I have had 1 site with E2K running for a while now and I added another E2K
server in another site and am trying to configure it to send mail back and
forth. For the most part I think it is setup right. Each site has its own
routing group and smtp connector for sending and receiving internet mail.
The DNS namespace is public: company.com and internal company.net both the
exchange servers are on the public dns servers (company.com) and at this
point there is only a primary dns server (due to a unknown problem that I am
still working on). The symptoms are that Site A functions completely normal
sending mail to both remote domains and Site B. Site B on the other can send
to remote domains but not Site A. I have re-added the site B routing group
connector many times with the exact inverse properties of site A. Messages
just sit in the queue. Now at first I thought it was some type of DNS issue
because of the other problem I was having but now I do not think so, because
I can manage the remote servers in both directions and correctly resolve any
name. I was just studying the Eventlog on site B more and found:

Event Type: Error
Event Source: MSExchangeAL
Event Category: Service Control
Event ID: 8260
Date: 3/12/2004
Time: 4:48:41 PM
User: N/A
Computer: SERVERsiteB
Description:
Could not open LDAP session to directory 'SERVERsiteA.COMPANY.NET' using
local service credentials. Cannot access Address List configuration
information. Make sure the server 'SERVERsiteA.COPMPANY.NET' is running.
DC=COMPANY,DC=NET

And this link gives details
http://www.microsoft.com/products/ee/transform.aspx?EvtSrc=MSExchangeAL&EvtCat=Service%20Control%20&EvtID=8260&CoName=Microsoft%20Corporation&ProdName=Microsoft%20Exchange&ProdVer=6.0.6249.0&FileVer=6.0.6249.0

Now SERVERsiteA is not a domain controller and I am thinking that this
setting wherever it is needs to be changed to my domain controller. Does
anyone know where to do this? Also if anyone sees some problems with the
general setup of the messaging system please let me know as I am learning as
I go.
Thanks in advance,
