Yep, did that.  No luck.  I wonder if I need Advance Server for it to work.
I'm only using Win 2K server.  Anyway, I will not be sweating over it.  I'm
just glad my E2K is somewhat functioning now :)

Hmm... Interesting.  What I would do is open the System Manager, expand
Administrative Groups, <SITENAME>, Servers, <SERVERNAME>, Protocols, and see
if Instant Messaging (RVP) is listed.  If so, then just follow the steps in
the KB article I mentioned below.

Hi Chris,  I just tried it again and the same thing.  The IM option is
greyed out and it does not have the - sign beside it.  Not sure what RTM is
but I'm using the Exchange 2000 server disk (the one I used to install
Exchange).  I actually even try to see if it is in the SP disk but no luck
there too.  Bummer.

Thanks
Vince

I have just setup the Instant Messaging service for a client of ours that is
running Exchange 2000 (not the Enterprise version).  If you want to have the
"Forums" or "Chat" rooms, then you need to purchase the add-on Exchange 2000
Conferencing Server.  Instant Messaging comes with both Exchange 2000
versions (Standard and Enterprise).

I would follow KB Article 266643, as that goes trough how to setup Instant
Messaging.

If the option is greyed out, then you most likely are trying to install it
off of the SP CD or installation.  Are you sure that you are using the RTM
disk for Exchange 2000?

I am using this.  It works pretty well.  We don't use it for everyone on =
the terminal servers but for those who do use it, there have been no =
issues.

take a look at: Q266643,Q319758,Q264472

I noticed in Exchange manual that they have an Instant Messaging option =
and a Chat option but when I try to install this, it does not allow me =
because both are greyed out.  Anyone using this?  Is this a thing I have to
buy separately?

Thanks
