Public Folder permissions - Microsoft Exchange

Exchange 2000 or 2003?
What type of client in use, OL or OWA?
What error is seen from the client, any?
Any ACL-related errors in the application log, like 9548, 9552, 9551?
Other servers work fine- any obvious differences? If you replicate one of
these folders to another server can you access it from the other server?
Is this a MAPI Public folder store or Non-MAPI?

This is exchange 2000 outlook 2000, single exchange server one domain. I do
not notice any acl errors in log, but then again I am not on site full
time basis. I believe this is happening on MAPI
