The delegates page is not available

[George Farhat]

Hi,

In outlook 2000 configured as corporate and workgroup, when I try to
delegate a user to access my Mailbox I get the error:
"The delegates page is not available. Unable to access outlook folder.
Network problems are preventing connection to the Microsoft Exchange server
computer.... "
Although I'm connected to the network and the exchange server is available.

PS: Screen shot attached

Are you working online at the time?

[George Farhat]

OF course I'm Online all workstations are connected to a corporate LAN. This
error pops up on all outlook clients who needs to delegate users to their
mailbox.

Do you see the "network problems" message at any other time? If you have
Outlook installed on the server (yes, it's a big no-no to a lot of people,
but it's often done) can you open a mailbox and see the delegates tab?

Can you tell us more about your network & the server? What form of local
name resolution do you use? All NICs locked down at a specific speed/duplex
setting? What protocols in use?

[George Farhat]

No, this error message occurs only when accessing the delegates tab, Outlook
is not installed on the Exchange server.
It's a windows 2000 mixed domain, Win2k, win9x clients, TCP/IP, NetBios
(for 9x clients) DNS. I don't think it's a
NIC hardware problem.
