DOCUMENT:Q224456 30-SEP-1999 [exchange] TITLE :XFOR: Properties Changed After Member Moves to Different Channel PRODUCT :Microsoft Exchange PROD/VER:winnt:5.5 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:exc55 EXC55SP3Fix ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== When a user leaves a channel and then joins a different channel on the same Microsoft Exchange Chat Service computer, the object identifier (OID) associated with his or her member record does not change. If you send a command that modifies a channel member's properties before he or she leaves the original channel, but the command is not received by the server until after the user joins the new channel, the user's properties are still modified. For example, if you use the MODE +O command to give operator privileges to a user in a channel, but the user moves to a different channel before the command is received by the server, the user is still given operator privileges when the command is received. RESOLUTION ========== To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Exchange Server version 5.5. For additional information, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: Q191014 XGEN: How to Obtain the latest Exchange Server 5.5 Service Pack The English version of this fix should have the following file attributes or later: Component: Chat Server +--------------------------+ | File name | Version | +--------------------------+ | Chatsvc.exe | 5.5.2503.0 | +--------------------------+ STATUS ====== Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.5. This problem was first corrected in Exchange Server 5.5 Service Pack 3. MORE INFORMATION ================ After you apply the fix, if the channel specified in the command is not the same as the channel that the user is currently a member of, the user's properties are not modified.
