All, I have a single Exchange 2003 server with clients using Outlook 2003 in the same domain with no issues. However, some of our user's machines are joined to a remote domain which is over a VPN tunnel, but still connect Outlook to our Exchange server. Several times during the day, these users receive popup errors from the Outlook icon in the system tray. The error messages are usually "Outlook is trying to receive data from the Microsoft Exchange Server mail.domain.com". Sometimes the error message references the DCs instead of the Exchange server. How should I troubleshoot this issue? Thanks, Scallica

If not, this will be a problem outside of Outlook/Exchange too - put in a DC/GC/DNS/DHCP server there & set it up in its own AD site/subnet. Addressing the Outlook issue specifically, I'd also have the users use cached mode & RPC over HTTP.
