Hi, for a better understanding: You installed the Exchange on a DC? Is this also a GC? Could you post ipconfig /all ? Walter

Me salvaste con tu aportacin. Me funciono perfectamente. Gracias.

I had a similar situation, I changed the $global:AdminSessionADSettings.ViewEntireForest = $true It resets the default domain.it worked fine after ... Regards Kamol http://ksagwan.blogspot.com

When i go to remove the domainname\administrator profile, the remove/delete button is greyed out, but I'm loggin in with my personal account, which is also a domain and exchange admin, and local server admin... Any ideas on how to remove the profile with it being disabled as an option?

I am in same Situation. Error accoured in the Administrator Account, after that Account has first-time installed the Virtuell Server 2005. Any idea to fix the problem with Administrator heaving the trouble ? Second Admin can open Exchange Console without problems.

Yes i found this to, is there any resolution to this?

I dont know why but what I am doing to prevent this I am loged on as a nother user and run the exchange console using the Run as and till now its working perfect

I raised a case with MS PSS in the end, we have managed to fix this by uninstalling update roll up 5. so we are now running on update roll up 4 which works fine for us. They said they wanted to re-apply 5 and some dot net hot fix but i told them we didnt want to as the server is working for our client now.

Hi I am migrating Domino mail files to Exchange 2007 server. There're some problem appears as following: 1.)

'Sent Item' is not display during migration using Microsoft OutLook 2003

Mein Lsung am Win 2003 R2 mit Exchange 2007 SP1 war: 1. Einen anderen Administrator erstellen (zum Beispiel SUBAD) und alle Rechte geben, in die Gruppen einloggen etc.. 2. Als SUBAD einloggen 3. In der Festplatte die in das Dokumente und Einstellungen Ordner. Rechtsklick auf den Administrator. 4. Nimm dem Administrator alle Rechte an seinem eigenen Ordner, bernimm als SUBAD die Besitzrechte des Administrator Ordners. 5. Neustarten des Systems 4. Wieder als SUBAD einloggen. 6. Den Ordner Administrator.domne so behandeln wie Nummer 3 und 4 7. Lsche den Ordner Administrator 8. Reboot 9. Als SUBAD einloggen und den Administratir.Domne Ordner lschen 10. Abmelden und als Administrator einloggen 11. Den SUBAD lsschen Danach geht mein Exchange Verwaltungstool wieder,

Thanks for your tip , i I depressed . Fix Too !!!It's a strange problem !

Hi, i searched for this problem right now and i wanted to make this subadmin. i wanted to use the same admin password, but it didnt accept it. than i realized, that the general passoword settings dont allow such a short password. so i changed the password of the administrator user! and now i canaccess everything!!! try it!

Hi, I had the same problem on SBS2008 RC build 6001. Solution was create to create another administrator account and/or remove administrator profile and recreate it true logon. THX
