I've been running the DS/IS Consistency Adjuster on my
Exchange 5.5 organization in preparation for a migration
to 2003. I got a slew of warnings about public folders
with no Owner, so I've gone through and manually fixed
them.

However, even after all that, I still have the
folder "System Configuration" showing up in each site as
having no Owner. I cannot find this folder in the
Exchange Administration utility to fix it.

How can I resolve this issue? If it can't be fixed, then
will it cause problems with either the ADC connection
agreements or the replication to the new Exchange 2003
servers if I leave it as-is?
