Account Disablement

[TomBarrand]

Hi,

If I disable a user's AD user account will this automatically disable the user's Exchange account. I am using 2003.

Cheers

Tom

Tom,

From my experience, yes disabling a user's AD account will disable their mail and (if you use ISA) their web access.

Example: I disabled 2 previous employee's network accounts, and Veritas had errors backing up their exchange mailboxes that night.
