Exchange mailboxes

[fluid11]

I'm running Backup Exec 8.5 and Exchange 2000. I'm not having any trouble backing up the mailboxes, except for about 3 of them. They don't show up in the backup selections at all. These are the last 3 mailboxes that I created. Any newly created mailboxes do not even show up as an Exchange mailbox through Backup Exec. Any ideas as to why BE doesn't see these mailboxes?

Thanks for any help in advance.

FYI.  I fixed the problem.  Here's what I did.

I opened up ADSI Edit and changed the legacyExchangeDN attribute of the missing mailboxes.  The problem mailboxes weren't in lowercase, like they should be.  For example, if the attribute said this...

/O=org/OU=company/CN=RECIPIENTS/CN=USERS/CN=chris

then I changed it to this...

/o=org/ou=company/cn=RECIPIENTS/cn=USERS/cn=chris

Next I restarted the Backup Exec services and all of the mailboxes were showing.

Night_Rayn, you have a different problem than me that I have seen before in the past, and fixed it. First of all, have you ever been able to back up the Exchange mailboxes before, or did this problem just occur recently?

My response seems to have disappear from the site so here goes again.

Test Network
2 Servers
1 laptop (for client aspect)

First server is a NT BDC removed from the network(retired)
Second server standalone server with vertias and Exchange 5.5

goal: test out the upgrade to Exchange 2000

Exchange server setup to copy the name and setup of production server. Restore was done to create all of the mailboxes that are currently running. (during restore I was getting the same message of access denied to \\Server\Microsoft Exchange Mailboxes but the exchange directory and information store worked fine) turns out though that the mailboxes are there anyway.

My goal now is to backup the server so I can restore if I muck things up.

So I click on the mailboxes and it asks me to to type in the unique name which is Veritas but there is nothing else sharing that name. Yet it keeps saying that it won't work

NightRayn, the reason your response was removed was because you have to start a new thread for a new problem. These forums are monitored by people to make sure everyone is following the guidelines. This post will most likely be removed to. Just start a new thread and copy and paste what you just wrote.
