    No extra devices, (VOIP, FAX, PDA, etc) but those registry keys do
exist.

David, do you have other MAPI applications accessing Outlook (VOIP, fax
client, PDA software)?  Can you check and see if you have either of the
following registry keys?

 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail\Microsoft Office Outlook

 

Or 

 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail\Microsoft Outlook

 

Regards,

        Though not specifically a Term Server issue, I thought some 
        smart person here could help. 

        Our users run either Outlook XP or Outlook 2003 on Windows 2000
and 
        Windows XP PCs'. We currently are running Exchange 2000. The
users keep 
        PST files out on their network shares, which reside on Windows
2003 Server 
        Clusters (HP DL 585) and the disks are on a SCSI Fiber Attached
EMC Clarion 300 CX SAN. 
        The users will be in Outlook and when they try to get to a
folder is a PST they get 
        "The set of folders could not be opened. The server is not
available. Contact 
        your administrator if this condition persists". And if they try
to move something 
        to or from the PST they get "Can't move items The file
\\servername\filename.pst <file:///\\servername\filename.pst>  could 
        not be accessed" 
        If they click on one of the folders in the PST files a few times
it may eventually open, 
        or if they go to Explorer and click on the file from inside
there it may. It seems that 
        if they have the file on a SAN based drive it is much more
susceptible to this. 
        I know that MS does not support PST files on network drives, but
this has been working 
        fine for years, until we moved from fiber attached "local" disks
and Windows 2000 to 
        the Windows 2003 / EMC combo. Any ideas?
