lost Public Folder permissions and adding them fails
Hi, We're running Exchange 2007 SP1 (migrated from E2k, then upgraded from 2007 RTM) We use Public Folders daily and recently started having permission problems on one folder and its subfolders. I used to be delegated Owner rights on these folders but now only see two GUIDs in the Summary tab of the PF's properties page. The domain Administrator account and others that used to be able to administer this see the same thing.To make matters worse, I cannot seem to elevate my privileges. Making myself a PFadmin succeeded but had no effect using:Add-PublicFolderAdministrativePermission -Identity "<bad folder name>" -User <my username> -AccessRights AllExtendedRights -Inheritance SelfAndChildrenWhen I try to use Add-PublicFolderClientPermissions

Hello, Use PFDavAdmin, connect to public folder server,see the properties of PF and if you find Bad ACL thenright-click on it and fix it. Then add the permissions again if it doesnt show correct. Download: Microsoft Exchange Server Public Folder DAV-based Administration Tool

Hi, I downloaded the PFDAVAdmin, but when I connect to the PF server, I only see the top level folders. Clicking on either displays "Could not expand https://server/ExAdmin/Admin/DOMAIN.COM/public%20folders/:Name cannot begin with the '0' character, hexadecimal value 0x30. Line 1 Position 382."When I right click the folder, 'Folder Permissions' and 'Property Editor' are grayed out. All the Check... entries don't seem to perform any action. Thanks for your help!Jesse

Hi, This would be because of it requires .net 1.1 but higher version of .net is not installed, if you are running this on Exchange 2007 server then dont run it from there instead of that, on any of workstation with Windows XP install .net 1.1 framework and run pfdavadmin.
