Hey Guys Is there anyway to export a list of all the public folders that are on an exchange 5.5 server?? Thanks! Mike
You could do a directory export in the exchange administrator program. Since every PF in EX5.5 is mail enabled you should get a list of all the PF's. But when you do it, don't forget to select that hidden recipients should also be exported, since PF's are by default hidden from the addressbook...

Ok, sorry should have been more detailed. I am trying to do a comparison of public folders. It looks like some have been replicated to an exchange 2000 box we have running, but there are so many that to go through all of them would take forever. So I am trying to get just a list of what we have on our 5.5 box and run a comparison of the exported list I have from our 2000 box. The directory export from the exchange admin seems to pull that information from the GAL so that would include everything from both servers.

This will not include system objects Why dont you replicate all the folders to the new server and then disable replication on the 5.5 server.

Ok, I see... :-) You should be able to export a list in EX5.5 Admin. If I remember correctly... :-) In EX5.5 Admin navigate to the server object where you want to get the list of. Expand the Public Folder Store. There should be a node where you can see all the replicas which are on the server. Actually I can't remember the name of the node... In the menu there should be an entry to export a list. This will give you a csv listing of the screen... Hope this helps! And sorry for the vague description - it's a little while since I was working with EX5.5 Admin... :-) -- Christian Schindler MCSA / MCSE / MCT / IPMA-D Senior Consultant NTx BackOffice Consulting Group Austria mailto:cns@ntx.at "Mike" wrote in message news:CCB71594-B772-4887-80FE-BD7E088BA1A5@microsoft.com... > Ok, sorry should have been more detailed.

Yeah. Actually we decided on adding a 2003 exchange box and using pfmigrate and force everything over to the 2003 server. Thats where I was heading anyway but I think everyone knows the game called pollitics! Thanks guys!
