Thank you. I checked it and it has my domain name in there. Should I have
the fully qualified domain name? But when a user does not put the domain
name in, it fails and puts in the exchange server name. If the user puts in
the domain name, it works fine. I guess that's not a problem as long as
everyone knows to do that.

We did change one of our Domain Controllers so that now they're both running
2003. I don't know if this has anything to do with it. We did this change
two weeks ago. Both DCs are doing DNS and DHCP as well.

Thanks for your help.
