Hi Guys,
I have a large office running Outlooks 2003 with Exchange 2003w/SP1 (and
Windows 2003wSP1) on the back-end. Due to a number of contractors joining my
company, we have configured a restricted VLAN for them to work on. They are
allowed email access, and have access to the exchange server that hosts all
email for this office. However, they are restricted from acessing any other
exchange server. When a user on this VLAN opens up Outlook it sits there for
exactly 10 minutes with Updating Folders sitting in the bottom right of the
splash screen. After 10 minutes it works fine. If I move this workstation to
the normal network it works fine, no delay. We setup a sniffer on the network
traffic from this workstation, and found it was trying to communnicate to all
my Exchange servers in my organisation. Why is it trying to communicate with
all my other Exchange servers? Is this normal behaviour? I assumed that once
they login to a DC, and their profile has them pointing to their designated
Exchange server using the RPC endpoint mapper for port range, there shouldn't
be any reason to contact all Exchange servers???
Please help, problem is driving me crazy!
