I'm assuming the Outlook was directing the data to a .pst file and that this file was stored in the folder containing the user's profile data. However, I cannot find a .pst file anywhere.

Re: Domain name change
Dear friend, 1. create a recipient policy that creates the new (second) smtp-address for each of the users (like @second.com). You can do that in e2k system manager. 2. Create an MX record in the internet-dns that directs internet mail designated for the new second adress (second.com) to the smtp-connector of your e2k-organisation (may be the same e2k-server). 3. if your users should be represented with the new domain name, so you can decide to take the new smtp-address as first-address in response mails. 3. for your outlook users the whole thing is transparent - you have to do nothing. But it's better to inform the users to take the new address in their signature and so on...

RE: NT List issue, but I am not getting there at the moment, as you will read.
Title: Message Actually, on that note, maybe someone can help me here today. It is an NT List issue, but unfortunately, a technical error was made by the company down the hall to do with regenerating a RAID 5 volume with the Exchange Services running, and my NT List mails have bounced back to Sunbelt all week as a result, prompting them to put that on hold. As loads of you are on both lists, I figured what the heck, hopefully Monday will see that resolved, but in the mean time I am kinda stuck. Anyways, there is another casino right next door, and we are very friendly with them. So much so that we have set up a trust between our two very different forests. (two external one way trusts). One of our people will be working nights in their office, and I would love to allow him to use one of their machines to log onto our LAN. We have connected one of our DC's each by adding a second NIC, and using a 10.x.x.x subnet. We have done all sorts of poking and prodding, and I don;t want to make a huge list of what was and wasn't done, so perhaps a simple list will give you an idea, then another list of what we can and cannot do. both machines are configured as routers both machines can ping the other's 'internal' IP Address the trust is verified on both sides both machines routing tables have had each others internal net ID added I am not sure how to create sites in this instance as we are working in two separate forests I can add my cohorts account to local admins on my domain, he cannot see any user accounts in our domain I can log onto his domain from only the machine with a physical connection to their LAN, and no others, likewise on their side (Domain Controller Could Not Be Contacted) he can see all of my machines in network places, but can only connect to my DC, I can only see his DC in network places I can ping any machine on his LAN he cannot ping anything but my DC I can open any of his AD Admin tools by right clicking and selecting choose DOMAIN/FOREST/DOMAIN CONTROLLER, he cannot do the same in reverse So, what am I missing in getting these two forests working together here. I want to go back to England for Christmas, and it would be great if he could cover for me from his office while I am away.

Try the following syntax and you can direct wherever you want including mapped drives. For example, C:\exchsrver/bineseutil /d /ispriv /tf:\tempedb.edb. Notice, there is no space between the /t and the drive you wish to defrag on. -Original Message- From: Abercrombie, Sherry [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 31, 2001 9:23 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Eseutil I'm not familiar with E2K, but on 5.5 I regularly (read monthly) run eseutil. I run it because that is the ONLY way to regain space in the Exchange DB that has been freed up by messages being deleted etc. If I did not do this on a regular basis I would hit the Exchange 5.5 IS limit. I would guess that it would be /t f:/tempedb.edb or what ever you plan to use for the defrag. It may not work, it doesn't work in 5.5 when you try to redirect the temp database, it must run on the same physical drive that it is stored. Good luck.

That is correct. The eval version is Enterprise only. The only upgrade path is to the enterprise version. I am not familiar with a way around this. It certainly would not be supported.
