exchange chkds utility or chkds55 utility?

[dimebar]

Hello everyone,
I desparately need to find a copy of this utility to remove an orphaned object from my 5.5 organisation. Microsoft won't give it to me as exchange 5.5 is no longer supported.
Please help.

Can you describe the problem you've got exactly? There are probably ways round not having chkds55.

Hi,
We were installing exchange 2003 on a 2nd site and due to various reasons the existing 5.5 server was removed before replication had taken place properly. Subsequently decommissioning of this server does not appear to have happened properly as we can still see the server within the site in our 5.5 org.
I have logged a call with microsoft and they have offered no support on 5.5 however I found my problem here

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;194951

and microsoft will not release the tool to me.
Thanks
