You must be getting an error somewhere…

…what are your logs telling you? Give us a little more detail as to what you did and what ANY error messages are indicating.

If you haven’t already, you might want to run the “Exchange Best Practices Analyzer” and the “Exchange Troubleshooting Assistant v1.1” — and see if you can gather any info from there. They can both be downloaded from Technet — if you don’t already have them of course.

(Sorry, after I posted — didn’t see where you already provided errors.)

How long ago did you apply the Service Pack?

In reply to Can’t Mount Public folders after Sp2 on Echserv2003\se

Not trying to be flippant or anything, but the reason for my asking, is that the Service Pack obviously has to update Active Directory as you know. And I have found a few times in the past, working with Public Folders (A pain IMO), AD can take a good while to promulgate the changes throughout the directory.

If you haven’t made any other changes other than applying the SP — and if it is not too critical — you might want to give AD a little more time before you make any further changes.

That has worked for me a few times.
