I can get the new server joined to the domain with the old servers name and IP. -Original Message- From: Bailey, Matthew [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 09, 2003 5:36 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject:RE: Help...exchange down Have tried deleting the computer account then trying joining the domain? - Matt -Original Message- From: Bennett, Warren Mr DAC 5 SIG CMD [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 09, 2003 8:34 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Help...exchange down I have a 5.5 server whos drive c is toast.

RE: Help...exchange down
I don't believe you want to join the existing site if the server name and IP address are the same... You want to create a new org and site with the exact same name (spelling and case) for each. -Original Message- From: Bennett, Warren Mr DAC 5 SIG CMD [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Posted At: Monday, June 09, 2003 10:34 AM Posted To: swynk Conversation: Help...exchange down Subject: Help...exchange down I have a 5.5 server whos drive c is toast.

The MS white paper on Restoring and MS Exchange server is quite helpful too.

RE: Help...exchange down
Check the disaster recovery whitepapers (someone else has already provided a link) - I think when you install on the recovery server and you want to use the same name, you need to use the same Org and site name but create a new site, not join the existing site. Been a while and I could be wrong - check the white papers to be sure.
