Hi,

Is anyone else yet using Exchange Server 5.0 (Release Candidate 1), in
particular, are you using it for newsgroup up and downloading? If so, I
would be interested to know if you're having the same problems we are.

We've recently installed this product. Email works fine (as it did with
previous versions), however we have three major problems with
newsgroups:

1. the email connector will fire-off RAS, but the newsfeed connector
won't. In fact, if we configure the newsfeed connector for dial-up
connection it is impossible to get the Internet News Connector service
to start. If the service is already running, an internal error is
generated when this option is selected.

2. Using "connect through LAN" we eventually got the newsfeed to work
(from the provider to our server). We have still been unable to get a
message posted up to the provider though. The log file shows no POST
message, so the server is not even trying.
The newsgroups are all turned on for outgoing, and the permissions look
right. Is there anything hidden away that I might have missed?

3. Not so important, but the nntp control messages can't be actioned for
controls like CANCEL.

Any help, or pointers to more appropriate discussion pages, would be
very much appreciated.

Thanks,
