Site Connector Problems

[daveleck]

I have been trying to set up a site connector between our two offices. Both have Exchange 5.5 servers up and running happily, but nothing I try will get a site connector working.

It tells me that I have insufficient access rights, but all the account set-ups are correct. There was a thread on this about a month ago with no resolution. Wondering if someone has something new to add...

Based on some KnowledgeBase articles, I am worried that my problem is because the organization names are different for our two sites. Is there any way to create a site connector between two servers with different organization names?

Thanks,

Nope. Site connectors are different sites in same organisation. In your case you will need to run either X400 or SMTP connectors. [sig]<p>Zel<br><a href=mailto:zel@zelandakh.co.uk>zel@zelandakh.co.uk</a><br><a href= > </a><br> [/sig]

Will that work just the same? Replication and everything else will function like a site connector?

Any drawbacks/limitations to going with one of the other connector types?

After doing some more reading, I guess I want to set up an x.400 connector. Unfortunately, I cannot figure out where/how to do this. Is this option tucked away somewhere? Can anyone help with a general procedure?

Thanks again,

In Exchange Administrator select File|New Other|X.400 Connector...

Here are some Q articles that should help you configure the X.400 connectors:
