RE: exchange 2003 issue
Dennis, On 2000/2003 installs I generally have my RUS use a DC that is a GC. If you go to ESM -> Recipients -> recipient update services and right click on your domain there. Verify that the DC listed is still active and is a GC. I dont know about your environment, but I doubt the workload on the DC/GCs are so high that they are unable to process requests and thus cause Exch to throw errors. Not impossible, just highly unlikely. (unless perhaps you are in a SBS environment or one of those shops that thinks user services should be running on DCs). Let us know how it looks tomorrow and if the errors come back. -troy From: Dennis Rogov [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, March 01, 2008 8:16 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: exchange 2003 issue Nope they haven't how do I verify this The errors stopped coming up at 1;00 am and have not returned. it could be that there is workload on the server as we are In off hours right now Dr -Original Message- From: Troy Meyer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: NT System Admin Issues Sent: Sat Mar 01 10:57:24 2008 Subject: RE: exchange 2003 issue Dennis, Has MS has you check your receipient update services and make sure that is up to date as well?

RE: exchange 2003 issue
Don't get frustrated with MS, it's a big company and reality is you need to start at the bottom. Email his mangler (at the bottom of all his emails to you) and ask to be escalated as your business can not sustain the delay any longer. You'll be escalated to the escalation team (coincidence :) ) and that's sometimes night and day different! I just had to do this with a file server issue. jlc From: Dennis Rogov [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, February 29, 2008 5:09 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: exchange 2003 issue Everything is 2003 We are running Native Mode (AD integrated) 3 sites 3 global Catalogs one per site Dr Dennis Rogov Senior Network Analyst THE Peer GROUP an informed medical communications company 379 thornall street, 12th floor | edison, nj 08837 usa Direct: 732-205-8376 | fax: 732.321.0636 |Cell:732.861.2277 [EMAIL PROTECTED]<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> www.peergroupinc.com<http://www.peergroupinc.com> [This e-mail and any attachments thereto, is intended only for use by the addressee(s) named herein and may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information.
