So, you made significant changes to the network topology, and since then it isn't working (whether next door as Steve speculates or across the country <g>)? Did you move the key infrastructure components relative to the Exchange pieces (in this case, Exchange servers, DC/GC, Wherever Veritas lives)? If you go to the Exchange Server and do a SET at the CMD prompt, what is shown as the logon server? How about from the Veritas server? It sounds like you have something either unable to perform the authentication because it can't find or can't reach your security provider (AD that is) - which if you were NATting in some fashion and changed that around could make a lot of sense. Can you elaborate on the network topology that gets you from each of the key components I mention here (as well as any others you think are pertinent) to the other parts? One thing I left off up there - DNS of course - if that lives or is provided somewhere other than via the DC. -----Original Message----- From: Steve Moffat [mailto:steve@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, May 27, 2005 9:24 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Veritas errors on Echange system http://www.MSExchange.org/ They're now next door.

What has changed is the actual location of the organization, though it is a NAT'd network. This seems to have started once the move from one location to another was completed John J.
