Slap that admin really, really hard.  And then send him on some AD and Exchange training.

Nothing really, well I thought so. After reseaching and digging through all sorts, I found the answer in a change one of our junior administrators made. He disabled the default domain controller policy. This in trun stops the GC servers from functioning, and we all know how Exchange relies of the CG especially the Information store that would not start. Find a link below to MS article that deals with this for all those interested.

What happened just prior to the issue? Server updates?  New server?  Power failure and crash?  Hardware failure?
