Try setting some to fixed IP's and fixed DNS/WINS details on some of the affected workstations. Sounds like a possible dhcp/portfast switch problem if you can reboot and get it working. Cheers, Marty

Normally should be tcpip. Can't remember the path though. Also, I think resolution is supposed to be via WINS. -----Original Message----- From: Carolyn Ramsey [ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> < mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > ] Sent: Thursday, November 08, 2001 7:49 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Outlook not responding User boots PC up in the morning, opens Outlook and it sits on the splash screen. These are Win98SE OS, MS logins to a NT4 domain. It can sit there all day (but they call us first) before actually opening the app. Once a technician arrives and reboots the PC, Outlook will open. Viewing the tasks that are running at first bootup, you see "MS Outlook not responding." There's no consistency regarding location. We've tested and re-run wiring; they are CAT5 to a 100M hub running fiber to a 100M switch to an Exchange5.5 server. Any ideas would be appreciated.
