Hi,

Our outlooks seem to be slow when communicating to our
exchange server.

I've noticed there's an option called "full-text indexing"
found under "servers" right click your server ->
properties ->"full-text indexing".

Mine is set to "low" could this be the cause?

FYI: I've set the primary DNS on every workstation, to the
IP address of my SBS server, including the g/w ip address.

They're all outlook 2000's on windows 2000.
Vert strange!

Have you checked the binding order on the server and confirmed that the
local area network card is on top?
Also, in the TCP/IP properties of all enabled server cards, do you have the
preferred DNS set to the server's internal IP address?
I typically leave the alternate DNS server blank but make sure the DNS
Forwarders are enabled in the properties of the server in the DNS Console.
