Can't resolve name

G

Guest

When I try to connect to our exchange server I encountered this error message:

"The name could not be resolve. The name could not be matched to a name in
the address list"

But in the server all the address of the users exist. Please advice

Thanks

Version of Outlook? When exactly do you get this message? When you are
composing a message, open Outlook or when you configure Outlook for an
Exchange account

Outlook 2003 conects by FQDN. Can you ping the server by it's FQDN? If not
make sure the DNS settings on the workstation, Exchange server and DNS
server are correct.
