Re: The server is not operational

Hello,

One cause for this error is a misspelling of the directory path. Could
you post it here?

Another thing to consider is, that the sAMAccountName may not be unique
in a multidomain environment. There may be a fabrikam\johndoe as well as
a contoso\johndoe.

See http://www.infinitec.de/exchange/howtos/findusermultiad.aspx for
more information.

Greetings,
Henning Krause
