SYMPTOMS

When you are running ESEUTIL /g on the directory store or information store, the following error may occur:

This occurs when InocuLAN anti-virus software is installed on a computer running Windows NT Server 4.0 with Service Pack 3 and running Exchange 5.5. InocuLAN installs a file system filter that disables the JET engine ESE97 from addressing database files.

    NOTE: Disabling InocuLAN does not resolve this problem.
