I would first try and ping the server from the client and make sure that you are getting a response. Make sure that you are using the Windows 2000 DNS Servers if Win2k. If Windows 95, make sure you are pointing it to a WINS server or edit the LMHOSTs file on the client with the correct information. Next I would delete all the profiles, I have had it where some profiles just will not work quite right. Readd the profile and try it again. I would try just the base profile with nothing added to it. Do not change the Logon Network Authentication type or anything. I would also make sure that you are able to logon to the Windows 2000 domain correctly with the client!

I would also check in Active Directory what the Display name is as that's what it's going to appear in the address list and also whether you have inadvertantly ticked to hide the entry from the address list. Please don't be offended if this seems childlishly simple/obvious - I've done it before (but that's just the sort of Computer Officer I am I guess...)

Good luck!

Does the user have e-mail addresses generated automatically? If you open ESM then go under Recipients and GAL -> Default. Preview the GAL. Do you see the user? If so check name should work and it isn't Exchange. If GAL doesn't show anyone then the RUS is probably broke. Dan
