computers that group should automatically be displayed in the Global Address List, unless you've selected otherwise. Unfortunately that I don't see the group, and I had to shoehorn the user into the GAL, and don't recall the steps I took to do it. Also, when I create new users, or groups, no email addresses appear in the Email addresses tab. As I recall this isn't normal behavior. And to provide complete information, I did select Universal and I did select Distribution for the scope and type, respectively. A quick google search didn't really stand out at me, but I may not be searching for the correct thing, if so, I'll take my punishment like a man! :-) Mainly, I'm looking for a sanity check or a possible idea of what/where to look to fix this. Also, I need a good book to pickup for Exchange 2003 specifically. The previous admin purchased all the books personally and removed them when he left. That won't be the case with me, but it's another story altogether. It also wouldn't suprise me if this is a messed up configuration, since I've seen plenty of messed up configurations since assuming the responsibility. Thanks, Jonathan S.
