Hi, I am trying to resolve an issue we have with a 5
workstation workgroup sharing the Client Contact List
always owned and housed on the local machine of one of the
workgroup, OS Win 2000/the 3 other machines have XP Pro.
We have a Dell server using Small Business 2003 version
5.2 (3790)and we are hosting our own domain with email on
the server via Exchange version 6.5.6944.0 and are running
Symantec Antivirus SBE 8.1.0.825 with Mail Security 4.0
(although Mail Security was just loaded and the issue
preceded the installation). We have a Power Vault 100T
DDS4 20/40GB internal TBU with Veritas Backup Exec Power
Suite version 9.1.4691 running on it. What the issue is:
how do we back up the Client List which is shown as a part
of the Public Folders in Outlook 2003 on all our systems,
but when we go to manually do a backup and look for the
Client List, it is not there to select. There is a
subfolder and another List that is shown under the same
public folder and they are seen but not our Client List
which preceded the updating of Outlook from 2000 to
2003.The Client List icon shows a vcard rather than a
folder. Does this identify how Windows sees the
information? Is there a way to select it for backup? If
not, what suggestion might you have for backing up this
Client List? We have 3 different lists in Outlook that
need to be backed up and the same apply to all. Would
upgrading to XP Pro provide additional resources? I would
prefer to backup all lists along with that days tape
backup.
A secondary question has to do with how each workstation
receives the Client List into their Outlook.. the number
of items is different in each. Some are different by only
10 items and some many more. Why would this be if the
owner of the list shared it out to the group, should it
not be an identical list? Any help on these issues would
be greatly appreciated.
