SYMPTOMS
========

When you try to run directory synchronization (dirsync) between Exchange Server
and SNADS Verimation MEMO 6.3, dirsync stops responding. The Job Control
Language (JCL) job that is run on the host system abends.

One-way only dirsync, from Exchange Server to MEMO, does not work. The Exchange
Server Recipient container is updated with MEMO recipient updates but MEMO does
not contain the Exchange Server recipient addresses.

CAUSE
=====

The JCL on the current Exchange Server Enterprise 5.5 CD host includes old PARMS
(parameters) that are not supported in MEMO 6.3.

RESOLUTION
==========

version 5.5. For additional information, click the following article number to

Pack 3.

MORE INFORMATION
