Cannot see neither access newly created mailboxes

Hi,

I have Exchange 2000 server installed on my Windows 2000 Server backup
domain controller. Recently I had a problem with active directory
synchronization, and with some viruses too but I (thought I) was able
to resolve it. Now all seems to work fine but after creating
successfully new mailbox enabled user in ADUC, I can't see the newly
created mailbox in Exchange System Manager, but it can be found by
using find in ADUC (Find->Exchange->"Show only Exchange Recipients",
"Users with exchange mailbox").

Trying to access the mailbox using Outlook I get (clicking on "Check
Name"): "The name could not be resolved". "The action could not be
completed" error. If I try using OWA I get "The page cannot be found"
HTTP 404 - File not found error

Is there any solution other than reinstalling the complete system?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks very much

regards, dejan

are the accounts stamped with an smtp address? sounds like a possible RUS
problem...

then it's possibly an OAB issue...try rebuilding the OAB...or take the
profile out of cached mode...

I have tried that, but with no success. One guy just made me realise
that in ADUC->Exchange
Advanced/Mailbox Rights are set to SELF only and thisis not the case
with other accounts. On the other side, I have read somewhere those
rights are generated when you first access/logon to the user
mailbox....which I can not :-))

I have just created a ldap dump of the user object. There are many
properties not set or set "differently" from the other (coorect
mailbox user). Maybe this can help you help me :-)):

- homeDB is not set
- cn and displayName are "wierd" (Tmlrb2xpxIcgTWlsamVua2E=)
- dSCorePropagationData does not exist
- mail is not set
- legacyExchangeDN is not set
- proxyAddresses are not set
- sn is "wierd" (Tmlrb2xpxIc=)
- homeMTA is not set
- msExchMailboxGuid is not set
- msExchMailboxSecurityDescriptor is not set
- msExchALObjectVersion is not set
- msExchPoliciesIncluded are not set

So many things seem wrong and I don't have a clue what is going
on....for example in E-mail Addresses tab for this user in ADUC the
mail addresses are shown and correct, but it seems they don't
exist....

thanks very much
