How to recreate Vdirs for Exchange 2003 in IIS5

Hi,

I have a problem with an exchange 2003 server running on Windows 2000. Basically OMA has stopped working with the user seeing The specified module could not be found. In a browser, and their device not syncing. On the server, if we are lucky, we see ;

Event Type:        Warning
Event Source:    Server ActiveSync
Event Category:                None
Event ID:              3007
Date:                     23/10/2008
Time:                     14:38:05
User:                     DOMAIN\USER
Computer:          SERVER NAME
Description:
Exchange mailbox Server response timeout: Server: [FQDN goes here] User: [user email goes here]. Exchange ActiveSync Server failed to communicate with the Exchange mailbox server in a timely manner. Verify that the Exchange mailbox Server is working correctly and is not overloaded.  

Im pretty certain that the Virtual Dirs have become corrupt somehow as the entries in the application mapping section of the OMA virtual directory entry had simply vanished. While adding them back has got things moving we are now stuck where we are.

Theres loads of guides on how to recreate the v-dirs for II6 and Exchange 2003, but not II5 and Exchange 2003. Anyone know if I can use the ones for IIS6, which involve scripts and metabase things which may be specific to IIS6 ?

Of the metabase? Yes. I've tried restoring that, which is from 7 days ago, but the same thing happens. It could well be that this hasn't worked for a while as they have only just moved to Exchange push email from blackberrys using IMAP.
