I used ADC Tools.

>If you did run the ADCTools did you delete or disable any
of the Connection
>Agreements?

No.

>How many domains exist in your Windows Forest?

1

If you ran the ADCTools

There is only 1 domain and they do not exist there on the
Exchange 2003 server.

>Do the distributions lists reside in a special container
in the 5.5 Site?

They all reside in the Recipient container.

>Does the account on the Connections tabs of your User
Connection Agreements
>have permissions to see and make changes on this
container ?

Yes. I am logged in as the Exchange 5.5 system account.

>Does one of your User Connection Agreements Replicate the

Whatever the default would be. I can verify tomorrow.

>Is there a User Connection Agreement to the 5.5
Container with the

>Organization on the Advanced tab of the User Connection
Agreements?

Whatever the default would be. I can verify tomorrow.

>or warnings from the ADC Service?

Again, I can check this tomorrow.

On a seperate but related note, it seems they have a
number of custom recipients that do not have a primary
Windows NT account that also did not survive the
migration. Any easy way around this?

Thanks for the help,

Travis
