Err Msg: Cannot Find the File RNETWORK.GLB on the Server

• Microsoft Windows 95

SYMPTOMS

When you are downloading the post office address book, you receive the following error message:

Cannot find the file RNETWORK.GLB on the Server

CAUSE

The RNETWORK.GLB file is either missing or damaged when you try to download it from a Microsoft Mail 3.x post office. This error message does not occur when you try to download an address book from a Windows for Workgroups or Windows 95 post office.

RESOLUTION

The Microsoft Mail administrator should run the ADMIN.EXE tool to set up a remote user and run Regenerate. This creates the RNETWORK.GLB file. For more information, please consult your Microsoft Mail documentation.

MORE INFORMATION

Microsoft Exchange in Windows 95 requires that the RNETWORK.GLB file be present to download the address book, as does the Microsoft Mail remote client.

RNETWORK.GLB is a file containing the global address list. This is a list containing all the users from all the post offices on the network. The list does not contain external post office addresses (such as those using gateway addressing).

When the RNETWORK.GLB file is present at the post office, Windows 95 sets up a mini post office in the MSREMOTE.SFS subdirectory for the downloaded copy of the post office list. After downloading the RNETWORK.GLB file, Microsoft Exchange explodes the file into the MSREMOTE.SFS directory, creating the local copy of the post office list. This list needs to be updated periodically.
