I am trying to do repair on database in exchange 2000 - can never get eseutil to work keep getting jet database errors....
help /s<file> - set streaming file name (default: NONE)
/t<db> - set temp. database name (default: TEMPINTEG*.EDB)
/f<name> - set prefix to use for name of report files
(default: <database>.integ.raw)
/i - bypass the database and streaming file mismatch err
or
/o - suppress logo
NOTES: 1) Integrity-check does not run database recovery. If a
database is in a "Dirty Shutdown" state it is strongly
recommended that before proceeding with an integrity-
check, recovery is first run to properly complete
database operations for the previous shutdown.
2) The /i option ignores the signature mismatch error if
the database and streaming file do not match each other.
