I have Exchange 5.5 running in an NT4.0 enviroment. I tried to install Outlook 2003 to connect to Exchange and was able to verify users name but was unable to connect to exchange server. I kept on getting he retry/offline/cancel message. I tried to put my netbios exchange server name in hosts file but that did not help either. Any suggestions please email me
 
I found another thread similar to mine and generated my own solution. Outlook 2003 is looking for a full qualified domain name. In my case my domain was tasusnt (note no .com). It was looking for servername.tasusnt.com which would not be resolvable. I solved it by adding the fully qualified name it generated in to the local hosts file.
