Hi Exchange 2003 sp1 on windows server 2003 std. Since yesterday, I have been unable to browse the folder list (Public), in ESM. No problem in outlook, or owa though. On trying to browse through ESM, I am presented with a logon box and when I enter any of the exchange admin passwords, (I have 2 Exchange admin logons, only 1 admin, Me), it re-appears. If I cancel out it returns the error - Access denied. Facility: Win32 Id no: 80070005 Exchange System Manager. There are absolutely no errors in the event log on restarting the box, or when this error occurs. All services are up and running. OWA is being accessed by ssl. Absolutely no changes have been made to this in the last week, (I updated GFI Mailessentials 2 weeks ago. I have uninstalled GFI, so all that is installed on the server is Exchange.) I have even created a new public folder tree, but I get the same results. Has anyone any idea's on what to try to do to fix this. Steve
