I had the same issue and had to upgrade to Win 2003 Standard Server on the DC's. That was the only solution I found. ________________________________ From: Byron (Yahoo) [mailto:snail945@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tue 11/8/2005 9:15 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] Re: RPC over http http://www.MSExchange.org/ so in my case i'm in a tough spot because: 1. i have only 1 exch 2003 server (and client is too small to justify another) 2. both DCs are win2k sp4 So, it looks like the net/net is that we can't run rpc over http unless we upgrade the DCs to 2003 - provide for a 2003 global catalog. do you see a simpler alternative than planning to upgrade the 2 DCs to Windows 2003? given the info provided. thanks much-byron ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carl Houseman" <c.houseman@xxxxxxxxx> To: "[ExchangeList]" <exchangelist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, November 07, 2005 5:26 PM Subject: [exchangelist] Re: RPC over http > http://www.MSExchange.org/ > > One does not "make this E2K3 server a DC." without consequences. > > http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822179 > "Changing the role of a server after you install Exchange Server 2003 may > result in loss of some Exchange functionality and is not supported.
