One of our clients is using Exchange 2000, and we just installed it on a
second server for quick disaster recovery. We want the second server to be
completely identical, so when one goes down, network users can retreive their
mail from the other one instantaneously. I was able to set the public
mailboxes to automatically replicate to the other server, but I can't figure
out how (or if it's possible) to set up automatic replication of private
mailboxes. Can anyone help? Thanks.

You better implement a cluster.

yes there is a way...but not natively. You will need a 3rd party tool like
doubletake from NSI software, this will replicate the mailboxes and failover
to the other server http://www.doubletake.com/applications/exchange.aspx

Hi Drew,
You might want to look at Cemaphore's MailShadow (www.cemaphore.com)
product. It replicates at the MAPI-level, which provides mailbox-level DR
for selected users (or everyone) as well as failover/failback instantaneously
with no server recovery.
