Hi, I have an exchange 2003 server in my domain that i cant remove. The server is offline, and wont be coming back online. If i go into system manager on the live exchange 2003 server, i can still see it in there? Is there anyway to forcibly remove it. Matt

Hi, Rightclick on the server in ESM and select remove. Leif
