Outlook 2001

[Deanna]

I actually have two questions, I have many Macs that were
originally installed with OS 9 and then subsequently
upgraded to OS 10.2. I have installed Outlook 2001 and
during the original install, I am able to connect to the
Exchange server and send and receive email. But if I log
out and then log back in and try to open Outlook I simply
get that the Exhcnage server is unavailable. I do have
DNS running on the network and the Macs are receiving DHCP
settings and my internal domain, school.local is in the
Domain Search pane. Any ideas???

My second question is that I also have a couple of Macs
that were originally installed with OS 10.2 and when I try
to install Outlook 2001 on them, I am unable because it
says that there is no Classic 9 folder.

Thank you for any help you can provide.

Hi Deanna!

I can't help you with your first problem, but your second problem indicates
that Mac OS 9 may not be installed on your new Macs. Outlook will only run
in Classic mode and therefore you must have Mac OS 9 installed.

You can install Mac OS 9 onto the same partition as Mac OS X by either
booting from the Mac OS 9 CD or possibly by using the Restore feature of
your Mac OS X installer CD. You should have Mac OS 9 on it.

Hope this helps! bill
