First off, we have found this to be just an Outlook issue. We implemented
AppSense to combat this issue. Secondly, you can always copy the DB to an
alternate location, copy ESEUTIL.EXE and ESE*.dll to the same alternate
location. ESEUTIL doesn't have to be run from the server.
As for upgrading, I would look at going directly to Exchange 2003 and
Windows Server 2003. While Exchange 2000 and Windows 2000 are pretty solid
(with the exception of a few things), Exchange and Windows 2003 are looking
pretty good out of the gate.
Of course, try to test if at all possible.

Subject: [THIN] Outlook freezing Citrix session
Has anyone experienced problems with end-users' freezing in a Citrix session
due to Outlook? If so, what did you do to verify if it was either a Citrix
problem or an Outlook / Exchange problem. Not everyone is experiencing
this, just the CEO, CFO, and some other managers! (This problem really
picked the right people to irritate!)
I know it is an Outlook problem, because when I terminate other apps within
the users session, they are still frozen. When I terminate Outlook, their
Citrix session runs smoothly, and they can start Outlook back up without a
hitch.
Currently we are using Outlook XP with Exchange 5.5 / NT4 SP6a and MetaFrame
XPa FR1.
My thought is that it is an Exchange 5.5 problem, and that the database is
getting corrupted, etc. I would have done an eseutil on the *.edb files
awhile back, but there is not enough HDD space to do it! If this is the
case, we are planning on to move to Exchange 2000 or 2003, but we have not
decided which way to go. Any recommendations which way to go would also be
of help.
Thanks in advanced,
