Mailbox creationI have an AD on a W2K - Std server and an Exchange Svr on a W2K - Enterprise
server. When I create a new account on the AD, an exchange mailbox is not created. When I go to the Exchange System Mgr, I cannot create a mailbox, since it expects the AD to create it. Is there a way to just create the mailbox for an existing user, since the mailbox was not created automatically when I setup the user account? Evans Craig to be able to create a mailbox you need to have system manager installed.
you can do that on the exchange server using ADUC or you can install system manager on the DC. with both you are able to do exchange related tasks. when the system manager is available you will be able to create a mailbox when you create a user -- Show quoteHide quoteCheers, (HOPEFULLY THIS INFORMATION HELPS YOU!) # Jorge de Almeida Pinto # MVP Windows Server - Directory Services BLOG --> http://blogs.dirteam.com/blogs/jorge/default.aspx ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- * This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties and confers no rights! * Always test before implementing! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Evans" <Ev***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:ACD5149E-4E8C-4153-A4D5-2C03CEE496A1@microsoft.com... >I have an AD on a W2K - Std server and an Exchange Svr on a W2K - >Enterprise > server.

I installed Exchange Manager on the DC and the Exchange Tasks became available. I have added the mail boxes to the users, but do not see them in System Manager. Maybe it takes a little time to enable? thanxs again -- Show quoteHide quoteEvans Craig Skillstorm IT San Diego Corp.

You shouldn't be doing user
management from a DC. Install the tools on a workstation where you do the user management from. -- Show quoteHide quoteJoe Richards Microsoft MVP Windows Server Directory Services Author of O'Reilly Active Directory Third Edition www.joeware.net ---O'Reilly Active Directory Third Edition now available--- http://www.joeware.net/win/ad3e.htm Jorge de Almeida Pinto [MVP] wrote: > to be able to create a mailbox you need to have system manager installed. > you can do that on the exchange server using ADUC or you can install system > manager on the DC. > with both you are able to do exchange related tasks. > when the system manager is available you will be able to create a mailbox > when you create a user >
