Hi all, I seem to be having problems creating Public folders in the default public folder tree or any new public folder tree. I can go into the 'Folders' and create a new public folder tree...but when i attempt to create a public folder...i get the error message that says the folder doesn't not exist. and when i refresh any of the public folder trees, i get this error: " Could not locate the root folder. Ensure that your default virtual server is running and it is configured correctly. If you have used the IIS Lockdown or URL Scanning security tools on your server, go to 'MS support' for more info. ID no: c103b405 I'm not running the IIS Lockdown or URL scanning. Everything else works fine. My exchange is on 2003 running windows 2000 which i will upgrade later this week. any ideas? thanks all. -chris
