Morning George! Have uninstalled and re-installed both Office XP and 2K niether allows me access. The users can get to the mail on any other workstation in nouse and OWA. It effects all levels of users including domain admins. Have tried dis-joining the domain, deleting the workstation account and then re-joining the domain. Had a suggestion to try the IP address in the mail account rather than the name for the server. Will let you know how that works. I have tried to remove the mail account configuration and am denied access to doing so "as an account for an E2K server has already been established"? How it is established, I have know idea, and why I cannot connect to the server, same answer. If you have anymore questions- suggestions, I would gladly listen to all of them! Thanks Ken I am looking now at doing a full scale rebuild of the workstation. Last resort thing! -----Original Message----- From: it Sent: Fri 13/09/2002 3:30 AM To: [ExchangeList] Cc: Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Cannot connect to server issue!!!! http://www.MSExchange.org/ Ken Have you tried reinstalling a complete office XP or downgrading to Office 2000 (if you can)? Iâm assuming you can get access to the mailbox on another machine with outlook and you canât get access to any mailboxes on the new PC, or is it just one user? Does OWA work on the new machine? Sounds like a specific Outlook problem rather than a connectivity thing.

I just replaced one PC with another at the same wall port (same type of PC, same OS and office XP). When you try to connect to the users mailbox on this machine I get a message that tells me that it cannot find the E2K server. This is strange because I can browse to the server via the network as well as ping and tracert to it. I have logged on as the Admin and still have not been able to get to it. The Box, and cables have all been replaced, and the cables all tested. The DNS settings are correct on the box. I only have connectivity tester and this shows as being good between the wall port and patch panel. Any suggestions? Thanks Ken This is the only one having issues in the whole place! The first box was replaced due to other reasons the Outlook ran fine on that one!!! ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this MSExchange.org Discussion List as: msteiner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send a blank email to leave-exchangelist-501652C@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this MSExchange.org Discussion List as: kmorris@xxxxxxx To unsubscribe send a blank email to leave-exchangelist-501652C@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this MSExchange.org Discussion List as: it@xxxxxx To unsubscribe send a blank email to leave-exchangelist-501652C@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this MSExchange.org Discussion List as: kmorris@xxxxxxx To unsubscribe send a blank email to leave-exchangelist-501652C@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
