Dear all, I have installed my sbs2003, every thing is perfect, user can log on to server and client applications(outlook2003) installed accordingly. My problem is I can't connect to exchange through OL, while configuring OL it says " cannot contact the server.....". I have doubt my domain name is "homeonly.local", what I have type in OL config is \\Exchange\homeonly OR \\exchange\homeonly.local OR \\homeonly\exchange.

I confused now as I am typing the server could be wrong? If someone can advise me , what to type on the exchange path in the OL. pls help me Regards Anver

You need to use the Netbios name of the server, not the domain name
