The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Problem setting up external Autodiscover in Exchange 2007

Asked by DanielFGarcia in Microsoft Enterprise, Exchange Email Server, Microsoft IIS Web Server

Tags: Exchange 2007, Autodiscover, OAB, Outlook anywhere

I've got Exchange 2007 up and running. Internal autodiscover works, Outlook anywhere works, I can send and receive emails etc. I've setup the dns name and bindings in IIS to support the https://autodiscover.mydomain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml url. When I go to that URL it
* Asks me to logon
* Gives me the output...

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <Autodiscover xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/autodiscover/responseschema/2006">
- <Response>
- <Error Time="16:24:13.7373545" Id="854507803">
  <ErrorCode>600</ErrorCode>
  <Message>Invalid Request</Message>
  <DebugData />
  </Error>
  </Response>
  </Autodiscover>

I have no idea if this is good or bad, but it least the url is responding.

My website is using a multi domain certificate that is using "Subject Alternative Name" (SAN). The CA that issued this certificate is trusted by my client machine.

When I go to setup a new outlook profile on a external machine, the following things happen...

- Click "Yes" to configure and email account
- I type in my name, email address and password then type next
- wait a bit... .... .... ....
- I get a login prompt where I type in my username in the form "NETBIOSNAME\username", enter my password, click remember my password then click OK
- wait a bit more... .... .... ....
- I then get the message "The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action"
- When I click OK I get a dialog box with the exchange settings. The server name in that dialog box is the internal server address.

I found a knowledge base article that refers to this error (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927481) but it refers to an exchange 2003 mailbox server. I only have 1 exchange server and it  is an exchange 2007 server
