Outlook is trying to retrieve data from the Microsoft Exchange Server...

I was reading that it could be a global catalog problem, or a nic card problem. I've pinged the nic card several times today, no problems. How big can a global catalog be, before you start seeing performance issues...like this error message?

So far the troubleshooting assisting is telling me it won't run on my version of Exchange 5.5 and Server 2000. I've noticed that there may be performance issues with the disk drives, but it's not enough to explain the error messages. I'll try the BPA and see what that comes up with.

Yeah, I'm hoping the company will allow us to upgrade this year. We have 8 servers and only one has Win 2003 on it. I just started here a few weeks ago, there is a great deal of room for improvement.
